Welcome.

The MastectoME Beauty Project is a 'not-for-profit' group of photographers and artists. It was the concept of makeup artist Anya Pogodzinska and was designed to help women who’ve undergone single or double mastectomy to feel beautiful. For each woman participating, we create a bespoke makeover and portrait experience with the use of makeup, body art and styling. We've been featured on BBC North West and in several publications too.

The MastectoME Vision.

Welcome to the Mastecto Beauty Project, where we celebrate the strength and beauty of women who faced breast surgery following a cancer diagnosis. Our makeover and portrait experience is designed to uplift and empower, utilising styling, makeup and often body art to highlight each individual's unique beauty. With our expertise in cosmetics and photography, we create a supportive environment that embraces the journey of every participant. Join us in discovering and showcasing the beauty that lies within you.

The MastectoME Process.

All candidates have undergone their surgery - whether that be a single or double mastectomy, lumpectomy, chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy. Every woman has a unique story. When they sign up to take part in the project, they participate in a video consultation where we discuss and tailor the design to best represent them and their level of comfort. Each portrait captures their own unique story by using colour, styling and props, and each participant receives a fine art print as a memento of their day.
