Happy 95th birthday to Her Majesty. This is a repeat. I do get asked who I think has the best skin and I always say The Queen. Lovely complexion, not a lot of visual photo damage at all, great tonality plus extra points for always donning a hat! #advancedskincareexpert #skingoals ... Great skin can be achieved at any age See more

The sun is out! Now ( ok not JUST now but all year long) is the time to make sure you have your skin protected. I see so many skin issues that definitely could have been prevented! And yes the glare on my glasses is a film of sunscreen . Coola - organic sun protection Cruelty free NO parabens... Antioxidant rich Plant protection Cruelty free/ Vegan #oncologyesthetician #advancedskincareexpert See more

Opened up a new coffee and was greeted to this ! ( even the coffee is feeling Monday )! Hope everyone had a restful and safe Easter. Easter is one of my favourite holidays. Who doesn’t love bunnies, chicks and chocolate?

Exactly Oprah! Always wear your sunscreen #coola #oncologyesthetics Sunscreen is one of the most preventative steps you can do for your skin, health and anti-aging. ... I am constantly warning my clients on spots that they will inevitable have to have removed off... liquid nitrogen. I call this the bullet hole residual treatment This client here had cancer that I happen to spot and she had it removed. The surgeon told her any longer and she would’ve lost a substantial portion of her lower face area. See more

PINK SHIRT day! Take a stand against bullying. Let’s lift each other up

Check out February’s article I did for The Seaside Times. I’m seeing ALOT of this, any age any lifestyle. Could be characterized with pustules, acne, textural changes and even just ( what I call asphyxiated) dull skin. I, myself, struggle with this. #advancedskincare #specializedskin #maskne #compromisedskin

Every year I always start off with clear intent of Personal and Professional goals. I always keep it reasonable ( for me that is). This year I’m keeping it light, as I’ll be following up with last years goals due to the setback. Well here is one of them. Just finished this detailed face massage course and I can tell you it’s extremely relaxing! Acupressure points, lymphatic drainage and great skin. I lived in Osaka Japan in my early 20’s... that’s right just a couple of ye...ars ago And I really love the culture and the people. Stay tuned for an exciting NEW Facial! #relaxationfacial #skintherapist See more

What a lovely and very touching way to start this year! It was a complete surprise to me as well! I wasn’t aware there was a Christmas Sweepstakes here in Sidney, and a client surprisingly nominated me I actually thought it was a gag! Thank you all for your ongoing support, trust and kindness. Be Well and I love you all! Explore Sidney #gratitude

Last day in the studio today before our Christmas! What a year All jokes aside ( Barbie), many many thanks and gratitude to all of you. I said this June 1st upon reopening, in my December Seaside Times article and again now that working in my studio with all of you has been my highlight of this year! Thank you for the love, support and trust. #gratitude #happyheart #byebye2020 #learning

My favourite month #letswrapupthisyear #birthdaymonth #gratitude

If you get motion sickness.. don’t watch ( note to self: work on your video skills)! Yesterday I had the pleasure of working from all of my three rooms usually it’s 2/3. I love them all! Plus I’m really able to deep clean and sanitize. When I worked in Tofino at the Wickaninnish Inn, our rooms each had a name.. iE Fern, or Cedar Sanctuary. Maybe I should name mine? How does Madame Tussaud’s House of Pain sound?lol #paramedicatattoo #oncologyesthetician #licensedesthetician #beautysafe *disclaimer:everything out gets wiped down, sprayed with hospital grade sanitizer and I was only half set up in my tattoo room

TBT This is waaay before photoshop or retakes or filters So late 40’s Alana would tell preteen Alana... Use sunscreen Do not strip your oils ... Keep away from seabreeze, noxzema, and clearisil Do not pick your skin Keep out of the sun and YES - a tan is not healthy - do NOT dry your skin USE SUNSCREEN #oncologyesthetician #coolasunscreen PS I would still wear that blouse

In Decembers Seaside Times. Grab your copy. This article for me was really special and spoke to my "truth". #oncologyesthethician #skincare #proudcareerpath #gratitude #community

October is Breast Cancer Awareness month! 1 in 9 Canadian women get breast cancer! I’ve been busy lately and am giving you a sneak peek of some of it. Edited for Facebook My client is not only a Survivor, but what I think as a champion.... - aggressive chemotherapy - surgical removal (lumpectomy) - radiation I I could think of 100 adjectives to describe how I feel, but the one I am going to use is: HONOURED More to come - stay posted #paramedicaltatto #oncologyesthetician See more

It’s snowing in Sidney today!! Not quite but I have front row seats to this Christmas Hallmark movie Who wants to join me and bring popcorn

Oncology Esthetician at work providing a relaxing and skin restorative facial. This lovely client underwent a double mastectomy and opted to not have reconstruction. Her PIC line was removed a week ago after having it for a year. Although I’m trained to work with( around ) them, this does make it easier ... Of course I offered up my Scar Camouflage tattoo services. To be continued... I am so grateful to provide this service #oncologyesthetician #paramedicatattoo

Add to my year of firsts.... My First FLU shot!!!I grew up with the Healing with Whole Foods motto and always gravitated towards natural vs. Acquired immunity. Ginger and garlic are my Fall friends ( thankful for masks lol! JK) Not that I was resistant, against or even an antivaccer... it just never really featured, until now However here in 2020 my responsibility to my clients, my community and myself is something I take very seriously... #oncologyesthetician #safety #friendlychap See more

NO need for volume as it’s QUIET Tranquility video and family soul nourishment during 2020 Just HAD to go home for a visit. Lots of self isolation here as I grew up in a town of 250 people. This is it ... bike rides, visits with high school friends! Back in the studio next week Be safe and happy everyone

You can’t tell but this esthetician is SMILING I had the chance to work on a client for Scar Camouflage for her post Breast Reduction scarring. I love what I do and love my clients and being able to do something special and unique is so rewarding #paramedicaltattoo #camouflage

I love providing facials that not only include great skincare but a relaxing experience. Self care is a must and making yourself a priority is essential #facials #booknowfor2021 #healthyskin Living your best skin life

I love my latest ad for my NEW facial but especially get a kick out of the placement! No you won’t need sedation and NO microcurrent isn’t shockwave! #resultsdriven #eyetargetedarea #advancedfacials Seaside Magazine
