How It All Started
I started BeckySparkle after joining the PTA at my daughter's school. When I volunteered to help at the school fair, I saw firsthand how much joy I could bring to children — and that inspired me to turn it into something more.
"Seeing a child's face light up when they look in the mirror — that's the moment that makes everything worthwhile."
What began as a school fair hobby quickly grew into a full service. I trained professionally in glitter face painting techniques, invested in the best cosmetic-grade products, and built a collection of over 140 glitter tattoo designs.
Now I bring the sparkle to birthday parties, festivals, school events and private celebrations across Shrewsbury and Shropshire. Whether it's 10 kids or 100, I love every single event!
Meet Isla
Every great business has an origin story — and mine starts with Isla, my daughter. It was at her school fair that I first picked up a glitter brush, and watching her face light up with excitement was the moment I knew this was something special.
"Mummy, can you sparkle ALL my friends?" — and just like that, BeckySparkle was born.
Isla is my sparkly little assistant, my biggest fan, and my harshest critic! She helps me test new designs, picks out glitter colours, and makes sure every look passes the "Isla approval" before it makes it onto the menu. If it doesn't get a thumbs up from her, it doesn't make the cut.
She's the reason I pour so much love into every party — because I know exactly how it feels to see your child's face absolutely light up with joy. That feeling is what BeckySparkle is all about.
