As some of you may have read in an online article written by dermatologist, the article was telling people that "Studies show that as many as 80% of people break out after a facial. Aestheticians often don't know which products are right for the skin of each client, and may use ingredients that can worsen acne, or essential oils that tend to irritate sensitive skin. Even if you don't break out,there are really no long-term benefits to facials."

CCI would just like to say that we know how important estheticians are and all the wonderful work you guys do. Depending on the state estheticians are required to go through set number of hours before they can even get their license. After getting your license many of you go on to post graduate training to futher your knowledge of proper skin care It is wrong for for someone to denounce what estheticians do with out knowing the facts. Yes there maybe the occasional inexperienced estheticians that caused clients to breakout more or prescribe the wrong products, but that doesn't mean every estheticians doesn't know what they are doing. Many of you estheticians are great and provide your clients with the best treatments. CCI would like to give a big thanks to all the estheticians out there. Also CCI knows its hard for the beauty industry right now in this economy, but we just want to wish everyone the best for 2009.
