For the first time in history, and after a very successful 3.5 years in business, I'm here to share a significant chapter in our journey of The Evolve Shop. Our virtual doors will be temporarily closed until further notice. Rest assured; this is not a tale of defeat, but a testament to the power of change.

The Evolve Shop was born out of sheer resilience in the face of a global pandemic and my little e-commerce shop became a beacon of hope amidst the darkness. An unwavering commitment to survival in my career. Instead of feeling defeated by circumstance, I chose to rise like a Phoenix from the ashes of uncertainty. I did my morning and evening routine on stories everyday and when the orders started coming in, I infused extra love into each package of the carefully crafted selection of products that were finding homes in the hearts of kindred spirits near and far.

But as the stars realign and the winds of change are blowing strong, a revolution is in progress. I’ve realized that it's time for me to step back, to reevaluate, and to reimagine the possibilities that lie ahead.

This isn't a goodbye; it's a moment of profound reflection and growth. It’s a time for me to wipe the slate clean, rebuild and embrace my purpose more fiercely. I envision a future where The Evolve Shop will become an even safer and even more special place for all in need. Filled with ethical brands that truly align with my deepest values.

As we navigate this transformation, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you who has supported me along this heart centered journey. Your unwavering love and encouragement have fueled the flames of my wildest dreams, and for that, I am eternally grateful.

In the spirit of revolution, I encourage you to seek out other Licensed Aesthetician vendors, the life blood of this industry, instead of big box retailers. It is through supporting one another and supporting small business that we can build a world where passion and innovation thrive, making it a better place for generations to come.

Though our virtual doors may be closed for now, my heart remains open, brimming with excitement and anticipation for what's to come. 💖

We like to think of serums as concentrated bottles of magic that help to target fine lines, congestion, texture and pigmentation/sun damage/melasma.

One of our favorite serums in The Evolve Shop is Pro-Heal. This advanced serum combines Vitamin C, Olive Leaf Extract, Vitamin E and botanically sourced Vitamin A to help provide unparalleled antioxidant and healing properties. It is excellent for treating rosacea, cystic acne, insect bites and many forms of dermatitis.

Benefits:
💥 Offers soothing relief from itching.
✨Reduces inflammation and redness.
💥Provides UV photo-protection.
✨Kojic Acid and Arbutin help to control hyperpigmentation.
💥Zinc Sulfate enhances wound healing and is anti-inflammatory.

Our team refers to this serum as LIQUID GOLD! 🤤

Recommended for all skin types but particularly magical for dry skin, compromised barriers, and any inflammatory skin conditions. Link in Bio to shop!

The Dermaplane Glow Treatment! ✨

This is a 45 minute facial designed to specifically target dead skin, dullness and peach fuzz baby! It’s a no-downtime treatment and begins with a steamy double cleanse, heated aromatherapy towels, a customized enzyme treatment and is followed by dermaplaning which can be described as a “deep shave” to remove peach fuzz/dead skin and reveal glowing, baby soft skin. We end this magical experience with a sculpting facial massage. 😍😍😍

✨Warning✨
MAY create a new addiction to dermaplaning! But don’t worry, your hair will never grow in darker or thicker as that is biologically impossible for the type of hair we’re removing which is called “vellus” and differs from the type of hair we more traditionally remove.

DMK Oxygenated Muscle Banding ✨⁣

This emerald coloured masque that is feathered on top of our Oxygenating Enzyme Treatment works by physically strengthening and contouring the muscles of the face and neck. Results are cumulative, so the more treatments, the better the results - similar to working out! Quicker results are obtained from regular treatments because of our muscle memory. I typically recommend a series of 4-6 in a row, 2-3 weeks apart if the goal is to tighten, lift and firm! Weekly treatments can also be done for the ultimate glow-getter. 😎💫⁣

True Oxygen Therapy instantly lifts/firms the skin and helps to restore optimal skin functioning, and muscle banding is the cherry on top! 🍒 ⁣

It feels like concrete setting on your face and you’ll experience intense pulsing throughout - an indication that fresh, nutrient dense blood is surfacing and circulating to awaken your complexion and completely revive your precious skin! ✨✨✨⁣

MY TOP TIPS FOR NEW AESTHETICIANS 🤗✨⁣⁣
Specialize — Find your niche! Develop a deep understanding of how skin functions and then figure out what you really enjoy doing. Trying to master it all will result in not being very good at anything.⁣⁣
✨⁣⁣
Network — find other people in your vicinity who specialize in things your clients will ask you about. If you’re a medical aesthetician, find a great dermatologist, plastic surgeon, massage therapist, chiropractor, etc.! Create an honest referral system.⁣⁣
✨⁣⁣
Subscribe & Study — , , , , , and many more! Study every day. Our industry is changing by the minute so develop the mindset of being a forever student! ⁣⁣
✨⁣⁣
Follow — other professionals in your specialty. Develop a loving, supportive online community. These people will inspire you daily and help you grow in more ways than you could ever imagine. ✨⁣⁣
Get involved — find a cause you are drawn to and get involved in local fundraising. Donate your services! Surround yourself with a driven, positive community. ⁣⁣
✨⁣⁣
Attend — try to go to as many conferences & shows and virtual trainings as you can, especially if you live in a city like Las Vegas or Los Angeles that hosts them often! Volunteer to work at the booths of different skincare lines that you like/use/carry. They always need extra hands! ⁣⁣
✨⁣⁣
Visualize — Develop “tunnel vision” and focus relentlessly on whatever your goals may be! Failure is inevitable, but it’s a speed-bump, not a road block!⁣⁣
✨⁣⁣
Have compassion — you will meet people who need you. It can be consuming to reply to every message, give free consults or spend your days off creating skincare regimens for relatives/friends but I cannot tell you how rewarding it is in the long run. Try not to become too transactional. Don’t let others take advantage, but be compassionate when you can. It’s always worth it. ⁣⁣
✨⁣⁣
Be ethical — this is the line that divides the good from the great. Don’t do anything that doesn’t fall under your scope of practice and don’t let anyone you work for(including your clients!) ever pressure you into it either. It’s not and will never be worth it. Stay in your lane!⁣⁣
✨✨✨

MEET YOUR FACE’S NEW BFF 👯‍♀️
Link to shop: https://www.evolveskinandwellness.com/shop

The konjac is a gentle cleansing exfoliator made from the konjac root - a porous root vegetable that grows in Asia. Konjac sponges were invented by Japanese farmers and originally used to wash babies' skin because the sponge is so gentle, natural and anti-bacterial! 🤗

Instead of using silicon brushes, brushes with nylon bristles and harsh manual exfoliants,... the konjac is a perfect alternative for acne prone or compromised skin(retinol overdose, skin that’s been picked at, sunburned or inflamed skin).

I use my konjac sponge every single day, morning and evening to remove cleansers - even oil cleansers! - and masques. The texture is jelly like, gentle enough to remove eye-make up and the ones we sell in the our shop linked above come in a little pouch with an suction cup attachment that will stick to your shower tile!

Fun fact: the konjac will remove make-up with just water if you’re in a bind or run out of your fav oil cleanser. As always, you shouldn’t rely on it for everyday double cleansing and ALWAYS perform a second cleanse in the evening to get that “true” cleansing experience.

Have you switched over to the konjac? What questions do you have about nature’s magical sponge?! 🧽
