Briony's Vision and Story
Welcome! I'm Briony, and my lifelong passion for all things skin-related has driven my career. I began my journey as a beauty therapist before the birth of my children. I quickly discovered my love for helping people regain their confidence and teaching them simple yet effective ways to improve their skin health. This passion led me to further my education and skills to provide my clients with the best possible experience.
My Journey
Recognising the need to deepen my understanding of skin health, I embarked on an educational journey that included becoming a dermal clinician, obtaining my laser license, and studying for both an enrolled and a bachelor's degree in nursing. I also completed a postgraduate certificate in cosmetic nursing. These qualifications have equipped me with the advanced skills and knowledge to elevate my treatments, combining various therapies to achieve a well-rounded, natural-looking aesthetic for my clients.
Let's Connect - Workshops, Training & Mentoring
I am always excited to connect with like-minded professionals and individuals passionate about skin health. If you're interested in learning more about my workshops and mentoring programs, or if you simply want to discuss how we can work together, please reach out. I look forward to the opportunity to support you on your journey to healthier, more confident skin.
My Expertise
This initiative includes workshops for teenagers struggling with skin issues, providing parents with valuable tips and tricks to support their teens in achieving healthy skin and building confidence.
Additionally, I offer mentoring and training days for new cosmetic nurses who want to incorporate skincare into their practice. My goal is to empower others in the industry with the tools and knowledge to enhance their practices and support their clients effectively.
