My Story
While pursuing her degree in Orthoptics, Bridie channelled her creative energy by working in luxury cosmetics. Propelled by a lifelong passion for all things beautification, she dreamed of blending her eye for detail and creative talent with her medical background.
When Bridie first ventured into the world of aesthetics as a client, she felt lost. She couldn't find a practitioner who matched what she was looking for. On one hand, medical practitioners who offered safety and experience were often overpriced, distant and dispassionate. On the other hand, non-medical injectors were more accessible but lacked the necessary qualifications.
It was then that Bridie realised she was the practitioner she had been searching for. She could offer the safety and expertise of a medical background combined with a personal touch, providing a luxury, holistic, and safe experience that she herself had sought. In 2020, Bridie launched Subtil, quickly expanding to her own purpose-built private treatment studio.
She lives in Southport with her partner, balancing her dynamic career with a love for interior projects, traveling, and indulging in luxury beauty. When she’s not perfecting her craft, she enjoys time on the reformer, running with her dog, and creating a warm, inviting home life. Bridie's passion for aesthetics is matched by her enthusiasm for living beautifully, both personally and professionally. This blend of dedication and joy is what makes her approach to aesthetics so unique and heartfelt.
