the experience

Picture the scene...

You've arrived in the beautiful Swan Valley coffee in hand, and for the next seven hours nobody needs anything from you!

There's laughter. 

There may well be tears (the good kind). 

There's a make up masterclass that actually makes sense and 

There are conversations that go deeper than you expected. 

Lunch is served - and you didn't have to prepare it

You explore the space, and capture yourself in it and you leave 

like you've spent the day with your besties - Even if you arrived as strangers

Full day retreat experience · Makeup masterclass with professional guidance · Confidence-building exercises and activities · Guided meditation and journalling · Delicious lunch · Time to capture yourself in the beautiful surroundings · All materials provided

There's journalling, real conversations, connection with brilliant women who get it, and probably some laughter-tears. You'll leave with skills, yes - but also with something bigger. A shift in how you show up for yourself.

  • Your makeup bag (however ancient or fancy - zero judgment)

  • Your brushes (even if it's just the sponge applicator from afore mentioned palette)

  • Comfortable clothes

  • An open mind

  • Optional: accessories if you want to make use of the grounds for a mini photoshoot

Women 40+ who want more than tips and tricks. You're curious, ready to be kinder to yourself, and done with feeling invisible. Maybe you've lost confidence somewhere along the way. Maybe your lashline has disappeared under eyelid skin, Maybe you're just ready for a brilliant day with women who speak your language.

First-timers welcome. Skeptics welcome. Women who think "I'm not the retreat type" - especially welcome. [Women under 40 also welcome!]
