Day by Dae Skin

If I could restart esthetics school, I’d spend less time chasing trends and more time mastering the fundamentals.

📚 Learn skin physiology.
🧪 Learn ingredients.
🔬 Learn how to evaluate claims instead of accepting them at face value.

And when you’re looking for a mentor, do your homework.

Don’t choose someone simply because they’re popular.

Choose someone who teaches you how to think, not just what to buy.

The more you understand the science of skin, the easier it becomes to separate evidence-based education from marketing.

That’s how you protect your clients, your reputation, and your investment in your career.

WHAT WOULD YOU DO DIFFERENTLY? HOW CAN YOU USE YOUR TIME IN SCHOOL TO PREPARE YOU FOR LIFE AFTER SCHOOL?

New estheticians: STOP treating aftercare like an afterthought. 👏🏾

If you just performed an aggressive peel, the skin’s job is recovery—not more correction.

The best estheticians aren’t just treatment-focused; they’re ingredient-focused. Every recommendation should answer one question:

“What does the skin need right now?”

Barrier repair, hydration, protection, and healing will always outperform over-exfoliation.

Know the WHY behind your ingredients, not just the protocol. 💡

New estheticians, stop putting pressure on yourself to know everything on day one. Growth happens when you’re willing to learn, ask questions, and find your people. 🤍

If you’re struggling with protocols, ingredients, clients, confidence, or simply figuring out your next step, reach out. We all started somewhere.

You don’t have to build your esthetics career alone.

Intentional treatments create results! Each protocol should be custom to the client lying in front of you. Understand the why and change the game!

What’s one subject or treatment you may have learned in school that you wish you knew more about in depth?

New esthetician advice ✨ Stop comparing your Chapter 1 to someone else’s Chapter 10. Every successful esthetician started with no clients, limited resources, and a dream. Focus on mastering your skills, building confidence, and growing your esthetics business one client at a time.

New estheticians, hear me out… 👇🏽

You do NOT need a treatment room full of fancy equipment to get results.

You already have your most valuable assets:
✨ Your hands
✨ Your brain
✨ The products you learned with in school

Too many estheticians are chasing machines before they’ve mastered ingredients, protocols, and skin analysis.

A client doesn’t care how expensive your equipment is if their skin isn’t improving.

Learn ingredients.
Master protocols.
Understand WHY you’re using each product.
Perfect your technique.

Then, as your income grows, save and invest strategically in equipment that enhances what you already know how to do.

The machine doesn’t create the result.
The esthetician does.

Stop focusing on what you don’t have and start maximizing what you do have.

Results are built through knowledge, consistency, and intentional protocols—not shiny objects.

Master the craft first. The equipment can come later. 💛
