    EPISODE 7: Us Vs Them

    Send us Fan Mail Confused about whether to see a dermatologist or an esthetician for your skin concerns? In this episode, we talk about the conversation that has been quietly happening in the skincare world for years: dermatologists vs estheticians. The truth is, it should never have been us vs them. Both professions serve very different yet very important roles in skin health, and when they work together, clients get the best results. We discuss what each profession is trained to do, what they do well, where things sometimes go wrong, and how the industry is changing. We talk about when you should see an esthetician versus when you should see a dermatologist, especially when it comes to acne, skin conditions, prescriptions, and long-term skin health. We get into real conversations about common treatments and medications like spironolactone, antibiotics for acne, tretinoin, and Kenalog injections, including the side effects we sometimes see and what clients are often not told before starting these treatments. We also talk about different skin conditions, how dermatologists typically treat it, and how estheticians approach it differently. We explain why estheticians are often better for routine skin care, maintenance, barrier repair, and acne management, while dermatologists are essential for diagnosing skin diseases, skin cancers, rashes, abnormal skin conditions, and prescription medications. The best providers refer back and forth and work together, not against each other. This episode is an honest, respectful conversation about the skincare industry, what is working, what is not working, and where we believe the future of skin health is going.

    EPISODE 4 - ACNE PART 1

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode, we talk about acne from a very personal perspective and share both of our journeys through acne, dermatologists, estheticians, skincare products, and medication. We talk about how acne ultimately led both of us into the skincare industry and how our experiences shaped the way we treat and educate our clients today. We discuss the emotional side of acne, the desperation that often comes with trying to fix your skin, and the difference between breaking out at a young age versus adult acne later in life. We also talk about the Accutane journey, transitioning from the corporate world into skincare, and the big question everyone asks. Is acne internal or external? We also explain what estheticians go through in school, the safety and sanitation protocols that are heavily taught and why they matter so much, and we talk about our mentors and the knowledge they passed down to us that we now pass on to our clients so they can better manage their skin at home.
