Happy National Estheticians Day! 🤍

Thank you to all my wonderful clients. Without you I wouldn’t be able to do what I love. Your trust, support, and time in my treatment room mean so much to me!

And to my fellow estheticians, cheers to the passion and heart we pour into what we do!! Here’s to helping people feel confident in their skin, always learning, and cheering each other on. So grateful to be part of this community!

Peptides are one of my favorite ingredients for supporting healthy, youthful looking skin but not all peptide products work the same way.

✨ InterFuse Face & Neck is designed for overall firming and improving the appearance of aging skin on the face and neck.

✨ InterFuse LINES is a targeted treatment for expression lines around the eyes, forehead, lips, and smile lines. Botox in a bottle 💉

I love using them together because they each have a different purpose.

Comment PEPTIDES and I’ll share my top favorite peptide serums.

Clear skin is possible if you put in the work at home. A lot of people think you can just do skincare here and there to get results but in reality your skin needs consistently and a routine that is good for your personal skin and acne type.

Comment the word ACNE and I’ll send you a link to book an acne clarity call with me to see if you would benefit in my acne bootcamp program. Acne bootcamp can be in clinic or virtually if you do not live close.

Before your facial, ask about adding dermaplaning. 🤍

It gently removes dead skin and peach fuzz, leaving your skin feeling smoother, looking brighter, and helping your skincare absorb better. Plus, your makeup goes on so much more evenly.

It’s one of my favorite add-ons for that extra glow. ✨

How often should you actually be getting a facial? ✨

• Ideally every 4–6 weeks
• Monthly facials help maintain healthy, glowing skin
• Consistency > random treatments

Is it time for your next facial ? 🤍

Just a Hydrafacial with lymphatic drainage and personalized boosters. The glow is immediate, but my favorite part is how refreshed and healthy the skin looks after.

Who else loves that post facial glow?

You don’t have to choose between these two acne ingredients…

Mandelic acid and benzoyl peroxide are two of the most common ingredients I use when clearing acne, but they’re often misunderstood.

They don’t do the same thing, and that’s exactly why they can work so well together when used correctly.

Mandelic acid helps exfoliate and clear the pores, while benzoyl peroxide targets acne causing bacteria.

The key is using them strategically based on your skin type, sensitivity, and overall routine.

Beyoncé never misses, and neither does a HydraFacial. 🪩 I say that as your esthetician and as someone who has seen this treatment change skin.

We’re talking one appointment that cleanses, exfoliates, extracts, and floods your skin with hydration and you leave glowing. Like, actually glowing. Any redness fades fast and you’re back to your day looking and feeling amazing.

Smooth texture. Even tone. Instant radiance. If your skin has been quietly asking for a revival, consider this your invitation. ✨

Dark spots, melasma, or leftover acne marks that just won’t go away?

Pigment can be stubborn, but the right ingredients make a huge difference.

One of my favorite products for discoloration is Even Intensive because it doesn’t just try to “bleach” the skin. It works on pigment at multiple stages to help improve uneven tone, sun damage, melasma, and post-acne marks.

As a licensed esthetician, I’m very careful about what I recommend for pigment because using the wrong products can actually make discoloration worse. When used correctly and consistently, this is one of those products that can really help brighten and even the skin over time.

Remember pigment takes patience, but consistency is everything.

If dark spots are something you’ve been struggling with, DM me “EVEN” and I can help you figure out if this is the right fit for your skin 🤍
