After celebrating National Skin Care Month in September, the 20th anniversary of Abundance Skincare is coming right up. We opened our doors on November 14, 2004, after my 20 years in corporate life. My journey to skincare was inspired by my own seemingly unresolvable skincare problems after a long period of extended stress.
After 5 years of working with the medical system, the problems grew worse. It was finally an esthetician that helped me understand that the skin is a reflection of our gut health, and it can be healed. Since then I have worked with chiropractors, acupuncturists and functional medicine practitioners to better understand how the gut and stress affect our skin health, as well as with progressive skincare vendors who shared my belief that we need to resolve the root cause. If we support the skin with the right products on a consistent basis, while protecting against environment damage, skin - at any age - can be dramatically improved.
Throughout these 20 years (and 20,000 facials!) I have had the privilege of working with amazing clients, each with unique skin and goals, and to whom I am incredibly grateful for their trust and the friendships that resulted. My greatest desire is that my clients understand that regardless your age, the skin is renewing itself 24 hours a day, every day, until we take our last breath. I'm here to support you, and I hold each one of you in my heart every day.
Thank you, Chrysann, for giving so much encouragement to women who are trying to maintain their natural outer beauty while staying healthy on the inside, too! You have been a great source of information, and I appreciate all the time you have taken to speak to me on the phone and advise me across the many miles. Someday, I hope to meet you in person!
All my best in the next 20 plus years to come.
Hugs,
Patricia Tessler
