✨ SKIN TIP FRIDAY: More skincare doesn't always mean better skincare.
When it comes to professional esthetician products, it can be tempting to think that if a little is good, MORE must be better.

But your skin doesn’t necessarily need half the bottle. 😉

Professional products are often formulated with concentrated ingredients, meaning a small amount may be all you need.
Using too much product can be wasteful—and depending on the product and your skin, layering too many active ingredients can potentially leave your skin feeling irritated or overwhelmed.

The goal isn't to use ALL the products. It's to use the RIGHT products in the RIGHT amounts.

That's one of the reasons working with a professional esthetician can be so helpful. Your skin doesn't need a 12-step routine just because TikTok told you it does. 😂

✨ Less product. More intention. Happier skin.

🦠 SKIN TIP FRIDAY: Your makeup brushes might be dirtier than you think🫣

You wash your face every day… but when was the last time you cleaned your makeup brushes?
Your brushes can collect oil, dead skin cells, makeup residue, and bacteria over time. Then you put all of that right back onto your freshly cleansed face. 😬
And that can contribute to clogged pores, breakouts, and irritated skin.

✨ A good rule of thumb: Clean your frequently used makeup brushes regularly, and don’t forget to replace brushes and sponges when they’re worn out, damaged, or impossible to properly clean.

Your makeup should be helping you feel fabulous—not giving your skin an unwanted science experiment. 😂
When was the last time YOU washed your makeup brushes? Be honest. 👀

💕Heads-Up💕

I will be taking some time away from the salon and will be out through September 4th.

I will be back in the salon and ready to see you all after that. Thank you for always being so understanding and supportive! 🫶✨

🤯 SKIN TIP FRIDAY: Cellulite is normal🤯

Let's talk about something that gets WAY too much hate: cellulite!!!
Cellulite is a completely NORMAL skin feature caused by the way fat sits beneath the skin and connects with the underlying tissues.

💎And here's something worth remembering:
Cellulite does not mean you're unhealthy, out of shape, or doing something wrong.
It happens to people of all SHAPES, SIZES, AGES, and FITNESS levels—including people who are incredibly ACTIVE.🤔

There are treatments and skincare options that may help improve the appearance of cellulite, but you don't need to “fix” your body just because you have it.

🎈So today, we're giving cellulite a little less shame and a LOT more normalizing.

Your skin doesn't have to be perfectly smooth to be beautiful.

Be Honest 😂
Okay, we’re putting the judgment-free rule into effect today…
What’s ONE skincare or beauty habit you know you probably should be doing… but you just don’t? 👀

👇 Confess below. Susan promises there’s NO judgment.
Is it…
🧼 Washing your face before bed
🧽 Washing your makeup brushes
💧 Drinking enough water
🧴 Actually moisturizing
☀️ Wearing sunscreen
🙅‍♀️ STOPPING yourself from picking at your skin
✨ Or something completely different?
We’ve all got one.

Drop yours in the comments — let’s make this a judgment-free confession booth. 💕

💧 SKIN TIP: Have you had enough water today?

Your skin can tell when you’re not giving your body enough hydration.
When you’re dehydrated, your skin may look DULL, feel DRY or tight, and those little FINE LINES can appear more noticeable. Drinking enough water supports your body from the inside out—and your skin is part of that equation!

So before you reach for another skincare product, ask yourself:
“How much water have I actually had today?” 👀

Grab your water bottle, take a few sips, and consider this your friendly reminder from Susan. ❤

✨ Hydrated body = happier skin!
Your hydration needs can vary based on your activity level, climate, and overall health.
