Over time, Liv saw so many brides who on their wedding day had wished their skin was better. It may have been texture, break outs, clarity and fine lines, or a mix of all of them, and it quickly became apparent that by the time these ladies got to Liv for makeup, the time for skin preparations had passed and makeup could only do so much. The drive to help these women turned from makeup and cover ups to prevention by opening Oak & Eve Beauty where we could help make their skin as good as possible, so they felt confident even without the makeup. 18 years later Liv is proud to be the owner at Oak & Eve Beauty and lead a team of 8 women who are equally passionate about skin health, wellbeing and confidence in their own skin.
