Our Team
Susan Khalili
Skin Care Therapist/ Skin Guru
I was born to take care of people, I was born to treat people and to share my knowledge of skincare. I love beauty and what it does for women, the way they look at themselves in the mirror, how it can renew a fading self-confidence. Skincare that goes beyond the outside and shines from inside the soul. I’ve been treating clients in the Aesthetics industry for over 2 decades.
