It's back to school time again!  Whether you're walking your kids to the bus stop, resuming class yourself, or just witnessing the act of people going back to school, September is always a good time to take a refresher course on the basics of beauty.  Just remember to read the instructions before you begin.
Main Lecture:
Always Be Prepared

Before leaving for school (or in her case, work) Miss Maintenance, Naomi Lewis always packs a tidy bag complete with her beauty essentials so she's ready for anything.  This month we asked what she'll be toting with her for fall.  Her essentials are listed below along with why she never leaves without them.
  • YonKa Phyto Contour Eye Firming Cream:  Contours and minimizes puffiness, dark circles and crow's feet.  "Some think eye cream need only to be applied first thing in the morning or right before bed, I take it a step further and add a dab mid-day while freshening up.  Keeping the eye area hydrated is key for preventing wrinkles and minimizing the fine lines we already have."
  • La Natura Lip Balm:  Heals, soothes and conditions lips with Shea Butter, Vitamin E and Aloe Vera.  "Everyone needs to hydrate their lips, why not do it with a product that not only smells amazing (try the different flavors) but enhances your lips natural color too?" 

  • Yonka Lotion Toner, Mini Spritzer:  Balances the skin's natural level of moisture and oil and works to tighten your pores.  "I keep this in my bag no matter what the season.  The lavender scent awakens my senses in the fall, and keeps me refreshed in the warmer months.  Absolutely invigorating!"
  • Jane Iredale Sugar & Butter Lip Exfoliator: A smoothing and plumping lip duo made with brown sugar and shea butter.  "Perfect for when your lips need a little exfolitaion.  The ginger and mint diminish fine lines around your lips while the peptides work to keep them plump."

Anna Monaco
New to Class:
Anna Monaco

If you've been on the HM campus lately it's likely that you've seen a new face; her name's Anna Monaco and we put her in the hot seat with a few questions to get to know her better.
  
How long have you been an esthetician?  How long for HM?  "I've been an esthetician for nearly 4 years and a little over 3 months with High Maintenance."

Why did you choose to be an esthetician? "I was inspired by my friend Heather. I've always wanted to work in a field that makes people feel good and where I can be a part of healing and provide good energy."

What's your favorite product line?  "So far I'm loving YonKa, can't wait to learn more about it."

When you're not working your magic at HM, what do you enjoy doing with your free time? "Photography and anything that stimulates my mind."

Do you have any silly human tricks?  "I can pull my arms all the way backwards and back to the front.  I think doing gymnastics for so long as a child made this possible."
