Blush was founded in 2020 by Brittney, whose passion for brow artistry ignited a journey to create a salon that would soon become a local favourite. Through dedication and her unique talent, Brittney transformed Blush into a thriving beauty destination within just two years.
In 2021, Brittney crossed paths with Emma, a fellow beauty enthusiast and skilled professional. Together, they formed a solid support network, bringing fresh energy and a shared vision to Blush’s services. Recognising their synergy, Brittney and Emma made the strategic decision to join forces officially in 2022, merging their skills and expertise to propel Blush to new heights.
With their partnership firmly in place, Blush evolved beyond its brow-focused origins, expanding to include Advanced Skin treatments, Tattoo Removal, and Aesthetics. Each new service was carefully developed, with specialists in each field joining the team to elevate Blush's offerings. Today, Blush stands out as a clinic that combines artistry, advanced techniques, and exceptional client care to provide a holistic beauty experience.
Our Story
Emma
CLINIC COORDINATOR
-
Emma began her beauty career in 2013 as a makeup artist in Brisbane and expanded her expertise to brow artistry in 2015. However, it wasn’t until she had her brows and eyeliner tattooed by Valentine Artistry in Melbourne that she discovered her true passion for cosmetic tattooing. This experience inspired Emma to pursue formal training in brow tattooing at Valentine Artistry, igniting her dedication to mastering the craft.
In 2020, Emma moved to Mackay and founded M Cosmetic Tattooing, which she later merged with Blush Brows + Beauty in 2022. Since then, Emma has focused on perfecting her skills in cosmetic tattooing, brows and lashes. In 2024, Emma's expertise was recognised with awards at the Australian Beauty and Cosmetic Tattoo Awards.
As demand for tattoo removal and correction services increased, Emma expanded her qualifications to include saline, glycolic, and laser tattoo removal. She now specialises in tattoo removal and serves as the North Queensland trainer for THink Aesthetics.
Today, Emma is focused on her role as Clinic Coordinator at Blush Brows + Beauty, overseeing daily operations, guiding the talented team, and ensuring an exceptional experience for clients. She is also passionate about training, with a dedicated focus on nurturing the next generation of artists..
Emma continues to grow alongside Blush and Tattoo Removal Mackay, supporting both the clients and the team in every aspect of the business.
