A STRONGLY FELT AIM, AMBITION, OR CALLING

Mi historia

JESSECA M SMITH

¿Cómo empecé?
Mi experiencia en el cuidado de la piel se remonta a 1992, cuando trabajé como asesora de cosméticos y maquilladora para un importante minorista de belleza y luego me desempeñé como autónomo. Después de eso, tuve la oportunidad de trabajar con un químico cosmético y co-crear productos para una línea de productos de belleza natural que se vendió en más de 3,000 tiendas en todo el país, como Nordstrom, Whole Foods, Wild Oats y Anthropologie. Mis objetivos cambiaron gradualmente de productos de venta estrictamente completos a abrir un Day Spa & Boutique, un concepto que se hizo realidad en Dallas, Texas, llamado Avocado Tree, que finalmente se llamó Apothecurious Fresh Spa & Boutique.
Muchas tiendas grandes se acercaron a comprar nuestro concepto, finalmente vendimos el negocio en 2008. Desde entonces, he tenido experiencia adicional como fabricante de cuidado corporal y propietario de spa y boutique antes de convertirme en un esteticista con licencia de la junta de NIC. Operando primero en Dallas y luego en Seattle, llamado Fresh Face Seattle. Mis spas fueron redactados repetidamente por
la prensa * en críticas entusiastas e incluso votado como "Mejor facial de la ciudad". Fue una experiencia increíble. Durante este tiempo, descubrí mi amor por la tutoría y el aprendizaje de esteticistas en ciernes. A través de este proceso y la culminación de mis años en este negocio, he llegado a comprender la importancia de poseer un sólido conocimiento de los ingredientes, incluida su imperativa frescura y efectividad en nuestra piel.

Ahora llevo mis años de experiencia y amor por el negocio a un invitado a la vez y a los estudiantes en un salón de clases y, finalmente, al compartir mi conocimiento y educación con ustedes. ¡Disfrutar! Jesseca.

Let's begin with HYLUNIA. What makes Hylunia the skincare line every woman in the world would want to use? Having occupied a special place in the hearts and dressing cabinets of customers for the last 30 years, there are plenty of things that make Hylunia so attractive. Here, we talk about just the top 10 reasons why buying Hylunia products is the best choice you’ll ever make for your skin! * Effective healing and hydration with hyaluronic acid Our products are known for their incredible effectiveness, helping you tackle a variety of skin concerns and bringing balance and vitality to your skin within weeks. This is made possible by using high molecular weight hyaluronic acid derived from sugar beets. While low molecular weight hyaluronic acid tends to have a detrimental impact on skin inflammation, the hyaluronic acid used in our products will help your body heal itself and stay hydrated longer. * 30 years of proven results Since our inception in 1988, we have been perfecting formulations capable of helping your skin heal and restore itself to its original, youthful state, free from the burden of chronic inflammation and signs of premature aging. Recognizing the need for comprehensive research, our insights and formulations are derived by a team of scientists with a combined experience of over 200 years! Today, our products are popular for having an instantaneous impact on the skin, even helping you limit the severity of serious skin conditions such as psoriasis, eczema, and rosacea. * Standing strongly by our core values Hylunia was founded with the core purpose of benefitting humanity and creating a safe, effective, and anti-inflammatory skin care line. This would have been next to impossible to achieve without our core values. Guiding us in everything we do, our core values have been instrumental in helping us deliver a skin care line that is preservative-free, paraben-free, toxin-free, gluten-free, GMO-free, and cruelty-free. As we move forward, our products will continue to take a balanced, holistic approach to skin care which gives our customers the freedom to treat their skin with the utmost love and care. * Fights the root cause of disease and premature aging Hylunia was founded because Dr. Lingam and his wife could not find soothing, anti-inflammatory skin care products for their baby daughter. What followed was a period of solid research during which it was discovered that subclinical inflammation, including continuous inflammation, was a precursor to disease and the root cause of premature aging. This led to the establishment of a safe, effective, and natural skin care line primarily aimed at minimizing inflammation of the skin. Today, every one of Hylunia’s skin care products helps soothe and restore the skin, helping to minimize inflammation and give you a lasting, luscious glow unlike any other skin care line on the market. * 5. Blends ancient Ayurveda and modern science While most people tend to choose one over the other, our co-founder, Dr. Lingam, chose to see things from an entirely different perspective. He directed all his time and energy into developing formulations guided by modern scientific knowledge and supported by ancient Ayurvedic wisdom. Hylunia’s products are prepared with a host of natural or naturally derived ingredients that find a place in standard Ayurvedic practices, without compromising on basic requirements such as texture and longevity. * Deeper skin penetration for maximum impact Hylunia’s products are formulated with deep penetration technology, using liquid crystals to reach the deeper layers of the skin. This deeper level of penetration allows our products to help you tackle serious skin conditions and mitigate their effect on your skin. Carrying a host of powerful vitamins, antioxidants, plant peptides, and plant stem cells, our products can maximize the impact of these substances on the skin to give it a lasting, natural glow. * Prioritizes prevention over cure Most skin care products rarely focus on improving anything more than your looks and more often than not, this improvement rarely lasts long. A lot of such products even end up harming your skin in the long run. At Hylunia, we believe true beauty is not just about how your skin looks but what goes on underneath.  This is why instead of only treating surface-level symptoms, our products also help prevent subclinical inflammation from causing any lasting damage to your skin.   * Helps you look younger as you get older At Hylunia, we believe that getting old is inevitable in life, but looking old isn’t. Our products are formulated keeping in mind the impact that stress and inflammation have on aging. We have an entire product line dedicated to slowing down the process of premature aging. Harnessing the cell damage-fighting abilities of natural or naturally derived antioxidants, our anti-aging products help you maintain soft, luscious, and glowing skin no matter your age!   * Adopts a whole person approach to skin care Dr. Lingam has always said the key to maintaining healthy skin is a focus on mind, body, and beauty. Everything matters when it comes to your skin’s health. Right from your daily routines to how you react to situations; it may seem surprising, but these are all factors that affect the health of your skin and they make a significant difference in the long run! This is why Hylunia lives by certain basic tenets, called Hylunia’s Skin Care Wisdom, that advocate a whole person approach to skin care to effectively root out stress and prevent inflammation from wrecking havoc on your skin. * Potent, plant-based ingredients, powerful results Just a brief look at any of our products’ ingredients section will tell you how we prepare our products. All our ingredients are either natural or naturally derived; our formulations are developed keeping in mind fundamental Ayurvedic principles and this means the ingredients are easily available all around us. Some of our most effective ingredients include plant peptides, plant stem cells, antioxidants, and vitamins found in a wide range of natural sources including grapes, oranges, turmeric, mangosteen, and others in an exhaustive list.

How we got started....

MISSION Day Spa is the result of the combined expertise and passion of Jesseca and Chip, who have extensive backgrounds in the beauty and crane industries, respectively.

Her focus then shifted to opening a Day Spa & Boutique, which gained recognition and acclaim in Dallas and Seattle. Alongside her spa ventures, Jesseca also mentored and apprenticed aspiring Estheticians. Chip, on the other hand, has a strong background in the Crane Industry, starting in 1996 and rising to managerial positions.
