The Real Skin Savant

I’ve been dreaming about the different products in this line for years, but this one came to me so vividly.

I could see exactly what I wanted it to be: a product that delivered real results, but also created an experience you would genuinely look forward to every day. I could picture the texture, the feeling, the jar—EVERYTHING.

Seeing The Prep Pads come to life like this is almost impossible to put into words. As a founder, you carry an idea in your head for so long and hope the finished product can somehow live up to it. This one exceeded what I imagined.

I’m so inspired. So proud. And honestly, just so happy.

The Prep Pads launch 9.9. The dream is becoming real. Lenox and Sixteenth 🤎💪🏻🎯

People ask me all the time, “But who does your face?” or “Who’s the best person to see?”

And I get it. It’s a completely normal question. I would want to know that too.

But the truth is, I don’t have one person.

Every provider Skincare By Amy Peterson has touched my face in some capacity. They’ve injected me, lasered me, treated my skin, mapped my anatomy, tested protocols on me. Because I would never hire someone, train someone or put someone in a treatment room who I wouldn’t trust with my own face.

Of course, experience is earned over time. We have providers at different stages of their careers, and we’re very intentional about matching each provider with the treatments and services that reflect their training, experience and skill level. There is a long training process to be here, with in-house clinical trainers, constant education, hands-on training, case reviews and oversight.

Some of our providers are more visible on social media. Some barely post at all. That isn’t a reflection of who is “better.”

I’m incredibly proud that when someone comes into our practice, the trust doesn’t have to live with one person.

It lives in the standard we’ve built as a team.

And that’s exactly how I always wanted this practice to feel. Skincare By Amy Peterson

Happy birthday to the love of my life.

People always say, marry your best friend. Marry the person who makes you laugh. Marry someone who challenges you, believes in you, and makes you better.

Somehow, I married all of those things.

But more than anything, I married someone who loves so deeply. Who adores his family. Who I can hear silently cheering me on all the time. “Babe. Babe. Babe.” Who makes the people around him believe they can do more, learn more, and be just 1% better.

Eric is one of the most curious people I have ever met. He wants to understand everything. He asks a million questions. He is constantly learning, constantly pushing himself, and somehow always teaching the rest of us something along the way.

He is also one of the hardest-working and most brilliant people I know. Yes, he’s a neurosurgeon. But I’ve watched him stretch himself so far beyond the thing he already mastered. I’ve watched him become an entrepreneur, an innovator, a CEO. I’ve watched him walk into rooms where he didn’t know everything and decide he was going to learn. His determination is relentless, and it inspires me every single day.

And with all of those accomplishments, the thing I admire most about him will always be the father he is. Our boys get to grow up watching a man who works incredibly hard, stays endlessly curious, loves his family fiercely, makes everyone laugh, and never stops trying to become better. There is no title or accomplishment that could make me prouder than that.

I am so proud of the man you are, Eric. Proud of everything you’ve built, everything you’re still dreaming about, and especially the life and family you’ve created around you.

Apparently two Leos aren’t supposed to work. I still disagree. You just have to know when to let the other one roar. And I think we’ve gotten pretty damn good at it.

Happy birthday, Babe. Your boys absolutely adore you. I adore you. And I hope you know how incredibly loved, admired, and celebrated you are today.

There is no one I would rather do this life with. ❤️

If you feel a certain way about a product, make sure to share it with the brand… most of us building our dream brands (Lenox and Sixteenth), are obsessed with reading every single message. I know I don’t miss one!

Even if it’s a quick text!

Your reminder to share every piece of feedback with the brands you use and love, it means the world to the founder 🤎

What I hear: “You have great skin.”

What I see: great skin but also pigment, redness, pores, texture, laxity, scars, fine lines and a running list of things I can improve.

And by the way, I absolutely do work on those things. I believe when I look my best, I feel my best. For me, there’s a direct correlation, and I’m not afraid to say that.

But I think there’s a much bigger lesson in this.

We are so much harder on ourselves than anyone else is.

We stand inches from the mirror. We zoom in. We notice every pore, line, spot and scar. And then we assume everyone else is seeing exactly what we’re seeing.

They’re not.

I’ve spent more than 20 years in aesthetics, and one of the reasons I love this field so much is that we have incredible tools to help people look and feel like the best version of themselves. I’ll continue using them myself too.

Improvement and perfection are two very different things.
There is no such thing as perfect skin. There is healthy skin. Well maintained skin. Skin you continue to invest in and improve.

So work on the things that bother you. I certainly do. Just remember that the tiny thing you’re obsessing over is probably something no one else even noticed. 🤎Skincare By Amy Peterson
