hair and beauty in Greater London

Hi, I’m Léa Gauthier — an accredited skin specialist and founder of Skin by Léa.

I specialise in results-driven skin treatments designed to support healthy, radiant skin in a way that feels both effective and deeply relaxing. Alongside bespoke facials, I now offer advanced microneedling and diamond microdermabrasion treatments, as well as LVL lash lifts and brow lamination, providing natural enhancements that complement your features rather than overpower them.

My journey into skin began in makeup artistry, where I worked professionally from 2010. Over the years, I realised that while makeup can enhance and transform, it often masks underlying skin concerns rather than addressing them. That realisation shifted my focus from covering skin to caring for it — and enhancing natural beauty in a way that feels effortless and considered.

Today, I work with clients who want real, natural results — whether that’s improving skin texture, boosting collagen, restoring glow, refining pores, calming sensitivity, or enhancing lashes and brows with low-maintenance treatments.

As a wellness enthusiast, I’m passionate about combining advanced techniques with thoughtful, personalised care. I’m constantly refining my skills, exploring new technologies, and selecting products that are effective, gentle, and aligned with a more conscious, cruelty-free approach to beauty and skin health.

If you’re looking for a specialist who takes the time to listen, educate, and treat you with care and intention, I’d love to welcome you.

Advanced facials, microneedling, diamond microdermabrasion, LVL lash lifts & brow lamination — based in Wapping, London.

Wapping station is only a 4-minute stroll away.
