Yearly in November (his birthday month) when he was alive, we did ‘The FLO-vember Problem” the place we dedicated to a well being objective and did it daily for the month. (We normally did burpees, ugh!) Me and the group have continued this custom and it’s all the time a reminder of the significance of excellent well being and retains his spirit round.

Estheticians and Dermatologists Unite

One of many issues I really like most about being within the magnificence business is the folks I get to satisfy and be taught from. This business has a few of the brightest, most modern, artistic folks, and I by no means get uninterested in studying from them.

An enormous spotlight in November was not solely getting to talk for the second yr on the Science of Skincare Summit however this yr I performed three roles: I used to be a speaker, the co-chair of the esthetician monitor and an exhibitor showcasing our line. What’s tremendous cool about this summit is that it brings estheticians and dermatologists collectively. That is very uncommon. All of us have the identical goal, which is to assist enhance lives by bettering pores and skin however our approaches will be completely different and we haven’t all the time performed nicely collectively within the sandbox.

That is now altering and we have now a newfound respect for each other for the way we view and deal with pores and skin and this summit is an instance of that. It was an honor to be on a panel with well-known dermatologists (like Dr. Pimple Popper!) representing my fellow estheticians.

I’ll once more be the co-chair subsequent yr so if you’re a licensed skincare skilled, please be part of me.
