Lash tech wanting to offer facials?

[Kyra Kendall]

Hi! I have a friend that told me that I can offer facials with all-natural ingredients homemade products without being certified or going to school for it. Is that true??
It will actually be just a facial scrub and/or face mask.

No. I can’t imagine any insurer willing to provide cover. if you haven’t been trained in skincare how would you be able to identify skin type and condition, or then know what products are or aren’t suitable. You wouldn’t know what is contraindicated. If you want to offer facials you should look into proper training and gaining an appropriate qualification.

You may also find your state requires licencing as you are in the U.S., you may want to look up your states legislation and regulations.

You will need to be a licensed aesthetician or cosmetologist.
