Please Stop Product Shaming

Can we please stop the trend of product shaming potential clients on social media. It is giving professional estheticians a very bad look. If I am not a huge fan of the products my clients are using, I provide education, helpful resources, and a roadmap to get us to a meaningful end goal.

Remember what you put in your mouth is as important as the products you apply on your skin.
