Green Tea is EPIC.

Study after study has shown the positive effects of green tea in the body, on the skin, and even in hair. From protecting against skin cancer to reversing heart disease, Green Tea is something that should be added to your shopping list and should be in your skin care.

INSIDE THE BODY

Tea isn’t just for the elderly or intellectuals. From Lipton to Snapple to Honest Tea the flavors for tea have been promoted by beverage companies for many years. But tea is more than just something to satiate your thirst. Tea can make you healthier and Green Tea goes further by counteracting the effects of aging inside the body, protecting cells from free radicals and reducing the levels and stickiness of bad cholesterol. Green tea has large amounts of polyphenols, specifically EGCG, that have been shown to have anticancer, antibacterial and antiviral properties. Because it has less caffeine than coffee, or even black tea, you get the alertness without the jitters. The low caffeine amount with a naturally occurring amino acid called L-theanine works to improve brain function. Studies have shown that Green Tea increases fat burning and boosts the metabolic rate. It even reduces bad breath! I could go on and on about the benefits of Green Tea. If you’d like to learn more, check out this article in Authority Nutrition.

Obviously, the easiest way to get the antioxidant benefits of green tea in your diet is to drink it. It is available in loose leaf form or tea bags as well as already brewed and bottled. Bottled green tea is often sweetened so pay close attention to the amount of added sugar or artificial sweeteners. Most medical studies involving green tea concluded that you get the most benefit by consuming at least 4 cups per day. If it sounds hard to squeeze in that many servings of a beverage, consider matcha green tea which is also available in powdered form and has lots of creative uses. It can be mixed with your favorite fruit juice, blended into a smoothie or stirred into yogurt with fruit, nuts and granola.

IN SKIN CARE

We’ve talked about the importance of antioxidants, how naughty free radicals are, and what they do to the skin in our previous blog article The Dance. Topically, Green Tea is a super antioxidant that squelches free radicals and protects skin from hyperpigmentation caused by the sun. The anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties can benefit all skin types. Whether you are trying to calm reactive skin, clear up breakouts, or fight the signs of aging, green tea is your go-to ingredient. Beacuse it is so good for your skin there is no reason why your skin care products shouldn't have Green Tea in them. 

Incorporating Green Tea into your skin care routine is easy with Tu’el. We’ve recognized the benefits of this antioxidant powerhouse for years. You can find Green Tea (also called camellia sinensis leaf extract) in many of our products. Your best morning options are our amazing Antioxidant Cleansers, C Power, Daily Protect, and Hydrate. Super Soothe 2 in 1 Mask is an incredible moisturizer and mask. It's perfect for calming down those winter rosy cheeks and sunburns (especially after skiing) and is a perfect stocking stuffer for anyone. We like to say giving the gift of healthy skin is always the perfect present.

If you are lucky you will live a long peaceful life and age gracefully.  

But with that long life you can expect some major changes in what your skin will feel and look like. There is good news and bad news when talking about the skin and aging. We will start with the bad news, then move on to the good.  As the skin ages it thins, even though the number of cells stays the same. Though, the number of cells remain unchanged the cells containing pigment decrease with time. These two changes create a thinner skinned, paler version of the youthful you. It also aids in revealing age spots and previous sun damage. The tissue that connects the skin decreases, giving a saggy less perky look. This loss of elasticity is especially vulnerable to sun damage and can result in a leathery, weather-beaten appearance. The fat under the top layer of skin also thins. That’s why older people need to wear sweaters all the time and yes, I have a sweater on right now. The loss of fat makes wrinkles more and more visible as the fat decreases. The sun feels so good, especially when you are young. But the price you pay for unprotected sun activities is visible when you are older. Ultraviolet rays penetrate the top layer of skin and wreak havoc causing accelerated aging. It’s premature aging delivered topically, especially of you are outside sunbathing. Had a long eventful night and went straight to bed wearing make-up? You might save time but you are smothering your skin when it needs you to care for it most. Wash your face every night so that it can heal, rejuvenate, and rest. Another way to age your skin is from the inside. Smoking, alcohol and eating unhealthy foods can not only impact your health but can speed up the aging process dramatically. Are you ready for the good news? I know I am. You can slow down the aging process. If you really want to improve the look and health of your skin you can find skin care that not only delivers younger looking skin but promotes healthy skin. A common misconception is that you can find great skin care anywhere. That simply isn’t correct. You aren’t going to find the best skin care over the counter at your local pharmacy or grocery store. Why? Because products that are meant to be on the shelf for long periods of time, for all skin types, for all ages, for all circumstances have very few active ingredients to cause real change in the skin. You may experience temporary results but will most likely be looking for something else to replace that product within a year. This is a big reason why skin care companies that make products for the general public come out with new products every year. What you need to slow the aging process are products with active ingredients for your skin type that promote healthy skin. Here are some basic things to look for based on your age. Under 30 and looking to maintain or enhance your youthful radiance? Look for products that:

Protect your skin from the sun

Add hydration

Contain antioxidants

Deeply cleanse the pores

Over 30 year and are noticing the first signs of aging like fine lines, thinner skin, and sun damage? It’s time to up the ante:

Invest in a couple of serums that penetrate the skin deeply

Use a Vitamin C serum with chelated C

Use products specific to your skin type

Get regular facials

Over 40 and have crow’s feet, wrinkles, age spots, or other clearly visible signs of aged skin? Look for these products:

Promote cell regeneration

Build collagen and elastin

Promote circulation

Penetrate the skin

The fact is your facial routine should get a little more complex as you age. You should go from a cleanser and moisturizer with SPF with the occasional exfoliation treatment (in your 20’s) to a cleanser, multiple serums, more aggressive exfoliation, more hydrating creams and a regular visit to a skin care professional. You are naturally beautiful but that doesn’t mean it is effortless to maintain or improve upon it. Treat yourself to lifelong beauty and invest in skin care practices that preserve your youth. Betty White is a perfect example of aging with grace (and humor). At 36 she was stunning and clearly looked younger. By the time she reached 53 she had visible lines near her eyes but still looked great for her age. At 90 she has much thinner skin, and heavier wrinkles than in her 50’s but she doesn’t look a day over 80. Two of Betty’s secrets are never using bar soap to cleanse her face and getting regular facials.  Your are beautiful. Keep it that way for as long as possible with smart choices in your skincare products and routine. Invest a little time and energy, and in products that focus on promoting healty skin.  Purchase products designed for your skin, your lifestyle, and your needs. We want you to enjoy growing older gracefully. Follow our blog to learn more about Tu'el Skincare and discover what we are made of.

The Dance of Free Radicals, Oxygen and Antioxidants

To truly understand aging and the skin you must first know what free radicals are and a bit about oxygen. Here is a quick chemistry lesson that should make it easy to understand. The healthy cells in your body are made up of stable and balanced atoms. These atoms have an even number of electrons. These happy atoms dance around other evenly balanced atoms in a harmonious symphony of movement. They join with other attractive, and witty atoms to become molecules. Those molecules make cells in the body. When an atom is uneven and has an odd number of electrons it is called a Free Radical. It is a high-energy atom that has no dance skills and is desperately looking to take an electron from someone else so it can be balanced. It bounces around dazed and confused and maybe a little angry and bitter. This bouncing around and taking of electrons causes a chain reaction because every electron it steals from a balanced atom turns that atom into a free radical. It’s a vicious circle of off-beat dancing and theft and destruction. All of this commotion damages cells and are believed to accelerate the signs of aging and cause disease.      

         Oxygen is good…except when it is bad. When an oxygen atom loses an electron it creates a free radical that is super charged. When environmental stress levels are high like UV or heat exposure, the Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) increase dramatically and may result in significant damage to cells.  These aren't your ordinary rhythm-less dancers. They are looking for a fight and thrive on chaos.

Antioxidants are the heros to our free radical nightmare. They fight free radicals with love. Well, actually they give free radicals what they need to be happy. Antioxidants give away electrons, thus neutralizing the chain of events that follows their path of destruction. The best part is that antioxidants don’t become free radicals by giving away an electron. They join the atom dance and couldn’t care less if they have even or odd electrons. They’re just happy to be invited to the dance at all. 

With the amazing knowledge that science has provided we know that eating nutritious foods that are rich in antioxidants and free radical fighters is extremely important. We also know that using topical products for the health of our skin is not only good for us but helps us retain and in some cases rebuilds our youthful appearance.  Using skin care focused on promoting healthy skin and neutralizing the effects of free radicals is essential. Tu’eL has combined natural ingredients, the best in cosmetic chemistry and research in developing products that cleanse, tone, protect and nourish the skin. Developed for professionals to deliver results for their clients, Tu’eL Skin Care is for every body, every skin type, every ethnicity, and every lifestyle.

Protect . Protect . Protect

A skin care professional promotes healthy skin, and relieves anxiety in their clients by helping to diminish acne, wrinkles, dark spots and other unwanted skin issues in a relaxing environment. As an esthetician if you aren’t doing this important final step for your clients then everything you are doing is almost pointless…

Sell suncare to your clients.

THE FACTS

1. Many people don’t wear sunscreen every day.

2. Many women think their makeup has enough sunscreen in it so they don’t wear sunscreen underneath.

3. All skin colors should wear sun protection all year long.

4. Skin cancer is the most common cancer in the US.

5. The most preventable skin cancer is caused by exposure to UV light from the sun or tanning beds.

6. You are a direct link to helping your clients stay informed about protecting their skin.

7. Tu’eL Skin Care has moisturizing sun care options for all skin types and conditions.

8. Over the counter suncare is fine for the body but not the best option for the face.

Extreme weather conditions can take a toll on the skin. This coupled with exposure to UV rays, and using unsuitable suncare can lead to skin damage. Your clients need a product that provides full spectrum protection, is formulated for their skin type, and made with ingredients that promote hydration. You can help prevent future problems buy simply selling suncare to your clients. The best thing your client can do to prevent premature aging is use sun protection. Tu'eL has sun protection for every skin type and for all conditions including severe cold and extreme heat. Contact us to find out more.

Ready . Set . Go 

We’ve all been there. You just finished cosmetology school and found a really cute, functional room to rent in a busy salon. The rent is reasonable as is the owner who likes your style and is willing to take a chance renting to someone brand new in the business. You sign contracts and set a start date and immediately feel overwhelmed and underprepared. You are confident in your ability to give a great facial, but you are about to start work in an empty room and aren’t really sure how to get started. Various spa catalogs have arrived in the mail selling all sorts of fancy furniture and machines, but you’re on a budget and would rather spend the bulk of your money on skin care products that can help you earn those dollars back. Here are some suggestions for the things you should absolutely make sure you have before you open:

Massage Table- Look for a table that can be adjusted manually. There’s no need to splurge on a hydraulic lift system when you’re just starting out. If your table comes with armrests and a headrest, make sure they can be removed. Ideally you want a table that can easily transition from facials to full body waxing services.

Sheets/Blankets- You want your clients to be comfortable, but 1000 thread count is not necessary. Lighter colors and patterns will be more forgiving of stains. If your room tends to get cold, consider flannel.

Pillows- Be prepared to offer all of your clients a pillow to place under their knees. It doesn’t need to be a specialized lumbar pillow. Standard bed pillows work just fine as long as they are not too soft. The same pillows will also come in handy for your pregnant clients.

Steamer- This is one of the few pieces of mechanical equipment worth buying right away. Not only does it create a more spa like atmosphere your clients will love, extractions will be much easier after a few minutes of steam.

Mag Lamp- This is crucial equipment piece number two. You cannot properly extract and treat the skin if you can’t see the client in your dimly lit room.

Bowls- Petal shaped, pink ceramic bowls are nice to look at, but they are useless if you can barely fit your fingertips in them. Choose metal mixing bowls that are large enough to accommodate your hand. You should have at least 2 bowls for water and a smaller bowl for masks.

Cart- This is another item where function should win out over appearance. A wooden butcher block cart looks great in your kitchen, but is too bulky for your esthetic room. Find a metal or thick plastic cart on casters that can easily be rolled around with one hand. A drawer is not a necessity if you have multiple shelves, but it provides a handy place to store brushes, cotton squares, gloves, and disposable spatulas. Keep in mind that your cart will be exposed to water and oils from your hands and skin care products.

Mask Brushes- There’s no need to buy expensive fan brushes from wholesale esthetics supply stores when small paint brushes from the hardware store or art supply store work just as well.

Cloth diapers- It might sound strange, but old fashioned cloth diapers make great facial towels. The really thin type are perfect for barber wraps and removing products. Your clients will never know you aren’t using expensive towels.

Shelving- Before you commit to renting, be sure to talk to the owner about where you can display your retail products. If you are limited to your treatment room, freestanding (floating) glass shelves are the perfect choice. They look modern and can easily be wiped clean.

Client drapes- Be prepared with enough facial gowns for a busy day. Keep in mind that people come in all shapes and sizes so your need drapes to accommodate everyone.

Stools- Once you get busy doing facials, you’re going to be sitting a lot. Choose a rolling stool that is comfortable to sit on for at least an hour. It’s also a good idea to keep a small step stool under your massage table for your shorter clients.

Skin Care- This is, by far, the most important investment you will make when starting your own small skin care business. It’s also the only item on this list with the power to help you earn back the money you have spent. Look for a comprehensive line that offers both backbar and retail products as well as education and great customer service. Set your facials apart from everyone else by providing skin type specific facials, and offer products that can’t be purchased at a retail location. Tu’eL Skin Care meets all these criteria and has more than 30 years of experience in the professional skin care industry.

It’s not necessary to spend a ton of money in order to open your doors and start doing facials. Many of the items listed above can be found at discount and big box stores. Costco.com has several good quality massage tables to choose from. Target and WalMart and a great source for things like bowls, linens and cloth diapers. If you’re not afraid of DIY furniture, Ikea is a good choice for carts and shelves.

It’s easy to make excuses why you can’t take a class to improve your skills in esthetics. 2014 is the year for no more excuses.

Whether you are a firm believer in making 

New Year’s Resolutions or find that setting goals as the year progresses is more your thing we would like to provide you with some inspiration for 2014.

1. Get more customer referrals. Word of mouth is one of the most successful methods of getting quality clients in your door. A recent study shows that referred clients are 18 percent more likely to stay with a business over time, than a walk-in client.

2. Offer Add-on services to your menu. If 80 percent of your clients come in for facials then incorporate a chemical peel treatment or anti-aging eye treatment to your menu. If you specialize in wax services then think about adding Vajazzling as a fun and profitable service.

3. Consult with your client. Make 2014 the year you commit to consulting with every one of your clients before their service. Even the loyal long-timers might have forgotten to tell you about a stressful lifestyle change or new medication they are taking. The consultation also gives you an opportunity to discuss their own goals for their skin making it easier for you to sell the appropriate retail products.

4. Offer more pampering amenities. Offer your clients lemon cucumber water or herbal tea before their service. Massage their hands or feet for 10 minutes while you are waiting for a mask to dry. Give them a small, individually wrapped piece of dark chocolate before they leave. These small changes won’t cost you much, but can really improve your spa’s overall image in the eyes of your clients. Most of them are looking for a relaxing and pampering experience rather than just a good treatment.

5. Revamp your retail display. Now that you are consulting with everyone who comes in for an appointment, it’s important that your retail display looks enticing. Place your best sellers at eye level. Call Eva’s Esthetics for Tu’eL skin care shelf talkers that explain product actions and benefits. Adorn the shelves with cute seasonal accents throughout the year.

Do you make resolutions for your business in addition to your personal life? Tell us about the changes you are planning to make to your spa or salon in 2014. Sometimes a little inspiration can make a big difference.

Prepare . Practice . Profit

Sarah has been practicing like crazy and now feels confident enough to offer waxing services to her paying clients. First she has to add the new services to her menu. Her training at Eva’s Esthetics taught her not to offer the exact same price to everyone since people who are especially hairy need to pay more for her time and products. She calls similar spas in her neighborhood to find a price range and then creates a menu with a “floor” and “ceiling” price for each body part. This allows her to wax anyone who walks through the door without fear of under or over charging. She’ll only quote an exact price to her customers after she meets them and sees how much hair she’ll be removing. People who come in 4 weeks after their first appointment can look forward to a slightly lower price.

With her menu updated, now she needs to reach her customers. She has a database full of email addresses so she sends an email blast telling everyone how excited she is to start offering full body waxing for men and women. For the first 30 days, she offers a special deal to new and existing customers. She gives them a $10 product credit when they pay for any waxing service. She has plenty of practice consulting with people and rebooking them every 4 weeks. Her promotion will give people the opportunity to fall in love with home care products made by Tu’eL like Clear It for after wax breakouts and Green Clean for post wax ingrown hair prevention. She’s used them herself so she can speak to her clients about the great value of using products with active ingredients that work while keeping skin healthy.

Sarah’s existing clients are delighted that she has become their one stop shop and are impressed at how quickly she waxes. Attracting new clients takes a little time, but soon word gets around and she’s busier than ever. She has set up a fun referral program that rewards clients for sending new clients her way. She loves how easy it is to contact a professional at Eva’s Esthetics for tech support. She can even get quick answers to questions on Facebook.

Sarah’s business is booming and she’s finally making more than enough money required to keep the doors open and pay her bills at home. Waxing has turned out to be a very profitable addition to her menu…she was actually able to afford to buy herself some new clothes for the first time in ages! She’s so grateful to Eva’s Esthetics for helping her each step of the way.

Prepare . Practice . Profit

Sarah is at Eva’s Esthetics Headquarters in California and has just completed her hands on Wax classes. She is impressed with how quickly she can complete her services with Berodin Wax. The Ease strip wax allows her to spread the wax over a large area before pulling the strips. She has never worked with hard wax so she’ll need to practice with the Blue. Once she is more proficient, she knows that she will be able to wax Brazilians and smaller body parts quickly without irritating the skin. Sarah was previously overwhelmed by the options available with other wax companies so she likes the idea of a clean, simple wax cart with just one strip wax and one hard wax plus a few pre and post products. She was happy to see there are a full range of post wax products to soothe irritation and reduce redness so that people leave happy with the appearance of their skin. She will be adding Clear It and Body Polish Kits to her retail shelves for clients who are prone to breakouts, bumps, and ingrowns. She knows that once she gets her clients on a regular 4 week waxing schedule, these home care products will leave them with the smooth results they were hoping for. Sarah’s confidence is up and she is ready to go home with great wax products, new skills and knowledge.  

Now at home she has to practice her new skills and promote her new services. She sends an email to all of her family and friends offering them free wax services if they agree to be her guinea pigs after her normal business hours. She is slow at first, but gains speed as she becomes more confident. Even though she’s working on people she knows, she does a full consultation with them so that she can practice rebooking and selling home care products. Some of her clients didn’t like the idea of starting a waxing regimen because they heard stories about ingrown hair and breakouts afterwards. Thanks to the education Sarah received at Eva’s Esthetics, she knows exactly how to handle this problem. She left the class with an intake form that she uses with each client to explain all possible reactions and how to alleviate them. This process is new and a little intimidating for Sarah at first. She used to just take clients back into her treatment room for small services like brow waxes with no questions asked, but soon she’s pleasantly surprised at how easy it is to sell products when she takes the time to consult with them before and after the service.

Now Sarah is ready to let her regular and new clients know about her waxing services. It's time to promote her services, take apointments, and turn her business into the profit making machine it can be.

At some point we’ve all been in the position of deciding to add services to our repertoire. The usual reasons are because of client demand, a desire for increased revenue, or the business owner requires it. Regardless of the reason, there are a few things you need to consider before diving in. Are you already skilled in the service? Will you need to purchase new products? How will you promote the service and how much are your clients willing to pay? This step by step guide will aid you in the process of adding a waxing service to your menu.

As our example we will use Sarah. She got her license 2 years ago and has been doing facials and a little bit of waxing. She mostly waxes brows, upper lips, underarms, and lower legs and wants to add Bikini and Brazilians to her menu. Sarah uses and inexpensive wax she gets at the local beauty supply store and isn’t that happy with it. Her clients don’t complain but she knows she could improve her waxing speed with a better wax. She was inspired by Lori’s waxing DVD’s, has done a few bikini waxes on a couple of people and waxes herself.

Her skill at bikini waxing is pretty good and her confidence in the service is high. Brazilian waxing is another story. She has done 3 Brazilians, all on women and all with less than great results. Not to mention the time it took to do them. Sarah needs to gain confidence, get practice, cut her time down, use better wax, and have access to live tech support when she needs it. She decides she need one on one training with an expert. She looks in the area she lives and is disappointed by the options. There are a lot of classes offered by sales reps for companies, or classes that only provide demos without hands on training, or the pricing is so high that she’d have no money left for new supplies. Sarah knows that Eva’s Esthetics offers waxing classes every month and decides to call. She finds out that the classes are reasonably priced and she will get products after the class. Students will work on each other for hands on training and male models are provided for Male Brazilian training. The instructor has been in the industry for over 20 years, is the Director of Education at Eva’s Esthetics, teaches at schools, and is a working esthetician.  Sarah learns that class sizes are small so one on one attention can be given to each student, tech support and advice are provided with wax products. She reserves her spot in the next set of two day classes and is happy to find a place that will help her improve her skills, provides superior wax products, gives tech support and will give her suggestions to help with her business.

Berodin . Education . Skill

Many beauty schools spend very little time teaching the skill of waxing. Most schools use inexpensive, sticky, gooey wax and allow for a small amount of hands-on time for practice. The saving grace for most of these schools and the students attending them, is the fact that they use the Whole Ball of Wax, Face & Body and Brazilian Waxing DVDs as educational tools.

Lori Nestore, President of Eva’s Esthetics, is featured in the Whole Ball of Wax, Face & Body and Brazilian Waxing DVDs. She gives hours of detailed instruction on how to wax various body parts including eyebrows, underarms, legs, male and female Brazilians and everything between. Lori has earned the well deserved title of Wax Queen because of her years of experience teaching students and professionals. Over the years these videos have set the standard for waxing with speed and efficiency.

These DVDs include detailed waxing techniques on various body parts as well as in depth information about the wax she uses, proper home care products for the client, and what to do when things just don’t go as planned.

If you do any kind of professional waxing and haven’t seen Lori teach at a tradeshow or haven’t seen one of our waxing DVDs, you really need to see what everyone is talking about.  If you are really serious about perfecting your waxing skills we highly recommend attending one of our wax classes. Combine the DVDs with a wax class and you will improve you speed, skill and confidence. Call us at 800-765-7597 for more information. It’s never been easier to get the waxing education you need to help you become more successful.

You will spend twice as much trying to piece together a comprehensive group of products to service your clients and provide the back bar you need.  As far as wax goes, you only need one good quality hard wax, one good quality soft wax, and the pre/post products that are designed for use with that wax. If you find a company that doesn't provide packages to business owners move on. Eva's Esthetics has several packages to fit every budget. We've been in business for over 30 years and know what it takes to open, run, and be successful in our industry.

If you don't sell retail you will never make the profit you need to stay in business. It is extremely important not to let retail products sit on your shelves collecting dust. Know your clients' skin care goals and sell them products to achieve those goals. Sell aftercare to your wax clients, every time. Your products reflect you as an esthetician, and as a consumer. Use quality products on your clients and sell quality products to them as well. Tu'eL Skin Care has a full back bar and retail line for every skin type, uses natural, top quality ingredients, has attractive packaging, and a perfect price point for your clients. Berodin Wax will save you time in your services, and money when ordering. Using quality polymers means you remove the hair the first time with a thin layer of wax. That's right a thin layer gets all the hair one time without the gooey mess, thick application, or additional time reapplying. No one needs to have 4 or 5 different kinds of wax. You need a good quality hard wax and soft wax. That's it. Keep your wax cart clean and simple and perfect your technique. Berodin Wax is the best of the best for a reason. Developed with the aide of Lori Nestore, the Wax Queen, this wax is better than any other wax you've tried and is loved by professionals worldwide.

Your skincare and wax vendor should offer education. If they don't how can they truly support you. The industry is constantly changing you need a company that knows the products they sell and knows the industry. We have been educating estheticians since...well since before there were estheticians in the US. Our founder literally wrote the book and fought for the separation between cosmetology and esthetics licensing in California. We teach waxing, skin care, body treatments and much more at Eva's Esthetics. 

Find a vendor that offers real time tech support and business support. You actually get a live person in the US who answers the phone at Eva's Esthetics. If you need advice on a facial treatment, a skin reaction, on how to sell more retail products or your wax application you can call the same number. You don't have to call your rep and hope they call you back. Just call the main number and get your questions answered. When you call you aren't just another number. You don't get the robotic staff that just wants to sell you something. You get people who want you to be successful no matter the size of your business.

Vendors should have more than a casual interest in your success. You are the main focus at Eva's Esthetics. It's not about the red carpet, celebrities, following fad ingredients that don't really work. Eva's Esthetics sells to and advocates for the licensed professional. We don't undercut their distributors or you. You won't find trendy scented waxes, glittery bottles, or cookie cutter marketing packages. We just offer the best skin care, wax, post graduate education and tech support available, and we love doing it.
