Plush University is a premier business academy based in Toronto, Canada, dedicated to helping beauty entrepreneurs build profitable, scalable, and sustainable brands.

Hi, I’m Mikkaila.
I'm the ceo and founder of Plush Aesthetics and Plush University.
I have an honours BA from the University of Toronto and have been a Lash Artist for the past 7 years and counting. I have been a Lash Educator for the last 4 years and counting.
I started my lash business in 2017 as a service based business. Over the years I have expanded my business to also include retailing lash products, offering lash trainings, and coaching/mentorship.
At Plush, my main goal is to always provide my clients, students, and customers with luxury. Luxury Lash services, luxury Lash products, and luxury education.
Through my experience, I have developed extensive knowledge and skills on how to start, develop, and expand a lash business into a brand and am passionate about helping others do it too.

At Plush University, we also have a community of like-minded individuals with similar goals, struggles, and life experiences to make sure you NEVER feel alone!
