Central Clinic is a boutique beauty studio in Wānaka founded and operated by Courtney, who was named NZ Lash Artist of the Year in 2024. Operating since 2018, the clinic caters to clients looking for bespoke, low-maintenance beauty solutions tailored to their natural features and lifestyle.
The studio focuses on natural results rather than dramatic, overdone looks. Courtney specialises in custom lash extensions, lash lifting and tints, brow shaping, brow lamination, and semi-permanent cosmetic brow tattooing designed to help clients wake up feeling effortlessly put-together.
For those living an active Central Otago lifestyle, daily beauty routines often take a backseat to the outdoors. Since opening in 2018, Central Clinic in Wānaka has built a loyal following by solving that exact problem. Founded and run by Courtney, the studio is dedicated to helping clients wake up feeling effortlessly put-together through bespoke brow and lash enhancements.
Courtney’s expertise is backed by industry recognition, having been awarded NZ Lash Artist of the Year in 2024. Despite the high-profile accolade, her approach remains entirely grounded in personal care, meticulous attention to detail, and a commitment to subtle, flattering results tailored to individual face shapes.
Central Clinic sets itself apart by deliberately avoiding heavy, one-size-fits-all treatments. Courtney works with the philosophy that beauty enhancements should complement your lifestyle and existing features rather than overpower them. Whether you are tired of filling in sparse eyebrows every morning or want to skip mascara entirely, the clinic focuses on natural enhancement.
Every lash set is individually mapped to suit the client’s unique eye geometry, with options spanning from delicate, soft everyday extensions to fuller, glamorous finishes. The studio also offers modern LED lash extensions alongside classic application techniques, catering to diverse preferences and retention needs.
Beyond traditional lash extensions, Central Clinic is known for treatments that deliver extended longevity with minimal upkeep. Lash lifting and tinting provides a wide-awake, lifted look using only the client’s natural eyelashes, lasting anywhere between six and eight weeks without requiring infills.
For brows, the clinic covers everything from shaping, waxing, and lamination to semi-permanent cosmetic brow tattooing. Brow tattooing is designed to look soft and gentle rather than harsh or drawn-on, creating long-term structure that eliminates the daily hassle of brow pencils and powders. Courtney offers complimentary consultations for prospective brow tattoo clients, ensuring ample time to ask questions, discuss expectations, and map out the right fit before committing to the procedure.
Appointments at Central Clinic are tailored for a relaxed, focused one-on-one experience, offering Wānaka locals and visitors a trusted space for refined lash and brow care.
