You may want fresher skin, more defined features or a healthy-looking glow, but still feel nervous about booking or unsure which treatment is right for you.
At The Parkgate Studio, beauty is calm, personal and never about making you look artificial.
Beauty here includes natural facials, wearable lash and brow treatments and beautifully believable spray tanning, all tailored around your skin, features, lifestyle and comfort.
No intimidating trends. No pressure to look like somebody else. Just knowledgeable advice, carefully selected products and results that still feel like you.
Lashes and brows can make the face appear brighter, more balanced and more rested without adding heavy makeup.
Every treatment is adjusted to your colouring, natural growth, features and preferred level of definition.
Emma Brows combine precise shaping and colour, with regular, hybrid and softer brow-relaxation options available.

For the greatest low-maintenance difference, combine a Korean lash lift and tint with Hybrid Emma Brows.
A professional tan should make you look healthier, warmer and more rested.
I use MoroccanTan because the formulas develop into a beautiful, believable colour and fade gradually and evenly. We will talk through your natural colouring, occasion and preferred depth before deciding.
Clients book spray tans before weddings, holidays and weekends away, but also for networking events, seminars, presentations and other occasions when they want an extra boost of confidence.
For a one-day event like a wedding or party, I usually recommend tanning two days beforehand. For a holiday, the day before travelling often works well.
Single appointments and the two-tans-for-£35 offer are available at The Parkgate Studio.
Mobile tanning may also be available subject to a minimum call-out fee.
Many of my facial clients arrive after months or even years of sensitivity, dryness or recurring reactions, often feeling confused by conflicting advice and surrounded by more skincare than they really need.
My approach is natural, non-invasive and guided by a detailed understanding of ingredients, the skin barrier and the delicate balance of the skin’s microbiome.
Rather than adding more, I help you identify what may be aggravating your skin and create a calmer, more realistic routine. Often, two or three carefully chosen products are enough to provide comfort now and support the skin over time.
Your appointment can be as informative or as quiet as you need. You are welcome to talk through ingredients and your current routine, or simply lie back, switch off and enjoy being cared for.
Choose from refreshing facials, bespoke treatments with massage, deeply restorative options and non-invasive LED light therapy, all tailored to how your skin looks and feels on the day.
You leave feeling relaxed, refreshed and more confident about what your skin genuinely needs.
Think of these treatments as a fresh start—or a thoughtful check-in—for your skincare, whether it’s for your face or body.
At your Skincare SOS appointment we can explore your current routine, take a closer look at the ingredients you’re using, and figure out what’s really working for your skin (and what might not be). It’s all about putting you back in the driver’s seat—understanding not just what to use, but why you’re using it. That kind of clarity builds a better, more sustainable relationship with your skin.
I’ve always been passionate about ingredients and how they interact with the skin. I gravitate toward natural products rich in pure fats and lipids—these help restore balance, lock in moisture, and support the skin’s delicate microbiome in a gentle but effective way.
Choose according to how much time and relaxation you would like rather than trying to diagnose your own skin.
I will adapt the products and treatment once I have seen how your skin looks and feels.
Not unless that is the look you have specifically asked for. Often darker means that you can spread your appointments out further but colour and shape are agreed with you and adapted to suit your natural features.
Hybrid colour can also be applied softly.
MoroccanTan is selected for its believable colour and even fade.
We will discuss your natural colouring, occasion and preferred depth before choosing the most suitable option.
A skin sensitivity test is required before standard tinting and all lash lifting treatments.
Please arrange this for at least 48 hours before your appointment.
Yes. Compatible treatments can be booked during the same visit, provided enough appointment time is available.
Waxing and spray tanning should be booked on separate days.
A Korean lash lift is a gentle, conditioning lash lift designed to enhance your natural lashes with a soft, glossy curl. It focuses on lash health, flexibility, and a clean, polished finish.
Unlike traditional lifts that can feel firmer or more dramatic, a Korean lash lift creates a softer curl that grows out beautifully, making it ideal for fine, straight, curly or stubborn lashes.
Results typically last 6–8 weeks, depending on your natural lash growth cycle and aftercare.
Yes. The technique uses gentler formulations and is ideal for clients who prefer a more natural result or have sensitive eyes.
Not at all. Most clients love the lifted, glossy look on its own—perfect for low-maintenance, everyday beauty. You may like to use Castor Oil (included at your appointment) or for a protein-rich, clear mascara effect I recommend Elleebanna Elleplex Advanced Aftercare (£30) Which is available to order.
The Parkgate Studio is a private, one-to-one beauty space for clients who want knowledgeable care without the pressure, noise or exaggerated trends often associated with traditional salons.
You are welcome to ask questions, chat throughout or simply enjoy some quiet.
Come for fresher skin, easier brows, lifted lashes or a natural glow.
Leave feeling relaxed, cared for and more like yourself again.
You do not need to understand every service before making an appointment.
Many clients feel nervous or uncertain before trying something new.
Send me a brief message telling me what result you would like, and I will point you towards the most suitable booking option without trying to add unnecessary treatments.
A few well-chosen treatments can make preparing for an occasion, holiday or busy period feel much easier.
