I love, love microneedling! ❤️‍🔥
In just one service you have a smoother skin texture, less fine lines and wrinkles, increased elasticity, and an overall more youthful appearance. This is one service. With results like this, who even needs Botox?

What does this service look like?

You come in and get all cozy in a nice robe and slip into silky sheets on a heated table. I use a device with a series of needles that gyrate to create controlled punctures in the skin. Most people describe this sensation to be similar to that of an electric razor. This process generates a healing cascade that encourages the skin to start producing collagen and elastin again. As with every service at The Essence, this is performed on the entire face, neck and upper chest. I then send you home with top of the line products to use for your healing stage. Makeup, chapstick, and all other products are to be avoided for three days. You leave looking bright, glowy, and with minor redness. Any residual redness will dissipate through the day, and set you up for a bright and confident week ahead.
This service is best performed in the winter months as you’ll want to avoid the sun while healing, so book yours today!

The Essence turns lucky number 7 this year and I’m spreading the joy! I’ll be taking entries all throughout the month of February, so swipe through to see how you can be entered. ✨

I want to thank all of my beautiful clients who without you, life would simply cease to exist as I know it. Healing happens in between those walls, and it is for me as much as it is for the client on the table. I absolutely love papering humans all day, and boosting them up into the person they are. Believing this is my job sometimes is still insurmountable. I am grateful and humbled to have 7 whole years as a single shop business owner, and am constantly inspired by those who walk through my doors. A sincere thank you again to my clients, who’ve grown into friends over the years. I could not do it without you 🤍

Microneedling before and after ✨

Microneedling is effective at breaking up and reducing scar tissue, fine lines and wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation. Microneedling is a great alternative to Botox as it encourages your natural skin’s natural collagen production, helping to actually generate a more youthful appearing skin.

✨ HOT TODDY MIXES FOR SALE ✨
2oz premade bottles - $12

These premade Hot Toddy mixes are the perfect solution when you're feeling under the weather this winter. Simply mix with hot water, and kick those stubborn germs out!

Traditionally Hot Toddy's are a soothing concoction made with whiskey, cinnamon, honey and lemon. These will also include vanilla, Yerba Santa, Marshmallow root, and Reishi, as additional herbal immune boosters.

Cinnamon was used in ancient times to treat coughs, colds, arthritis, digestive and circulatory issues. It is warming, anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, can lower blood sugar, and is even being evaluated for treatment in MS, HIV, and Alzheimer's, according to Herb Society of America.

Yerba Santa, also known as the Holy Herb, clears mucus, relieves coughing, and also speeds the healing of UTI's. It works to warm and stimulate the respiratory system; reduce inflammation in the sinuses, throat, and lungs; and dry excessive mucus in the lungs or upper respiratory tract.

Marshmallow root works wonders to coat the mucosal tissues in the mouth, throat, and intestinal tract, making it your best friend through a cough, cold, or digestive upset.

Reishi is my favorite mushroom and does so many things you wouldn't believe. In this circumstance, it's going to aid with fatigue, nerve pain, calming the central nervous system, insomnia, adrenal burnout, dizziness, stress, cough, increasing white blood cell counts, and so, so much more. It truly should be called the real "Magic Mushroom".

All orders will be ready in time for Christmas 🎅🎄

Fire cider for sale!
Traditional and Cranberry - $35 ea

Fire cider is an impressive and widely-used healing tonic made of immune boosting foods like peppers, citrus, ginger, turmeric, and apple cider vinegar. Fire cider has been used among many cultures to aid with weight loss, replenishing mineral needs, general illness, leg cramps, stomach problems, fungal infections, sore throats, exhaustion, cooking, and so much more.

I personally use fire cider in my cooking recipes to enhance flavor profiles, and encourage mineral intake. I also drink it when sick, especially with head/upper respiratory illnesses. Works like a charm!

I’ll be making 2 kinds of fire cider this season, ready in time for Christmas.
1- the traditional fire cider with spicy rounded flavor profiles, and
2- a cranberry fire cider with a sweeter, warmer edge, perfect for the holidays.

Reserve yours now!

Tis the season for advanced exfoliation!! With the sun creeping away, now’s the perfect time to make headway on your big goals.

Microneedling encourages collagen production which is amazing at softening fine lines and wrinkles, breaking up scar tissue, firming lax skin, and encouraging an overall youthful appearance!

Lactic chemical peels are a very gentle way to slough off hyperpigmentation, reduce pore size and encourage a healthy glow!

Remove that stubborn hair and apply smooth makeup with ease with a dermaplane! These are also fantastic for reducing post inflammatory hyperpigmentation- which are the little dark spots we get from acne.

November is filling up fast so make sure to snag your spot to receive all the treats and none of the tricks this season 🎃
