So what exactly happens at an international sugaring competition? A lot of my clients knew I went to SugarCon and knew I came home with the title, but I realized afterwards based on the questions my clients were asking, that most of you didn't actually know what the competition involved. 🤦🏾‍♀️🥹 Probably because I told NOBODY but my mum that I was competing. 😂 I wasn't even sure I was going to enter the competition until THREE DAYS before I travelled! 🤭 So basically sugarists from around the world were invited to submit a video demonstrating their technique. From there, five of us, representing Trinidad & Tobago, Korea, Canada and the US were selected to compete live in the semifinals. We were given volunteer models and had to perform our services while being judged on our technique, hair removal results, pre and post care, client comfort, professionalism, sanitation and overall execution. Then three of us advanced to the finals and did it all over again on the last day. And you already know what happened after that. 🥹🏆🇹🇹💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾 So THAT'S what I was actually doing at Sugar Con apart from the classes I was posting 😂 Still very grateful for the experience, and very glad that last-minute decision worked out the way it did. 🙏🏾☺️

Those little red bumps after sugaring doesn't necessarily mean that your service went wrong!👀 For some people, they're simply part of a normal, temporary inflammatory response to hair removal. When hair is pulled from the follicle, the follicle and surrounding tissue are mechanically stimulated. For some skin, this shows up as noticeable redness and slight swelling around each follicle, known as perifollicular erythema (redness) and edema (swelling) Histamine can also be part of this inflammatory response, particularly when itching, swelling or wheals are involved. Most clients do not experience this but others have a much more noticeable response and it may happen every single time! Even if you're prone to it, your skin won't necessarily respond with the same intensity every time. This client's first leg sugaring produced a very noticeable response. Her second appointment was significantly calmer. So what made the difference? One possible contributor is that there was considerably less hair to remove at her subsequent appointment. Fewer hairs being removed means fewer follicles being mechanically stimulated across the area, which may have contributed to the less extensive response. But individual skin reactivity and normal appointment-to-appointment variation matter too, so this reaction isn't something we as estheticians can predict or guarantee. So next time you see this, always know that a temporary response after sugaring can be completely normal so dont be scared if you see this. I make these posts because understanding what you're seeing makes it a lot less scary. 💙🤍💚☺️

I don't sugar every client the same way. Before I start sugaring, I'm already paying attention to the skin and hair in front of me. Hair density, growth patterns, skin condition, barrier health, sensitivity, reactivity, previous hair-removal methods and even hormonal changes can affect what the skin and hair look like on the day of an appointment. Also the assessment doesn't stop once I start sugaring! While I'm talking and laughing with you I'm watching how the skin responds. I'm paying attention to your comfort. I'm noticing whether an area is becoming reactive. All of the above determine whether I need to adjust my pressure, positioning, paste selection or approach. And once the hair is gone, I'm still assessing. Post-care shouldn't necessarily be identical for every client either. What I choose depends on what that particular skin needs after hair removal. For me, sugaring has never been about just removing hair but also about working WITH the skin. Good sugaring means knowing how to read what's in front of you and adjusting your approach accordingly. That's what skin-focused sugaring looks like. I am back out to work in full swing so if you're interested in getting your hair removed with someone who knows what are doing, book your appointments via the link in bio. See you!💚💙🤍

The Sugaring Convention has been an absolutely amazing experience. I got to meet such beautiful sugarists from all over the world and explore a completely different city! Interacting with industry leaders and trying different brands that I have only been able to see online had been so fun and fulfilling! All the brands I managed to try were so amazing and you all were so warm and kind to me! I took a leap of faith and decided to try my hand in a sugaring competition that at first I was very scared and reluctant to do but then ended up earning 1st Place in the International Sugaring Championship! Words alone cannot describe how grateful I am to have been able to attend this. Thanks to Jesus Christ for his favour🙏🏾 and for carrying me through this competition and making this trip possible! Thank you to @sarahsugarqueen for organizing such an amazing event @sugarcon_ You are such a beautiful person meeting you has been such a pleasant experience. Thank you to @radeqlab_official for supporting me on this journey and allowing me to compete with their sugar paste! Your team rooted for me so hard. I will never forget you all! Thank you to the competitors who have been so amazing and made the environment of the competition so light, fun and enjoyable. And your support for my win is truly appreciated. I loved meeting you all. Thank you to everyone else who was rooting for me from the very beginning, thank you for all your congratulations I tried my best to personally reply to every comment! Love you guys forever and I can't wait to see you all again🤗💙💚🤍

One of the biggest misconceptions about getting a Brazilian/ Manzilian is that your sugarist is judging your body, reactions or hair. We're not. While you're wondering if you have too much hair or whether we're noticing every little detail, our minds are somewhere completely different. We're looking at things like: ✔️ Your skin health. ✔️ Your hair growth pattern. ✔️ Signs of ingrown hairs. ✔️ Whether your home care is working. ✔️ How to ensure you have the best experience despite the fact that you may or may not feel pain Your body isn't being judged, it's being assessed so I can give you the best results possible. If you feel pain there is no need to apologize. No you're not my worst client! For the men, I see you feel ashamed when it hurts, but its okay. 🤗 If you've ever felt embarrassed before a Brazilian/ Manzilian. I hope this gives you a little more confidence. 🤍 I know it can feel vulnerable and scary lying on that treatment bed especially if it's your first time. But I hope you know this will always be a judgment-free and educational space!😉 💙You're safe here.

When was the last time you truly slowed down?🥺 Not because you had to...but because you gave yourself permission to. Life has a way of leaving its mark. The stress, the constant rushing, the endless responsibilities, they don't just weigh on your mind. They can show up on our skin too, leaving it looking tired, dull, and in need of a little extra care. That's why I created the SNB Holistic Facial!🤩 More than a skincare treatment, it's an opportunity to pause. To breathe deeply. To disconnect from the outside world for just a little while as your mind unwinds and your skin receives the care it deserves. One of the things I hear most from clients is, "That was SO GOOD! I could go home and sleep now!" And that's exactly how I want every person to leave my treatment room. Not just with healthy, radiant skin, but feeling lighter. More rested. More present. More connected to themselves. Beautiful skin is about more than what you put on it. It's also about creating moments that allow you to rest, reset, and care for yourself from the inside out. If you've been pouring into everyone else lately, maybe it's time to pour back into yourself. Your skin deserves care. Your mind deserves peace. Your body deserves a moment to simply BE🧘🏾‍♀️. Book your SNB Holistic Facial and experience why it's become a client favourite!🥰💙🤍💚

Ingrown hairs are usually a sign that something is disrupting the environment your hair is trying to grow through. 💡 Yes, hair type matters, but so does the health of your skin! A damaged skin barrier, dead skin buildup, friction, shaving habits, improper hair removal, and even hormonal conditions like PMOS (formerly PCOS) can all increase your risk of developing painful ingrown hairs. That's why simply pulling out an ingrown or exfoliating harder rarely solves the problem. The goal isn't just to remove the hair but also to create a healthy environment so your hair can grow out normally. Swipe through to learn the real reasons ingrown hairs develop and what you can do to help prevent them. If ingrown hairs, dark marks, or recurring irritation have become your normal, they don't have to stay that way. At Star Naturale Beauty, we take a skin-first approach with barrier-focused sugaring, corrective vajacials, and intimate skin treatments designed to support healthier hair growth and healthier skin.🤗 💚 Save this post for later or share it with someone who struggles with ingrown hairs.

This is only after three double peel treatments using the @mr_lulu_skincare system! You can clearly see that her pigmentation is lightening up nicely. It is still a work in progress as I am still currently working on her skin but we are both pleased with the progress so far! This was achieved using a combination of no-downtime peels to target discoloration and ingrown hairs. Mr Lulu is a line that not only caters for the face but can be expertly used to brighten intimate areas! Thats why I love it so much! It is corrective, and balances both strength (high actives) and the ability to still be gentle. It is a system that absolutely does work! 🟢If you are an Aesthetician and would like to learn more about this brand send me a DM 🟢To my lovely clients, if you are interested in intimate skin services such as corrective vajacials and intimate brightening, look no further.

If your ingrown hairs always seem to show up along your panty line, your underwear could be part of the problem❗️ Tight-fitting underwear can increase friction against the skin and follicles. Synthetic fabrics can also trap heat and moisture, creating an environment that may contribute to irritation, bumps, and ingrown hairs. Correcting ingrown hairs is not always just about products. While products definitely to improve the function of the follicles sometimes you also have to look at the daily habits that may be keeping inflammation going. A few simple changes can make a difference: ✔️ Choose breathable fabrics like cotton whenever possible ✔️ Change out of sweaty underwear promptly after workouts ✔️ Avoid underwear that is excessively tight ✔️ Support the skin with proper hydration, exfoliation, and barrier care The goal isn't just removing hair but about creating a healthier environment for the skin and follicles to function properly. Have you ever noticed a connection between your underwear and where your ingrowns appear? Now you know why thats happening! For intimate skin care services such as sugaring, vajacials and intimate brightening, you can schedule your appointments via the link in bio or DM if you have any specific questions you may want to ask me if you are new and nervous about your first appointment 💙🤍💚☺️

Hair reduction with sugaring doesn’t happen overnight, but for many clients, it does happen over time! This client experienced visibly finer, less dense regrowth compared to where she started. Everyone’s hair journey is different, but consistent sugaring can help encourage softer, sparser regrowth while keeping the skin smoother and healthier. To start your sugaring journey you can book your appointments via the link in bio. The prices are all there for you to see as well☺️💙🤍💚

Corrective skincare doesn’t always have to be harsh. Something I really enjoy is being able to work on correcting the skin without always needing to take an overly aggressive approach which is honestly perfect for melanated skin! This client was dealing with congestion and acne lesions, so I decided to use the Salicylic Resurfacing Oil Peel from @mr_lulu_skincare to help soften buildup within the pores, decongest the skin, and prepare the skin for extractions and other corrective ingredients and approaches afterwards. One thing I love about this approach is that the skin can still be worked on in a corrective way without leaving it looking overly stripped or inflamed afterwards. You can actually see how much easier the congestion releases once the skin is properly prepared. I finished the treatment with the Retinal Azelaic Serum to continue supporting congestion, texture, and post-inflammatory pigmentation. 🟢Clients if you want to correct your skin without the downtime, I have options available. Schedule your skin consultation via the link in bio. 🟢 Aestheticians if you want to learn more about Mr Lulu Skincare DM me for more information on this product line and how you can get started!

Most people wait until they’re dealing with severe ingrowns, irritation, texture, or dark marks before they start taking intimate skincare seriously. But vajacials shouldn’t only be something you do when your skin is already struggling. A properly done vajacial is a corrective and preventative treatment designed to support the skin barrier in between hair removal services while helping to: ✔️ reduce ingrown hairs ✔️ calm inflammation ✔️ maintain smoother texture ✔️ support healthier skin turnover ✔️ minimize post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) ✔️ help minimize inflammation and friction-related irritation that can contribute to hyperpigmentation over time. Just like facials help maintain the health of your face, vajacials help maintain the health of your intimate skin. The goal is healthier, calmer, stronger skin! Healthy intimate skin is built through consistency, barrier support, proper hair removal, and corrective care If you need helpnwith any of the above book your vajacial treatments via the link in bio!💙🤍💚

These results were achieved in just 4 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart.☺️ And no, she did not peel like a snake. One of the biggest misconceptions about treating hyperpigmentation is that the skin has to undergo aggressive shedding in order to improve. But when treating melanated skin, overly aggressive approaches can sometimes create even more inflammation and compromise the barrier. Using the @mr_lulu_skincare double peel system, the focus was controlled correction, improving texture, supporting skin health, and progressively targeting pigmentation and acne breakouts while respecting the barrier of the skin, minimizing inflammation and without downtime. You can already see improvements in: ✔️ more even skin tone ✔️ smoother texture ✔️ reduced congestion ✔️ reduced hyperpigmentation ✔️ healthier-looking, stable skin Good skin takes consistency, strategy, and patience, not just aggression. 🟢 Clients if you need help with your skin and do not wish to undergo excessive shedding and downtime, schedule your skin consultation via the link in bio! 🟢 Aestheticians if you’re interested in learning how to incorporate Mr. Lulu into your treatment room and elevate your corrective skincare services for melanated skin, DM me on how to get started 💙🤍💚

Your skin doesn’t always need something aggressive to glow. 😉 Sometimes all it needs is the right touch, the right care, and a moment to reset. This is the result after my Glow & Go Facial, a 30-minute treatment designed to refresh dull, congested skin and bring back that healthy, clean glow. Notice how much smoother, brighter, and fresher the skin looks immediately after. 👀 This facial is perfect for: ✔️ dull skin ✔️ clogged pores ✔️ maintenance facials ✔️ pre-event glow ✔️ busy people who still want healthy skin You will get soft, clean, radiant skin, every time!😍 Book yours via the link in bio!💙🤍💚

For a while my client experienced repeated irritation and heat trauma from waxing, which eventually led to hyperpigmentation under the arms. After switching to sugaringwith me, her skin was finally able to calm down and recover over time.☺️ One of the reasons I love sugaring for sensitive and melanated skin is because it can be a much gentler approach to hair removal when performed correctly. Less heat, less trauma, and more support for the skin barrier can make a huge difference in clients who struggle with inflammation and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. This is why I always say that hair removal and skin health go hand in hand. Healthy skin starts with reducing chronic irritation.

Hair removal is only one part of the treatment. For clients prone to ingrown hairs, I love to take it a step further and turn my sugaring hair removal service into an actual targeted treatment! Here I’m using the Mr. Lulu Clear Powder Mask @mr_lulu_skincare , formulated with ingredients like sulfur, clays, and centella asiatica to help clarify congested follicles, calm inflammatory activity, and support clearer skin post-sugaring. I also mix in a few drops of the Soothing Face Oil to help calm and comfort the skin after exfoliative hair removal. This is ideal for • Ingrown-prone skin • Reactive bikini areas • Follicular congestion 🟢Clients: You have the option of getting this sugaring upgrade so be sure to add this ingrown hair treatment to your sugaring. 🟢Estheticians: this combination works beautifully post hair removal for inflamed, congested, ingrown-prone skin. If you want more information on how you can add Mr Lulu Skincare to your treatments DM me I'd be happy to assist you on where to start!

A lot of people think facials are only for pampering, acne, dark spots, or “problem skin.” However, this isn't the full picture. Healthy skin needs attention too! Her skin was already in great condition. It's even-toned overall, balanced and generally healthy! But even the healthiest skin can occasionally become dull, suffer from mild congestion and early textural irregularities from dead skin buildup, and even experience subtle dehydration. If generally healthy skin is left unchecked the above factors can lead to lacklustre looking skin, possibly acne and that acne can lead to post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. This is why facials aren’t just about being corrective… they’re preventative! You don’t wait until your skin is bad to take care of it. You want to maintain your healthy skin so it stays beautiful.🥰 If your skin is “fine” but you want it smoother, clearer, and glowing book your maintenance facial. The holistic Facials I have designed are absolutely wonderful for maintaining vibrant looking skin while giving you an entire experience that you will love!💙🤍💚

If this isn't checked first, your results can suffer! Before I touch your skin, I’m already assessing: • Signs of inflammation-- irritated skin will only get worse if handled incorrectly • Your skin barrier-- if it’s compromised, correction has to wait and repair becomes more important • Your sensitivity levels-- this determines the treatment approach. The truth is, all skin cannot be treated the same way. This is why some people see amazing results…and others keep struggling. I read your skin first, then I decide what it actually needs. If you’ve been dealing with stubborn intimate skin concerns, it might be time for a more customized approach. Book your intimate skin consultation via the link in bio!💙🤍💚

Every treatment I do is based on what your skin needs in that moment.😊 In her case, I used the HAB3 serum as a mask and mixed it with the Face Brightening Oil to: ✔️ smooth and plump the skin ✔️ support hydration and moisture ✔️ and improve overall texture ✔️ give her a brighter, radiant complexion Then I paired it with Red LED to help stimulate collagen production and reduce any inflammation in the skin. While the mask sit on her skin, I pampered her a bit (because that's what I lovee doing). I love making all of my services into an experience! 🥰 In the end, we were both very happy with what we were able to achieve, she left with glowing skin that lasted and with a spirit that felt refreshed and renewed🥹. My Holistic facials are not just about pampering, it is healing, gently corrective and repairing, it is an experience! Gift cards are available for Mother's Day and they will receive a complimentary skin consultation when they book any of my holistic Facials! I look forward to seeing all you beautiful faces! 💙🤍💚

After hair removal, your skin doesn’t “just react". It's going through a normal biological process. Here’s what’s happening🤓: • Micro-trauma -- low-grade inflammation can happen. The degree of inflammation your experience depends on technique and hair removal method! • Histamine response -- your immune system activates (redness, bumps, itching). This is simply how SOME people react and it is quite normal! Don't be scared it will pass within a few hours in most cases🤗 • Barrier disruption -- Hair removal methods like shaving, waxing, and sugaring are also forms of exfoliation. If your skin’s barrier is already compromised, it may become temporarily more sensitive and vulnerable to irritation, ingrown hairs, breakouts and pigmentation overtime if not addressed. The good news is, while some things just naturally come with hair removal, it can in fact be managed!😊 When the skin is properly supported before, during and after hair removal: ✔️ Inflammation is calmed ✔️ The barrier is restored efficiently ✔️ The skin recovers smoothly and quickly Over time, your skin becomes stronger, clearer, and more resilient. This is why I approach hair removal from a skin-first, holistic perspective. It’s not just about removing hair, but about guiding your skin through the process properly so that these effects can be minimized. Technique and supportive measures matters a lot! And that is what I am excellent at! Healthy skin after hair removal is possible with the right approach. You can book your sugaring appointments via the link in bio. Happy Sugaring! I can't wait to see you.💙🤍💚

If your skin keeps getting darker after hair removal… this is for you!🫵🏾 A lot of people think it’s just their skin or something they can’t control, but most of the time, it comes down to what’s happening after the hair removal.💡 The irritation, the friction, the lack of proper care… all of that adds up and triggers pigmentation over time.😖 The truth is, your skin is extremely vulnerable after hair removal, especially in areas like the underarms and intimate region. If it’s not treated properly in that moment, it will respond with inflammation, and eventually, darkening. This is why I always take a skin-first approach to sugaring, focusing on how to protect, calm, and support the skin every step of the way.😊 If you’ve been dealing with dark spots, ingrown hairs, or irritation, it might be time to change how you’re caring for your skin. 💬 Message me or book your appointment via the link in bio to start treating your skin the right way💙🤍💚

You don’t have to skip the beard anymore when treating your skin. 😉 For the longest time, the beard has been avoided in facials with the exception of cleansing and oils. Even men themselves neglect the skin underneath their beards.😢 And that’s exactly one of the reasons why so many men deal with: ❌ breakouts under the beard ❌ ingrown hairs ❌ rough, congested skin Because the skin is there is just not being sufficiently treated. In this treatment, I’m using the Activated Enzyme Scrub from @mr_lulu_skincare which I LOVE! 😍It instantly brightens and smoothens the skin. It performs triple exfoliation safely on the skin and within the bearded area: ✔️ Enzymatic-- breaks down dead skin buildup ✔️ Chemical -- helps clear congestion + support brighter, healthier skin ✔️ Gentle physical-- refines texture without being too abrasive Due to the fact that it isn’t overly granular, I’m able to work through the beard as its super easy to remove because it feels more like a foaming cleanser! Paired with steam, it softens the skin and loosens debris, allowing for easy extractions! This is what intentional skincare looks like. So whether you’re a client dealing with congestion, acne, ingrowns and hyperpigmentationon the face and bearded area, or a professional treating bearded skin, it’s time to stop skipping the area and start treating it properly. 💯 🟢 Clients if you're interested in a facial that treats not just your skin but caters to the skin beneath the beard, book the Beard and Skin Reset Therapy Facial. You will absolutely love it. Share to your male friends and partners. Book via the link in bio.

Everyone is talking about exfoliation and brightening when it comes to hyperpigmentation... But what if I told you that’s only part of the story? 👀 Here’s the truth most people are missing: If you don’t stop triggering your melanocytes, you will keep chasing results instead of maintaining them.🫠 Hyperpigmentation is not just about excessive pigment. It is about inflammation, barrier damage and chronic irritation.💯 This is why I focus so heavily on: ✔️calming inflammation ✔️ repairing the skin barrier ✔️ reducing unnecessary triggers THEN using actives like exfoliants and tyrosinase inhibitors strategically. Because let's face it, these things are still important...but it's HOW you use it! When the skin feels constantly under attack, it will protect itself the only way it knows how-- by producing more pigment. And that’s the cycle most people are stuck in. At Star Naturale Beauty, I don’t just treat your pigmentation, I look at the root causes of why it's happening in the first place. 💙 If you’re dealing with hyperpigmentation (on your face, in intimate areas or underarms), this approach changes everything.😉 🟢Book your consultation or treatment today 📩 DM for guidance if you need it🤗

Sugaring hair removal is skincare for me. I’ve never separated the two. ☺️ I’m very intentional about how I treat the skin after hair removal, especially in underarms and intimate areas where the skin is delicate and more prone to barrier impairment, ingrowns, and hyperpigmentation. Here I’m using the Bright Powder Mask from @mr_lulu_skincare. It contains 20% niacinamide and other calming ingredients, so while it supports brightening, it also helps calm inflammation at the same time. It is one of my favourite mask post-sugaring. 🥰 I’m able to address discolouration without compromising the skin barrier (no acids, no unnecessary irritation). I also blend it with a few drops of oil to maintain hydration and reduce TEWL. This is what skin-focused sugaring looks like. 🟢 To my clients: At Star Naturale Beauty, your sugaring service doesn’t stop at hair removal. I treat: ✔️ inflammation ✔️ ingrown hairs ✔️ barrier damage ✔️ hyperpigmentation If you want a more targeted treatment, you can upgrade your sugaring service at booking. 🟢 To my estheticians: If you’re removing hair and not supporting the skin after… you’re setting your clients up for prolonged inflammation, TEWL, and eventually hyperpigmentation. Oil alone after hair removal is not enough. You wouldn’t treat an exfoliated face that way so it shouldn't be done here either. DM me if you’re ready to elevate your hair removal services. 😉

Her skin looked dry, flaky, and even felt a little leathery. This is a client that I have sugared many times before and this is what I initially noticed on the surface. But when I took a deep look at her skin, I realized that wasn’t the full story.😦 Underneath that dehydrated surface was a lot of compacted oil and congestion. She would have told me that in the past her skin was very oily, but now instead of that oil spreading out on her skin, it was being trapped! This happens more often than you think. With oily skin, when it becomes dehydrated due to using harsh and stripping products, the barrier gets compromised, dead skin starts to build up and trap oil underneath leading to acne lesions and rough texture. This occurs because in order for your skin cells to shed naturally, it needs water!💦 She also had very reactive skin which got easily irritated and was prone to burning, even with gentle products, so I had to be extremely intentional with every step.💞 Luckily, this is exactly what I do!😉 I focused on barrier repair first, using products formulated for sensitive skin. We did a short gentle steam where I placed a light layer of oil over her skin first to reduce further trans-epidermal water loss from the steam followed by gentle extractions. We then did a light enzyme exfoliation to loosen any excessive buildup. I then used cold globes to calm inflammation. We followed that with a brightening, nourishing mask (no harsh acids) to restore balance, and finished with hydration, SPF, and a light layer of oil to seal everything in. Even though she does have some hyperpigmentation, that’s not where we start when working on barrier impaired skin, you have to heal and restore first. The result? Radiant, calm, healthy skin that feels soft, smooth, and supple to the touch. In the end, she told me her skin felt so much smoother and you could see the glow instantly!😍 🟢If your skin feels dry but still looks bumpy, congested, or reactive, you have a classic case of a compromised barrier. Book your facial and let’s treat your skin the right way. A great place to start is with the Holistic Facials, where you get a complimentary skin consultation.🤗

If your intimate skin is getting darker, irritated, or constant ingrowns, it is probably because you are👇🏾 • Over-exfoliating your skin and weakening your barrier • Not keeping your skin properly hydrated. • Picking at ingrown hairs in a way that causes more damage. All of these lead to one thing... inflammation! Inflammation is one of the biggest triggers for pigmentation and ongoing skin issues. My approach is about correcting the skin, supporting the barrier, and treating concerns the right way. I do this through: ✔️ skin-focused sugaring ✔️ targeted vajacials and ✔️ corrective brightening services The goal I have for you is always healthier, clearer, more even-toned skin. If you’re ready to get your skin in its best condition, I have a plethora of intimate services I offer. Visit the link in bio and book the one that best suits your desired outcome.

This is what happens when you treat the skin barrier first… not just the acne.😊 This client came in for a holistic facial that I designed to be focused on barrier repair, hydration, and overall skin health, but she was also experiencing breakouts and uneven tone. Instead of going aggressive, I chose a gentle correction approach: • A salicylic resurfacing oil peel to decongest without stripping • HAB3 serum as a mask treatment (niacinamide + hyaluronic acid) under LED to deeply hydrate, calm inflammation, strengthen the barrier and brighten the skin Both products from Mr Lulu Skincare! The result? ✔️ Brighter, more even complexion ✔️ Softer appearance of fine lines that was evident on her forehead and smile lines ✔️ Skin that looks healthy, nourished, and alive, not overworked Because real results don’t come from attacking the skin. They come from supporting it properly. 🟢 For my beautiful clients: If your skin is breaking out, dull, or just not responding to what you’re doing, book your facial via the link in bio and let’s treat your skin the right way.🥰 🟢 For estheticians: If you’re looking for a line that allows you to correct acne and pigmentation while still protecting the skin barrier, Mr Lulu skincare brand is one of my go-to systems. DM me “LULU” and I’ll guide you on how to get started. Healthy skin over aggressive treatments. Always.😘

If you’re constantly dealing with ingrown hairs… your hair removal method might be the problem. Sugaring isn’t just about removing hair, it’s about protecting your skin while doing it. Unlike traditional methods, sugaring removes hair in the direction of growth, which helps reduce breakage under the skin (one of the main causes of ingrowns). It also gently exfoliates dead skin cells clearing the follicles allowing you to start off on a good foundation. Less trauma. Less inflammation. Fewer ingrowns. If your skin is tired of bumps, marks, and irritation… it’s time to switch to a method that actually supports your skin. Homecare is still super important, it's whats going to keep your skin in top shape. Don't say I didn't tell you😘 Book your appointment via the link in bio and let’s get your skin in better shape.💙🤍💚

Men with beards need more than a basic facial… and estheticians, this is for you too.☺️ Congestion, ingrowns, dullness, and dryness under the beard require a targeted approach, using the right products and technique to treat the skin on the face, underneath the beard and the hair itself! This is just a preview of a beard-focused facial using Mr. Lulu @mr_lulu_skincare I’ll be breaking down each step, product, and why it works for your male clients! Follow along for the full breakdown😃 Men I have something really special loading just for you!💙💚🤍😉

If your acne isn’t responding... it is probably being mismanaged. You don’t clear acne by stacking more products and actives. You clear acne by understanding what the skin is dealing with. 🧠 Most non-responsive acne comes down to: • Chronic inflammation that’s never being calmed • Internal factors such as hormones and gut health issues • A weakened barrier from over-exfoliation • Treating every breakout the same way (when they’re not the same) • Ignoring triggers like diet, lifestyle habits and comedogenic products At that point, your skin isn’t “resistant”…it’s overwhelmed. Real acne correction looks like: • figuring out what the root causes are • reducing inflammation • supporting the barrier • using actives strategically (not aggressively) • being consistent long enough to see change • sometimes outside referrals to address internal factors Because clear skin isn’t about doing more. It is about understanding what is really happening and doing what actually works to address it. If you have been struggling with acne even though you have "tried everything" schedule your skin consultation via the link in bio 💙🤍💚

Why no-downtime peels make more sense in tropical climates 🌴☀️ Living in the Caribbean means your skin is constantly exposed to heat, humidity, and incidental sun. Even when you’re not at the beach, your skin is already in a slightly inflamed and reactive state.🫠 So the question becomes… Why would we choose treatments that create more inflammation?🤔 Traditional peels work by creating a controlled injury in the skin, stumulating high inflammation which then leads to a lot of shedding. But in a hot, humid environment where UV exposure is unavoidable, this can easily lead to: • Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation • Uneven healing • Rebound darkening And this is exactly what we want to avoid in melanin-rich skin.🫣 This is why I chose to use no-downtime peels like the @mr_lulu_skincare Double Peel! It was created to work all year in any climate! Instead of forcing the skin to peel aggressively, it: • Supports gentle, controlled cell turnover • Keeps the barrier more intact • Reduces inflammation instead of amplifying it • Allows for consistent treatments without setbacks So in this case I’m able to target pigment (and acne), calm inflammation, and renew the skin, without pushing it into a state of trauma. Because in tropical climates or hotter weather we have to think differently. It's not about how aggressively you treat the skin but about being intelligent with how you work with it. The goal isn’t to force peeling but to achieve healthy, even, stable skin over time. 🟢CLIENTS: if you need help with your hyperpigmentation visit the link in bio and schedule a skin consultation with me. 🟢ESTHETICIANS: if you are interested in how the Double Peel can work for you DM me as one of the Mentors. I can guide you on how to get started, what products to choose and any other questions you may have!

Your underarm hair removal should improve your skin- not damage it! Look closely at the difference.👀 After sugaring (exfoliation) + targeted skin support, her underarm skin immediately looked brighter, smoother, and softer with a less ashy tone. And not only that but her skin looks calm! What made the difference? Not just the hair removal.😉 Sugaring provides gentle exfoliation which helps to naturally brighten the skin, but in this case I combined the treatment with @mr_lulu_skincare Bright Powder Mask, mixed with the Brightening Face Oil. This allowed me to be more intentional about her skin by allowing me to calm inflammation while also supporting pigmentation concerns. At Star Naturale Beauty, you may know that for years with me, your sugaring service is treated as a SKIN CARE treatment-- not just hair removal. Sugaring Hair removal (like waxing) is an exfoliation service, not just a grooming service! When the skin is not properly supported afterward it can lead to: • barrier damage • chronic inflammation • stubborn hyperpigmentation • ingrown hairs ❗️This is why simply applying oil after hair removal is not enough. The skin needs calming and barrier supportive products ESPECIALLY, and safe corrective ingredients (if you want to take it a step further) to maintain balance and proper skin health. 🔹️Your skin deserves more than basic hair removal. It deserves corrective, barrier-supportive care. If you want to sugar with an esthetician who understands both hair removal AND skin health, book your appointment through the link in bio on @starnaturalebeauty and I excourage you to explore the sugaring upgrades available.💙🤍💚 For estheticians interested in opening a professional Mr. Lulu account, the link is also in the bio. Questions are always welcome by both estheticians and clients. I always respond.🥰

Healthy intimate skin should feel soft, balanced, and comfortable, not irritated, dry, or constantly breaking out with ingrowns! If you notice things like: • ashy or dull darkening • persistent ingrown hairs • dry or flaky skin • chafing or irritation • rash-like bumps (that are not infections) • tight, shiny skin with fine lines... these can be signs that the intimate skin barrier is stressed❗️ This often happens from friction, sweating, pads or liners, tight clothing, and improper hair removal. When the barrier becomes compromised, the skin becomes more prone to irritation, ingrowns, and uneven skin tone. 😁The good news is that with the right care, including barrier-supportive treatments like vajacials, proper hair removal techniques, the right products and lifestyle adjustments the skin can become healthier, calmer, and more resilient. At Star Naturale Beauty, my approach focuses on supporting the skin barrier first so the skin can function the way it should. Healthy barrier. Healthier skin. Happy YOU! 🤩 For services with an esthetician that understands intimate skin, book your sugaring appointments and intimate skin services and upgrades via the link in bio. Your "girl down there" will thank you.💙🤍💚

Acne and ingrown hairs have this in common -- they’re follicular disorders driven by dead skin buildup and inflammation. Effective correction must address both, without compromising the skin barrier. This is why the Clear Powder Mask from @mr_lulu_skincare is part of my corrective protocols.🤩 It supports follicular decongestion while remaining gentle enough for both facial and body skin.😏 Why it translates across areas: ✔️ French Pink + Kaolin Clay Absorb excess oil and refine pores without stripping essential lipids. ✔️ Sulfur (15%) Supports exfoliation within the follicle, reduces breakout formation, and calms inflammatory activity -- making it effective for both acne and ingrown-prone skin. ✔️ Centella Asiatica Soothes reactive skin and supports recovery after extractions, exfoliation, and hair removal. 🟢 How I use it: ▫️Acne-prone facial skin post-extractions ▫️Post advanced exfoliation ▫️Underarms and external vulva post sugaring/ hair removal ▫️Corrective intimate skin protocols For professionals: This is a versatile option for managing follicular congestion and inflammation across both facial and body treatments. For clients: this means you get clearer, calmer skin beyond just the face. Tap the link in bio to book your facial consultation and intimate corrective services for blemish free skin on the face and body☺️

The skin on the vulva does NOT behave like facial skin. This is because it exists in a completely different environment.😏 There is: ✔️Higher nerve sensitivity. ✔️Increased vascularity. ✔️Constant friction. ✔️Occlusion from clothing. ✔️Lower oil production but abundant sweat glands. All of this means one thing: It reacts faster. It pigments faster. And it can become inflamed much easier. This is why using random brightening creams, and harsh products in intimate areas often disrupts the barrier and by extension make discoloration and even ingrown hairs worse. If you’re struggling with: • Recurrent ingrowns • Uneven intimate skin tone • Skin that is very dry You do not need stronger products. You need a structured protocol from someone who understands intimate skin! 🔵 Services are available for advanced intimate correction. 💫💫Courses in Intimate Brightening and Vajacials soon come Esties!💙🤍💚

Vajacials aren’t a luxury. They’re corrective treatments. Every step is intentional.😉 ✔️Steaming softens the skin and prepares it for safe ingrown extraction. ✔️Exfoliation removes buildup that traps hair beneath the surface. ✔️High frequency helps calm inflammation and support healing. ✔️Targeted masks and aftercare restore barrier function and address pigment and ingrown hair concerns. 🔵 Vajacials are ideal for: • Chronic ingrown hairs • Barrier-impaired, dry, dehydrated skin • Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation • Texture irregularities ❗️Intimate skin is reactive. It experiences friction, inflammation, hormonal shifts, and frequent hair removal trauma. It deserves structured care, just like facial skin! If you shave, wax, or sugar, adding corrective vajacials improves your overall results and supports healthier skin long term. There is no reason to feel self-conscious about your intimate area because you have options🤗 Book your corrective vajacial via the link in bio. Advanced ingrown hair correction (for those with severe ingrowns) and Intimate brightening services are also available💙🤍💚

Intimate skin care is not new to me 😉 As an esthetician and sugarist for nearly 8 years, I first offered vajacial treatments as a natural extension of my hair removal services. This is because I recognized very early that I wasn’t just removing hair, I was consistently working with real skin concerns that required deeper understanding and a more advanced approach. I’ve worked with: • chronic ingrown hairs • pigmentation • textural irregularities • chafing • hormonal skin changes • inflammatory conditions like hidradenitis suppurativa These were concerns clients came to me to address. That’s how my focus evolved. Most intimate care education is centered on protocols, not understanding. So I investigated beyond standard training to understand the why behind what I was seeing, allowing me to guide clients safely and effectively toward better outcomes. I began connecting my experience in sugaring with my extensive background in skincare, corneotherapy principles, holistic aesthetics, and clinical aesthetics. This is when I established something important: Hair removal cannot be approached as grooming alone. It must be approached as skin therapy. Through years of refinement, I developed techniques to: • minimize inflammation • reduce the risk of hyperpigmentation • actively support the skin barrier • improve overall treatment outcomes I also integrate nervous system regulation techniques from my holistic training, because how the body experiences a treatment directly affects skin recovery.💆🏽‍♀️🧘🏾‍♀️ Intimate skin health has always been a clinical focus in my work, and even more-so now, with the extension into intimate brightening services! By merging clinical skin knowledge, holistic methods, and real-world hair removal experience, I created an approach where hair removal and intimate treatments are corrective, restorative, and supportive. Because intimate skin deserves the same intelligence, respect, and care as the face.🥰 Tap the link in bio to book your sugaring and intimate skin services!

Intimate hyperpigmentation is rarely a hygiene issue. It’s usually a skin stress issue.‼️ The underarms, inner thighs,and intimate areas are more reactive than people realize. The skin here delicate, hormone-influenced, and constantly exposed to friction, heat, and inflammation. Over time, the skin does what it’s designed to do when stressed....it protects itself. This protection means more melanin production.🫠 That’s why darkening in this area is often linked to: • Friction from thighs rubbing & movement • Sweat and chafing creating barrier irritation • Shaving trauma and micro-cuts • Aggressive or frequent hair removal • Heat from waxing • Ingrown hairs causing repeated inflammation • Tight clothing trapping heat and moisture • Hormonal influence on melanocytes This isn’t just a “color” concern. It’s often a sign of chronic low-grade inflammation and barrier stress. For clients: this is not about being “unclean.” Your skin is responding to irritation. ❗️FOR ESTHETICIANS: Hair removal is a form of controlled inflammation. Without proper skin support, repeated follicular and thermal stress can lead to post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH). Watch the live I did with @mr_lulu_skincare and I'll show you how you can address this immediately after hair removal in your treatment room! When we focus on calming inflammation, supporting the barrier, and treating the skin intentionally, pigmentation can improve safely over time. 📍 To my beautiful clients Services are available: • Vajacials • Intimate brightening • Ingrown correction • Sugaring Upgrades Most people treat hair. I treat the skin underneath. Book via the link in bio😉💙🤍💚

My decision to work with Mr. Lulu came from my evolution as an esthetician.☺️ My foundation in skincare started with corneotherapy and holistic aesthetics. I’ve always approached acne and hyperpigmentation gently and with deep respect for the skin barrier. Over time, as I continued advancing my education, I began integrating more clinical techniques to enhance the level of corrective results I could offer. 🤓 When I started working with medium-depth peels, the visible shedding and downtime weren’t ideal for my clients. They had jobs, meetings, and public-facing roles, and they wanted effective treatments that could fit into real life. What I love about this line is that it uses high-performance actives in high concentrations but is designed for no downtime. I can treat skin correctively without over-stripping or compromising barrier health.💫 It’s also incredibly versatile. Even though the line is small, the mixology possibilities are endless! I can mix products together and pair them with advance modalities allowing me to customize treatments based on what the skin needs in the moment making it incredibly fun and flexible. 💥 And it’s not just for the face! It’s gentle yet effective for intimate and high-friction areas, which is key in the corrective work I do alongside hair removal. I can target ingrown hairs, inflammation, and hyperpigmentation - turning hair removal into a true skin treatment.🤏🏾 Another major reason I chose this line is that it’s safe and effective for higher Fitzpatrick skin types, which is essential in my practice.🙋🏽‍♀️🙋🏾🙋🏿‍♀️ At the end of the day, this line supports my integrative approach - bridging both the holistic and clinical and corrective aesthetic worlds and treating the barrier with respect while allowing me to work with natural formulations that are SAFE and EFFECTIVE for the skin (hence the name Star Naturale Beauty😉). Estheticians: if your philosophy is results without unnecessary trauma, this is a line worth exploring. Check out @mr_lulu_skincare Clients: if you want corrective treatments that respect your skin and your lifestyle, this is exactly the kind of work I do! Booking link in bio.💚🤍💙

Most people think a vajacial is just a “facial" for the bikini area. It’s not ‼️ A professional vajacial is a corrective skin treatment designed to support how intimate skin functions after hair removal. 💡 This area deals with: • repeated friction • mechanical trauma through hair removal practices • occlusion from tight clothing • ingrown hairs • barrier disruption • post-inflammatory pigmentation Therefore treatment has to go deeper than cleansing or soothing. At Star Naturale Beuty the focus is on: •reducing inflammation • improving desquamation (how the skin sheds) •restoring the barrier •reducing TEWL (water loss) • improving overall skin function Because healthy-looking skin starts with healthy skin behavior.

This is what balanced well circulated skin looks like! These are the results from my Signature Holistic Facial where I combine various lymphatic drainage techniques such as MLD, facial cupping and facial gua sha. You can see before, even though in general she has good skin it was in need of some love and extra care as her skin's texture was slightly rough and her skin complexion a bit dull. (Dull complexion is something we all experience from time to time including myself🤗) which is why monthly facials and home care is so important.😉 Afterwards you can see how smooth her texture became. Her face was definitely brighter and sprang back to life with a healthy, luminous glow.😍 This is a one of a kind facial! It invigorates every one of your senses and is full of beautiful mini relaxing surprises in the facial. You will leave feeling exceedingly light and relaxed! 💆🏽‍♀️ It is perfect for all skin types especially those suffering from face puffiness. I put a lot of thought into designing this facial. It's not just about skin health but an entire EXPERIENCE! I especially selected for her the Activated Enzyme Scrub and Bright Powder Mask from @mr_lulu_skincare which aided in giving her those beautiful results😊 To book this facial, schedule yours via the link in bio!💙🤍💚

It’s SUPER stubborn and does require patience + consistency… BUT when the right clinical protocols + products are used, the skin can start responding beautifully. and sooner than you think!☺️ This client struggled with: • stubborn bikini darkness • follicular PIH • textural roughness • discoloration from friction, ingrowns + trauma from hair removal After just 2 sessions, we’re already seeing: ⭐ brighter tone ⭐ smoother texture ⭐ reduced shadowing ⭐ less visible follicular spots ⭐ AND the spots on her stomach are fading too (I did there for her as a bonus) And this is only the beginning 🙌🏽 These results were accomplished using products from Mr Lulu Skincare. 🟢 Clients if you're interested in Intimate Brightening services book your free consultation via the link in bio. 🟢 Aestheticians if you are interested in offering intimate brightening services to your clients, DM me on how you can get started with Mr Lulu.

I pour love into your skin. 💙 This sweet babe came in for a facial and based on her skin analysis and her history, I really had to take a very gentle approach. She isn’t the type of client I can do more aggressive treatments on — not even a light peel. Even manual exfoliation and enzyme treatments can be tricky with her, so I had to take extra caution as it had been the first time working on her skin. Thankfully, because of my foundation in holistic esthetics and corneotherapy, I had something special in store for her.☺️ I incorporated unique manual techniques to stimulate lymphatic drainage and paired them with deeply nourishing products to revive her complexion and restore balance. Look at this transformation — her skin went from lacklustre and tired to brighter, glowing, hydrated, and visibly more plump. Even her beautiful scars look a little softer.😍 (These pictures were taken with the same lighting, zero filters) She messaged me the day after with videos and the biggest smile, sharing how soft and supple her skin felt — and that her spots already looked better. 🥹 I'm going to post it in my stories! Moments like this remind me why I love skincare so deeply… it’s more than treatments. It’s care. It’s connection. It’s healing. If your skin needs a gentle reset, be sure to book one of my facials via the linknin bio or DM me for help in choosing one🤗

Skincare is more than products and treatments — it’s understanding your body, your story, and your skin’s deeper needs. I’m Renika, an Integrative Aesthetician 🧪🌿 and I help people transform their skin by looking beyond the surface. For a long time, I struggled to find my place in the skincare world because I felt like I had to choose — either be a Holistic Aesthetician or a Clinical Aesthetician. But I truly loved both, and choosing one side never felt right. So instead, I stayed quiet, offering skincare only to my clients privately… while hiding that part of myself online. Over time, through experience, I learned something powerful: When both philosophies are combined, the results are unmatched. 💥 Because breakouts, hyperpigmentation, ingrowns, texture, sensitivity — they’re not just skin issues… they’re often signals from within 🧠💙 So welcome to the other side of me — the side that loves skincare just as much as I love sugaring 🤗 I blend holistic healing 🌿 + advanced corrective treatments 🔬 to create results that actually last, not temporary illusions. You’ll be seeing a lot more skin-focused content from me, and I’m excited to share this part of my passion and journey with you 💚 If you’re ready to stop guessing and finally feel confident in your skin 🌸 you’re in the right place. Come along with me 🤍 This is Integrative Skincare. And it’s different. 😊

This picture reminded me of an important lesson — the importance of embracing our Naturale Beauty (pun intended 😉). Now yes, I do have on makeup here… but it’s minimal. For months this year, I wore hair extensions (for the first time ever) and lashes consistently — and honestly, I LOVED it. They made me feel more beautiful, confident, and put together. But after a while, I started realizing something… Whenever I didn’t have on the lashes, I felt like my face looked “tired.” Without the extensions, I felt “unfinished.” And that’s when it hit me — these enhancements, though beautiful, had slowly made me forget to appreciate my natural appearance. 😢 I'm sure im not alone here. Beauty enhancements can be addictive. So I made a decision: to take it all out, strip it back, and relearn how to love the face I was born with. 💫 At first, it felt strange — almost like I looked too “plain.” I was super tempted to go back. But I said no. I’m going to sit in this, embrace it, and re-appreciate the beauty God already gave me. And now, thankfully, I’ve found peace and love again in my natural reflection. ✨ I’m not saying this because I’m against beauty enhancements — far from it! I still love them and I’ll definitely wear them again when I feel like changing things up. But this picture reminded me of something powerful: Our confidence should never depend on external enhancements — it should flow from who we already are. As an esthetician, I’ll always celebrate the many ways we can enhance our beauty and express ourselves. But I also want to remind you: Before anything else — LOVE YOU! Love your Naturale Beauty. Because that’s the most authentic glow you’ll ever wear. 💙🥰😘

Since I started sugaring, I literally NEVER shaved again in my life!😯 I never even bothered to wax again either (I've only waxed once).🥴 It's such a joy to not have to shave every single week. I don't have to deal with the trauma of Brazilian wax (there's a reason why I only did it once lol). With my low pain tolerance, even though it still hurts when I sugar, I love how calm my skin feels when I'm done as opposed to having to deal with soreness for 3 whole days from waxing🤦🏾‍♀️ The smoothness and brightness of my skin when I sugar is unmatched.😲 And best of all, the ingrowns that I used to get from continously shaving in the past has dramatically reduced. Most months I get none. Some months only about 1 or two-- sometimes 3 for the most when things want to get annoying. 🙄 But you know what? I'm still okay with that because its a big improvement from what I used to experience with shaving and when I had once waxed. Now the texture and complexion of my skin especially in the bikini area especially has drastically improved. 😊 I love how soft, wispy and sparse the hairs grow back and they're not prickly and sharp like when I used to shave.😍 This is why I love offering this service. It's because I have experienced the benefits first-hand and wanted others to have that experience to! 🥰 If this sounds like an experience you would like to have, sugaring is worth trying! It's even better when you can trust the Aesthetician doing it on herself because in this way you can see I truly do believe in it. This is not my first video showing me sugaring myself so you know me sugaring is not just for content/marketing!😉 I actually do it! Once you go sugar, you never go back and I am a perfect example of that. Elevate your hair removal experience and book your glow-up by tapping the link in bio! 💙🤍💚

✨ Bumps after sugaring? Don’t panic — it’s usually just a histamine reaction! ✨ When hair is removed from the root, your body sometimes releases histamine as a natural defense response. This can show up as: ✔️ Redness ✔️ Small bumps (like goosebumps) ✔️ Mild swelling or itchiness 💡 These reactions are completely normal and usually fade within 24–48 hours. 👉 To calm the skin, avoid scratching, wear loose clothing, and apply soothing aloe or cooling gel. ✨ Sugaring = smooth, healthy skin without the long-term irritation of shaving or waxing! 📲 Book your appointment today by tapping the link in bio and let’s get you smooth, glowing and hair free!💙💚🤍

It's the reason why my treatment room be so damn cold! 🥶 😅 As you know, Trinidad is HOT! I am usually warm as I'm actively working, and sometimes you as clients may be warm yourself! In order to balance our HOTNESS 😂😉... I have to keep the room cold to cool us down🫠. This way, I prevent the sugar paste from melting and become a sticky mess, and terribly slowing me down (to my annoyance😒). My sugar babe veterans know about this all too well!🤭 So just in case you ever wondered...this is why! If the coldness is unbearable, though, I am more than happy to take off the air-condition when you are lying in the mud after I'm finished sugaring just to make sure you are comfortable 🤗 And if you're wondering how to book, the link is in the bio, you will also see the prices there when you select your desired appointments💙💚🤍

Struggling with irritation after waxing? 🥴 Switch to sugaring- your skin will thank you! 🍯 ✨️ Sugaring only sticks to dead skin cells and hair, making it less traumatic to the skin. Instead of leaving your appointment super sore and perhaps having that soreness last for days, this is dramatically reduced with sugaring in most cases. You'd leave feeling refreshed and ready to take on the day after you sugar!😉 Also, there is very minimal bleeding with sugaring, if any at all! Usually, this bleeding is pinpointed from deep-rooted coarse hairs, but as you continue sugaring, you'll find that this will hardly happen. Sugaring is a perfect hair removal method for those with sensitive skin! To book your appointment tap the link in bio!

It's not just hair removal. It's a whole spa day for your legs! ☺️ This salt scrub upgrade to your leg sugaring takes your sugaring results from good to absolutely amazing!

Your skin will recover much quicker as in most cases, it does not leave lingering pain or discomfort. It helps in reducing ingrown hairs (with proper homecare of course).

Thinking about starting Sugaring? Here are top 3 things I wish you knew!😉 To book appointments, tap the link in bio.🥰

Sugaring is not just hair removal. It IS skin care! Sugaring exfoliates your skin, and decongests your hair follicles, leaving you with not only hair free skin but your skin will be super smooth and healthy. The mud mask is a great addition to the service to detoxify the skin, calm your skin after sugaring hair removal, and purge those hair follicles. If you're looking for a safer, natural, gentler way to remove hair, look no further. Tap the link in bio to book yours😉

Come see what it's like to get Sugared with me!🤗🥰 If you want smooth skin your journey starts here. 💙

Post Sugaring Do's and Don'ts to avoid bumps!😉 DON'TS 👇🏾 1) Some people may feel itchy after sugaring due to a histamine reaction. This is normal! However, do not scratch it to avoid getting bumps. 2) Avoid exercise right after sugaring...wait 24 hours. 3) Avoid tight clothing and anything that can lead to friction in the area. Wear loose clothing to your appointment. 4) Y'all don't listen to me with this one, lol🤦🏾‍♀️..but wait 48-72 hours before having sexual activity if you've sugared your private areas. Friction, sweat, body fluids, heat???? Yeah...NO! Do at your own risk. Don't say I didn't tell you! 5) Avoid going to the beach 48-72 hours after sugaring. The salt will sting, and you more than likely WILL get bumps if you do this! 6) Avoid sun exposure and excessive heat from saunas, for example, for 24 hours after sugaring. 7) Avoid shaving or using depilatory creams in between your sugaring appointments as this will affect the refinement of your hair. DO'S 👇🏾 8) Exfoliate skin 2-3 days AFTER sugaring. You also want to do this 2-3 days weekly! 9) Hydrate and moisturize skin with a lotion/ cream that contains oils and water and humectants (ingredients that attract water to the skin). 10) Schedule your next appointment 3-4 weeks after sugaring. (Ideally 3 weeks). As your hair growth starts to slow down, you can begin to spread out the timeframe. Don't wait for the hairs to grow out fully. You risk getting more pain, and this also slows down your ability to see refinement in hair and possibly hair reduction. It seems like a lot, but it is VERY doable! As always, these are precautions and guidelines to give you the best results possible! Try your best to follow them💙

Prepping your skin before Sugating is KEY. Here's how!☝🏾👇🏾 1) Exfoliate 2 days before your appointment with whatever scrub you may have home... something is better than nothing at all. If you don't have any, that's okay. I can still work on you! 2) Avoid doing anything right before your appointment that gets you hot and sweaty (like exercise). This usually affects the consistency of the sugar. However, there are ways I can navigate if you can't avoid this. 3) Avoid trimming your hair. Leave the decision up to me to do it! For me personally, you MUST follow this rule for both of our sakes, please!🙏🏾 4) Wear loose clothing to your appointment to avoid friction, which can potentially lead to irritation after you have just sugared. 5) And one that I forgot to mention in the video, for facial sugaring, stop retinol use 1 week before. If you have done a chemical peel or abrasive service on the same area you want sugared, schedule your sugaring appointment 2 weeks after! This is an absolute must as well! This isn't to say that something bad will happen if you dont follow the rules. Most times, things are fine. (Except point number 5, you must follow this rule). They are just precautions to minimize the risk of irritations and reactions and to give you the best possible results and experience.💙🤍💚 I hope this was helpful.

Don't believe these things about sugaring☝🏾 These are the facts above!

You know it has never been my wish to do aesthetics. I actually wanted to become a psychologist. However, God had a different plan for me, and here I am!😁 But the great thing is that I get to serve but in a different way! As Aestheticians, our jobs are way more personal than you may think. We witness the highs and the lows of each client's life, and we often have to create a safe space for clients to just be!🧘🏾‍♀️ Sometimes, we are the only safe space a person may have. The only place they may get to experience safe touch. The only place they can catch a break. We are more than just service providers that make a client look pretty and groomed, but we help them emotionally and mentally as well. So I guess I still get to practice psychology in a different way, right??? 😆 I've learnt that there are actually wonderful people in this world because of your kindness, thoughtfulness, and grace! I've learnt that you get back what you give. When you be kind to people, people be kind to you in return. I've learnt the importance of being humble always because it is what helps me in connecting with you and what keeps me with a strong desire to learn not just from the industry but from you...my clients! Honestly, being an Aesthetician has helped me become a better person! I feel so privileged for every person who has trusted me with their insecurities, intimate areas, and even your secrets because I know this is not easy! I've witnessed your tears and your joys and always appreciate your support, and even your company! I truly adore each of my clients, male and female, past and present, and will forever be grateful to you! 💙🤍💚 ~~Renika😊

I literally just finished doing this video. So, here it is unedited lolol. Y'all I'm really trying my best with this social media thing! 🥴 Hope you all enjoy. Have a great day

Once you start sugaring, it's hard to go back!😉 Here are the benefits: 👇🏾 ✅️ the sugar paste is not hot, so you'd never get burnt ✅️ it only sticks to hair and dead skin cells, making it less traumatic to the skin ✅️ it is perfect for sensitive skin, dry eczema, and psoriasis ✅️ there is no double dipping ✅️ less hair breakage, which helps in reducing ingrown hairs ✅️ it is an all-natural form of hair removal as the paste is made of only sugar, lemon and water This is not just hair removal. It's an experience... well once you do it with SNB ofc🙃😆

This is how I sugar my own underarms! I'm always asked if I sugar myself. I would have posted my legs a long time ago, so here is another body part😊 Want to be a part of the sugaring journey? You can book via the link in bio. All the info you need is there. If not, don't hesitate to send me a DM.

Waiting too long in between sugaring appointments can do two main things: 1) Make your service more painful than it should be--it's like you're starting over every time,🥴 2) Delays your ability to see better results from sugaring.😟 Technically, sugaring every two weeks in the beginning of your sugaring journey is best recommended. HOWEVER, I know, this may not be feasible for many people❗️ So, to give you a sweet spot I'd say the better timeframe can be every 3 weeks (still technically once a month), especially at the beginning of your sugaring journey. As your hair growth starts to slow down, you can start spreading it out to 4-6 weeks, depending on your personal rate of growth. There is a science to this that will help you understand WHY it works this way, and I'll post a blog about this soon!😉

At Star Naturale Beauty, you definitely have a safe space where your comfort is super important!🤗 If you're looking for a spa to get your hair removal needs addressed, it's just a matter of scheduling those appointments! Let's get you started on your natural hair removal journey 💙🤍💚 Tap link in bio for more information on services.

Hey Everyone I'm super excited to announce that I am the Sugaring Educator for Alexandria Professional for the entire English speaking Caribbean!!! I have been working on it since last year and I can't wait to share what I have learnt with you! For more information follow @theaestheticianplug where all information will be posted! And ofc you know I have to thank Jesus Christ🙏🏾 for blessing me and @alexandria_professional_tt and @alexandria_professional for this huge opportunity! I will do my very best in imparting my knowledge to enrich your careers

Happy Birthday to me!!🥳🥳 When I look back at my life, I must say I'm super proud of who I have become. When I was within my pre-teenage years, I was a tomboy that ALWAYS ended up in a physical fight with my home friends 🤦🏾‍♀️ I hated combing my hair. My brother used to quarrel with me and would actually comb my hair for me. All I wanted to do was play😄 I felt so much like the boys that sometimes I would dress like one🙈 As a teenager, I became very negative and highly judgemental. Tbh, I won't say I was the nicest person (something I'm not proud of...but I give myself grace. I wasn't too aware at the time...even though I thought I was). In my twenties, I spiraled downwards sinking into a depression, suffering from severe anxiety, and even suffered from suicidal thoughts! I had low self-esteem and did not know my worth. I was very broke financially, spiritually and in every facet of my life. I felt so alone. I begged God to just kill me because I wasn't brave enough to do it myself. Eventually, death really started knocking on my door, and I became super scared. I prayed for God to spare my life so I could fulfill whatever His purpose was for me. Honestly, it got worse before it could get better. 😖 But His first big blessing to me was my business that literally dropped in my lap. I had no money to do it, but my distributor sheeztt helped me. The day this blessing came to me I was SERIOUSLY on my last mentally with life! Little did Shaliza know she also saved my life, cause I really was going to end it all myself that day! But God said NO! I think that's when I really REALLY started to seek Him. Fast forward to my 30s where I am now, and it's like I've made a 360. I'm much more feminine. Let's start there🤣. I actually like to dress up. I'm definitely not as aggressive as I used to be. I'm very peaceful and quite reserved now. I think before I speak and act. I see the good in others before the bad. I definitely know my worth now, and my relationship with my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ is so much stronger. However my patience has gotten worse though but I'm working on it😭 I am so thankful for God's work in my life! Thank You for another year🙏

Another question I get very often!☝🏾 Everyone grows at different rates. The key is monitoring your hair growth to determine how long it takes for your hair to regrow and when to return for your next sugaring appointment. Even though different body parts may grow at different rates, the sweet spot for most clients on average is to sugar every 4 weeks or once monthly.😉 For appointments you can schedule online via the link in bio(the prices are there to see when you select your desired service to book). Any questions you can always feel free to DM or WhatsApp me. I do respond to your messages.😊

I can assure you though, in most cases it will not be as bad as you think. Clients tend to overthink what the pain will be, and most times, the experience is much better! Nonetheless, I think I am the perfect person to sugar you if you have a low pain tolerance. I take my time with you. It is one of the reasons why the time scheduled for first-time sugaring clients is so long. It is to allow me to have you take breaks in between if you do need it because I care about you and your experience.🤗 Most times though, because it's never really that bad for most persons, I finish the actual sugaring portion of the service anytime between 10-20 mins for first-time clients depending on hair growth and how things go with how they feel. So don't be scared, hit me up, and schedule your sugaring service by tapping the link on bio. You can always start with something small like an underarm or even bikini line and move up from there. It's going to be worth it🥰

I've been sugaring for over 6 years and this is why I love it, my clients love it and why you would too!😉 1) If you have really sensitive or reactive skin, it is perfect for you! It is only made up of sugar, lemon and water (an all-natural formulation). Highly unlikely you'd have an allergic reaction from this. 🤜🏾 2) It doesn't leave a sticky residue. It is easily removed with water as sugar is water soluble.🙌🏾 3) Tired of being burned at your appointment? Well this is NEVER  gonna be the case here. The sugar is used at body temperature.😊 4) No need to worry about double-dipping. Sugaring is very hygienic. It is done with clean, gloved hands, and one ball of sugar paste is used to sugar multiple areas. If a new ball is needed, it is thrown away with the gloves, and a new glove is worn before getting more paste.🙂 5) It is so gentle that you can sugar over eczema and psoriasis to remove the dry patches and receive that gentle exfoliation that your skin needs.😯 6) It is less traumatic to the skin. Because sugar is not able to stick to live skin cells, even though you may experience some discomfort based on your personal pain threshold, it doesn't leave a stinging or burning sensation afterwards. Your recovery time is quick and your skin will look calm and feel unbelievably smooth afterwards. Check out my before and afters in my highlights for proof!😌 7) Your ingrown hairs will reduce. There are some people who no longer get any! Because the hairs are removed in the direction of growth, broken hairs are lessened and this helps in reducing ingrowns.  However, diligent homecare is imperative for best results.👍🏾 8) Your hairs become more refined. Most people who have been sugaring consistently have seen their hair shaft become thinner and softer. 😁 9) Hair growth is sparse and in many people the growth rate starts to slow down over time. This can just be you!😃 If you are looking for a much better experience in hair removal, then come visit me. I am trained with one of the top sugaring brands and globally recognized training from Alexandria Professional. I am very good at what I do! Read the reviews! I can't wait to meet you! 💙

What is Holistic Esthetics? 🤔 Holistic esthetics treats the skin from the viewpoint of it being connected and influenced by processes of the whole body. It is about connecting mind, body, and spirit and the effects they have on the skin. A holistic esthetician understands that just slathering products on the skin is not enough to bring about sustainable health to the skin. Consultations with Star Naturale Beauty are in depth where I consider your lifestyle, diet, and stress factors in addition to your current skin care regimen. In some cases, you may be recommended to seek alternative health therapies or undergo testing to discover what is happening within the body. I make general recommendations on how to improve lifestyle and diet habits where appropriate and within my scope of practice. Treatments with SNB combine traditional corrective esthetics modalities with holistic therapies such as sound healing, massage work rooted in traditional Chinese medicine (gua sha and facial cupping, acupressure), aromatherapy and breath work. I treat skin from a progressive or gradual approach, meaning I start with repairing and building the resilience of the skin, gradually taking each treatment up a notch when necessary to bring about improvements in the skin. To start your skin care journey with SNB, you can tap the link in bio to schedule a consultation or skin care treatment!😊

Happy New Year everyone!!!🥳🥳 I do want to thank all of my clients for being absolutely awesome! If there is one thing I never have to complain about, it's having bad clients. You have been so wonderful to me and made my job serving you soo easy. I want to thank you for being supportive of my dream💙. I genuinely do love you guys. Thank you to all my social media fam who support me. I see you 🫶🏾 And with God's grace, I look forward to this New Year and continuing to give my best at all times. May this year be absolutely great for you, where you achieve your hearts desires. 💕

Do I sugar myself?🤔 Yes I do! I do not offer services that I don't perform on myself. I must know how you feel, possible reactions first-hand and everything else so that I can properly be able to educate you!😘 I practice what I preach. 😉 Wanna get sugared? Tap the link in bio to schedule your appointment. You will also see the prices there. I can't wait to meet you beauties😊

Facial Massage and massage in general is much more important than you think! 😯 There is a reason why it is trending in the beauty industry. But today, I'm gonna talk about a big benefit that you might not be aware of!😉 Did you know that most of us are operating in a constant fight or flight mode? Most people are always in a rush. This is not healthy, and leads to many health and skin issues because of increased stress. This chronic stress can also affect your facial disposition giving you what we call a "resting bitch face." Safe touch is one of the most effective ways of activating your parasympathetic nervous system to bring your body back into homeostasis and relax your nervous system so that your body can function properly. 🧘🏾‍♀️ This is one of the reasons why I include massage in my facials. Because when treating the skin, it is so much more than just slathering active products on it. Skin is an organ that is also affected by processes that are happening internally, and we know that chronic stress can lead to accelerated aging and acne. I know you would have seen some people age significantly after going through a tough period in life! Or you yourself may have experienced a surge of acne whenever you are highly stressed. Also, repetitive movements and tension in the face leads to adhesions in the musles, causing lines and wrinkles. Through targeted massage movements and creating a safe space for you just be, and relax, I am able to help loosen up those adhesions in the facial muscles aiding in the process to relax them in an effort to reduce signs of aging. Of course, being consistent is where the magic lies. But this is why self-care is so important. So why not make time for yourself and allow me to help you facilitate your journey to self care and healthy skin! Where you can just close your eyes and feel your tension just melt away...sleep even if you wish! This is what I especially do in my Signature Holistic Facial. 💆🏾 Lay down and feel like this lovely client in the video. You can schedule an appointment through the link in bio🤗

Here's my Rejuvenating Facial☺️ This is a no downtime chemical peel treatment! It causes little-to-no peeling of the skin. This makes it perfect for persons who deal with the public or are around persons all the time and wish to have their facial treatments and still be a little discreet. This also means you can wear makeup the next day and proceed to your normal routine (with limited sun exposure of course and sunscreen). It keeps your barrier healthy (which I especially love). This is a facial that I do on my skin often. And let me tell you...I love the results!!😍 It is almost immediate giving you that baby soft, smooth skin, improving texture and radiance of the skin. It minimizes pore size, addresses signs of ageing and helps in brightening the complexion of the skin. Most of these effects can be seen almost immediately and typically improve once the initial dryness wears off within a few days as it improves cellular function and causes your skin to function more optimally. There are also peels for acne, which works phenomenal! (Must do a full consultation) And I can't wait for you to experience these results also. Tap the link in bio to schedule yours!!😘

I remember at beauty school when I first learnt massaging...I massaged a beautiful lady that was much older than me. And she told me "Wow...you have healing hands!" I had no idea really of what she was talking about. But I kid you not....everytime someone in my immediate family or circle have pain they're always like "Let Nicky( that's my home name) massage it for you she has good hands, the pain will go away." In my career, I've heard from clients that when I massage sometimes, it feels like I've done energy work of some kind on them. It felt so surreal...like they were transported to another place. They like how in-depth I am and how I make sure to get every body part and that I really do take my time. Honestly, I love massaging....that's the only reason why I do it. I love seeing clients come to me in pain, and then when they get off the bed, they're like a brand new person! I must say thanks to this client for giving me the chance to video him. My clients typically do not like videos which I totally respect. But when I get someone who is game...I get so excited lol! Anyway that's the end of my story😁 And if you want to book with me...tap the link in bio and select "Schedule Your SNB Service" you will see the cost and everything you need!🤗

Facial Gua Sha... another practice of Traditional Chinese Medicine!🎎 This ancient practice helps to: ○relieve muscle tension in the face and aids in relaxation💆🏾‍♀️ ○reduce adhesions in the fascia, which helps minimize signs of aging 😉 ○ improve circulation by increasing the flow of blood and lymph🩸💧 ○ release blocked meridians through promoting the flow of Qi (energy). ☯️ It is believed that when there are blockages of Qi, this can lead to pain and disorders in the functioning of the body. Applying gua sha to your facial routine helps to improve your skin's health and vitality, giving you a supple, plump and vibrant appearance.🔆 In the Signature SNB Holistic Facial, you can experience this Facial Massage and more!☺️ Tap the link in bio to experience a facial that will leave you in a state of calm, while achieving healthier skin💙

Facial Cupping...what does it do?! 🤔 Facial Cupping stems from the practice of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It helps mainly with lymphatic drainage and increasing circulation of the skin. It does this by gently suctioning and stretching the skin, pulling the skin away from the fascia, thus facilitating more blood flow to the area and allowing the lymph to drain. It also helps in the smoothening of the fascia to help with signs of aging. As a result of this, you can achieve even more benefits such as: ○ a healthier, more radiant complexion ○ reduced appearance in fine lines and wrinkles ○ it aids in toning the face ○ decreased puffiness through lymphatic drainage ○ due to increased circulation, nutrient delivery and product absorption are improved. With the SNB Signature Holistic Facial, you can experience all this and more! To schedule, tap the link in bio. You're gonna love this facial!😍

These are just a few steps from SNB signature Holistic Facial!☺️ This facial is great for those who just want to relax and feel pampered and also maintain good skin health😊 It is a great introductory facial as well. It includes all the steps of cleansing, steam, enzyme exfoliation, massage of the scalp, neck and decolletage and the face (where you can choose gua sha, facial cupping or just me using my blessed hands!) Of course a mask is done with a few more surprises in the facial😉 It is a complete full body experience where all your senses will be induced. In the end, you will feel refreshed and renewed as the point of this facial is to nourish your skin as well as help you to relax mentally and physically. At the end of her experience, she said, "That was fantastic!" I'm happy that she thoroughly enjoyed it, and you can too! Tap the link in the bio to schedule yours. You do not need to do a paid consultation before this facial. Just come in and allow me to help you relax and achieve healthy, glowing skin!🤗
