Holistic Skincare Truths

Holistic Skincare Truths for an Aligned + Sustainable Routine

Here are seven holistic skincare truths that can guide you to a more conscious and sustainable approach to your skincare journey:

1. The Skin is Smarter than You Might Think
   Your skin is not just a barrier. It communicates and protects. It is a self-healing organ and responds to both internal and external cues. Your skin carries an innate intelligence and when supported properly, it can reflect your vitality. Rather than overloading the skin with products which can disrupt the skin's natural processes, trust in what the skin communicates to you, choosing care over correction.
   

2. It’s a Relationship, Not Just a Routine
   Skincare is not a practice of perfection, rather a practice of presence. Consistency is the most important part. As you create space to care for your skin, consider it to be a revered part of your day. Apply each product intentionally and mindfully so that skincare becomes a ritual. Celebrate where you are in your skincare journey.
   

3. It Can Be Simple: Minimal Products + the 80/20 Approach
   You don’t need the 12-step skincare regimen to achieve vibrantly healthy skin, but instead, you can refocus on a minimal approach that we like to call 80/20 skincare: 80% at home care and 20% professional support. Consider your clean and minimal at home care to be the daily nourishment your skin needs and the time with your holistic esthetician part of your deeper care and recalibration. Together, your skin can maintain a natural glow year round.
   

4. Intention is Just as Important as Ingredients
   The purity of a product goes beyond the label. When we choose clean, cruelty-free, and plant-powered ingredients, we are choosing to practice conscious living. Skincare that is rooted in intention, ethics, and alignment upholds our values of honoring both the body and the planet. Each product we use in our services and carry at retail embody these qualities, including our much anticipated launch, Tenfold. (You can read more about our product here.)
   

5. Skincare Should Evolve With You
   As we live and grow, the skin evolves and changes. We move through seasons, hormone fluctuations, lifestyle changes, and transformations. All of these experiences can affect how the skin behaves. Holistic skincare embraces the evolution of the self. The right esthetician can guide you and support you exactly where you are at in your journey. We’re incredibly lucky to have four talented Licensed Estheticians on staff to support you!
   

6. Glow Begins Within
   True radiance is not surface-level. In the holistic skincare ethos, the skin is said to reflect our inner world. Our glow can be further supported by proper hydration, nutrition, sleep, stress-management, emotional regulation, and intentional rest.
   

7. Presence Over Perfection
   A skincare routine does not need to be flawless. What matters most is consistency, not just in the tangible care for the skin, but during the intangible self-care that can support glowing skin such as mindfulness, positive affirmations, and confidence building. Show up for yourself with compassion.
