Polaris Cosmetics

Every Halloween, I always looked forward to seeing what wild idea Ashley Smith would bring me. 🎃✨

One year she walked in and said, “I want to be a squirrel.” This time? A flamingo. 🦩😂

The funny part is that I had absolutely no plan. I pulled up a photo of a flamingo for inspiration, grabbed a fake nail, glued it to create the beak on her nose, and built the entire makeup look around that one little idea. Everything else came together in the moment—pure creativity, instinct, and a lot of imagination.

About an hour later, this fabulous flamingo was born! I love challenging myself to create something completely off the cuff. Sometimes the best looks aren’t the ones you spend weeks planning—they’re the ones that happen when you trust your artistry. #💄

Cue the happy dance! 🎩🐸💃

There’s nothing that makes me smile more than welcoming a new client! Beautiful eyebrows? ✔️
Wonderful personality? ✔️
Great conversation? ✔️

I truly have the best job. Thank you for trusting me with your brows. Welcome to the Polaris family! ❤️

Proof that when I’m quiet on Instagram… it’s because I’m busy making magic behind the chair. 🤎✨
I’ve been a little MIA because my schedule has been full of beautiful clients, brows, glam, and long days doing what I absolutely love. Social media had to take a back seat for a bit, but I’m beyond grateful to everyone who’s been trusting me with their faces and keeping me so busy.
Thank you for all the love, support, referrals, and for keeping my books full. I can’t wait to start sharing more of the transformations I’ve been creating. Stay tuned! 💄✨

What a wonderful and beautiful shout out from the Japanese students from 2025 Belle Epoque with our fearless leader and my friend Aubrey. ❤️❤️💞🤩🎉🎉🎉. Thank you everybody for the lovely greeting. You’re an inspiration to me. And I’m truly grateful.🫶🏻🎉🫶🏻💫💫

Booked, busy… and still managed to make it a whole moment before the sun even went down. ✨🌈

Full day of faces, brows, and beauty — but the vibe? Light, playful, and just a little extra. Because who says the fun has to wait for nighttime?

WeHo in the daytime hits different… sunshine, energy, beautiful people, and that effortless “anything can happen” feeling.

Work hard, glow harder… and don’t wait for dark to live a little. 💋

Before the rush…

Clip up. Brows on. Light in.
Me first—then the world. 💛

One of those beautifully full weeks 🤍

So many wonderful clients… and as always, I got lost in the conversations and forgot the photos (except for the one I literally chased down to her car 😄).

Somewhere in between, I escaped to Paris—courtesy of a little imagination and a touch of AI ✨

Grateful for the moments, the connection, and the beauty in all of it.

There are two kinds of love in my life that never miss…

The kind that sends you a giant pink teddy bear just to say “I love you”—thank you to my big brother,Patrick who somehow still sees me as his six-year-old little sister… and yet respects me as the woman I’ve become. That kind of love is forever 🩷

And then there’s the love I get to experience through my work…

A fresh set of tailored brows and a soft, lovely lash lift to start her day—effortless, natural, and completely her. This beauty is one of three sisters I’ve had the honor of working on… along with their mother. Generations of trust, connection, and care.

That’s what I love most about what I do—these relationships that grow over time, that feel like family.

Beauty is never just about the face… it’s about connection.

New Year’s Eve.
End of a long day… I was ready to go home and celebrate… and then the phone rang.

A young man in total desperation—his brows had just been butchered. I didn’t know him… but I stayed.

That’s the night we met.

What started as a last-minute fix turned into a connection that has lasted over 30 years.

I’ve watched him grow, evolve, and transform… but what has never changed is his heart. His passion. His drive. That same beautiful energy that fills a room.

This is what I love most about this industry.
It’s never just about makeup… it’s about people.
The ones who become part of your life. The ones who feel like home.

Still inspired by you. Always. ✨
