ABOUT
I did not start out in the skin industry, in fact I am so far from your typical ‘beauty girl’.
My passion for skin came as a result of my own struggles with adult acne. I knew I didn’t need a dermatologist, but I found myself needing some help. So I saved up the money to go see a reputable skin therapist.
Unfortunately my experience did not meet my, perhaps naive, expectations. I received a facial but left without any advice or direction of how to resolve my acne. I felt more lost than ever.
I decided I needed to find some answers myself, and so began my journey into the world of skin. It took time and understanding but I cleared my acne and now feel confident in my make-up free skin. That’s not to say my skin is flawless or perfect, I still have bad skin days but they are infrequent and I have such a deep respect for the skin (and the body as a whole) that I don’t let it phase me. I know it will pass and I know how to support the healing process.
Over the last 5 years I have spent countless hours reading books & blogs, listening to podcasts, taken 1 day workshops, completed my VTCT level 3 qualifications and this year started a Nutritional Practitioner qualification. Now, I want to use what I know so far to help others.
I am still early in my skin therapist journey but I already know there will never come a time where I’ve finished learning. I will continue my education in the science of skin and up skilling in supporting treatments, for the rest of my career (and probably beyond).
I would love to share my present & future knowledge with you; to be a part of your skin health journey and have you be a part of my skin therapist journey.
