Skincare Experience  

Acquiring science-based skincare knowledge and performing safe and effective esthetic treatments is a passion of mine. My journey began a long time ago with my own acne. Today, we have a wealth of knowledge that can help you understand your own skin condition and how to maximize your skincare.

Much of my experience has come from the hundreds of clients who attended a Victorian skincare salon retreat I created in 1991, located on Union Street in San Francisco, called Rosewater Skincare. I’ve enjoyed teaching the art of skincare locally and continue to love addressing my client’s skincare needs in my private studio in West Linn.

For many years I’ve followed the research and philosophical approach described as Corneotherapy. This research has been conducted over many years by Professor Peter M. Elias and other prominent scientists, and it was Dr. Kligman (inventor of Retin-A) who articulated that the stratum corneum (SC) has many diverse functions and that it is very much alive! This research has revealed that many problems exist in our US market over the counter formulations and how we deliver skin treatments. We need to be highly respectful of the “living” cells of our skin that make up the outer-most layer and its relationship/responses to those procedures and products estheticians use and prescribe.


Testimonials

Testimonial - 

“Sandee has the perfect blend of professionalism and friendliness in both her personality and in her spa environment which makes every visit comfortable, pleasant and relaxing. The spa is clean, decorated simply with soft colors, textures and lighting with a few candles lighted and soft music playing. She doesn’t go over the top with spa jargon and all the extra “fluff” :) At my first appointment with Sandee confidently talked to me about my adult acne problems and listened with compassion and gave me the hope I needed to indeed have clear skin within 3-6 months. Sandee always talks to me straight forwardly, is patient with all my questions and does her very best to give me the skin care program both at the spa and at home that will work best for my skin and my budget. While getting treatments at the spa Sandee always explains what she is doing and why she is doing it so I’ll know what to expect. Now that I’ve gone through the 5 month program my skin has cleared so dramatically that I rarely get a blemish anymore. This means I’m spending less time in the bathroom covering up my face and more time out in the world enjoying myself. Sandee helped me get my confidence back and that is priceless!” Julia F.


Me

When I am not in the salon working with clients, I am usually enjoying the beautiful outdoors of the great northwest. I remember the first time I saw beautiful West Linn, Oregon, and even though I spent my youth in sunny California, I’ve always felt deeply connected to this luscious green environment. I feel so fortunate to be here to experience skiing, surf and turf, and all the adventure the great Pacific Northwest has to offer in its art galleries and city nooks.
