Personally, I love Dermalogica and use it in the salon I work for, although I don't think they stock to Mobile Therapists.

My Friend is a mobile Therapist and uses Eve Taylor, they aren't too pricey and are really nice products.

Check out some previous threads on here about them and I'm sure your find lots of info!

When you say freelance are you going to be working from home? mobile? salon?

The best thing you can do is to phone the suppliers and ask them for their literature and samples and you will then get a feel for the products.

Hi Safira

Just saw your post...thought I'd let you know that a stock Eve Taylor in my salon and so advised a friend that wanted to do mobile therapy to contact them about a kit - she did so and got a fantastic kit at a great price. She now even buys retail products to sell while shes mobile and says people really love them and it sells so well for her. It's the same here in my salon....hope I may have been a help. Best of luck in all cases

Regards
Janice

I use Danne Montague King & MD Formulations combined with Microdermabrasion and LED Lights.

I like ranges that I can use mobile as well as salon based, and that I have to 'prescribe' to clients. I do a full skin clinic diagnosing skin problems and devising a treatment plan to get results.

Because I dont retail so to speak I prescribe I get most clients purchasing the full range off me and also creating repeat sales.

thanks guys..

ive decided to concentrate more on waxing, massages and eyelash xtensions for now..

i dont feel very confident doing facials as yet as i really want to know a great deal about skin (i no i need to throw myself in at the deep end but im not ready for that yet!)

i will do some research into the ones mentioned and will let you know what product i end up using..

many thank
