Valhalla Medical Spa

So I know its been awhile and I have neglected this blog...a lot...maybe even more than that but if you are still out there reading then here is a little update of where I am at now....

I'm working at the Valhalla Medical Spa in Vegas and I am LOVING IT! What a difference it is working at a place that is legit. haha. I mean this place has the top of the line products, lasers, treatments, employees etc. I feel so blessed to have this opportunity to expand my knowledge in the esthetics field.

I am doing medical esthetician things at the med spa...procedures like laser hair removal, lipo-laser, fotofacials, velashape (for cellulite!!), spider veins, skin tightening....etc you get the picture. We also have some amazing skin care lines, La Roushe-Posay, Biomedic, Obagi, Skin Cueticals, and Color Science!!

But I am trying to get a place set up now to do steam relaxing facials and body waxing out of my house!! (I'm also looking into do eyelash extensions too!)

I am still in the training process at my work right now but pretty soon I will be able to start talking clients for everything!! check out everything we do here

as of lately

Oh the joys of packing...

This might be big enough for all my junk




For those of you who haven't heard of all the madness I am moving to Vegas this weekend without Tanner :( I got laid off my job and instead of sitting around Utah for another month I decide to apply for a job in Vegas. I got the first job I applied for! Although it will be really hard to be away from Tanner for the next month I know this is the best decision for our family. I will be working at the Vahalla medical spa part time. Check out their website here. Or become a fan on facebook and get all the monthly specials! I will be running their zerona laser and elctroslim machine while doing esthetician stuff as well like laser hair, IPL, facials etc. If any of you Vegas people are ready for some laser hair removal before the summer time hits or some laser lipo let me know. I start next Monday! Until now I will be packing up boxes and more boxes and then some more and oh a storage unit too. Who has this much stuff?!

Winter Makeup tips

So I know we all know those days, its freezing, windy, snowy, rainy, bitter outside and our face shows it. We've got the winter blues.

Cracked dry flaky lips-yes we've all experienced these awful things. Try this
Fresh Sugar Rose Tinted Lip Treatment SPF 15 and reapply it throughout the day. Drink water to stay hydrated and avoid those long-lasting lipsticks that end up drying your lips out and enhancing the dry cracks.

Pale Cheeks- running late in the morning? Try adding some blush to your cheeks. It only takes 30 seconds and it will give your face some life, color and dimension! Tips- try finding your natural blush tone, think of what it looks like when you blush or get hot is it more orangy, pinkish, rosy??

Dull Skin- Brighten up your skin with a lovely tinted moisturizer or some bronzer. Just because it may be gloomy outside doesn't mean we have to look like it. Tinted moisturizers are great for days we are running late. Make sure to find one with an spf in it, like this one. Now don't go over board on the bronzer k. We have all seen what that looks like. Try thinking of where the sun naturally would hit your face...cheeks nose a little on the forehead and jawline. Try to find a bronzer 2 shades darker than you're natural skin tone.
