A quiet corner of the day, entirely for you.

Glitter and Shine was built around a simple idea — that a good appointment should feel personal, unhurried and just a little bit indulgent. Owner Johanna Marshall and her team spend the time to understand what you actually want, then get it exactly right.

"Jo has done my lash lift and tint for a couple of years now. They look lovely and last for ages. I love having them done before my holidays as I don't need mascara. Highly recommend Glitter and Shine — Jo is such a kind person. I wouldn't go anywhere else for my lashes now."
