This Huntsville-based esthetician takes the simple approach to skin care. Truly less is more, especially when it comes to maintaining the integrity of the skin and ensuring that clients have a stress-free regimen that works for their lifestyle.
Chrissy shares why she always reaches for an enzyme and you might have to hold yourself back when you read what she sometimes does at bedtime. LOL. Maybe when she sees this in writing herself, she’ll level up. LOL
Nonetheless, she offers great tips and a mindset for good skin.

I started making body products 4 years ago and I wanted to learn more about how skin worked. I decided I was going to attend school in 2018 and took the leap in 2019.
What is your specialty?
I personally love facials; however, my clients love my waxes.
What is your signature technique and approach to skincare?
My signature technique….hmm I would have to say enzymes. I absolutely swear by them!!!! All of my clients know once we get a treatment plan going, we work our way through the appropriate enzymes. My approach to skincare, I would say, I harp on making sure my clients stay hydrated and stay as simple as possible. I understand people will not do a regimen if the steps are too overwhelming.

Right now I am using all Skinscript products with a Glymed toner.
