Carpe Diem

Beauty & Massage 

Welcome.

My name is Amber Sykes. I am a self employed, fully insured, fully qualified beauty therapist living in the heart of St Marychurch, Torquay, Devon. I have been a therapist for more than a decade, working in spas & salons around the country. Over the years, I have been fortunate to attend many beauty training courses, furthering my knowledge within the beauty industry. I provide a range of treatments within my treatment room such as massages, facials, all aspects of waxing and eye treatments.
