Beauty is pleasure.

When I started my practice, I set out on a mission to flip the script from “beauty is pain” to beauty is pleasure. I feel it is my utmost responsibility to have every person who walks through my doors leave feeling better about themself, not worse. To feel nurtured and cared for, not with a laundry list of things we all “should” be doing, and a new set of things to feel insecure about.

The beauty industry is a business that thrives off of our insecurities, and wants to convince us that we need x, y, and z to be beautiful and radiant. But true radiance that shines from the inside-outwards is something that cannot be purchased. It is something that is honed the deeper we connect with ourselves and with others. And it starts with finding ways to fill our own cups.

It is an honor and a blessing to be able to help you fills yours.
