Greetings Gorgeous There is an old saying "When you know better, then you do better". I wholeheartedly believe this statement. Esthetics is a science and any science class requires the learner to study the material to understand how to successfully implement experiments, test theories, and produce results. In this age of technology, many go to search engines and social media platforms to "do their skin" on their own. PERSONALIZATION Information on social media is not always reliable. If you are experiencing issues with your skin, then why not see a licensed professional to help you? You can walk into your local drug store or cosmetics store and read labels and say "yes, I have acne. This bottle says acne cleanser, so let me buy it." However, do you know what is causing your acne? Is it even acne? Does the cleanser require another product to pair with it? Are the right active ingredients in it to help you? More than likely you are not sure. Your skin is unique. When you come to see me, I am focused on YOU. I am not concerned with what you saw trending. I will analyze your skin, listen to your past experiences with skincare, and design a plan for you. This is not a one size fits all situation. SCIENCE BACKED SOLUTIONS Do-It-Yourself remedies can be easily reached online but can sometimes be harmful. Estheticians undergo extensive training often backed with scientific evidence. At Abellathena, your esthetician has two college degrees in science and mathematics along with an Advanced Practice Esthetician license, massage therapy license, and holds the certification of Reiki Master. You can be assured that chemistry and the impact of ingredients is understood and the holistic approach is appreciated. I have access to pharmaceutical grade ingredients to help you reach your goals. Results take time. Trendy and marketing buzz is not my first priority. YOU ARE THE PRIORITY. EDUCATION OVER INFORMATION Wrong information is rampant and the internet can be overwhelming. This post may be overwhelming for some. You do not have to just figure it out and feel lost. I encourage you to come in and start your skincare journey with me. "Know Better, Do Better" rings true in the realm of skincare. While social media and the internet offer a wealth of information, nothing beats the expertise of a licensed esthetician armed with a scientific background. Invest in your skin, it is the largest organ on your body and deserves the best.
