About Our Expert Skincare Specialists

“Beauty doesn’t just happen, it happens by appointment!”

Skin health is my passion. Having been an acne sufferer my entire life, I know how frustrating it is to search for solutions. That personal journey inspired me to obtain my esthetics license and transmute my passion into a career focused on corrective skincare.

I have grown as a licensed esthetician over the last 16 years and strive to stay relevant, educated, and approachable. I like to say my clinical facials are “clinical with a relaxing touch.” I have created a warm and inviting space at our Cottonwood skin boutique; a space curated to leave you feeling truly pampered and welcome.

As I creep toward my 50th milestone birthday, I now have an increased awareness of aging, which drives my focus on anti-aging skincare. I work with trusted professional skincare lines, including PCA Skin and the Face Reality acne system, and have a variety of equipment to address all skin concerns. My specialized services include professionally certified dermaplaning, hydro-dermabrasion, advanced chemical peels, and micro-channeling technology.

I will work with you as an individual, and together we will find a customized solution for the skin issues you are concerned with. My clients will never feel pressured to buy or do anything they do not want. I believe if it is something I cannot offer, I have a professional obligation to be upfront and refer you out to someone who can. Having lived here in the Verde Valley since a teen, I am well connected to the Cottonwood, Sedona and Clarkdale communities and have nurtured many professional relationships.

In addition to skincare, I am now offering beauty enhancements such as the Elleebana lash lift and tint, along with brow and eyelash tinting, all available to add to a facial. My clients appreciate that each treatment is customized and includes a relaxing massage. Please join our email list for updates on new specials, products, services & more. I am also on Facebook and Instagram.

I truly believe a referral is the highest compliment a person can receive.

Hi, I’m Kristen. I have a growing family and reside here in Cottonwood, Arizona. I graduated from Penrose Academy in Phoenix in 2023 and became a certified Acne Expert with Face Reality in 2024. I became an esthetician because I’m passionate about helping people who struggle with their skin.

I personally dealt with acne for years and remember how overwhelming it felt—not knowing what to use, who to turn to, where to go, or how to truly clear my skin. That experience is what led me to this career.

My goal is to be the support and guidance I once needed for you; helping you understand your skin and giving you real, effective solutions so you can feel confident again.
