Exploring kinder ways to care for skin, self, and the world around us.
In my world, beauty is more than skin deep — it’s a thread that connects how we feel, how we treat ourselves, and the choices we make every day. This belief is guiding me as I align my work as a make-up artist, skincare specialist, and writer with the values I’m embracing in my own life. My aim is to create a kind and conscious space — a place where beauty services, products, and conversations all reflect compassion, mindfulness, and authenticity, and where everyone feels seen, heard, and beautiful in their own skin.
Over time, I’ve come to see more clearly what truly matters to me — caring for myself, my family, and the environment we share. I can see the ways to live more gently, to slow down, and to weave mindfulness into the everyday, but it’s still a work in progress as I try to adopt better habits and make more intentional choices.
I’ve been a vegetarian for many years, but in recent times, I’ve been leaning into a plant-first approach, valuing natural alternatives that I hope, in time, to cultivate and source more sustainably. It felt like a natural progression for this way of thinking to flow into the products I use — so that the ethos of what goes into my body also matches what goes on it. Looking back, I realise I was naïve in thinking I was making better choices than I was, and so now I’m putting the work in to educate myself, moving towards only cruelty-free products and exploring lower-toxic, more sustainable options.
Countryside living has brought me closer to this ideal, though it’s the simple routines that help it take root. Although not yet instinctive, it’s the simple and valuable practices that I know can take root with a shift in mindset — early mornings scented with fresh herbs, walks that change with the seasons, and quiet moments that remind me everything has its own pace. I’m learning how to embrace the art of self-care and make these small, mindful rituals a more natural part of my everyday life, embracing better habits that honour both my body and the world around me.
I’m still exploring what cruelty-free and more conscious living look like for me — learning, testing, and discovering as I go. Along the way, I’ll share the products, treatments, and practices that feel aligned, honest, and kind, so this space becomes a place to grow together.
This is where my passions meet — mindful beauty, thoughtful living, and a love for nature — shared softly, with the hope of inspiring others to find their own version of a conscious, compassionate life.
Thanks for joining me on the journey.
