Who are Estheticians?
Estheticians are licensed, skincare specialists. As licensed professionals in skincare, their most popular skill set is to cleanse and beautify the face and body to enhance a person’s appearance.
When working in the service industry, an esthetician will perform a wide variety of tasks like:
-
Perform skin analysis for clients
-
Prescribe treatment plans and products regimens for healthier skin
-
Wax unwanted hair
-
Prep and cleanse the skin before makeup applications
-
Apply makeup and eyelash extensions
-
Coach clients on how to care for their skin at home
-
And so much more!
However, the service industry is just one nugget of the beauty world. Estheticians can work in blogging/vlogging, education, product launches, marketing, advertising, and in the faces of entrepreneurs worldwide -- advocating and creating the future of skincare.

Throughout our Skin Care programs, you will learn to analyze and develop treatment plans for your clients. Also, you'll obtain a strong foundation in anatomy, physiology, business, career development, state laws and regulations in terms of the service industry, and skincare-related requirements.
Our program provides instruction on facials, makeup, product chemistry, and hair removal. On top of this, you will learn to prescribe home care and recommend follow-ups to your clients that want to achieve specific skin goals.
Join us to gain the skills you need to work in an ever-growing beauty and wellness industry.
