Skincare Tips For Cancer Patients From Dr. Ava Shamban | Askanesthetician's Blog
It's been a long time since I've posted anything about oncology esthetics. I was certified in oncology esthetics by Oncology Training International over 4 years ago.

Q&A With Mother Dirt President Jasmina Aganovic | Askanesthetician's Blog
I recently wrote a post about Mother Dirt skincare products. In addition to trying their products, I also had the opportunity to ask Mother Dirt president Jasmina Aganovic some questions about the company's current and future products, their skincare philosophy, and why spraying bacteria isn't actually gross at all. Question: In your opinion, why is…
Book Review: The Japanese Skincare Revolution | Askanesthetician's Blog
I had wanted to read this book for a long time since I am fairly obsessed with all things Japanese - the culture, the food, their skincare esthetic.* After it was part of my Amazon wishlist for years I finally took the plunge and purchased it. I wish I could say that I loved the…
Product Review: Charelle Facial Serums | Askanesthetician's Blog

I Tried It: Micellar Water | Askanesthetician's Blog
Micellar waters are not a new skincare product. They have been used in Europe, from what I can gather mainly in France, for quite some time. In the last two years or so they became a hit States side, and more and more companies (both large and small) have come out with their version of…
Spray Bacteria On Your Skin? Well, Yes! | Askanesthetician's Blog
Some time ago I wrote an article for About.com about the so-called caveman regime which simply means you stop washing your face. I'm definitely one of the last people to tell you to stop washing your face. My belief in how important face washing is was only strengthened by what I read happened to…
What Are Hydrosols? | Askanesthetician's Blog
I like to think of myself as up to date about skincare ingredients and products, but somehow hydrosols were off my radar until a few months ago. Now I am a devotee of this skincare product and am happy to recommend their use to other estheticians and clients. What Is A Hydrosol? Hydrosols are the…
Long Overdue: Product Recommendations | Askanesthetician's Blog
