Estheticians Are a Girl's Best Friend

(2nd edition; 2016) Contrary to popular belief (and multi-million dollar ad campaigns), skin care products are not one-size-fits-all. Our skin s needs evolve and change, depending upon specific variables which determine how well the skin will age such as genetics, environmental exposure, lifestyle choices, hormones and health issues. No matter what any manufacturer, salesperson, or the media tries to tell you (and sell you), there is no anti-aging miracle product that will work for every woman. However, great skin can be simple, affordable and safe if the client is guided by a trained and licensed professional Esthetician, who can provides services and products specific to the client s ever-changing needs. This is why the first step on your path to optimal skin health and youthful glow should begin with a Licensed Esthetician -- long before committing to aggressive procedures which can be expensive, irreversible and possibly dangerous. This little book provides an overview of skin care and esthetic services, including common skin conditions, the facial experience, hair removal services, protocol for use of home care products, and updated skin cancer facts. Also discussed are the perils of purchasing professional products online, from unlicensed salespeople, and the problem of Product Diversion.
