This is a unique session that is designed for older women and takes them on a journey from bare face to a healthy glow. With lots of chat around growing older, make-up and lots more besides.

This amazing opportunity allowed Karen to work with many musicians and designers of the time.
Karen has worked for fashion magazines, catwalk shows advertising and Celebrity shoots including Kate Winslett for Premier magazine and Jude Law for British Vogue to name but a few. Her eye for detail for close beauty led her to work with many hair brands and hairdressers including Trevor Sorbie Akin Konizi and Nicky Clarke all past winners of The British Hairdresser Award.
