A Note from the Owner

Hello, I'm Leah Lynch, Newburyport local and owner of Beautique! Beautique was created with the dream of bringing together fun, talented professionals with discerning clients in a casual and homey environment. The number one feedback we get, besides our high skill level, is that clients really feel welcome and comfortable in our cute, intimate space.

After only a few years in business, we were honored with FIVE Best of North Shore awards, as well as magazine and television appearances, international recognition, and awards for our lash extension services.

As the creator of Lash Affair Academy, a national training company, I am able to provide a unique and high level of training to my staff that sets us apart from competitors.

I couldn’t be more grateful for my amazing team. Come see what everyone's talking about!
