Skintopia By Alex

Specialties

Alex originally got into this business because of her acne that could not be cured. She tried everything, Retin A, Accutane, antibiotics and topical ointments that felt like battery acid. Prior to getting into skincare Alex supported herself as a fine artist, and illustrator, designing for M.C.A. records etc.(this helps when it comes to permanent makeup) Today she considers skin her canvas, paying attention to the smallest of details. Because of the medical cakewalk she went through, Alex tried a different approach, Holistic skincare. Alex received her license through San Jacinto College (she was told by her esthetician that you weren’t anyone unless you studied under Mary Ellen Gardner). Mary Ellen teamed up with Dillards and Neiman Marcus when they 1^st came to town and was the 1^st person to put together an esthetics program in Houston Texas so the above companies could hire estheticians within the state of Texas. Upon graduation Alex attended Source Vitals college of Holistic Studies
