The Founder
"Success is making those who trust in you feel beautiful"
Ivonne Sanchez, a first-generation Canadian, was born in St. Petersburg, Russia. Her family emigrated from Cuba in 1992 in search of a better life. Growing up in Canada, Ivonne learned the value of hard work and the importance of community.
Her passion for fashion, boutique skincare, and cosmetic brands inspires her to provide the same experience to others through her Permanent Makeup and Skincare services and retail products.
Despite being a busy mother of two in a blended family, Ivonne spent ten years working in the corporate legal industry. She believes that self-care is a crucial aspect of our well-being and thus curates highly effective beauty products and services that are user-friendly and accessible.
