While I always loved my time working in salons, I quickly found my gifts specifically fell to makeup and skincare. Hungry for knowledge about this, believe it or not, organ of the body, I specifically sought out coursework and training that would empower me to be a top-notch makeup artist. It was during this journey for excellence that I branched out to all the incredible facets of caring for and nurturing skin. It wasn’t enough to learn makeup…I had to learn it all. I soaked up each certification, becoming an expert in makeup applications, waxing, facials, chemical peels, dermaplaning, brow laminations and tinting, lash lifting and tinting, lash extensions, etc. I have over a decade of experience in the industry, with several of those years involving medi spa procedures. I also offer dermaplaning, medical-grade chemical peels, and use the top-of-the-line microneedling pen: SkinPen.
Like you, I don’t put questionable products in or on my body. There’s a lot of beauty products that contain chemicals that are not well understood. I trust and recommend using Epionce skincare products, specifically made by an American dermatologist. I love this line because it is effective in targeting problematic skin, protecting the skin’s barrier and fighting off the aging process. What sets these products apart from others is the fact that the trial studies have all been done on the FINAL PRODUCTS (not just the ingredients, like most skincare companies do.) It’s efficacy is bar-none and I love that I can trust that it will do what it says it will do. It has provided such amazing results for my loyal clients.
Another line that I use is called Zanabella. It’s a woman-owned local business that has really taken off on a national level. I love supporting local businesses, and this gives me an opportunity to serve my vegan clients with products that contain ZERO preservatives and chemicals. I incorporate both of these lines into my treatments and I love that both work synergistically together to provide great results, no matter the skin type.
My style of sessions varies from a giggled-filled gab session to a blissfully silent relaxing spa session. You choose the style! My goal is to have my clients feeling balanced in mind, body and spirit! For those interested in Reiki, I can incorporate Reiki energy practices in the treatment of your choice.
I’m often asked about my choice for the name of my first business, Skindividual. It’s simple, really. Each individual’s skin is unique. The balance of chemistry is unique to you…That’s why every single treatment that I do is customized for the individual client based on their needs for that day, combined with their end-goal. (I actually set goals with my clients and work towards achieving them over time!) Come find out why I’ve become one of the West Shore’s most popular estheticians by offering premium services filled with gratitude, kindness, and the occasional hug of encouragement.
