About Moya
True Beauty Lies Within
My story is one of beauty, compassion and connection.
Welcome
Hello, I’m Moya.
For over 35 years, I have had the privilege of helping thousands of people feel more confident, comfortable and at home in their own skin.
My journey began with three years of professional training in hairdressing and beauty therapy, where I qualified with both City & Guilds and CIBTAC. Those early years gave me a strong technical foundation, but more importantly, they taught me that beauty is about far more than appearance.
It’s about how we make people feel.
A Career Built on Experience
My first professional role was with Steiner of London at the Manchester Piccadilly Hotel, representing respected skincare houses including Guinot and Decléor. I had the privilege of treating many wonderful clients, including well-known television personalities, alongside women and men from all walks of life.
I later worked with some of the beauty industry’s most respected brands, including Lancôme at Kendals Manchester, Yves Saint Laurent at Boots Manchester and Clarins at Lewis’s Manchester. I was then honoured to become the UK Spa Specialist for Lancaster, travelling throughout the UK, delivering luxury spa experiences and sharing my knowledge with therapists and clients alike.
Those years taught me something I have never forgotten. Whether someone is well known or quietly living their everyday life, everyone wants the same thing.
To feel valued. To feel cared for. To feel comfortable being themselves.
Building My Own Path
After settling in Glasgow and welcoming my first daughter, Leah, I opened my first salon just six weeks later.
That was the beginning of many rewarding years running successful salons, educating professionals as a trainer for Creative Nail Design (CND) and EZ Flow, and mentoring therapists as they built their own careers.
As my own journey evolved, so did my passion.
Permanent Makeup became the specialist field where artistry, precision and confidence came together. It allowed me to help people in a deeply personal way, creating natural, timeless enhancements that honoured their individuality rather than changing who they were.
My Philosophy
Over the years, I’ve come to realise that people don’t always remember every detail of a treatment. They remember how they felt.
That understanding has shaped everything I do. My treatment room is a calm, safe and welcoming space where you can simply be yourself. A place where you are listened to. Where you are treated with kindness and respect. Where you are never judged.
Every treatment I offer is Soul Led. I work from the heart, combining professional expertise with genuine care, because I believe the experience you have is just as important as the treatment itself.
My hope is that every person who walks through my door leaves feeling lighter than when they arrived. More relaxed. More confident. More loved. And carrying that feeling with them long after they leave.
My Promise
I don’t believe beauty is about perfection. I believe it’s about helping people reconnect with themselves.
Whether you come to me for permanent makeup, healthy skin, a natural facial or Reiki, my promise is simple:
To welcome you warmly.
To listen with care.
To treat you with honesty and professionalism.
And to help you leave feeling more like yourself than when you arrived.
Because I have always believed…
