Skin Synergy

One of the things I hear all the time is...
"People keep asking me if I'm angry." 😡
"Everyone thinks I look grumpy, but I don't feel grumpy!" 😠
Sometimes choosing to get muscle relaxant treatments is not about getting rid of wrinkles or trying to look younger. Sometimes it's simply about marrying how you feel on the side with what you're projecting to the world.
Over time, the muscles we use to frown or squint can start to leave us looking a little tired, worried, or cross, even when we're feeling happy and relaxed.
A few carefully placed injections can soften those stronger expressions without changing who you are. You'll still look like you... just a little more like the version you feel on the inside. 🥰
For me, the best results are the ones where people notice you look refreshed, but they can't quite put their finger on why. 👌

A little late to post, but I recently had the privilege of attending the Skin Cancer Summit in windy Wellington.

It was an inspiring few days of learning, networking, sharing ideas, and a little bit of fun along the way. Spending time with such a passionate, multidisciplinary group of health professionals reinforced just how important collaboration is in improving skin cancer outcomes.

I came away feeling more inspired than ever about the impact nurses can have in improving equity, access, and early detection within our communities. I’m looking forward to putting what I’ve learned into practice and continuing to advocate for accessible, high-quality skin cancer care.

These are all photos of me 😳 The top two were taken around six years ago, and the bottom two are me now.

While we all naturally change over time, I truly believe one of the biggest differences has been consistently prioritising my skin health. My approach hasn’t been about chasing perfection or dramatically changing my appearance, it’s been about caring for my skin, supporting its health, and investing in it over time.

Consistent, quality skincare, regular skin-boosting treatments, and a little sprinkle of tox ☺️ have helped me maintain healthy, hydrated, glowing skin while still looking like me.

Skin health is a journey, and consistency really does make a difference. You don’t need to wait for the “perfect time” to start, small steps taken now can make a meaningful difference over the years.

There’s no time like the present to begin prioritising your skin health. If you’d like to chat about a personalised approach for your skin, I’d love to help 🥰

✨ Brighten, Hydrate & Refresh Your Under-Eyes ✨

Tired-looking eyes? Fine lines, crepey skin, or that hollow, dehydrated appearance under the eyes can be difficult to treat with skincare alone.

Sunekos® Under Eye Skin Booster works by stimulating your skin's natural production of collagen and elastin while deeply hydrating the delicate under-eye area. The result? Smoother, healthier-looking skin with improved texture, hydration, and a refreshed appearance.

💧 Helps improve fine lines and crepey skin
💧 Restores hydration from within
💧 Supports natural collagen and elastin production
💧 Suitable for the delicate under-eye area
💧 Minimal downtime

Rather than changing the way you look, Sunekos helps improve skin quality, creating a healthier, more refreshed version of you.

If your eyes are giving away how tired you're feeling, Sunekos could be the gentle boost your skin has been waiting for.

📩 Message me to find out if Sunekos is right for you or to book a consultation.

Kudos to the great team at for taking such a proactive approach to skin cancer detection, prevention, and staff wellbeing 🙌🏼
Spending the day out in workplaces doing skin checks is something I genuinely love being part of. ☀️

Outdoor workers face an increased occupational risk when it comes to skin cancer, which is why regular screening and early detection are so important. It’s encouraging to see more workplaces placing real value on staff wellbeing through proactive health and safety programs that support prevention, education, and screening.

I feel proud to play a small part in helping make skin checks more accessible for these hardworking teams. Prevention and early detection really do matter 🙌🏼

It’s needling season!!! 🤩😩 A real love-hate relationship… but we all know it’s worth it 🙌🏼

Dermal needling is best done through the cooler, less sunny months, making now the perfect time to start. Whether you’re wanting to bank collagen, smooth texture, soften acne scarring, or tackle that stubborn pigmentation build-up from summer — this is your sign ✨

It’s definitely not a relaxing facial 😅 but if you’re about the business and serious about skin results, book in and let’s get it done 👏🏼
