ABOUT US
Meet monica
Founder/Master Lash Artist, Certified Master Educator
I have been a part of the fitness and beauty industry for over 28 years, and through my work with various Canadian and American designers over the years, I have always been most inspired by the “beauty” aspect of the industry.
Fueled by my passion to empower women through enhanced beauty, I have pursued my dreams. I have always wanted to have my own business. To create something from scratch, nurture it and grow it into something I can be proud of.
I started my lash business over 9 years ago with a purpose – to fight for my financial independence. I was looking for a change and for something I could call my own.
My family and I came to Canada when I was 3 years old. We were immigrants. English is my second language. I grew up in East Vancouver. It was hard. My parents divorced when I was 8 years old. I essentially had to raise myself. When I was 19, I became pregnant with my son. I raised him alone. It was one of the hardest things I have ever gone through. Finding a career with the ability to set my own hours was important to me. One day while scrolling through Instagram, I stumbled across lash lifting. Without giving it too much thought I decided you take the course. After 6 months of completing the course, I knew I mastered this technique and felt I wanted more. I then decided to take the classic and volume eyelash extensions course. After a year my client list continued to grow. I was fully booked as a lash pro and 1 year later I decided to become an educator. I have been a certified educator for over 7 years now. Teaching is my true passion.
The beauty business gave me life. Educating woman feeds my soul. It gave me freedom. My mission is to empower other women to take their power back and live life on their terms.
My students are precious to me! I am so proud of these women, and I love watching them grow and become exceptional in the beauty world. Come and join our community of strong and empowered women! I look forward to meeting you!
