I became interested in the skin when I started suffering from the dreaded teenage breakouts. I knew it was normal, but I wanted to know why the skin went through these changes. I wanted to know what ingredients would help these skin conditions. As I started high school, I had tried everything on the shelf. (Clean and Clear, Neutregena, Aveeno... Literally everything!) I noticed my skin was fairly clear, but much more sensitive than it was in the first place. This is when I decided to take matters into my own hands and try the natural route! I began using a lot of homemade skin remedies and natural alternatives to some of the harsh ingredients that were found in these over-the-counter cleansers.
The end of high school was near and the anxiety of what I was going to do with my life was setting in. I finally realized I had such a natural interest and passion for the skin- why don't I just go to Esthetics school? And so it was. I graduated from high school 7 months early and started Esthetics school at 17.
Actually learning about the skins anatomy and how it works took my knowledge about the skin to a whole different level. Understanding ingredients, how they penetrate, and which layer of the skin they effect helped me understand skin care and the importance of what you put on your skin. Esthetics school turned my passion into a career and I couldn't be happier!
