Award Winning Makeup Artist for Women Over 40
I was awarded Makeup Artist of the Year at the NI Local Women Awards.
I specialise in working with mature skin and have built a loyal client base of women over 40 who want to feel confident, natural and like themselves again.
If you feel that makeup looks heavy, settles into lines or doesn’t suit your features any more, you are not alone.
I understand how skin changes and how to adapt makeup so it works with you, not against you.
Alongside makeup applications, I also teach you how to apply your own makeup in a way that suits your face so you leave feeling confident and in control.

Concealer is one of the most commonly used makeup products — and also one of the most misunderstood. Over the years, working with hundreds of women, I’ve seen how often concealer is applied in a way that actually makes the under-eye area look heavier, drier, or more textured, rather than brighter and more refreshed.
In this guide, I’ll walk you through simple, practical steps to help you apply concealer in a way that enhances your eyes and creates a natural, well-rested look. These are the same techniques I use every day with my clients. Small adjustments that can make a beautiful difference.
Having working with hundreds of women over the years, I’ve noticed the same makeup habits appearing again and again — many of which can unintentionally age the face.
In this guide, I am sharing some of the most common mistakes I see, along with the techniques and small adjustments that can make a huge difference. My aim is to help you create every day polished makeup which looks fresher, softer and more flattering for the face you have today.
If your eye makeup seems to disappear the second you open your eyes, you are not doing anything wrong. Hooded eyes change how makeup sits, blends, and appears on the eye. As we get older, the lid can become heavier, softer, and more textured too. Techniques that once worked may suddenly stop working altogether.
Inside this guide, you will learn how to:
Make your eyes appear more lifted and open
Stop eyeshadow disappearing into the crease
Apply eyeliner without closing the eye
Create definition without heaviness
Work with texture instead of fighting it
Choose flattering placement for mature hooded eyesEvery step is designed specifically for women over 40.
This guide was created with one simple goal: to help you rediscover the joy of makeup. We aren’t here to mask who you are or hide the beautiful story your face tells. Instead, we are going to focus on how to work with your skin’s natural evolution to create a base that looks fresh, hydrated, and luminous.
In this guide, we will strip away the complicated trends and focus on the fundamentals that matter most: smoothing, hydration, the right textures, and strategic application. By the end, you will have the confidence to create a flawless, glowing base that makes you feel like the best version of yourself.
