For International Women’s Day, we asked Lash Jungle ambassadors across Australia to share their experiences in the lash industry.
From starting their businesses to building loyal client bases, each journey reflects the different paths women have taken to create careers of their own.
Q. How has this career changed your life?
Maria, Mildura, VIC @mariaslashstudio_
“This career has allowed me the flexibility to be able to be there for my family and create a very healthy work life balance. It has given me the confidence to get my social skills back, and meet now long term friends.”
Ava, Halls Head, WA @avas_artistryy
“Starting my business has given me so much freedom and independence. It’s pushed me out of my comfort zone & helped me grow as a person.”
Emika, Leeton, NSW @luxebeautybar_e
“It’s given me independence, confidence, and a business I’m proud to call my own.”
Sameah, Blair Athol, SA @sf.beautystudio_
“This career has empowered me to build financial independence while creating meaningful impact in other women’s lives. It has strengthened my confidence, discipline, and belief in my vision. I just love what I do.”
Katherine, Meringandan, QLD @luxxeqbeautystudio
“Honestly? It didn’t just change my life — it changed how I see myself. It taught me I’m capable of more than I ever gave myself credit for.”
Q. What do you love most about your job?
Maisha, Burleigh Waters, QLD @mai.allure_
“I love helping women feel confident the moment they look in the mirror. I also love that I get to teach other women how to create their own dream business.”
Amylita, Collingwood Park, QLD @galvezartistry
“I love making women feel confident and beautiful and I love being a safe space for my clients. Without my beautiful clients I wouldn’t be the person I am today.”
Q. What is a proud moment in your journey so far?
Paige, Davoren Park, SA @lashed_by.paige
“A proud moment for me has been building my business from home and watching it grow through the support of my clients. Seeing repeat bookings and referrals reminds me how far I’ve come.”
Jessie, Mango Hill, QLD @sacred_beauty_
“Building a loyal clientele who trust me completely with their faces is something I’m incredibly proud of. As well as being chosen as an LJ ambassador within my first year of lashing 🥰”
Q. What advice would you give to other women starting in this industry?
Nicole, Redbank Plains, QLD @astridandko
“Dare to be different. Your voice has to be louder than everyone else’s, so make sure you back yourself 1000%.”
Shanelle, Thornlands, QLD @sii.studio_
“Back yourself before anyone else does and never underestimate the power of consistency. Stay in your own lane, keep learning!”
Madeleine, Sunbury, VIC @luxe_lashesbym
“Just Do It!! Take the leap, invest the time and you won’t look back.”
Today is for you
International Women’s Day is a reminder to recognise the women behind the businesses, the services, and the work they continue to build.
Happy Women’s Day to our lash community.
