Holiday Skin SOS: How to Help Your Clients Glow Through the Busiest Season - Plus: Book 3 in Your Winter Resource Series Is Here!

The holiday season is officially in full swing — and for estheticians, that means two things: a packed schedule… and clients showing up with holiday skin emergencies.

Between colder weather, indoor heating, holiday stress, travel, and last-minute event prep, skin can behave unpredictably this time of year. Many estheticians notice the same seasonal patterns:

• sudden dryness or dehydration

• dull, tired complexions

• irritation from weather changes

• breakouts from stress + sugar

• lack of sleep showing up on the skin

• clients needing support between appointments

Your clients rely on you more than ever during December — and this week’s post is all about helping you support them through every holiday skin SOS.

🎄 Why Holiday Skin Acts Up

December is a perfect storm:

• cold air strips the skin

• travel disrupts routines

• stress hormones spike

• late nights + makeup + festivities = congestion

• hydration habits shift

• clients forget their skincare routine when busy

This is where your leadership, expertise, and guidance matter most. And it’s the perfect moment to provide them with simple, professional, esthetically-approved support — especially in between visits.

✨ Introducing Book 3: The Glow-At-Home Holiday Facial

Your newest client resource is here — and it’s designed to support YOU, not replace appointments.

We’re excited to share the final eBook in your holiday content series:

📘 The Glow-At-Home Holiday Facial

A cozy, simple self-care ritual your clients can use between appointments to maintain results — all created to complement your professional treatments.

This guide does not encourage clients to replace expert care or skip facials. Instead, it:

✔ reinforces the importance of your professional work

✔ extends results between appointments

✔ gives clients a safe, esthetician-approved routine

✔ reduces the risk of DIY damage or bad internet advice

✔ strengthens your authority in your client’s daily skin decisions

✔ offers value during your busiest season

✔ keeps them engaged with YOU between visits

Think of it as a “glow maintenance guide” — not a replacement for booking.

🎁 How to Use the eBook in Your Holiday Marketing

You can customize the guide with your name, business details, and recommended products, then share it as:

• a holiday lead magnet

• a thank-you gift for loyal clients

• a bonus for booking a December facia

l• a “pre-event prep” guide

• part of a holiday skincare kit

• a nurturing resource for clients you can’t squeeze in this month

Clients love simple, beautiful, expert-approved resources — and they appreciate the care you’ve put into supporting them through the busy season.

This also positions you as their go-to skincare authority heading into January (hello, new-year-new-skin bookings!).

✨ A Professional Touch on DIY: Why This Matters

Clients will try things at home during the holidays — steaming, masking, scrubbing, “night before the party” experiments…And not all of it is safe.

This eBook helps you control the narrative.

It teaches clients a simple, soothing, esthetician-approved at-home ritual that:

• won’t irritate the barrier

• won’t disrupt professional treatments

• won’t undo the progress they’ve made

• won’t lead to over-exfoliating or TikTok disasters

By giving them your curated at-home ritual, you protect their skin and your results.

🎄 Extra Tip: Pair the eBook With a Retail Push

Glow-at-home routines naturally pair with:

✔ hydrating masks

✔ enzyme exfoliants

✔ peptide or HA serums

✔ barrier-repair moisturizers

✔ gentle cleansers

✔ winter facial oils

Because the steps require what you sell — it’s a perfect, subtle retail opportunity.
