This beauty school is amazing. Atmosphere is great and very welcoming by instructors and students. This beauty school offers plenty of services to choose from which is great due to the fact there are some beauty schools that do not offer lash lifts or extensions or brow laminations. You can tell that the students are very well trained at this school by knowledgeable instructors. Highly recommend

This school is amazing! I’m a hands on learner so I LOVE that the instructors aren’t just assigning homework and lectures, they are introducing the material and at the same time allowing us to have hands on learning to make sure we are understanding and applying all aspects of being a great esthetician.

I’m currently a student at Olympia School Advanced Skincare for my Master Esthetics license with the new market program. i started going to Olympia Advanced skincare for services and loved the environment so much when I heard they had a program catered to high schoolers I had to take the opportunity. I will be able to attend both high school and this school and graduate both places with my diploma and certificate at the same time. I am learning so much with this program and the instructors are amazing!

I’m currently attending OSAS for their master esthetics program and I love it. Jin, Courtney, and Alex (the instructors) are all so sweet and helpful. Not only do they educate you on how to pass state boards but they also teach you how to be successful in the industry. If you’re interested in going to school and becoming an esthetician I 100% recommend coming here I love the dynamic all of the girls have created with each other. I have learned so much already and can’t wait to be licensed

I started the Master Esthetics program in November and can say this has been a great experience. The instructors are very knowledgable, kind and supportive. I chose this school for their part time curriculum and their hands on training. If you’re looking for an esthetic school that creates a balance between work life/kids and still getting your license while having an immense amount of support this school is for you!! I am almost finished with my certification here and will miss each and every one of the instructors and classmates. Thank you Jin, Courtney, Alex and Matney ❤️

I had a good experience. It’s really evident that everyone in charge cares about the students attending, and will help them any time they need it. I have plenty of state board practice which makes me feel confident for my upcoming exams. I think the one thing that might improve the school is having one more instructor/an assistant to help during hands on learning, just so everyone is extra secure in what they’re doing. I feel I used some of the best of best products and tools to learn, and I’m very grateful for that! Schools can easily charge more for less, but Jin made sure we always had what we needed, in the best quality, and more.

This past week has been full in every sense of the word.

Between teaching, community events, and networking groups, my days have been packed from start to finish. I’m tired, but also reminded why I do this work in the first place.

It’s never just about the schedule or the exhaustion that comes with it. It’s about connection. It’s about building something bigger than one classroom, one event, or one conversation. It’s about community.

And even as this upcoming week begins the same way, I’m staying grounded in that purpose. Because the impact is always worth the effort.

Here’s to the relationships being built, the people showing up, and the communities growing stronger one connection at a time.

Every room in our school holds a future.

A future where someone walks in unsure… and walks out confident.
Where friendships are built, skills are mastered, and passion turns into purpose.

In every hallway, there’s laughter.
In every classroom, there’s growth.
In every treatment room, there’s transformation.

We may not be able to show you every corner of our space but trust this:
what’s happening inside these walls is bigger than what you see on social media.

It’s discipline.
It’s resilience.
It’s becoming the best version of yourself.

If you’ve been thinking about your next step… this is your sign.

Come experience it for yourself.
Come walk the halls.
Come feel the energy.

✨ Your future is waiting here.

✨ Honest conversations about what actually works (and what doesn’t)
✨ The latest in skincare products, treatments, and advanced technology
✨ Behind-the-scenes education from inside our classrooms

We don’t just teach skincare, we live it, test it, question it, and evolve with it.

If you know me, you know I don’t stick to just one skincare brand. I’m always testing, learning, and evolving my routine. Because in this industry, staying curious matters.

I recently stopped by Sukoshi Mart and honestly… it felt like stepping into a skincare playground. So many Korean skincare lines, innovative ingredients, and formulas that are truly ahead of the game.

One product I had to try? The Medicube Collagen Night Wrapping Mask.

Here’s my take:
This mask is designed to lock everything in overnight think hydration, barrier support, and that plump, refreshed look when you wake up. The texture creates a “wrapping” effect that helps seal in active ingredients while you sleep.

✨ What I noticed:
• Skin felt noticeably more hydrated in the morning
• A subtle plumping effect (hello collagen support)
• Great for repairing and reinforcing the skin barrier

What I love about Korean skincare is the intention behind its gentle, effective, and focused on long-term skin health. And this mask fits right into that philosophy.

As a school director and someone who’s been in this industry for years, I’ll always say this, don’t be afraid to explore. Trying different brands helps you understand ingredients, formulations, and what truly works for your skin.

Because great skin isn’t about trends… it’s about education and consistency.

Have you been to Sukoshi yet? Or tried this mask? I want to hear your thoughts 👇

We don’t just follow the industry… we stay ahead of it.

At our school, advanced education isn’t optional, it’s the standard. From lasers and IPL, to radio frequency, advanced Hydrafacial techniques, microneedling, and clinical-grade chemical peels, our students are trained in the modalities that are actively shaping the medical spa industry.

But what truly sets us apart?

We don’t just teach theory, we build practitioners.

Our students gain real, hands-on experience working with advanced technology, understanding not just how to perform treatments, but why they work. It’s the difference between memorizing protocols and thinking like a true skin professional.

We focus on developing critical thinkers in aesthetics providers who can analyze skin, customize treatments, and deliver real results with confidence.

Because in this industry, knowledge matters…
…but applied knowledge is everything.

Advanced education is what sets professionals apart—and in this industry, staying current isn’t optional, it’s essential.

At our school, students don’t just learn the basics… they are immersed in advanced services and modalities that reflect what’s actually happening in today’s treatment rooms. From corrective skincare techniques to cutting-edge technologies, we believe hands-on experience is where confidence is built.

Understanding advanced modalities isn’t just about learning how to perform a service—it’s about knowing why it works, when to use it, and how to customize it for every unique client. That level of knowledge creates results. And results build trust.

We are committed to preparing our students for more than just passing exams—we’re preparing them for real careers, real clients, and real success in a constantly evolving industry.

Because when education goes deeper, so does your impact. ✨

Change can feel uncomfortable… but that’s where growth lives.

Every step forward—even the small, uncertain ones—is progress. You don’t have to have it all figured out. You just have to keep moving.

Embrace the shifts. Trust the process. Fall in love with the journey, not just the destination.

Because the truth is… the life you’ve been dreaming about isn’t out of reach—it’s being built, one decision at a time.

Keep going. You’re closer than you think. ✨
