HUSH Cosmetics Beauty Studio general manager Jessica Callahan started her own beauty therapy business from home six years ago when her children were young.
She has been a beauty therapist for 18 years and has always had a passion for make-up and cosmetic ingredients.
“When mineral make-up hit the market I was lucky enough to have some great contacts in the industry and learnt everything about the formulas and ingredients,” she said.
“As my business grew I decided to offer my own range of affordable mineral make-up.”
Ms Callahan worked for more than a year on creating the most natural formulas and colours that worked before launching the range mid last year. Many other local businesses helped her set up with printing and design work.
“Since then my business has grown significantly and we now supply more than 30 salons and make-up artists across Australia with Hush Cosmetics mineral make-up,” she said.
Ms Callahan early last year decided she needed to move her business out of home and expand with more employees.
“We now operate from Emerald my home town and still offer all beauty therapy services specialising in make-up, including make-up classes for the public and professionals, tanning, waxing, pedicures and facials,” she said.
“We love to do eyebrow shaping and walk-in clients are welcome.”
Hush mineral make-up is made in Australia at specialist cosmetics labs.
“We also sell a huge range of beauty products including false lashes, self-tan, organic skincare, nail polish and have just released Hush skincare – an affordable basic range of cleansers and moisturisers,” Ms Callahan said.
Hush recently purchased a high-tech micro dermabrasion machine to treat skin conditions, including acne, fine lines, discolorations, dry or oily skins.
“Our therapists are very experienced and care about your needs,” Ms Callahan said.
“Our salon is friendly, affordable and we get results.”
All Hush products are free from parabens, petrochemicals, artificial colours and fragrance.
“We invite you to make an appointment for a Free HUSH make-up or skin care consultation,” Ms Callahan said.
