Love formulating brow color for my redheads❤️❤️❤️
Adding a Brow Tint to your Brow Wax adds beautiful definition. Whether you want to cover grays or darken too light brows, your Brow Tint will last for approximately 4 weeks. At $22, why not give it a shot at your next appointment? Make sure to add it on when you schedule!

Obviously, as an esthetician, I want to do facials

Obviously, as an esthetician, I want to do facials on each and every one of you (extra points if you have blemishes for me to extract😁). But truly, I think we all need to take time to make ourselves healthy. Mentally, physically, and emotionally. Do I follow this mantra all the time? Unfortunately, no. But I try to make a conscious effort to do it more often than not. So schedule a facial (pretty please!), stop skipping your spin class, and spend some time relaxing in nature. And if you see me a bit stressed one day please remind me to relax as well. We all need to support each other!

Smiling eyes🙂
Gorgeous @cutsbyshea trusted me to do her Lash Lift and I absolutely love the results❤️ Several factors go into choosing the best fit for your Lift. Depending on eye shape, lash length, and how deep set your eyes are, a lift pad is chosen to achieve either a "c" or "j" shaped curl. Most of my clients prefer a "j" shape like Shea for maximum rise. Come in and get your own customized Lash Lift. Wake up and go gorgeousness can't be beat!

I get it...Brazilian Waxes aren't for everyone. So

I get it...Brazilian Waxes aren't for everyone. So what's the difference between a Bikini Wax and an Extended Bikini Wax you ask? A Bikini Wax removes the hair visible on the sides beyond your underwear or bathing suit. An Extended Bikini Wax takes it a step further and will remove hair off of the top and cut in further on the sides. Neither involve removing hair off of the rear or labia. You do you sis!

I see this a lot in the beauty community.
Infographics full of "acne triggers"
are constantly circulating. We get these lists of "bad" foods and I think it could be costing us more than we know..
Eating disorders are unfortunately so common. 50% of teen girls and 30% of teen boys use unhealthy weight control behaviors. By the age of 17, 89% of girls have dieted. I personally will never share a post with a list of foods to avoid.
As an Esthetician, it's my job to meet
you where you are and support you❤️

I'm super excited about this month's special! I was trying to brainstorm a way to incorporate Mother's Day with May's Special and decided supporting moms in need would be the perfect fit! @genesisofpittsburgh has many great programs that support both pregnant and new moms, but my favorite is Genesis House, a maternity home for pregnant homeless women. The house accommodates up to 8 women at a time, and residents are encouraged to complete their education, seek employment, and become self-sufficient. The women receive prenatal care, counseling, and take parenting classes all while living in a safe and secure environment. Help me give back by donating baby wipes, footed sleepers, or formula to help these wonderful moms and be entered into a drawing to win a $125 gift certificate to The Skin and Wax Spot! Drawing will be held on June 1st!

Microchanneling effectively aids in slowing down skin deterioration and aging. Looking to treat the crepiness? Microchanneling will do the trick!

Simplify your skin care routine. I get it. You're

Simplify your skin care routine.
I get it. You're scrolling online and some influencer/celebrity/person with beautiful skin is raving about a new skin care product. Stop and really think before you hit that "Buy Now" button. For one, they are 99% getting compensated by that company to essentially advertise the product. In many cases, celebrities have nothing to do with the skin care line that has their namesake; they've simply been paid for it to be used. Finding what works for your skin and being consistent with it is the most important thing. And although your skin can change as you age and develop new needs, your tried and true products don't just one day decide they aren't going to work anymore. This is because there is no direct mechanism for your skin to become immune to the effects of products. Cleanser, moisturizer, and sunblock are the 3 must haves. Start with those and build on a few extras for your specific needs (acne, sun damage, etc.) . And always ask your dermatologist or esthetician for recommendations, not the Kardashians🤪

Who is Microchanneling good for? An ideal candida

Don't be so sensitive! Pumpkin Cream by @arcskinca

Don't be so sensitive!
Pumpkin Cream by @arcskincare is the bomb for rosacea and redness prone, sensitive skin! Mild pumpkin enzymes gently digest off dead skin cells while shea butter and essential fatty acids deeply hydrate. Pumpkin oil fortifies the skin with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory benefits to help refine skin texture and reduce redness and inflammation. You (and your glowing skin) will not be disappointed!

Pet peeve alert!
When I hear people say "your skin is a sponge," in reference to all of these "toxic" things we put on it, I want to scream. The role of a pharmacologist would be VERY different if substances as simple as toothpaste and hand soap could get into your blood. Imagine how tricky swimming would be if our skin was a sponge! Even with transdermal medications such as nicotine patches anywhere from 10-95% of the medication remains on the skin unabsorbed. Skin care companies are not trying to get their hydrating night serum into your bloodstream🤦‍♀️ Stop believing everything you read/see on social media and do your research.
