Hey, I’m Victoria, the founder of hōld skin studio! After 15 years as a makeup artist in the fashion, commercial, and bridal worlds, I found myself craving a deeper way to connect—helping people feel incredible in their skin, beyond the big moments (although that is still super important to me).

When COVID hit, it put things into perspective; I wanted more of those personal, meaningful moments that truly helped people and less of the undervalued grind of commercial and fashion work. It’s taken 4 years of that niggling feeling of wanting more to realise what that next step was. I found myself guiding brides through skincare routines to help them feel radiant and confident on their big day, I loved seeing their results and so it only felt natural to move further into this realm.

I’ve had my own struggles with acne over the years and have been down the path of antibiotics, Roaccutane, and endless skin routines. Through it all, I realised my skin was happier when I took a gentler approach, which is why Corneotherapy fits so well with my philosophy. It’s about nurturing and healing, not waging war on your skin.

Clients often say I have a calming presence, which has always been my quiet superpower, especially on wedding days. With facials, I hope to bring that same sense of calm and combine it with reiki, creating a space where your skin and your mind, can truly unwind, calm the nervous system and help you feel deeply at ease.

So hey, that’s me! I honestly can’t wait to open and welcome you to the studio! 🤍🌊

Feel free to ask me questions!

hōld skin studio is carefully curated by me, Victoria. A makeup artist of 15 years. It’s been my love for crafting beautiful, healthy and glowing skin that has lead me down the path to become a Facialist.

Hōld will be a safe space to surrender your stresses. Where transformative facials are tailored to you from the moment you book. A holistic, science-backed approach which combines deep relaxation and curated skin rituals.

The aim is for you to experience a comforting space where you can relax and feel truly held. Our treatments blend ancient traditions with modern science, and tension-releasing massages that soothe the nervous system.

For now, we’re keeping it simple with the SCULPT menu. But the future will bring our SKIN menu which will offer bespoke skin rituals for brides and anyone looking to achieve healthy, glowing skin.

Follow @_holdskinstudio for more to come. 🤍

Six months of study, multiple courses, and over 1,000 miles traveled—this journey has taken me further than I imagined. I planned to start with just one course, but once I began, I couldn’t stop. True to my Capricorn nature, I had to dive deeper, uncover the hows and whys, and push myself to deliver something truly exceptional. Now, I’m ready to bring you the most incredible, otherworldly, deeply restorative facial. & I can’t wait for you to experience it.

At hōld it’s so much more than just a facial.

Save these stretches for the next time you’re feeling a little puffy, achy, and want to get your lymphatic system flowing again ꩜

A SCM massage softens tightness in the muscle and improves circulation in your neck and face.

Neck stretches help to ease tightness in the traps and help soften the shoulders.

The platysma stretch gently releases tension in your neck and jaw - it feels so good and opens up the chest - perfect if you’re hunched over a desk most of the day.
