We're incredibly proud to share that our co-founder, Lindsay Kinniburgh, was recognised as a Top 3 Finalist in the Rising Star category at the 2026 Gold Coast Women in Business Awards.
The awards celebrate the achievements, leadership and contributions of inspiring women across the Gold Coast business community.
For Lindsay, this recognition comes at a particularly meaningful time, as Make My Shave approaches its fifth birthday in November 2026.
Founded in 2021 by husband-and-wife team Lindsay and Mike, Make My Shave began as a self-funded passion project with a simple idea: to bring something different to women's shaving.
Almost five years on, that little idea has grown into an independent Australian dermaplaning and shave care brand, with Australia's only Vegan Australia-certified women's razor, our signature skin-kind dermaplaning ritual and a commitment to giving back through our support of the Currumbin Wildlife Hospital.
Behind the scenes, it's been a journey of learning curves, late nights, big decisions and plenty of determination. Being recognised alongside so many inspiring businesswomen is a proud personal milestone for Lindsay and a wonderful moment to reflect on how far Make My Shave has come.
A heartfelt thank you to the Gold Coast Women in Business Awards for this recognition, and to our incredible community for being part of the journey. We couldn't have done it without you!
