Brides have been part of my work for many years. As a bridal makeup artist, alongside my work in beauty and skincare, I became known for creating beautiful, natural-looking skin and also for the calm and presence I brought to the morning of the wedding itself.For me, the beauty has always been in what happens before the makeup. Creating a beautiful canvas, understanding what the skin needs, and giving brides space to feel cared for and at ease in the lead-up to such a significant day.A Bridal Skin Journey brings that experience into my work today.It is a personalised approach to your skin and wellbeing in the lead-up to your wedding, shaped around you, your skin and the time you have available.And it isn’t only about how your skin looks on one day. It’s about taking time to care for yourself, slow down, breathe and receive during a very special season of your life.If you’re getting married and would like to explore what your Bridal Skin Journey could look like, I’d love to hear from you.
Beyond yes and no. 1 hour · €60This is much more than a conventional skin consultation.The Advanced MRL Consultation takes a deeper, more considered look at your skin and the wider picture around it — exploring not only what you can see on the surface, but what may be influencing how your skin is behaving.Marie Reynolds London describes this approach as going beyond the yes/no.The consultation explores a wide range of specific and sometimes unexpected questions around your skin, lifestyle, environment, habits, nourishment, wellbeing, emotional state and any physical experiences you may be noticing. It is an opportunity to step back and look at the bigger picture, make connections and consider your skin within the context of the whole person.This is not a medical consultation and I do not diagnose or treat medical conditions. Rather, it is an opportunity to explore, notice and gain a different perspective on what may be going on for you. From there, I can create a personalised MRL prescription and plan, which may include professional treatments, homecare, MRL supplementation and, where appropriate, wider MRL protocols.But you won’t simply leave with a list of products. You’ll leave with a deeper understanding of your skin and the wider picture, a clearer sense of what may be worth supporting, and a considered plan for what comes next.This may be right for you if:- You have ongoing skin concerns and want to understand them more deeply- You feel overwhelmed or unsure about your current skincare- You’ve tried lots of products without really understanding what your skin needs- You’re ready to look beyond the surface- You want a personalised MRL prescription and a clearer directionNote; This is also a valuable starting point if you’re considering more advanced treatments and we need to understand your skin more fully before deciding what is appropriate.
All facial treatments are suitable during pregnancy except microneedling.If you have a specific skin condition, medical consideration or simply aren’t sure whether a treatment is appropriate for you, please contact me before booking.If you are unwell or have an active cold sore, your treatment will need to be rescheduled.Your appointment;I work with a small number of clients each week, with each appointment intentionally reserved for you.If you’re unable to attend, please give as much notice as possible so I can offer the time to someone else.Late cancellations and missed appointments mean that time usually cannot be filled and may affect my ability to offer future appointments.Thank you for treating your appointment — and the time we share together — with the same care and consideration I bring to your treatment.My approach isn’t about a quick fix.It is about listening, responding and working together over time.Skin. Body. Breath. Whole person.
Your Facial Journey
Every treatment begins with you.
Before your appointment, you’ll complete a short online pre-treatment consultation so I can understand your skin, any relevant considerations and what you’d like from your time with me.
When you arrive, we begin from where you are.
Your treatment may include personalised MRL skincare, facial massage, lymphatic drainage, acupressure, breath awareness, LED light therapy and deep rest — depending on the treatment you choose and what feels right for you.
You don’t need to know exactly what you need before you arrive.
If you’re unsure, I’ll guide you.
Your Facial Journey
Frequently asked questions
An intentional facial is more than a facial with a purpose.It is an experience approached with intention — in the way I work, in the space I create, how I tune in, and in the way we meet your skin and your whole self.Your intention may be part of that. You might arrive knowing how you would like to feel, something you would like to receive, restore or reconnect with. Or you may simply arrive without knowing what you need. There is no right intention to have, and you don’t need to have one ahead of time.From the moment you arrive, I bring my own intention to the treatment — to be fully present, attuned and guided by what I see, feel and sense in the moment. Your skin, my experience, intuitive touch, breath awareness and massage all become part of an experience that can go much deeper than the skin.The treatment is not a set sequence that you simply receive. It is an unfolding, guided by what I see, feel and sense, while drawing on more than 15 years of skin therapy experience and the deeper attunement I have cultivated through my RBM breathwork practice.It’s never about forcing an outcome. It’s about creating the conditions to slow down, soften and receive — allowing space for the skin, the body, the self and what lies within to be met with care and attention.
Breathe, Skin & Within is the thread that runs through my work.BREATHE — coming back to the breath, the body and the power held within this unconscious act. When we make the breath conscious and allow it to deepen gently, without force, it can become a powerful doorway into restoration, connection and transformation.SKIN — listening to the skin as the beautiful sensory organ that it is — always communicating with us. Caring for it through the wisdom of MRL skincare, alongside a holistic, inside-out approach to the whole person.WITHIN — creating space to listen to what is happening beneath the surface and reconnect with the wisdom already within you. This can be through the body, breath, emotions, internal communication, nourishment, intuition or simply becoming more aware of what you need.Breathe, Skin & Within is also the name of my signature facial experience.This is where these elements come together through skin therapy, breath awareness, intuitive touch, deep rest and the space to notice what may arise within you.There is no prescribed path. Breathe, Skin & Within is an invitation to explore the relationship between your skin, your breath, your body and your inner world — wherever that exploration begins, and wherever it may lead.

Yes. Before your first facial, I’ll send you a short online consultation form to complete before your appointment. This gives me the information I need to understand your skin, your current skincare, your needs and anything I should consider before we begin.If completing the form online isn’t suitable, we can go through it together verbally.For microneedling and other needle-based treatments, a consultation is mandatory before treatment so that we can properly assess your skin and suitability.For some skin concerns or more complex needs, I may also recommend an Advanced MRL Consultation before we decide on your treatment plan.
Yes. Most of my facial experiences can be enjoyed throughout pregnancy and after birth, with treatments adapted to meet you where you are. Microneedling is the exception and is not offered during pregnancy.The postpartum period can be a particularly nourishing time to receive — a chance to slow down, rest and be cared for while your body is continuing to adjust and restore.If you are nursing, your baby is welcome to be close by during your treatment where practical. Your comfort, your baby and what you need on the day can all be part of the experience.
Absolutely. Skin concerns are something I work with every day, but you don’t need to have a particular concern to benefit from a facial. Every skin — and every person — can benefit from time, touch, nourishment and attentive care.If you do have a specific concern, we’ll look beyond the surface to understand what your skin may be communicating and what support it might need. Some concerns can be supported within individual treatments, while others may benefit from a longer-term Skin Renewal Journey or a more considered approach to home care, lifestyle and, where appropriate, internal support.Your part matters too. Lasting change isn’t created by what happens on the treatment bed alone; the care you give your skin and body between treatments is part of the process.
Yes. If you’re preparing for your wedding, I recommend beginning your skin journey well in advance — ideally six months or more before your wedding day, where possible.Rather than leaving everything until the final weeks, we can work together to understand your skin, establish a supportive home-care routine and create a treatment plan that evolves with your skin over time.Your wedding day is the destination, but the journey is about much more than how your skin looks on one day. It’s also an opportunity to slow down, receive and be cared for during a particularly full season of life by the care you give your skin and body between treatments is part of the process.
Testimonial
I had the most amazing experience with Ciara for a facial and an introduction to guided breathwork—it completely redefined what a facial treatment can be! From the moment I arrived, Ciara made me feel so incredibly safe and welcome, which allowed me to instantly let go and relax. We started with a few minutes of deep, focused breathing, and with Ciara gently guiding me into total relaxation, what can only be described as a magical 'experience' began.
Right from the start, she explained all the products and walked me through exactly what she was going to do, which felt so comforting and amazing. I walked out with glowing, deeply nourished skin and a profound sense of peace and relaxation. It is honestly so much more than just a skincare treatment—it is a total mind-body reset. I can't recommend Ciara enough!"
