Beautiful results achieved with brow lamination. 🤎

I feel like brow lamination has gained a bit of a bad reputation over the last few years, because we so often see one particular style associated with it. But the treatment itself is actually much more versatile than that.

Lamination temporarily makes the brow hairs more flexible and manageable, which means they can be redirected and styled into a shape that better suits the natural brow.

This before & after is such a good example. Swipe right across for the before.

My client already had lovely, full brows, but the lamination allowed me to redirect the hairs, creating a more lifted and defined appearance to improve the symmetry and make the most of the brow hair she already had. I then tinted and threaded them to help tidy and refine the finished shape.

I think the important thing about these, is that they still look natural.

Laminated brows don’t have to be styled vertically upwards. They can be worn softer and sleeker or more fluffy, depending on your natural brows and the look you prefer. The style is not fixed when you leave the appointment. All lamination does, is change the hair density so that your natural eyebrow shape can be enhanced and make them more manageable to style. You also do not need to have lots of hair in order to get a good result. Infact lamination, can also help with sparse brows.

Brow lamination isn’t about creating the same eyebrow shape on everyone. It’s about enhancing and working with the eyebrows you already have. 🤎

If you have any questions about the treatment, please drop me a DM. A patch test is required at least 24 hours before the treatment.

5 things I’d never do as a skin therapist and why 👇🏽

1. Sleep in my make-up
When you’re sleeping your skin is awake repairing its self over night. Leaving make-up, SPF, oil and daily build up sitting on your skin can contribute to congestion and irritation. No matter how tired I am. My make-up always comes off.

2. Use face wipes to cleanse my face
They might remove some of what you can see, but I wouldn’t consider this as a proper cleanse. I always prefer an oil or a balm cleanser in my double cleanse routine.

3. Skipping SPF
This is the biggest one for me. UV exposure is the number 1 cause of premature aging. Even on cloudy days, UV rays is still there. Regardless whether it’s sunny or not, as soon as daylight appears, your skin is exposed to UV rays.

Over exfoliating
4. More exfoliation doesn’t mean better skin. Over doing acids, scrubs and resurfacing products can comprise the skin barrier and leave it sensitised, dehydrated and reactive.

5. Introducing lots of new products because they’re trending on Tik Tok.
Skin doesn’t need everything thrown at it straight away. Introducing products gradually allows you to see how your skin responds and if something causes a reaction, it’s much easier to work out what did it.

Korean Lash Lift

Summer can affect the skin greatly, particularly with increased UV exposure and with the beautiful weather we’ve had in the U.K recently, our skin has see plenty of it. Even when you’ve been extra careful with SPF, it can take its toll.

Increased UV exposure, heat, travel and changes in routine can leave the skin dehydrated, sensitised and showing more visible pigmentation.

September is the perfect time to shift the focus from protecting to repairing.

Focusing on:
✨ Restoring hydration
✨ Strengthening the skin barrier
✨ Targeting pigmentation and uneven skin tone
✨ Refining texture
✨ Reintroducing more corrective treatments

Autumn is where we start rebuilding, healthier stronger skin after summer. 🤎

I love getting messages like this. 🥹🤎

This is exactly why I’m so passionate about treating skin as a journey and not just a one off facial.

Understanding your skin, choosing the right treatments and home care and seeing those changes over time. ✨

So grateful to receive feedback like this. 🤎
