"I had my brows done by Annie and I am absolutely thrilled with the results. She took the time to understand exactly what I wanted, explained every step of the process, and the finished result is beyond anything I hoped for. My brows look so natural and beautifully shaped. I would highly recommend Annie to anyone looking for a truly professional and skilled artist in Swindon."

Annie Foffano
Formerly trading as Bellissima Beauty a business Annie founded in 2017 that began life as a home salon before evolving into a fully established beauty salon within a local business centre Annie's career has always been driven by one core purpose: transforming confidence through exceptional skin and brow artistry.
In 2024, Annie discovered Phi, the global leader in permanent makeup and creator of PhiBrows, a discovery that marked a defining new chapter in her professional journey. She went on to complete her PhiBrows certification in January 2025 and subsequently trained internationally travelling to Rome to master PhiLips Blush and to Serbia to train directly under Phi founder Branko Babic in BB Stroke.
BB Stroke is a revolutionary technique that unites the finest qualities of traditional microblading with the precision of machine brows, producing ultra-realistic hair strokes with superior colour retention. Alongside this, Annie deepened her expertise in Plasma Skin Tightening.

What Women Are Saying
Real experiences from real clients across Swindon and Wiltshire. Genuine reviews left on Google and Facebook.
"I had the lip blush treatment and I genuinely cannot stop looking at my lips. Annie was so professional, calming, and meticulous. She took her time mapping the shape perfectly before even beginning, and the colour she chose for me is exactly right. I feel so much more confident. Her studio is beautiful too very clean, relaxing, and welcoming. An absolutely five-star experience."
"I travelled from Chippenham after a friend's recommendation and it was absolutely worth it. Annie took the time to fully understand my concerns with my brows before she even touched me. She is incredibly skilled, and the BB Stroke technique she used gave me the most natural-looking brows I have ever had in my life. I have already booked my colour boost and told everyone I know to visit her."
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before booking your semi-permanent makeup consultation in Swindon.
Semi-permanent makeup (SPMU) uses specialised pigments implanted into the upper layers of the skin to create the appearance of fuller brows, defined lips, or enhanced features. Brow treatments typically last between 12 and 24 months. PhiLips Blush generally lasts 2 3 years. A colour boost appointment is recommended to maintain your result.
A topical numbing cream is applied before your treatment to maximise comfort. Most clients describe the sensation as a light scratching or mild pressure entirely manageable. Annie ensures her clients feel relaxed and at ease every step of the way.
Avoid alcohol for 24 hours prior, avoid retinol or AHA/BHA skincare for at least two weeks before, and arrive with a clean face free from makeup. Avoid tanning or excessive sun exposure and inform Annie of any medications or medical conditions at the time of booking.
PhiBrows is a hand-tool microblading technique producing crisp, realistic hair strokes ideal for normal to dry skin. BB Stroke is a hybrid technique combining microblading with machine work, delivering natural hair strokes with significantly better colour retention particularly suited to oily or mature skin. Annie will advise during your consultation.
Full brow appointments typically take 2.5 3 hours including consultation, numbing and the treatment. PhiLips Blush appointments are usually 2 2.5 hours. Annie works without time pressure every appointment is given the full attention it deserves.
A patch test may be required depending on your skin history and the treatment you choose. A thorough medical history review is conducted prior to all treatments. Your health and safety always come first.
