Having had a career as a freelance beauty consultant for over 10 years, I have an understanding of how a person's appearance significantly impacts their overall well-being. People use treatments as a form of self-care, and appointments often become almost therapy-like. 

I became driven to progress my knowledge to more long-term results-driven treatments, and in keeping true to my skin treatments background, aesthetics became seemingly interesting.

Becoming an aesthetic practitioner allowed me to acquire an even more extensive knowledge of theoretical anatomy, physiology, and pathology, with safety at its core, so I have great confidence in treating people's concerns on a deeper level. It's so satisfying to help people not only look amazing but also feel great.

 

As a skin specialist, the learning never ends. I regularly attend advanced courses and seminars throughout the year, as it’s essential to me to provide the very best treatments while continually expanding my knowledge and skills. My focus when treating a client is to look deeper — to understand the core of their health and wellbeing. Stress, anxiety, and overall health play a significant role in how our skin presents, and these are key factors I consider when determining how, or even if, I proceed with treatment.

​

My approach is minimal; a person should look and feel like who they really are, so it was second nature to me when curating Skynn that the approach had to focus on wellness and natural balance in beauty.

 

The way we see ourselves has a significant impact on our mental health. I wanted to create a space where you not only look great but also feel great. Treatments are an excellent way to improve well-being and practice wellness. You will often hear me use the word 'balance' rather than 'enhance' when performing cosmetic treatments, as a treatment should be used to bring harmony to facial proportions. By approaching aesthetics in this way, I can help the day-to-day quality of a client's life.  If I can teach my clients that the skin concern that is affecting their well-being can be treated and they still look like their natural selves, then that is my mission.

​

I created Skynn to demonstrate that treatments can look natural and to shed light on the often-overlooked yet essential aspect of beauty that is regenerative, healing, and necessary for wellness.
