Professional vs. Drugstore Skincare: Why the Results Aren’t the Same
When I first started my esthetics career, I believed drugstore skincare was “good enough.” But after years of experience and seeing clients transform with professional lines like GlyMed+, Jan Marini, and Colorescience, I’ve learned the results aren’t even close. Here’s what makes professional skincare truly worth it.

Are Toners Necessary? What They Do (and Don’t) Do for Your Skin
Toners have come a long way from their old role of balancing skin’s pH after harsh cleansers. Today, cleansers are already pH-balanced, but toners still earn their place in a routine with targeted benefits like hydration, soothing, exfoliation, oil control, and even skin defense. Think of “toner” as an umbrella term. Modern formulas can hydrate, calm, nourish, or refine your skin depending on the type you choose.
