About

Katie
Founder and Leading Facialist
Katie’s journey in skincare began nearly 15 years ago in Cork, Ireland, where her fascination with skin health grew into a lifelong calling. Early in her career, she gained hands-on experience while studying, laying the foundation for her work in the industry. She went on to earn internationally recognised CIBTAC and CIDESCO qualifications - two of the highest standards in professional skincare and beauty therapy.
Her early career took her across the globe, from luxury cruise ships to high-end spas in Australia, where she developed a deep understanding of how climate, culture and lifestyle influence the skin. Over the years, she has continued pursuing the highest levels of advanced training and certifications across Europe, refining techniques that blend clinical precision with intuitive, holistic care.
This vision inspired Skin Wise, a five-star skin clinic in the heart of Amsterdam, where science and soul meet. Each treatment combines medical-grade skincare with a whole-body approach, addressing not just the skin’s surface but also the balance and wellbeing that support lasting results.
Katie’s philosophy is simple: when the skin, body and mind are in harmony, true radiance unfolds naturally. Clients leave not only glowing, but grounded, balanced and renewed from within.
