My story

EDIT I'm Tasha, and I've been obsessed with skin since I was a teenager dealing with my own breakouts. I went to esthetics school, got licensed, and fell in love with the science of it — the why behind every product, not just the hype.

EDIT After years of seeing clients in person, I realized I could help way more people if I wasn't tied to one room in one city. So I took it virtual. Same knowledge, no commute for either of us.

License & training

EDIT Licensed esthetician, [state], license # [EDIT]. Trained in [EDIT: advanced skincare, ingredient science, skin of color, acne management]. Continuing education is ongoing — skin science moves fast and I move with it.

Why I went virtual

EDIT Because your skin doesn't care what city you're in, and neither do I. Virtual means I can see you in your own bathroom, with your own products, in your real lighting — which tells me way more than a fluorescent spa mirror ever could.

My skin philosophy, in my words

EDIT Skin is not a problem to be fixed. It's a thing to be understood. I'm here to translate the science into a routine that fits your life — not the other way around.

Philosophy

What I believe about skin

Simple beats complicated

A 3-step routine you actually do will out-perform a 10-step routine you abandon by week two. I build for real life.

Education over product pushing

I want you to understand your skin, not just buy stuff. The more you know, the less you get sold to.

Your budget is part of the plan

A $200 routine you can't afford is not a plan — it's stress. I fit products to what you can actually spend.

Consistency over hauls

Skin changes in cycles, not overnight. Slow, steady, and consistent wins every time. No miracle promises.

Fun facts

The quick stuff

Favorite product

EDIT A good niacinamide serum. Boring, effective, does the most for the least.

My own skin type

EDIT Combination, acne-prone, easily bored by routines.

Will never recommend

EDIT A 12-step routine to someone who asked for "simple." Respect the budget, respect the time.
