Helping women look & feel beautiful and confident at every stage of life

Hello, I'm Megan

 

I know firsthand how easy it is to lose yourself in the chaos of everyday life. As a Mum of two boys, I’ve been there... juggling family, work, and everything in between while putting my own needs last.

But here’s what I’ve learnt… you deserve to look & feel good in your skin.

 

And makeup? It’s not about changing who you are... it’s about enhancing what’s already there and feeling confident in your own skin.

With over 25 years in the industry, I’ve worked with thousands of women who have felt overlooked by the beauty world.

 

My passion is helping everyday women just like you understand makeup in a way that feels effortless and, most importantly empowering.​

After owning beauty salons across Brisbane, I now run my private makeup studio located at the Brisbane Beauty Collective in Holland Park specialising in private and group makeup lessons, formal & event makeup, and personalised makeup consultations.

As an Issada Cosmeceuticals stockist, I’m passionate about skin-loving, mineral-based makeup that enhances your features while supporting long-term skin health.

I’ve been honoured with industry awards including Makeup Artist of the Year 2022 and Emerging Expert 2023, and recently finished 2025 with four Issada Awards including:

 

🏆 ISSADA Stockist of the Year for Makeup 2025 – Winner
🏆 ISSADA Social Savvy Award 2025 – Winner
 

The real reward?

 

Watching my clients gain confidence through makeup that feels simple, empowering, and truly them.

Beauty doesn’t need to be complicated... let’s make it fun & easy!

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

"Beautiful and natural makeup"

"Growing up I never ‘learnt’ how to apply makeup, as I draw closer to 40 I knew it was time to learn these skills. I completed a makeup lesson with Megan and it was brilliant. Megan is full of knowledge and is able to explain in simple steps how to apply beautiful and natural make up. The workbook provided is a valuable ‘take away’ and I still refer to it. The follow up Megan also provides is wonderful. Thank you for such a wonderful lesson Megan."
- Jayde 

I adore what I do because there is no better feeling than seeing or hearing how confident and happy my clients look and feel.

 

I love being able to help women banish their fears around makeup and embrace their newfound skills.

Together let’s create your own makeup journey
