  • We offer both a luxury mobile service and appointments from our private, purpose-designed studio in central Wānaka.

  • PLEASE READ OUR PRE-PREPARTION ADVICE FOR THE DAY HERE

  • I do exclusive bridal spray tans, so I can ensure your makeup and tan match perfectly for a seamless, natural finish.

    I can recommend some fantastic places for nail care and provide valuable advice on dermaplaning, facials, various treatments, and brow shaping, everything you need to enhance your beauty routine.

    Let's plan to ensure your entire look is stunning in photos!

    Always use SPF and stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water. Wanaka is very dry, and I often notice that clients arrive with dry lips, especially after a flight. Keep lip balm with you at all times, and consider using a lip mask at night for extra moisture. :)

  • Once we have received your enquiry and confirmed our availability, we will prepare and send you a personalised formal quote through Xero.

    To secure your date, the Xero quote must be accepted, the non-refundable deposit paid, and the booking form completed and returned.

    Once all three steps have been completed, your booking will be entered into our Google Calendar and you will receive a calendar notification confirming your booking.

    Please note that your date is not secured or confirmed until the quote has been accepted, the deposit received, the booking form returned, and your Google Calendar confirmation has been sent.
