Hi! It's nice to meet you.

My name is Mary-Ann, and I'm from Melbourne (Naarm). I’m a writer, journalist, and dermal clinician who specialises in beauty and lifestyle.

My Substack is a love letter to beauty: analysing issues and talking about products—beyond trends, status, and the algorithm. It’s a sanctuary where you can see beauty in everything in life and, most importantly, making the industry better than it was before we set foot in the beauty sphere.

If you’d like me to write for you and your publication/brand, please email me at maryann.dermalclinician@gmail.com.
