Meet the Get Sweet Girls!

I wanted to take a minute to introduce the ladies of LOVE SUGARING SD to you and to thank you for taking the time to “like” our page and for being a part of our journey and our lives.  

LOVE SUGARING SD is based on a love for life and skin.  We are all about empowering people, especially women, to feel their absolute best.  We believe that with LOVE everything is possible and we take each and every client and treat them with such.  It may sound cheesy to some but to us it’s a word and feeling that we incorporate in every aspect of our lives.  

​LOVE SUGARING SD was started by our beautiful leader Mailette.  Most of you already know this super talented, kind and smart chica.  Mailette has been sugaring for 9 years.  She started sugaring me 3 years ago and I have been hooked ever since.  She has since trained Chandra and I with LOVE and shared her vision with us and we are excited to team up with such a compassionate, hard-working woman like her.  When asked what her favorite quote is, her response was “You ARE good enough!” 

​Chandra is the newest addition to our team, but by no means is she a rookie in any way.  She has a drive and passion that motivates and inspires those around her.  She is one of the top makeup artists in San Diego, has been featured in many bridal magazines, and she is our spray tanning queen.  She has a gentle touch and her attention to detail makes her a GREAT esthetician! Chandra is our fire ball…she’s a hard worker, she’s reliable and she’s dependable.  She loves her clients and goes above and beyond to make sure they are happy and that they feel the LOVE!

​And lastly there is me! There isn’t much to say about myself except that I’ve been an esthetician for longer than I would like to admit…lol! But I have been so blessed to do something that I absolutely LOVE with two women who encourage me to be my best on a daily basis.  I have a passion for LOVE, life and skin.  Over the next months I will be blogging on these topics and so many more.  I am open to any of your ideas or thoughts on what you would like to hear about.   Thank you for your LOVE and for opening up your life to our vision…it is a pleasure to be in your world and we’re excited to share ours with you!

7 Reasons to Get a Facial

So many people ask me "How often should I get a facial?" I always say, "it's not the frequency, it's the fact that you're doing it. You'll feel clean, fabulous and your skin will thank you"

1.          Fact: Our skin is the largest organ and unfortunately the most neglected.

2.          Skin analysis:  "You need an expert to analyze what's up"?   The only way to get a true picture of what's happening with your skin is through your skin guru (aka esthetician). Many people believe that they have one skin type, when in reality they are completely wrong.  For example, someone may believe that they have oily skin when they actually have dehydrated skin.  When your skin is dehydrated, it will produce more oil.  There is a difference between oil and water.

3.          Exfoliation:  During a facial you will get the proper exfoliation that you need, whether your skin guru uses a mechanical form (scrub, Clarisonic) or chemical form (enzyme or acid).  Our skin can hold up to fourteen layers of dead skin! Yuck! So when you are applying product it is unable to reach your live skin and feed it.

4.          Massage:  A facial massage stimulates blood flow to your skin that helps feed the skin and remove toxins.  And let’s face it, it feels good!

5.          Feeding your skin:  After the exfoliation and massage, much needed nutrients are added to your skin.   Since all that nasty dead skin is gone, the product will actually do its job.

6.          Products:  Get the products that work for you!  If your skin guru is doing his/her job, he/she will recommend a skin care regimen for you.  In this case, you really do get what you pay for.  If you want to buy drug store brand products, you will get drugstore brand results.  Investing in your skin doesn’t have to cost you your first-born.  There are many professional skin care products that will fit into your budget.

7.          Pampering: At the end of the day we can all use some pampering, right??.  In tandem, your skin is getting the nutrients it needs to look its best while you're taking one solid hour for yourself to slow down, relax and take care of your most important first impression--your face!
