ASCP Esty Talk

Estheticians are notoriously good at caring for others but neglecting our own self-care. If estheticians aren't mindful of our wants, needs, and self-care, we burn out, hit a wall, and aren't there for our clients. In this episode of ASCP Esty Talk, Maggie and Ella discuss their self-care habits and rituals as well as the importance of daily personal check-ins.

On December 29, 2022, President Biden signed into law the Modernization of Cosmetics Regulation Act of 2022 (MoCRA).

With the new standard of free two-day shipping, the world has opened to reveal a bounty of "things" available to consumers. We can find just about anything we think we need, and even more that we absolutely don't. This rings true in the beauty industry with products that make us prettier and devices that could cause damage. In this episode of ASCP Esty Talk, Ella and Maggie examine the blurred lines between products that make us feel independent and those that could give the professional industry a bad rap.

Tune in to see if any of her reasons resonate (or don't) with your experience as an esthetic professional and what she could have done to rise above and banish burnout.

AHAs and BHAs, both amazing skin exfoliants, offer a lot of options, like glycolic, lactic, and salicylic acids. But these are just the basics, and in the world of cell turnover, there is so much more to choose from. In this episode of ASCP Esty Talk, Maggie and Ella discuss what makes an acid an AHA and a BHA, plus they explore some not-so-basic options.
