My name is Joanna Mieczkowska

But in the world of Permanent Makeup, I go by Yoanka — a name that grew with me as I grew into the PMU industry for over a decade now.


My journey began back in 2011, rooted in cosmetic skincare, henna, and massage therapy. These early experiences were more than just services — they became my foundation. They taught me the nuances of skin, how it responds to treatments, and how powerful we are as beauty professionals in helping others feel confident in their own skin.

But everything shifted in 2017. That’s when I discovered semi-permanent makeup, and from the moment I picked up my machine, I knew I had found my purpose. I dove in fully — becoming a certified SPMU Artist & Instructor in Malta and Spain, and I never looked back.

To share everything I’ve learned — and to elevate other artists along their own path — I founded Yoanka SPMU Academy in Malta. It’s more than a training center; it’s a home for ambitious artists ready to rise. In fact, I am proud to be recognized as the first foreign SPMU Instructor in Malta, a title that carries not just history, but responsibility — to pave the way for others and to raise the standard in this fast-evolving field.

International PMU Trainer, Speaker, Judge, Swiss Color® Instructor & Malta´s First Foreign PMU Trainer 

Today, my Academy is a launchpad for talent across Europe and beyond. My students don’t just train with me — they travel alongside me, attending international PMU events, joining exclusive backstage experiences, and even taking the stage at conferences, workshops, and competitions, where I serve as a global speaker, judge, and mentor.

As an International Swiss Color® Trainer & Official Distributor, I work closely with one of the most respected PMU brands in Europe. I offer their premium pigments, needles, and accessories through my shop — providing artists with tools they can trust.

But my mission doesn’t stop with basic or advanced brows, lips, or eyeliner techniques. I also teach and perform Medical Micropigmentation — from alopecia and scalp treatments to scar camouflage and areola-nipple restoration. These treatments are more than technical skills — they are a way to restore dignity, confidence, and self-love.

My Mission

To elevate the next generation of PMU artists by teaching proven pigmentation techniques, business strategies, and real-world practices for running a successful SPMU studio or academy.

Through expert-led in-person trainings, online courses, and exclusive global workshops, I’m here to open doors — not just to skill development, but to personal transformation, professional visibility, and long-term success.

But the heart of it all lies one vision:

To build a global PMU network of empowered, connected, and confident artists — ready to lead, inspire, and create beauty that transforms lives.
