In this episode of Esthetician Unlocked, host Elaine Sterling sits down with Candace Marino, founder of The LA Facialist in Beverly Hills, to talk about building a skincare business on authority, customization, retail and actual hands-on skill.

      <description>The beauty industry has spent years selling bigger and stronger everything - higher concentrations, more actives and “better” results. But Dr. Tiina Meder asks: at what cost? In this episode of Esthetician Unlocked, host Elaine Sterling sits down with Dr. Tiina Meder, dermatologist, cosmetic safety expert and founder of Meder Beauty, to unpack the microbiome, the rise of sensitive skin, the overuse of retinol and why safe skincare is not “less advanced” skincare. Tiina gets into peptides, probiotics, barrier health, brand education, the gut-skin-brain axis and why estheticians need to stop confusing aggressive with effective.</description>
      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<div><br>Somewhere along the way, the beauty industry decided that more is better. More retinol. More exfoliation. More concentration.

Tiina talks about the science behind peptides, proteins, probiotics, dysbiosis, the gut-skin-brain axis and why product education should go deeper than branded talking points. She also challenges estheticians to partner with brands that actually teach anatomy, physiology and ingredient function instead of handing them a sales script dressed up as education.<br><br></div><div><strong><br>What You'll Learn:<br></strong><br></div><ul><li><br>Why Tiina moved from cardiology into dermatology and skincare innovation</li><li>Why she believes peptides, proteins and probiotics are part of the future of safe skincare</li><li>Why brand education should teach skin anatomy and physiology, not just product benefits</li><li>How the beauty industry actually <em>created</em> the rise in sensitive, irritated skin</li><li>Why retinol is powerful, overused and in need of more professional control</li><li>What the microbiome actually does for skin immunity, resilience and aging</li><li>How the gut, skin and brain are connected through inflammation and stress</li><li>Why acne, depression and inflammation cannot always be treated as separate issues</li><li>How estheticians can build more trust by recommending less, but recommending smarter<br><br></li></ul><div><br>This episode is for every esthetician who is tired of watching clients wreck their skin in the name of “results” and wants a smarter, safer, more science-backed way to talk about skincare.<br><br></div><div><strong><br>About Tiina: &nbsp;<br></strong><br></div><div><br>Dr. Tiina Meder is a dermatologist, cosmetic safety expert and founder of Meder Beauty.

Through Meder Beauty, Tiina has developed products centered on peptides, probiotics, prebiotics and safe, science-backed formulations designed to support professional skin practitioners and their clients. Tiina has educated beauty professionals in more than 40 countries and continues to advocate for a more ethical, informed and safety-conscious beauty industry.

      <description>Chemical peels, dermaplaning, microneedling, devices, treatment stacking - the esthetics industry has never had more tools. But more tools never made a better practitioner. In this episode of Esthetician Unlocked, host Elaine Sterling sits down with Lyn Ross, founder of Institut’ DERMed, to talk about the science, discipline and emotional intelligence that has driven her skincare practice for over 4 decades. Lyn gets into the product knowledge estheticians cannot afford to fake, why unconditioned skin should not be pushed into aggressive treatments and why the healing power of touch still matters in a device-obsessed industry.</description>
      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<div><br>The esthetics industry loves a new tool, a new peel, a new device, a new protocol - anything that looks like the next “must-have treatment”. But not all that glitters is gold.&nbsp;<br><br></div><div><br>In this episode of Esthetician Unlocked, Elaine Sterling sits down with Lyn Ross, founder of Institut’ DERMed, to talk about what real professional mastery looks like.

In this episode of Esthetician Unlocked, host Elaine Sterling sits down with Crystal Ngozi Ochemba, founder and lead esthetician of Crystal Ngozi Beauty and Esthetics, to talk about building a real, profitable, and purpose-led practice. From niching down in skin of color to pricing with confidence, preselling services, protecting cash flow, and leading with education instead of equipment flexes, Crystal shares the kind of advice estheticians usually have to learn the hard way. This episode serves as a much-needed reminder that nothing can save a bad beauty business - not even the most expensive lasers in town.</description>
