Rewind to 2002 when it was decided I would study Makeup... even though it still took me another 3 years to enrol into the course that would change the direction of my life, here I am 18 years later and still at it, and might I add still absolutely loving it!
The greatest thing about my career choice way back then, was that I would be helping others feel good about themselves, and in -turn educating myself about how to improve my self confidence through makeup also. As the years have gone by my awareness of self, knowledge and experience make me not only super confident as a Makeup Artist, but in myself as a person, and being able to run my own business doing what I love. Still can not believe my luck!
This year on February 5th 2023 Something happened that would again change the direction and course of my life forever, and her name is Luella. My Partner and I welcomed Luella into the World, bright eyed and bushy tailed, about what it would be like to be parents in our 40's and so far its been a beautiful ride!
My life has always been about my career and Makeup, and I am glad I had such intense focus on it for 18 years without any interruption. But what I'm so happy to have discovered ever since having Luella, is I can have my cake, and eat it too.
Although my choices to follow this career path certainly never revolved around a family lifestyle at the age of 22, its safe to say at 40, I have come full circle and literally get to have it all!
As I have had some time off to care for Luella since she was born, returning to my makeup bookings are looking to be so complimentary to my life as a Mum and is why I will continue on this path for some time yet! I mean I may already have Luella booked in for her School ball, hair and makeup in 2041.
My Makeup Bookings will be open again on my website from the 1st July, so get in contact and book online early with your weddings, events and special occasions as soon as you can!
So excited to meet all my new clients and catch up with all my old friends!
