There’s a new sunscreen filter available in the U.S. for the first time in more than 20 years — and I’ve been curious about what that actually means for those of us who prefer mineral sunscreen.

Personally, I still reach for zinc oxide. 🤍 It aligns best with how I choose sun protection for myself and my family.

But I also believe holistic skincare can be evidence-informed. New doesn’t automatically mean better, and “chemical” doesn’t automatically mean harmful.

Bemotrizinol has some interesting safety and performance data, and I think it’s worth understanding — even if you ultimately choose to stick with mineral SPF.

Are you mineral-only, or would you consider a newer sunscreen filter?

One of my favorite parts of being an esthetician is helping young girls learn to care for their skin while keeping everything natural and age-appropriate. 🤍

Today was a little back-to-school brow cleanup for my own girl, and that smile says it all.

Whether it’s a first brow shaping, a gentle facial, or simply learning what their skin actually needs, my goal is never to change how they look—it’s to help them feel comfortable and confident in their own skin.

✨ Services for preteens & teens include:
• Gentle brow shaping
• Teen facials
• Personalized skincare education

Healthy skin. Natural beauty. Growing confidence.

5 summer habits that quietly age your skin ☀️

Sometimes it’s not the expensive products that make the biggest difference—it’s the small habits we repeat every day.

In this post, I’m sharing five simple changes that can help protect your skin, support your skin barrier, and keep your complexion healthier all summer long.

One of my favorite parts of being an esthetician isn’t just helping skin look healthier—it’s helping women slow down for a moment.

So many of us spend our days taking care of everyone else. Between work, family, schedules, and responsibilities, self-care often ends up at the bottom of the list.

My goal is to create a space where you can exhale.

A place where skincare feels less overwhelming, where treatments are personalized to your needs, and where you leave feeling cared for from the inside out.

Healthy skin is holistic. 🤍

Thank you for trusting me with your skin and self-care journey.

☀️ National Sunscreen Day ☀️

One of the simplest ways to support healthy skin long term is daily SPF.

Consistent sun protection can help support:
• collagen preservation
• hyperpigmentation prevention
• healthy aging
• reduced inflammation

I’m especially excited about Botnia’s new Gentle Sun Cream SPF 30 🌿

I’m always looking for products that feel supportive of the skin barrier while also feeling beautiful enough to wear every day — lightweight, wearable, and designed for sensitive skin.

Healthy skin is built through small daily habits over time 🤍

One year of this little cowboy 🤍

Grateful for weeks like this—hiking with my kids and finding hidden gems like this lake in Tahoe. 💙 These are the memories that fill me up and remind me why I love slowing down and being present.
