Skin Specialist Course

Teaching you the science of skin, professional techniques, & how to deliver safe, effective skincare treatments with confidence.

Why I Created This Course

Becoming a skin specialist completely transformed the way I was able to help clients. I created this course because I saw how many people wanted to step into the aesthetics and skincare world but felt overwhelmed, unsupported, and unsure where to start.

So many courses rush you through, teach the basics, and then leave you to figure out the rest alone. I wanted to build something different — something that prepares you for real clients, real results, and real confidence.

Inside, you’ll learn how to:

🖤Analyse and understand different skin types and conditions,

🖤Perform professional skincare treatments safely and effectively.

🖤Build tailored treatment plans for your clients.

🖤Understand client suitability and contraindications.

🖤Maintain the highest standards if hygiene and professionalism.

🖤Start building your client base.

What’s Included?

☑️ Easy to follow downloadable module sheets.

☑️ Lifetime access so you can learn at your own pace.

☑️ A CPD-Accredited Certificate.
