One of the most rewarding parts of leading the Ashley Aquilina Academy is seeing our students transform their passion into a successful career. Today we’re celebrating Sarah Farrelly, a shining example of how dedication, skill, and the right training can elevate a PMU artist to full-time success.
Sarah first trained with us in PMU brows in 2020, returning in 2022 to expand her skills with lip blush training. Since then, her work has evolved into something truly remarkable.
Her portfolio showcases beautifully executed hyper-realism brows that are meticulously detailed and natural-looking — evidence of both her technical growth and her commitment to refining her craft.
Sarah’s clients trust her with some of the most sought-after techniques in semi-permanent makeup. Her approach to hyper-realism brows emphasizes:
Soft definition that looks natural
Precision in hair-like strokes
Balanced symmetry tailored to each client’s face
These qualities are what set her work apart and attract a growing number of loyal clients.
Whether she’s enhancing brows or performing lip blush treatments, her confidence and refined skillset shine through in every session.
Sarah’s success isn’t just reflected in her work it’s reflected in the demand for her services. Her schedule is consistently full, and her reputation for high-quality semi-permanent makeup continues to grow.
From microblading to advanced techniques like hyper-realism brows, she’s built a well-rounded service menu that keeps clients coming back time and time again.
What makes Sarah such a strong example of success is more than just technical ability it’s her:
✨ Commitment to continuous learning
