Not all acne is equal

Acne comes in many forms. Each one looks different, behaves differently and needs a different approach. A deeper understanding of acne, its causes and specific treatments is a life changer when it comes to getting results for your clients.

Learn directly from Nerida as she shows you how to identify and treat the types and origins of acne. You’ll watch her demonstrate three LIVE acne facial treatments, with a focus on preparing the skin for extractions and getting everything out without marking the skin. She’ll be joined by renowned speakers in the beauty and wellness arena, who’ll be sharing their expertise on gut health, essential products that can help heal the skin and how to maintain a successful business as a skincare professional.

You can also join Nerida’s exclusive VIP mentoring program on the third day to work hands-on with her in a small-group setting, and truly elevate your art and confidence as an esthetician.

This inspirational event will give you all the skills you need to excel in your business so you can focus on what success looks like to you!
