Get To Know Our Abundant Brow Ambassador: Rebecca Jobson

Every day brings something different. We'd love to know: what does a typical morning look like for you these days?

These days, "typical" isn't really a word I'd use to describe my life.

Sharing 50/50 custody means every week has a different rhythm. One morning I'm negotiating with two little girls who somehow can't locate a single shoe between them, packing lunchboxes, brushing impossible knots out of hair and constantly checking the time because we're, inevitably, running late.

The next, the house is quiet.

I wake up to a completely different pace. I might head out for a sunrise walk, make a coffee without reheating it three times, or squeeze in a gym or pilates class before the day begins.

The contrast couldn't be greater, and for a while I found it jarring. I'd swing from complete chaos to complete stillness overnight.

But I'm slowly learning that neither version of the day is better than the other—they just ask something different of me.

Whether I'm caught in the morning rush or walking beneath a pink sunrise, I'm trying to practise the same thing: slowing down enough to actually notice where I am. To stop treating every moment like it's simply the thing before the next thing.

I'm not very good at it yet.

Are there any small beauty rituals that make you feel like you've got your life together, even on the days you absolutely don't?

These days, I'm calling it a success if I find the time for my three-step beauty routine—which, thankfully, takes less than three minutes.

That said, the ritual that makes the biggest difference isn't surface level at all. A few minutes of qi gong has become my non-negotiable. It wakes up my lymphatic system, shifts my energy and somehow makes me feel like a functioning human... or at the very least convinces my body it got the ten hours of sleep it most definitely didn't.

Brows have certainly had their fair share of trends over the years. What's one brow era you lived through that still makes you laugh?

My sister and I always joke that I was lucky to be born in the right era. Mainly because Mum refused to let me touch my eyebrows until I was old enough to make my own questionable beauty decisions—which meant I narrowly escaped the pencil-thin brow epidemic of the '90s.

Ironically, I actually love a skinny '90s brow now. But I still wouldn't trade the ones I have. Thick, a little unruly, and unmistakably mine.

Sometimes the things we spend years trying to change end up becoming the things we're most grateful we kept.

Has becoming a mum changed the way you approach beauty or getting ready?

My priorities have definitely shifted over the years. Becoming a mum taught me more about myself than I ever expected. Somewhere along the way, I stopped looking to other people to define what beauty should look like and started asking myself a much simpler question: Does this feel like me?

Having two daughters has only strengthened that perspective. They absorb everything—the words we use, the way we speak about ourselves, the things we celebrate and the things we criticise. It's made me so much more conscious of the example I'm setting.

I want them to grow up believing their worth has nothing to do with fitting into someone else's idea of beauty. And in trying to teach them that, I've found myself believing it a little more too.

Your beauty routine has probably evolved through every season of life. How has your approach to your brows changed over the years?

Ironically, after years of chasing the next beauty trend, I've ended up appreciating the things that have always been mine. My brows are thick, naturally full and a little wild—and I've learnt they're part of what makes me, me. Trends come and go, but there's something really freeing about leaning into your own features instead of constantly trying to change them.

One of the things we love most about this campaign is celebrating the reality of everyday life. Where are you most likely to be doing your brows?

The car, or the kitchen—subsequently where I am spending the most of my time being the kids' uber driver and personal chef. 

If you had to describe your perfect brows in three words, what would they be?

TRUE. TO. YOU.

At Holme Beauty, we believe makeup should celebrate individuality rather than change who you are. What's the makeup look that makes you feel the most like yourself?

I've definitely become more of a less-is-more kind of person. I feel my most beautiful when I'm simply enhancing what's already there rather than trying to change it. There's something really empowering about feeling like yourself, not like you're hiding anything.

Give me healthy, glowy skin, a touch of bronzer and a natural, fluffy brow, and I'm happy. For me, beauty has become less about transformation and more about feeling like the best version of myself.

Confidence looks different to everyone. What makes you feel most confident at this stage of your life?

For me, confidence hasn't come from getting everything right—it's come from getting things wrong. Every setback, every failure and every lesson has shaped the woman I am today.

The more life I experience, the more I trust myself. I've realised I'm capable of navigating things I once thought would break me, and that there's real confidence in knowing you'll find your way through, no matter what life throws at you. That kind of confidence feels much more lasting than anything that comes from the outside.

What do you hope your children learn about beauty from watching you?

I hope they learn what my mum taught me: that nothing about themselves needs to be changed.

This nose was passed down from my mother, and the women before her. My smile lines are proof of a life filled with laughter. My frown lines remind me I've felt life deeply. My freckles are little kisses from the sun, and the scar on my cheek tells a story of resilience after being bitten by a dog as a little girl.

None of them are flaws. They're all part of my story. And I hope my girls grow up believing that the things that make them unique are the very things that make them beautiful.

If you could give your younger self one piece of beauty advice, what would it be?

True beauty begins from within.

There will always be people with opinions, but not every opinion deserves your attention. Surround yourself with people who celebrate you, encourage you and remind you of who you are. Be that person for others, too.

Find spaces where you feel safe enough to bloom into the truest version of yourself.

And on a slightly more practical note: drink your water, look after your gut... and never skip the SPF.

The word "abundance" means something different to everyone. What does abundance look like for you in this season of life?

To me, abundance isn't about having more—it's about noticing what I already have.

When life feels noisy or overwhelming, I try to come back to what's already in front of me: an abundance of love, an abundance of laughter, friends who show up, opportunities I once dreamed of, and the quiet moments that remind me how lucky I really am.

I've realised abundance isn't always something you find. More often, it's something you choose to see.

You're known for your personal style. How do you approach your makeup routine to complement your looks?

First of all, I'm not sure I'm known for my personal style, but thank you—that's such a lovely compliment.

For me, makeup is all about having fun and expressing how I'm feeling. I love getting ready for events because, after spending most days in mum mode (usually wearing someone else's breakfast), there's something really empowering about getting glammed up. It's like putting on a little armour—a reminder that while motherhood is a huge part of who I am, it isn't all of who I am.

Finally, what does "Back Your Beauty" mean to you?

To me, "Back Your Beauty" means feeling comfortable in your own skin. It means not waiting for permission to feel beautiful or measuring yourself against someone else's definition of it. It's about embracing who you are, backing yourself, and feeling free to show up as your most authentic self.
