Skin Care Basics Workshop July 14, 2009

Skin Care Basics consists of two workshops that simplify skin physiology, personal regimens, and ingredient knowledge for the beauty curious.

On Tuesday July, 14 and 21 from 5:45 p.m. to 7:45 p.m. at the BCAE, students will learn how to be savvy consumers and find products that will treat their concerns as well as skin type—even formulate their own toner. The lessons taught are focused around each step in a regimen: Cleanse/Tone, Treat, Moisturize, and Protect. Every student will receive a reference portfolio (specifically created for this workshop) containing lesson details, relevant press articles, and information on products distributed. Expect SWAG from five luxury brands!

The course will be instructed by biopharmaceuticals professional, Mary Capozzi, and local beauty consultant, Michele Sotallaro. Capozzi offers the logistical scientific elements and Sotallaro provides product knowledge to the series. Combined they represent over 18 years of education and experience with skin care.

The tuition fee includes expenses for provided materials and take-home products from brands like Boston's own, Fresh.

Students are not required to have any previous formal training, only a simple and practical interest about skin care. People who are intimidated by Sephora, do not routinely schedule spa appointments, and who are searching for alternatives before an expensive visit to a dermatologist are candidates for this workshop.
