When Helen started offering facials from her home, it wasn’t part of some big business plan. It was survival. A mother of three and a former baker, she needed a way to earn income while staying close to her children. What began as a side hustle during maternity leave slowly grew—fueled by late nights, word-of-mouth, and a deep desire to help others feel good in their skin.
H’s Beauty Studio, named after Helen herself, now operates as a full-service skincare and laser clinic in Toronto. From essential facials to tattoo removal, from head spa treatments to lymphatic massages, every session is done by Helen alone—licensed, trained, and passionate. It’s a one-woman operation built on trust, training, and the kind of care that keeps clients coming back.
“I used to be a medical technologist in the Philippines,” Helen shares. “When I moved here, I looked for something I could do from home—something healing but also creative.” She found her path in aesthetics. Now, clients walk in not just for beauty treatments but for the comfort and confidence that Helen brings.
Her best advice? “Even the best treatments won’t work if you’re stressed. Sleep, rest, and take care of yourself—that’s when your skin truly heals.”
H’s story is a reminder that small dreams can lead to big transformations. With love, a little science, and a lot of hustle, she turned her passion into a place where others come to relax, restore, and glow.
