In-Person or Virtual

Meet at the Rock Hill studio for a hands-on assessment, or connect from home for product advice and routine reviews.

Questions

Frequently Asked

What happens during a consultation?

Caroline reviews your current skincare or makeup routine, discusses your goals and concerns, and provides personalized recommendations. For skincare consultations, this may include a visual skin assessment. For makeup consultations, she'll evaluate your features, preferences, and lifestyle to suggest products and techniques.

What's the difference between a skincare and makeup consultation?

A skincare consultation focuses on your skin's health, concerns like acne, aging, or hyperpigmentation, and building an effective daily routine. A makeup consultation focuses on product selection, application techniques, and finding the right colors and formulas for your skin type and personal style.

Can I do a consultation virtually?

Yes. Virtual consultations are available and work well for routine reviews, product recommendations, and general guidance. In-person consultations are ideal when a hands-on skin assessment or product testing would be helpful.

Do I need a consultation before booking a treatment?

It's not required, but it's a great option if you're unsure which service is right for you. A consultation helps Caroline understand your skin and goals so she can recommend the most effective treatment plan from the start.

How long does a consultation last?

Consultations typically run 30 to 45 minutes depending on your needs. Caroline takes her time to be thorough, so you'll never feel rushed.
