Hi! I’m Genna – the face and name behind the brand
Passion. Purpose. Empowerment.
You’ll rarely meet someone more passionate about beauty, education, and business. After over a decade in the beauty industry—providing high-quality treatments, building a loyal client base, winning awards with some of the industry’s top brands, and teaching hundreds of students—I’ve found a way to merge my love for beauty with my calling to educate.
Today, I’m proud to be an award-winning lash artist, a recognised educator, and a fully booked beauty therapist. But my journey wasn’t always easy—and that’s exactly why I’m so driven to support others. I only wish I had someone like me to look up to when I was just starting out.
Growing up, academics weren’t my strength. I struggled in school and was placed in lower-tier classes, which left me feeling embarrassed and unseen. I often stayed quiet in group settings, fearing I’d be wrong or judged. While maths and English didn’t come naturally, I had a natural talent for creativity, people, and business.
Raised by a single mum who gave her all, it wasn’t until I was 25 that I found my spark—when she paid for my first beauty course. That moment changed everything. I finally felt like I knew who I was and who I was meant to be.
Since then, I’ve grown my skills, built a thriving six-figure business, hired a team of four, and created a client waitlist I could’ve only dreamed of.
And now?
Now, I get to combine my passion for beauty and education to help others believe in themselves, tap into their potential, and succeed—regardless of where they’ve come from.
