Photo dump... because there were far too many moments not to share, and I genuinely couldn't decide which ones to post.

I've been trying to put this experience into words, and I still don't think they quite do it justice.

47 countries. Hundreds of artists. One man's vision.

What Mohammed Hanafy and the entire PMUX team created was something genuinely special.

Yes, there were incredible demonstrations, inspiring education and so many opportunities to learn. But if I'm honest, some of the most valuable moments happened in between. The conversations over lunch, the laughs and screams on the camel rides (I don't think I've ever ridden a camel at a conference before! 😂), and meeting artists from all over the world who all share the same passion for raising the standards of our industry.

What stood out to me most was Mohammed himself. It didn't matter whether you were new to the industry or internationally recognised—he made time for everyone. With over 200 people there, that level of genuine care doesn't happen by accident. Somewhere amongst it all, he even found time to arm wrestle my husband. 😂

The team behind him were equally incredible. No detail went unnoticed, everyone was looked after, and you could feel how much thought and care had gone into every part of the experience. We were truly spoiled from beginning to end.

Thank you, Mohammed, and thank you to the entire PMUX team, for reminding us that this industry is about so much more than techniques. It's about people, generosity, connection and never stopping learning.

I'm grateful to have been part of it and already looking forward to the next one.

Everyone talks about the how. Very few people talk about the why.

That “why” is what completely changed the way I approach lip blush and honestly, it changed my results too.

If you’re a PMU artist, promise me one thing… Don’t skip Slide 11.That’s where the biggest takeaway is.

I’m curious… what’s the hardest part of lip blush for you? 👇

Less isn’t always more… but when it comes to natural brows, it usually is.

Hair STRØQ is all about softness, precision and respecting each client’s natural features. Every brow is designed individually, because no two faces and no two brow patterns.. are ever the same.

Subtle changes can make the biggest difference. 💚

Not every client starts with a blank canvas.

This client came to me after previous laser removal, which meant every step needed to be carefully considered from shape design and stroke placement to colour choice and long-term healing.

The goal wasn’t to create a bold brow. It was to restore what had been lost and create a result that felt natural, soft and believable.💚

The response to the first edition was incredible, and I’m so excited to announce the second edition of Skin Tech Fundamentals. 🤍

What started as an idea to help artists better understand the science behind PMU has grown into a programme that is helping professionals build more confidence, achieve more predictable results and truly understand the skin they work on every day.

It’s about knowledge, critical thinking and creating better outcomes for our clients through a deeper understanding of skin physiology, healing and treatment planning.

I can’t wait to welcome a new group of artists to Dublin for the second edition of Skin Tech Fundamentals. 💚
