Florida native Pierce Gillette grew up with a persistent desire to create beautiful things. From painting to drawing, and knitting and sewing, Pierce has always been an artist at heart. Shortly after earning a degree in Retail, Merchandising & Product Development at Florida State University, she realized a career in the corporate world wouldn't satisfy her creative impulses and entrepreneurial spirit, so she sought out a new path. While living in Houston, she discovered the art of permanent makeup and in turn, her passion.

Influenced by years of mentorship under Houston's most sought after microblading artist, Pierce approaches permanent makeup with a mindset that less is more and strives for natural, undetectable work. Throughout her time in Texas, she had clients travel from all over the country for her service, from as far west as Montana and New Mexico, spanning all the way to Florida and Washington DC, with many in between.

She is excited to be back home in Florida, and looks forward to serving the St. Petersburg community!

  • Pierce is AMAZING!! Getting my eyebrows done with her was quite possibly the best money I’ve ever spent. If you’re on the fence, just do it. She will talk you through everything and make sure you are 100% comfortable the entire time. She also listens to exactly what you want and will give you the brows of your dreams.

  • "I had a horrible threading experience years ago and my brows never fully grew back, Pierce gave me back that confidence and I cannot stress enough how nice it is to wake up and not have to pencil my brows in. Highly recommend Pierce and investing in your brows, totally life changing."
