In a world of deep-plane facelifts and Botox, Queen Camilla has proved that a much simpler tweakment can be just as effective an anti-ageing tool.
Royal fans noticed the Queen’s eyebrows looked much fuller and more defined in photos taken during the Nigerian president and first lady’s state visit – as the beautician responsible for the transformation came out of the shadows.
London‘s ‘Eyebrow Queen’ Suzanne Martin posted a photograph of Her Majesty on her Instagram page with perfectly arched and preened eyebrows.
‘Our beloved Queen Camilla, always a pleasure!’ Ms Martin wrote. ‘Thank you for trusting me.’
And Camilla isn’t the only celebrity to show off the age-reversing results of Suzanne’s bespoke £1,400 procedure that, some say, is just as good as getting a facelift.
The Daily Mail’s Diary Editor Richard Eden revealed Suzanne has been ‘discreetly working for over ten years with discerning clients’ – including pop princesses Dua Lipa and Ellie Goulding, as well as entertainment stars like Keeley Hawes.
And the results are astonishing, as an aesthetics expert said ‘even subtle brow enhancements can create a fresher, more youthful look’ without the need for invasive treatments.
People forget that ‘simply restoring shape, fullness, and definition to the brows can instantly lift and soften the features,’ Dr Ross Perry, the Medical Director of Cosmedics skin clinic, told the Daily Mail.

Suzanne is also behind singer Ellie Goulding’s brow transformation
It’s likely the reason that Suzanne, who began her career as a Dior makeup artist, dedicated herself to the pursuit of perfect brows.
The brow specialist is based at The Lanesborough Club & Spa on Hyde Park Corner in London, but credits a holiday in Thailand to shaping her career.
Writing in The Telegraph, Suzanne said she noticed an ‘eyebrow tattooing’ parlour ‘sprang out of nowhere’ – just as the heat meant her brow pencil was running down her face.
‘Picture this: I’m in the middle of the market, positively sweltering in the heat, with my make-up running down my face – including my perfectly applied eyebrow pencil – and I just thought, isn’t that a brilliant idea, a semi-permanent eyebrow that doesn’t rub off,’ she said.
Suzanne added it ‘that day in Bangkok sparked more a curiosity than an epiphany’ that led to the development of her ‘bespoke Couture Brow treatment’.
‘Brows are the most powerful feature of the face, enhancing natural beauty and bone structure – and they deserve a truly bespoke, considered approach,’ Suzanne told the Daily Mail.
She added: ‘My intention is simple, to make my clients look and feel beautiful. But what works today might change tomorrow, which is why I use a semi-permanent technique that can truly evolve with your life, style and preferences.’
The two-part procedure costs £1,400, with an additional £800 for top-up visits every eight to 10 months.

Keeley Hawes is among Suzanne’s celebrity clientele
New clients are typically given an in-depth consultation when Suzanne photographs the brows and analyses bone structure and facial features, before sketching on a tailored template using brow pencil.
She told The Times that ‘the key is not to over-arch the brow as this can look cheap’.
Once the design is approved, it is applied using microneedles – that create semi-permanent, fine, hair-like strokes that look incredibly realistic – over the course of two 90-minute sessions.
Suzanne’s Instagram features several high-profile clients, including Dua Lipa, showing off their brow transformations.
Others who swear by Suzanne’s treatment include TV producer Jemima Goldsmith, the ex-wife of former prime minister of Pakistan Imran Khan, and Paul McCartney’s daughter Mary.
Reviews under all of her posts gush Suzanne is the go-to for natural-looking, fluffy, and perfectly shaped brows – and it appears the Queen is also a fan.
