Hey beautiful, it’s Ana — your esthetician (and unofficial skin therapist).
Let’s be honest — life gets chaotic. Between the schedules, deadlines, and “I’ll do it tomorrow” moments, we tend to forget about ourselves. But here’s the truth: self-care isn’t indulgence — it’s maintenance.
You wouldn’t drive your car 50,000 miles without an oil change. So why do that to your skin?
Whether it’s winding down with our Signature Facial — a full hour of calm, glow, and reset — or giving your skin what it deserves through microneedling or a chemical peel, these aren’t luxuries. They’re investments in your confidence and wellbeing.
Because when your skin looks good, you show up differently — and that kind of energy changes everything.
✨ My SkinCeuticals Must-Haves
Here’s my current lineup of must-haves — the tried-and-true products that I personally love and recommend daily:
-
Simply Clean – Deep-cleansing perfection for post-facial freshness.
-
Replenishing Cleanser – A silky, hydrating cleanser that leaves skin baby-soft.
-
Vitamin C Serums – CE Ferulic, Phloretin CF, and Silymarin CF — the triple threat of antioxidant power.
-
P-Tiox – My new obsession. Think “Botox in a bottle.”
-
A.G.E. Lifting & Firming Serum – Lifts, tightens, and restores radiance.
-
AOX Eye Gel – Brightens, depuffs, and revives tired eyes (always AM).
-
Tripeptide-R Neck Repair – Smooths and strengthens that delicate neck area.
-
Retinol – The ultimate nighttime renewal hero.

Metacell Renewal B3 – Boosts firmness and elasticity while calming the skin.

💭 Final Thought
Your skin is a reflection of how well you take care of yourself — not your age. Whether you invest in professional treatments, high-performance skincare, or simply take an hour to relax in my treatment room, remember:
You don’t need a reason to take care of yourself. You just need an appointment. 😉
