3 Tips to Elevate your Skin Care Routine! ✨

•Wear sunscreen DAILY! Sunscreen is one of the single most important things you can do for your skin. When applied correctly, sunscreen protects your skin against the sun’s harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays, which cause sunburn, skin cancer, and premature skin aging, like wrinkles and age spots.

•SIMPLIFY your skin care routine! Less is more when it comes to skin care. Using too many products, especially multiple anti-aging products, can irritate your skin. Instead, focus on the basics, such as a gentle cleanser, sunscreen, and moisturizer. Establish morning and nighttime skin care routines that work well for your skin, and stick with them.

•Choose skin care products formulated for YOUR skin type. Understanding your skin type will help you learn how to take care of your skin and select skin care products that are right for you.

Whether you are new to skincare, have been consistent but want help, or you're well on your way to skincare ju**ie, book your appointment and let’s get to know your skin a little more and elevate that skin care routine!

One of my favorite things for my clients that experience a lot of redness or irritated skin, is the cooling globes!!😍

I love using these during their treatment not just because they feel amazing, but because after using many different products on the skin and treating it based on it’s needs, it’s the perfect way to sooth, cool and relax my clients during their treatment ✨

If you have never had these used on your skin you NEED to try them! The link is in my bio to book your appointment! 😉📲

The products you use on your skin MATTER! ✨Our skin's barrier function is the skin's protective outer layer, so taking care of that barrier is top priority for keeping your skin happy and healthy. It helps prevent bacteria, irritants and allergens from penetrating skin.

During my facials, I don’t just focus on the face—I love treating my clients to a soothing neck and shoulder massage as well. But why is this important?

Tension often builds up in the neck and shoulders, preventing you from fully relaxing during your facial. By massaging these areas, I help release that tension, allowing you to feel more comfortable and at ease throughout the entire treatment.

Is it essential? Not exactly. But it’s one of the special touches I add to ensure you feel truly pampered and reminded that you deserve time for yourself.

Self-care isn’t selfish—it’s essential. You deserve to relax, unwind, and be taken care of. 🫶🏼

The most important thing to know about my facials?🤔

I don’t follow a one-size-fits-all approach. Every treatment is personalized, crafted in real-time based on your unique skin needs and what your skin communicates during the session.

The products I choose and the steps I take are all designed to help your skin not only look its best but feel its best too. My goal is to ensure you feel completely relaxed and pampered, using the treatments that address your skin's specific concerns and needs.

No cookie-cutter facials here—just customized care, and both your skin and you will thank me for it!💙

If you have ever seen me use these things during your treatment, you might be wondering what in the world they are! 🤣

These are Kansa wands, made from copper, tin, and zinc — a time-honored Ayurvedic tool known as the “healing metal.” 🌿

They balance your skin's pH and help remove toxins from the lymph nodes, all while reducing puffiness and bringing out that natural glow with renewed, oxygenated blood. ✨

I love pairing this treatment with a high-vitamin and mineral mask to boost brightness and reduce inflammation. 🤩

Your skin deserves this rejuvenating touch! 💖

Why Did I Become an Esthetician?

I noticed so many people visiting estheticians, following advice exactly and still feeling disheartened when their results didn’t match others'. That’s when I realized I wanted to take a different approach to skincare—one that focuses on how you view and care for yourself as a whole.

Skincare isn’t just about "taking care of your skin." It’s about taking care of yourself, especially after a long day. It’s the one thing you do for yourself when you’ve spent all day doing a million things for others.

Your skincare routine influences how confident you feel in a meeting, or when you see yourself in photos from your friend’s wedding.

My goal for every person who walks through my door is not just to help them understand their skin and find the best routine for them, but also to remind them of their unique value. I want them to know they matter and deserve to take time each day to care for themselves, to ensure their own well-being.

To all the moms, daughters, students, business women, corporate professionals, and the many amazing people who book with me—I see you. I care about you. And I’m rooting for you. 🥹

This mask isn’t just beautiful to look at 😍

Did you know that this charcoal mask is ideal for calming redness, irritated skin, and rosacea?

Infused with nourishing properties, this mask soothes your skin, helping it return to its natural, healthy state, leaving you with a fresh, glowing complexion.✨

If you struggle with any of these skin concerns, I highly recommend booking an appointment to experience the incredible benefits of this mask, along with the other carefully selected products I incorporate into my facials! 🥰

My favorite thing about giving my clients facials is not only helping them get amazing skin, but is helping them fully relax.

The massage techniques I use, doesn't just make me different out of the many of estheticans there are all around the Upstate, but it:

✨ Improves Circulation

✨Promotes Lymphatic Drainage

✨Enhances Product Absorption

✨Relieves Tension

And my favorite… Supports Mental Relaxation💙

What do I look for in a cleanser?

Gentle
Hydrating
Gel or non-foaming for pretty much everyone
Leaves your skin feeling soft and supple not dry and tight

My personal favorite is the Amandola Milk Cleanser. The smell of almond extract alone soothes my senses while the dreamy creamy magic coats my skin in hydration. It effortlessly removes make up and gives my skin a little bit of brightening exfoliation.

Cleansers are 1 of 3 keys steps in your skincare routine.

Upgrade your skincare routine with Gua Sha!

Gua Sha is an ancient Chinese medicine that uses a tool to “scrape” the skin. This increases circulation to the skin as well as reducing skin inflammation.

Bottom line, Gua Sha helps sculpt the face by removing excess fluids and helps your lymphatic system drain properly. Gua Sha helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles, reduce acne, and improves the overall health of your skin.

Nusa Holistic Gua Sha tool takes this practice to a new level. It’s easier to use, contours to the face, and allows you to target more areas at once.

Hi! I'm Amanda, licensed esthetician and owner of GEM Skin Esthetics.
Here are a few things you should know about me before you book.

I love what I do and my clients make this job less of work and more community. I love talking about skin and helping people understand skincare. The more you know, the more you're able to show up for yourself, and then we pass it on. I spent most of my life not loving myself, picking apart every flaw, and lost in a sea of beauty trends I couldn't keep up with.

I am a mom of 4 boys. A certified people pleaser. A woman who was so use to being on the back burner I thought anything I did for myself was selfish. I found skincare in 2018 and started the slow process of learning how to put myself first in small ways by just washing my face every night.

A lot of women struggle with these same things but for too long we have not had a voice. We take our voice back by taking back our power. Society's beauty standards have been outdated and unrealistic for decades. It's time for us to do something about it.

When you book a facial you get an education based consultation where you are free to ask questions without judgement. Your facial experience is customized to your skin and you can talk through the entire session or simply relax. Once we are done and you're glowing I give you tips to take home. 80% of how you achieve your skin goals are done at home.

Whether you are new to skincare, have been consistent but want help, or you're well on your way to skincare ju**ie I can't wait to meet you!

Fun Fact!

Your shampoo and conditioner maybe causing your acne.. It's better to wash your face after you wash your hair so that you're cleaning any leftover residue off your skin. My go to method is to do my oil cleanse on dry skin, rinse it off in the shower and then do my second cleanse once I get out.
**Avoid hot showers if you choose this option

Let your hair dry before going to bed. Wet hair is more fragile and prone to breakage.
