CLIENT SPOTLIGHT
This job started as a 'quick fix' to her outdated WordPress website. But, after discussing things a little we decided it was time to upgrade things and really highlight the beauty that is Julie Musgrave, her gorgeous spaces and her impeccable work. ((I've secretly been dying to get my hands on her project for a couple of years now.)) The universe timed this perfectly, of course! I LOVE every page of her new site! We also reworked her branding, fancied up some business cards, touched up her intake forms and spent an afternoon capturing the perfect images and headshots for all of her social media needs - a cohesive and professional package. Check it out here - www.theskinspot.org. In need of brows, lash lift or a fabulous facial? Well, now you know where to go for that. You can book appointments straight through her 'Services' page. How fancy! Find her on Facebook The Skin Spot and give her a like! Just for fun, the BEFORE screenshot is in the comments below.
Lash lift is the NEW hot topic instead of eye lash extensions and guess what? There are people in the building who offer this! Blush & Bobby Pins The Skin Spot

What’s your skincare regimen doing for you? I’ve switched mine for the heat 💦of summer and to help combat hyperpigmentation due to the extra exposure and long summer 😎days. I’m loving the brightening qualities of +brightening and I always switch to in the heat of summer. My skin glows and is not only protected from damage but I’m also preventing premature aging. Would you like to learn more?

Search no more: SkinCeuticals has the right sunscreen for you. These professional favorites provide high UV protection for all skin types, tones, and lifestyles.

Let's talk for a moment about what makes a sunscreen a GOOD sunscreen in my world. Any sunscreen that has UVA UVB protection provides broad spectrum protection. The ingredients do make a difference in the protection. Zinc is KEY! Zinc offers a 100% physical filter. The 4 shown here are all 100% physical and provide UVA/UVB protection.

Lets's break down the benefits between the 4 (my favorites)

1️⃣ Physical Fusion: Physical Sunscreen slightly tinted. Best pressed into skin for even coverage
2️⃣ Sheer Physical UV Defense: Physical Sunscreen. Dries clear: great for men and love for tops of hands. I keep this in my car.
3️⃣ Physical UV 50: Thicker sunscreen that can double as moisturizer. This is a great one for starting kids with a routine because it can be applied directly after cleansing.
4️⃣ Physical Matte SPF 50: Physical sunscreen. A mousse like texture. Best pressing into skin. Long lasting in humid 💦 conditions.

Now here's a question: do you reapply sunscreen?

Did you know if you apply in the morning then have lunch or walk in full sun you should reapply? Simply applying sunscreen once in the morning doesn't give you the protection if you are exposed to the sun 🌞. Wear a hat 👒. Look for shade ☂️ eat under a tree 🌳

Sometimes on action sets many others into motion. Colleen and I do go way back: to my early days as an esthetician working for David & Mary. I learned so much working there albeit such a short time. I've been a solo esthetician much longer than worked with her there. Working solo as an entrepreneur has allowed me the freedom to be a mom and be present for my boys 👩‍👦‍👦. I get to attend games and practices. I volunteer at school. I even get to go on the field trip this month with my youngest. The first in 2 years 🚌.
Have you ever started one habit and that allowed another good one? Is your routine on point? 💆‍♀️ I'm going to reintroduce retinol in my night routine starting tonight. I tend to do Mondays as a reset.
Tell me below what new thing you want to try this week (or next)👇 👇 👇

Timeline photos 03/08/2022

Slugging is a hot topic on TikTok. There are two ways to do this and one way to AVOID!
Slugging in the esthetics world is not new at all. I often refer to this as a creating a barrier on the skin to allow continued use of keratolytic skincare products such as retinol and tretinoin among others. Often at the onset of use of such products you can experience irritation and redness : even shedding and peeling skin. It's important not to quit using the product or you continually have to start again. My advice is to continue use with a barrier cream before the retinol cream to give the skin a little break. I personally like SkinCeuticals and 💦
It's also important to remember to increase frequency only when skin tolerates. What does this mean exactly? Try using retinol cream one night a week for a month, then increase frequency to two nights for a month and so on until you get used to the new product.
NOW for the TRENDY slugging method: applying the thick layer of vasoline or aqua-phor OVER your regimen at night. This creates an occlusion of skincare making them somewhat more likely to absorb.
Two ✌️very important things to know:
1. DO NOT OCCLUDE OVER RETINOL. this could create more irritation by increasing the potency.
2. If you want to try occluding over your regular skincare routine (please dm if you don't have a regular night time regimen) I suggest doing so 1-2 hours before you go to bed to prevent staining your pillowcase.

BONUS tip: If you have acne I do not recommend occluding skincare; however I do like the use of vasoline, aquphor or hydra balm for acne clients before swimming in chlorine. Chlorine can irritate and dry the skin causing acne to flair. Try a thin layer before you take a plunge if acne plagues you. 🏊‍♂️

I would love to hear from you! Have you ever tried any of these tips?
Have you experienced the dreaded peeling and redness after trying retinol cream?

Doing the thing you love is described as not working. I am here to say I LOVE what I do AND I work very hard at it. I have decided to personally not offer body waxing in my menu. Not to worry: Courtney is stepping in to continue for me. You can continue scheduling online in the same way.

This allows me to continue to focus on skincare which is what I truly love doing. I've perfected my treatment room from the linens and weighted blanket to the products and menu. I've updated my list of facial services and many will notice a few changes. As I grow I learn about different modalities and I'm excited to introduce these. I have been accepted in a continuing ed program through SkinCeuticals and will soon be sharing what I learn. ⠀

I do have a price increase effective March 1. The price of everything is increasing from shipping to wax sticks. Gloves are not only hard to find (I'm picky) but have tripled in price. As a small business owner its always difficult to raise prices.

Now I would love to hear from you: what do you love/hate about a facial? ⠀

I love the massage and could skip extractions. Dermalplaning is my favorite thing to get and receive. It's INSTANT gratification. ⠀

Hi. It’s julie owner of . I’ve been an esthetician 17 years this March! The changes in the beauty industry are always a challenge but I love to get down to the science and understand how the skin works. I’ve just started down a new education journey in & I can’t wait to see where this journey leads. Fun facts: my favorite product is still I apply this every morning and know that I’m nourishing my skin in the best way to prevent damage. The last book I read: anxious people and I loved it. I find owning a small business to be a love hate relationship. I love the freedom! My favorite workout: I like to get up and get it done! Favorite vacation spot: Maui and the Virgin Islands tie. I have great memories of both. Self care in small ways everyday make big changes. Let me help! What’s your favorite self care ? 🤷🏻‍♀️

It's not just a facial... sometimes it's a therapy session. Have you ever gone in for a personal service and the provider asks questions like "so what would you like today?" While I will at times confirm what appointment has been scheduled so we are on the same page, I also pride myself in being able to read my client. Today for instance this beautiful lady came in after a recent foot surgery. She mentioned how much she had been looking forward to today, then proceeded to tell me that the elevator is out and she had to walk up the stairs ( in a boot). I read immediately that she needed intense relaxation and not a single word during her treatment. Lights lowered, music perfect, weighted blanket, pillow under the foot to get her as comfortable as possible. This is why you choose the solo esthetician who has put in the effort and time in preparing the space and perfecting the service. I am hyper aware of every detail and the devil is in the detail.

I would like to remind each of you who have read this far to lean into your self care this holiday season! As a matter of fact I would love to challenge you to tag me doing your self care for the next 10 days. This can look like anything that provides a moment for you to be in your own head.
🦵 🦵 legs up a wall
🌬️ taking a moment for intentional breathing
🌳 walk outside
👣 put your feet on the earth
🙏 yoga
for a few suggestions. Everyone's ideal of self care looks different and while I LOVE being the source of self care for many of you I cannot see you everyday HOWEVER you need to take time for self care EVERYDAY!
I would love this idea to spread too. Lets hashtag and tag so I can see your good work!

Do you double cleanse?
🚿 An easy and effective anti aging tip: Double cleanse every single night before lights out 🛏️
You can use the same cleaner twice ✌️to make it simple or use a cleanser to remove makeup and the rest of the day like the gentle cleanser from Skinceuticals then follow with a corrective cleanser to help decrease fine lines, blackheads, brighten, or even treat acne. I can help find the best cleanser (s) for you and you'll notice a difference in the tone and texture of your skin within days.

So sitting at a women’s workshop a couple weeks ago this question came up over and over again. I used to be able to say my why with precision and poise in a rehearsed manor. As I sat there with the question swirling over and over I realized my ‘why’ has changed. I’ve been really focused lately on what matters most. The answer for me is different if thinking of personal or business but ultimately it’s to pursue a healthy happy lifestyle. I love helping women build confidence by educating them on healthy skin habits. So many from my generation ( we will not talk numbers here 👸🏻) spent time tanning and using terrible products because taking care of ones skin wasn’t a ‘thing’ like it is now with zoom and Instagram and FaceTime and all the ways we have to connect digitally. I’ve learned so much about making simple changes in habits we already have established that make a real difference in the health and esthetic of our skin. Do you have a regimen? Are you happy with your results? Let me help you get there! Drop a 💕 if you know your why! I’d love to hear yours. I offer free consults either via phone, zoom or In person!

Nothing makes me do a happy dance quite like a client telling me my services helped them feel more confident and help them see the benefits of self care. We all need self care and it comes in so many different forms. What do you do to take care of YOU? 🤌🏼💅🏼💆🏻‍♀️💃🏻🌿🌸🌤 Even small moments count. It’s important to celebrate and reward ourselves from time to time. So I’ll just be over here doing my happy dance reveling in the small stuff that I don’t want to miss 🙌🏻💃🏻. Have you had any recent victories? How do you celebrate ?

Has anyone ever said this to you? Success is largely determined by ambition and luck truly has very little to do with it. I’ve been fortunate (lucky) to find something I passionate about: helping other out their best face forward. I’ve been lucky to be surrounded by a group of mostly women who support and surround me when I’ve needed it most. I’ve worked very hard to keep them coming back by giving them what they need. What do you need to put your best out into the world? Let me help you with your skin goals. You’ll help me continue to work hard! It’s a win win

But what if I sign up for the wrong facial🥺🤷🏻‍♀️. No problem! We would never provide a service that your skin can’t handle. We evaluate your skin at each appointment and always reserve the right to change the treatment based on what we see. We also may ask questions about plans in the coming days if we’d like to do something deeper. Planning the treatment around a big event, vacation or beach ⛱ trip, even family photos 📷 is how we perfect the treatment best for you! 💁🏻‍♀️. Facials are such a great option for self-care (especially those of you with kids…you get to quietly lay down. What’s better than that?) 🤷🏻‍♀️🤫. What’s your go-to form of self-care? We love 🐶walks, yoga, binge watching 🖥 Netflix, painting, writing, being outside! 🌏

So there I was, on a boat in the middle of nowhere…

meeting my dear friend Tracy and her Dad to celebrate her 50th birthday! Traveling alone, to the caribbean in the middle of the night, during a carnival! Sounds like a recipe for disaster but it was one of the most memorable trips of my life! We barefoot sailed for 5 days with PDaddy as the captain and Tracy and I his crew. I learned that I LOVE to SAIL. i would take that trip again in a heartbeat.

Let me back up a bit. Sometimes you just have to jump at opportunities..like saying yes before you’re ready, or opening up your own practice, or sailing on the boat in the middle of nowhere 😂

I've always loved spontaneity, but lately I've struggled to get my fix. Kids, work, Pandemics... Saying yes to Carli has been a big plus. I'm excited to watch her learn and grow and see what the futures holds. Being a child of the universe means that your story is already written and sometimes you just have to say yes.

I share all this to encourage you to take the leap. Even if you’re not sure, even if it feels scary, because it could be one of the best things you’ll ever do in your life.
What’s something you “took the leap” on and it paid off?
