A modern studio focusing on creating natural beauty enhancements so you leave the best version of yourself.

A natural-born artist with strong foundations in art and design, continuously pushing the limit in Cosmetic Tattooing.

Native New Yorker and Miamian, Iris studied several creative industries, which began with her love for architecture, music, and illustration. For almost two decades, she had careers both as a professional Interior Designer and a professional hair stylist. In 2008, she made the transition into beauty and shortly after found a new passion in cosmetic tattooing. Iris trained with Claire Vuillemot, owner of Laurel Cosmetic Tattoo. She later helped develop the distinct natural brow look at Laurel, voted best Tattoo Studio in New York City.

Iris remains a Lead Artist and Educator at Laurel. Her work focuses on a softer approach, resulting in a more natural and realistic appearance, which is a truly unique style not seen in the industry. Iris is obsessed with natural and continues to advance in her craft through ongoing master training, always keeping up with the latest trends and modern techniques. Iris has developed her own combination of artistry and technique that stands out from the rest.

Her main focus is to educate others with the same passion to master her unique style so that everyone getting this service leaves looking their very best! Iris specializes in soft natural brows, natural lip blush, areola restoration, lash enhancement eyeliner, and natural freckles.

Iris has recently opened a private boutique cosmetic tattoo studio in Waxahachie Texas - extending Laurel’s education to Texas! Iris uses the most modern techniques in the business in order to customize what is most suitable for your skin type.

 
 

On Inspiration

“What nurtures my soul is surrounding myself with others that have the same drive and passion to evolve. I love seeing the beauty in all of its imperfections, enhancing the very natural elements found in each individual, and witnessing the level of confidence boost is by far the highest feeling of reward in this career path and the very core reason why I love doing what I do.

I am continuously inspired and in admiration of my lifelong partner, Casey Showalter - who is truly gifted in so many different creative outlets and capable of capturing his artistic visions on film, effortlessly. I will always be inspired by my mentor and master artist, Claire Vuillemot - who changed my career path and continuously opens the doors to growth and evolvement”.
