A BAILDON woman is thriving with her beauty business after changing careers.

Mother-of-two Emma Jasper discovered MyShowcase in 2015 while on maternity leave with her second child.

MyShowcase is a platform that gives women the opportunity to start and build their own business as a stylist, selling beauty products when suits them.

She has completed more than 130 showcases selling beauty products to a group of women in the last 18 months and now has a client base of 400.

She said: “In the beginning, I didn’t know a concealer from a foundation or a serum from a moisturiser, let alone how to build a beauty business from scratch.

“MyShowcase has given me the confidence and training to be able to build a stable and robust business.”
