EDITION #002: Hannah Bailey with H+Aesthetics
Hello! I'm Hannah Bailey, Owner and Master Holistic Aesthetician at H+Aesthetics. H+A was founded in 2014 in the small rural town of Blanding Utah, with the intention of supporting others in their skincare journey.
A passion for skin health and natural elements is what brought me to aesthetics and I have always believed that great skincare should be accessible to everyone. One of the most rewarding feelings is helping others discover their unique inner and outer beauty and as an aesthetician you have the opportunity to really support people in that way.
Q: HOW DOES ÂN-BALM COMPARE TO TRADITIONAL FACIAL OILS IN TERMS OF SKIN BENEFITS AND APPLICATION?
A: I honestly do not feel like there is any product that compares to ÂN-BALM— it is in a league of its own, truly one of a kind. The quality and composition of ingredients are unmatched. One thing that I have always loved about ÂN-BALM is the consistency— the way it feels as you apply it to your skin, and how it interacts and absorbs into the skin. It is so much more than just a product, it is an experience.
Q: HOW DOES ÂN-GLOSS HELP MAINTAIN LIP HEALTH, ESPECIALLY IN HARSH WINTER CONDITIONS?
A: ÂN-GLOSS is the only lip product that I have used that actually feels like it is treating the lips (because it is). I live in a very dry climate, so ÂN-GLOSS is a star both for me personally, and in the treatment room. It contains five skin-identical ceramides and vegan cholesterols that actually strengthen and moisturize. Barrier support is key for all skin, and ÂN-GLOSS is such an effective product to support healthy lips. It's the perfect final step to a skin treatment.
Q: HOW DOES THE COOLING TIP TECHNOLOGY™ IN ÂN-GLOSS ENHANCE THE LIP TREATMENT EXPERIENCE?
A: Every ANFISA product is created with so much care and there is no detail ever overlooked. The Cooling Tip Technology is such a unique feature and helps support and soothe the lips. I love when a product is reliable and consistently performs— this technology really enhances the product and elevates the overall application experience. My clients love it!
Q: WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO PARTNER WITH ANFISA SKIN, AND HOW HAVE THE PRODUCTS IMPACTED YOUR BUSINESS?
A: When I first came across ANFISA Skin, I was drawn to the carefully crafted, performance based, high-quality ingredients. I was impressed by the quality of the formulation and integrity of the company and their products. I remember opening my very first jar of ÂN-BALM and thinking to myself that this was going to become a staple in both my personal skincare routine and also in my professional treatments. ÂN-BALM is the best-selling product in my skincare studio and has really had the ultimate positive impact on my small business. Sharing products that are created with integrity, seeing the results and how it helps others is truly so rewarding.
Q: CAN YOU SHARE SOME PERSONAL SKINCARE TIPS OR ROUTINES THAT INCORPORATE ANFISA SKIN PRODUCTS?
A: ÂN-BALM is always my last step at night and it is a staple for me. It provides the perfect amount of slip and glide to follow with my Gua Sha ritual using the Moon White Jade Gua Sha. I usually apply a thick layer of ÂN-GLOSS before bed, it is the most incredible overnight lip treatment mask. Another tip I find to be helpful is when incorporating ÂN-DEW into a routine I prefer to apply it in the morning on fresh skin. This is especially helpful if you incorporate other exfoliating or active products in the evening.
Q: HOW DO YOU STAY UPDATED ON THE LATEST TRENDS AND ADVANCEMENTS IN THE SKINCARE INDUSTRY?
A: I try to be really mindful of what I am consuming, and generally try to steer away from trends and gravitate towards more long-term sustainable skincare practices. I do love to read, research and test things out for myself. If there is a new product or treatment that really sparks my interest— I like to educate myself as much as I can. Sometimes I find talking to other industry professionals is very helpful, but most of the time I end up testing things out for myself so that I can really make an educated decision on if it is something I would like to incorporate personally and professionally. I also believe that continuing education is a key to expansion and growth, so I love to attend skincare trainings and seminars to constantly learn, grow and stay up-to-date on upcoming products, technologies and techniques regarding skincare.
Q: WHAT DO YOU ENJOY MOST ABOUT BEING AN ESTHETICIAN?
A: The skin and functions of the skin have always been fascinating to me for as long as I can remember. I have been in the skin industry as a professional for a little over 12 years and one of the things that is still so beautiful to me about the skin— is that we all have it, but it is so uniquely different for everyone. I love the discovery of skin and working one-on-one with people to help curate and tailor products, encourage routines and rituals that help support the skin, body, and soul. Being an esthetician is so rewarding because you get to be an integral part of people's skincare journey. I love helping people, it is the greatest feeling in the world to help someone feel comfortable in their own skin and embrace their unique beauty.
