Get Trained in Aromatherapy and Essential Oils

Aromatherapy is the use of essential oils from plants for healing. Essential oils are concentrated extracts taken from the roots, leaves, seeds, or blossoms of plants. Each contains its own mix of active ingredients, and this mix determines what the oil is used for. Essential oils have been used for therapeutic purposes for nearly 6,000 years. The ancient Chinese, Indians, Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans used them in cosmetics, perfumes, and drugs. Essential oils were also commonly used for spiritual, therapeutic, hygienic, and ritualistic purposes.

What You Will Learn

The Aromatherapy and Essential Oils course will cover a more holistic approach to skin care by awakening your senses. You will learn how to analyze your client’s skin to determine which essential oils will most benefit their skin type.

In this class, students will learn the history, use, properties, benefits, and precautions for the top 10 essential oils used in skin care. We will cover topics including natural vs. synthetic, sense of smell and the olfactory response, the art of blending for clinical results and holistic consultation.

Students also learn to safely use and develop their own blends of massage oils, serums, and personal inhalers. Understanding the precautions with essential oil use when dealing with specific clients having special needs including those who are pregnant, babies, children and the elderly will also be covered.

What does an Esthetician Do?

Estheticians are skincare specialists who use treatments to cleanse and beautify the face and body. These treatments work to enhance a person’s appearance and well-being. They provide facials, upper-body treatments, and other skin care treatments, including masks, waxing, and peels.

Other Duties and Treatments May Include:

Assessing clients’ skin condition and discussing available treatments
Creating daily skincare routines for clients
Recommending and selling skin care products
Teaching clients how to apply makeup and take care of their skin
Removing unwanted hair using wax, lasers, or other approved treatments

Many estheticians own and operate a salon or spa, managing all aspects of their business, including employees, record keeping, inventory, advertising, and fiscal responsibility.

I chose Atelier Esthetique because of their rating online. A past employee of mine also attended Atelier Esthetique and graduated and is currently working at a spa. The education at this school is great. Once I complete this program I hope to further my skills in the skin care industry and land my dream job and eventually work for myself and open a business.

Studying esthetics almost 10 years ago was the best decision of my life! I had been practicing law for 12 years, but I was very unhappy. So, I kept my job and started the part-time evening program to pursue my passion for skin care. I am currently in my 8th year of business as the owner of a top laser center in Midtown Manhattan.

I chose Atelier Esthetique because of their close relationship with European Wax Centers. I also liked that there was a two-week intensive New York State waxing license program. Someone I know who took this class at Atelier Esthetique and recommended it to me.
