A blackberry enzyme is an enzyme extracted from blackberries or derived from blackberry fruit extract. Enzymes used in skincare are normally derived from fruits and other plant-based extracts;

And I LOVE getting to incorporate them in the treatment room!🫶🏻

Blackberry enzymes are often used in exfoliating treatments. They work by breaking down the bonds between dead skin cells, allowing for their removal from the skin’s surface. This process helps to reveal smoother, brighter, and more even-toned skin underneath.

Blackberry enzymes are known for their antioxidant properties, which can help protect the skin from environmental damage and promote a more youthful appearance. They also provide anti-inflammatory benefits, making them suitable for sensitive or acne-prone skin.

Let’s find out if an enzyme is right for you at your next treatment!

Refreshed lash lift + tint ✨

Lash lifts work with your natural lashes. Results are subtle but impactful 💥 enhancing natural beauty without looking overly dramatic or artificial.

Depending on your natural lash growth cycle, the results of a lash lift usually last 6 to 8 weeks. The tinting may fade a little bit over time, but can last 4 to 6 weeks.

Lash lifts are great for clients looking to enhance their natural lash beauty and save time on their beauty routines!🤍

What determines how long your eyebrow tint will last?

•Hair growth cycle: the natural growth cycle of your brow hair plays a significant role. Tinting typically lasts longer on eyebrows with slower hair growth.

•Color selection: the shade of tint used and how well it matches your natural brow color affects the longevity. Darker tints tend to last longer than lighter ones.

•Application technique: proper application ensures that brow tint pe*****tes the hair shaft effectively for longer lasting results.

•Skin type: oily skin may cause tint to fade faster compared to dry skin as natural oils can break down the tint quicker.

•Skincare routine: certain products like cleansers and exfoliants can accelerate the fading process of not carefully worked around the eyebrows. Keep water temps more lukewarm to cool when rinsing as well.

•Sun exposure: UV radiation can cause the tint to fade prematurely, so wearing sunscreen and/or avoiding prolonged sun exposure can help maintain the tint longer.

•Maintenance: avoiding activities that could cause friction or vigorous rubbing on the eyebrows, such as cleansing and excessive touching, can help preserve the eyebrow tint.

Lash lifting is a semi-permanent cosmetic treatment that enhances the curl and appearance of natural lashes. This process usually takes 45 minutes to an hour and results can last between 6-8 weeks.✨

It’s a popular alternative to eyelash extensions as it requires less maintenance and doesn’t involve attaching artificial lashes.✨

Hydrojelly heaven 🩶

Hydrojelly Masks are a type of facial mask that have gained popularity in the spa industry. These masks are formulated with a unique blend of beneficial ingredients, including natural botanicals, electrolytes, and seaweed extracts, designed to nourish and hydrate the skin. 💧

The term "Hydrojelly" comes from the jelly-like texture of the mask when mixed with water. The masks usually come in powder form and need to be mixed with water to create a gel-like consistency before application. This allows for better adherence to the skin and helps the ingredients pe*****te more effectively.

Hydrojelly Masks are known for their ability to provide hydration, soothe the skin, and improve its overall appearance. Depending on the specific formulation, these masks can target various skin concerns, such as dryness, dullness, redness, and irritation.

Elleebana lash lifting and tinting are beauty treatments designed to enhance the appearance of your eyelashes.

Lash lifting, also known as a lash perm, is a procedure where your natural lashes are curled and lifted using a special solution. This gives them a more open and lifted look, making your eyes appear larger and more awake. The treatment involves placing silicone pads on your eyelids and then applying the lifting solution to your lashes. The process typically takes around 45 minutes to an hour and can last for several weeks, depending on your natural lash growth cycle.

Lash tinting, on the other hand, involves applying a semi-permanent dye to your lashes to darken them. This can make your lashes look more defined and prominent, especially if you have lighter-colored lashes. The tinting process is relatively quick and usually takes around 15 to 20 minutes.

Both lash lifting and tinting can be done together for a more dramatic effect, enhancing the overall appearance of your eyes without the need for daily mascara or eyelash curling.

All shaped up and tinted! 💥
Ready to go brows for the next 4 weeks

Brow tinting is a cosmetic procedure where a semi-permanent dye is applied to the eyebrows to enhance their color and definition. It's often done to make the eyebrows appear fuller and more pronounced, especially for individuals with lighter-colored brows. The tinting process involves applying the dye to the brow hairs for a short period of time, usually a few minutes, and then wiping it off to achieve the desired shade. us

Do you see what I see 👀
Smoother lines, brighter tone, more contour, and a huge boost in hydration!

One of the hardest parts about my job is not being able to provide instant results.

When you go to get your hair done, you walk out with great hair. When you go to get your nails done, you walk out with the perfect nails. When you go to get your skin done, sometimes you can leave looking worse than before, but this will only make your skin better in the long run.

Skin care is trusting the process and knowing that good skin is coming. As estheticians, we pride ourselves in getting you to the skin of your dreams but it’s going to take time and consistency ✨

Here’s what a series of 3 H2Glow hydrodermabrasion treatments did for her inflamed acne with consistent at-home regimen dedication. 🩵

Introducing Cute Bands by Addi this summer at the shop!

My little girl is so invested in art and expressing herself through creating, kind of like her momma.🙃 She has taken the time to create several of these trendy bracelets and chokers in hopes of spreading her joy of making things and earning a little income on the side for herself this summer. Bracelets are $2 and chokers are $3✨

Happy Mother’s Day 💐
I love being able to treat mommas that need some time to unwind and refill their cups after everything they do.

I hope all the moms get their peace and relaxation today!!-because that’s all we really want when someone asks, right?!😂

Just a little cleanup to make them pop again ✨ Working on accomplishing a little fuller of a brow look for her and letting both the length of her hair and some of her new growth play apart in achieving this!

Leaving your eyebrows alone I’m between appointments and letting them grow is not what we’re used to, but it’s a process that definitely pays off to see if we can transform your eyebrows!

Her lashes leave a little sparkle wherever she goes ✨🤍✨

Loved being able to treat her to her first lash lift + tint and was excited to see what her end result would be after she had been using growth serum on them for so long!

They’re gorgeous 🥹

Celebrating ✨ t w o y e a r s ✨ in business today!

Ardent Skin Care has come a long way from where it started. There’s been a tremendous amount of unimaginable support received to make that possible.

I would love to thank all of my wonderful clients! I’m completely humbled by all of the trust and loyalty that I share with each one of you. My clients have always been the best at spreading the love and sending everyone they can my way for all of their skincare needs, and I’m mindfully grateful of how they’ve helped me grow everyday! None of this would be possible without you guys.🫶🏻

I’m so thankful for my landlord aka best suite mate ever, Tiffany at . From the beginning, she’s made me feel like I have a safe and comfortable place where I could lay down Ardent’s roots. She’s really helped me build my confidence as a business owner and has never questioned helping me with anything on this journey. She is amazing at her craft and holds herself to a high standard like I myself do, and because of that, we’re a dynamic duo helping beauty dreams come true!😘😘

I want to thank my husband! From the beginning of this adventure, he’s been there for all the advice I’ve needed, opinions I’ve sought out, and decor that has needed hung, put together or rearranged. He’s always told me I could do this and continually makes me feel as though I can make the strides I feel hesitant to make at times. He’s my best employee.🤍

My mom and dad are always there behind the scenes cheering me on. They are really great at giving me business advice and helping me with the analytic side of things. They saw how risky opening a business alone could be, but never once doubted that I couldn’t do it. I’m thankful that they believed in me so much that it steered me in the direction of becoming a small business owner.🫶🏻🫶🏻

I’m very excited to see what year three looks like for Ardent! I have some new things that I’ll be introducing to the service menu very soon that I am beyond eager to announce and share with everyone!! I’ll be letting everyone know what’s coming in the near future!
