We #keepithonest
Once upon a time, not too long ago, a thinking therapist grew tired of working for businesses that care more about profit than they do about clients. She knew that all clients want is honest recommendations, exceptional service and the results to match - and that neither were forthcoming more often than not.
With this in mind, she forged her own path to develop “The Honest Beauty Collective” - a (future) Nurse*/ Dermal Therapist- led clinic where thinking therapists can thrive, that delivers on their promise to put honesty, safety and compassion into every treatment, to help people get the best possible results without being pushed by aggressive sales tactics and extras you don’t need.
Her name is Katie J, and she is me.
Welcome; I can’t wait to get to know you!
I LOVE treating skin; to me, there’s nothing better! I’m passionate about educating my amazing clients and helping to restore confidence with lots of laughter and support. If we aren’t already “beauty besties”, we will be by the end of your treatment!

Mesoestetic
I chose Mesoestetic as my first brand partnership because I’ve seen firsthand the kind of amazing results it can achieve for my clients and myself.
Their commitment to research, contribution to industry, results and sustainability practices makes them a no-brainer for me!
Celluma
I came across Celluma when working in Queensland and was absolutely blown away by the results and research that has gone into their devices. I love that they are focused on developing devices for pain management as well as aesthetics, as it allows me to be able to help you feel gorgeous AND well!
Bestow Beauty
I have only just found this range and I’m already obsessed!
Being able to support your internal health and wellness has always been the “missing link” for me in a lot of the clinics I’ve worked in, so I’m happy to finally be able to. Your outsides reflect your insides; and Bestow is what will get you the “glow from within”.
Bio-Therapeutic
My newest tech additions sure pack a punch!
It has long been a dream of mine to own one of these, as I’ve seen first-hand how they can help take an already great treatment even better.
Squeeze-free extractions, deeper penetration of actives and a subtly lifted look post treatment all sound like wins to me.
Fillerina
This is a bit of a “golden oldie” for me, in the sense that I’ve been aware of Fillerina since the early days of my beauty career, and I’d forgotten how much I love the product for its immediate and long-lasting hydration capabilities.
If you’re not ready to have the discussion around aesthetic medicine, Fillerina could be for you!
Silk Oil Of Morocco
Whether you wear a little or wear a lot - (almost) every woman wants makeup!
This mineral makeup range is Australian, clean and it’s beautiful quality. The lipsticks are rich and pigmented, and the foundation feels like air!
I am the last person to ask for application advice, but the formulation is great and easy to apply, and life feels a little bit better with lipstick, right?
Girls Get Off
This is a new offering for me, in the sense that -apart from our in-treatment D & Ms about what’s going on with your life- even I haven't discussed sexual wellness and its impact on skin and overall health as a concept in my treatments before.
I’m particularly excited to be able to bring my newly-gained nursing knowledge into the discussion and normalise the conversation.
Elleebana
All Lash Lifts and brow laminations are performed using Ellebana products.
They are the industry leaders in both product technology and education - and I absolutely love the results!
