I am a creative person and have always pursued jobs that allow me to indulge in this passion. In my early career, I was a secondary school art teacher, then a layout artist in a newspaper. My career then took me in a different direction and led me to pharmacy and I have worked in the pharmacy industry for almost 20 years. Initially, I was a consultant for prestige brands Dior and YSL. At that time, my passion was makeup and it allowed me to get creative with various makeup looks for my clients.

This varied and interesting career path has combined my love of creativity, beauty and helping others. It has also given me a great attention to detail and problem solving skills, which I use to come up with the best solution to any of your skin concerns.

Now, my passion is in the natural skin care space, particularly in creating tailored skin care regimens for people with dry, sensitive skin. There’s nothing more rewarding than finding the right product that will help you with your skin concerns.

I personally love to use and recommend the products from the Jojoba range, as well as La Roche-Posay and Avene. These ranges have solved many of my skin and maskne problems and I know that they can help you with yours.

My skin care tips for acne prone skin:

I highly recommend the Avene Cleanance Comedomed Anti-Blemish Concentrate. I have had issues with ance all my adult life and finally found the solution with this product. It is an anti-blemish concentrate which you apply morning and night. It is suitable for teenagers and those with sensitive skin. I love that it reduces the appearance of blemishes, but also balances oily skin. It also has moisturising benefits - remember that oily skin needs hydration too. But don’t just take my word for it, I have received excellent customer feedback on this product too.

In my spare time I love drawing, craft, card making and cooking and enjoy spending time with my husband, adult children and grandchildren.
