MEET JESSICA BUTLER

With over 25 years of experience in the beauty industry, Jessica Butler is the founder and owner of Vanity Fair Beauty & School, a luxury beauty, aesthetics and training academy based in Crowborough, East Sussex.

Jessica's passion for beauty began at just 14 years old, when she started working as a Saturday shampoo assistant in a local hair salon. Captivated by the beauty room, she eagerly asked the salon's beauty therapist to teach her whenever possible, spending Thursday evenings, weekends and every available school holiday gaining hands-on experience and developing her skills long before beginning her professional training.

At 16, Jessica went on to study Level 2 and Level 3 Beauty Therapy at West Kent College, building the foundations for what would become a lifelong career. After qualifying, she gained valuable experience working within salons, luxury spas and golf clubs before progressing to prestigious retailers including Harvey Nichols and Liberty London, where she further developed her expertise in luxury beauty treatments and exceptional client care.

In 2009, Jessica fulfilled her dream of opening Vanity Fair Beauty, creating a welcoming salon renowned for its friendly atmosphere, professional service and outstanding treatments. After successfully running her salon in Tunbridge Wells for over 16 years, she relocated Vanity Fair Beauty to Crowborough in April 2026, where she continues to welcome clients from Crowborough, Tunbridge Wells, Uckfield, Heathfield, Forest Row, Wadhurst, Jarvis Brook and the surrounding areas.

Dedicated to continually advancing her knowledge, Jessica has expanded her qualifications into advanced aesthetics and is now a Level 7 Aesthetic Practitioner. She offers a wide range of beauty and aesthetic treatments, always focusing on achieving natural-looking, confidence-boosting results tailored to each individual client. Alongside treating clients, Jessica is passionate about education and founded Vanity Fair School of Beauty, where she trains and mentors aspiring beauty therapists and aesthetic practitioners. Sharing the knowledge, skills and experience she has gained throughout her career is one of her greatest passions, helping others build successful and rewarding careers within the beauty industry.

Whether you're visiting for a relaxing beauty treatment, advanced aesthetics or professional training, Jessica is committed to providing every client and student with honest advice, exceptional care and the highest standards of professionalism in a warm, welcoming and supportive environment.
