Here’s something the beauty industry will NEVER tell you:
Looking good has nothing to do with spending lots of money.
Many of us have been guilty of the “fast food” beauty habit. It looks like this...
You have problem skin, it’s breaking out a lot or it’s super dry or blotchy and red so you go out and you drop a load of cash on a whole new skin regimen.

Nothing makes an esthetician roll her eyes faster than when someone brings up the do-it-yourself exfoliating scrub recipe they found on Pinterest.

I get asked alot about taking supplements to improve skin conditions. There really is no magic pill. Believe me, if there was I would have found it by now! However, over the years I have seen a few supplements that really do make a difference, both in the improvement of certain conditions like acne and in making the skin appear healthier and younger-looking. Obviously not all supplements are created equal so I’ve included my favorite brands. The good news is also that you can get all of these from delicious food too!

Can’t figure out why your skin is breaking out? Feel like you’ve tried it all and nothing is working? Here is my tried and true way to get to the bottom of it once and for all.

This time of year you'll hear a lot of talk about resolutions and goal setting and planning for the new year. I'm not really a resolution maker but I do like to come up with a theme or a few words at the beginning of each year. For 2024 my main word is “pause”.

You may already know that I ended 2023 by closing my business. I went from running a 7 room spa and retail store to being a solo aesthetician. As a business owner the last few years have been a stress-fest. Lots of ups and downs and extreme situations to say the least.
