▫️the opinions of others typically doesn’t matter.
▫️however, when they are opinions from coworkers, your ears seem to perk up a bit.
▫️at aveda institute, our faculty is not just a staff, we are a team. a team that cares about one another. we care about one another’s personal development and growth.
▫️while my back was turned, each one of my team members wrote a word that they felt described me best.
▫️when I turned around to read the mirror, my mind was blown.
▫️not only did they compliment me, but they built me up. I’ve never even heard someone say some of these things to me!
▫️I’m so blessed to have a team that has my back, builds me up and carries me through.
▫️once again, aveda institute changes my life for the better on a daily basis.
▫️my cup is constantly filled.

▫️at we have a note system called “daymakers”
▫️anytime someone makes your day or has been a great help to you, you can create a “daymaker” card.
▫️tuesday i had all of my students create a daymaker for someone else. the next morning during our school wide huddle, we would pass them out.
▫️thinking my students had made cards and notes for other students, I was SHOCKED to receive 4 of my own!!!
▫️just receiving these sweet notes MADE MY DAY!
▫️it’s so important to spread positivity and keep these students feeling appreciated! they returned the favor and made ME feel SOOO appreciated!
▫️I love my job and adore my students!
▫️big smiles!!

▫️why is sunscreen SO important?
▫️well let me break it down for you... whether it’s rain or shine, UV rays STILL find us.
▫️sun damage is cumulative. this means that every little trip to the mailbox starts to add up over time.
▫️UVA & UVB rays pe*****te the skin and do so much damage to our cellular DNA.
▫️WEAR YOUR SPF!

▫️ever since i graduated from i have bugged the director about getting in as an educator. (like relentlessly for years)
▫️it’s been one of my top goals for so long to get in there and educate future esthetician’s.
▫️year after year i was told either the position had been filled or they weren’t in need of one. mind you, there’s only 2 educators for the entire esthetics program.
▫️WELL GUYS persistence is EVERYTHING because guess what?!
▫️i am FINALLY going to be joining the team as an esthetics educator intern!
▫️first i’ll complete 500 hours of internship under an educator, go take my state board test and become an official educator of aveda institute lafayette!
▫️THRILLED is an understatement and i CANNOT wait to start sharing my experiences, passion and knowledge with my future students!
▫️i told y’all i was going to make 2021 my bitch didn’t i?
▫️work hard, stay consistent and be persistent with what you want. make those goals, do what you gotta do and don’t think for a second that you’re not good enough.
▫️in this esthetics industry, believing in yourself is what’s going to set you sooo far a part from everyone else.
▫️wake up and choose yourself.

▫️so today i was going through old pictures and videos in my phone and came across some gold.
▫️it truly opened my eyes to how hard i busted my ass when i first opened my business. the fire i had to get content out and share the word on heathy skincare.
▫️y’all i started in my spare bedroom in my apartment. idgaf at all what i had and what i didn’t have. that’s when you know you got the passion and drive to go big.
▫️i had sleepless nights, was battling health problems and losing my mind all while trying to put together AV ESTHETICS.
▫️to be honest, AV ESTHETICS was born out of chaos. i was so all over the place with wild dreams and big ideas.
▫️no one could stop me. to look back at the past two years and to see where it’s lead is just such an awesome feeling.
▫️forever grateful for the people who surrounded me and supported me since day one ESPECIALLY
▫️don’t give up on your dreams. make your dreams a reality and KEEP FIGHTING. stay consistent and plant those seeds.
▫️i love the quote, “the day you plant the seed is the not the day you eat the fruit.” i may still be waiting on some fruits but hell that’s the fun of it.

I got the worst skin nightmare I think I could have ever dreamed of…
December 2018 was the beginning and the end was March 2019. After feeling so sick that I couldn’t make it to work anymore, after painful blisters, lesions, patches, skin condition after skin condition, doctor after doctor, more than 6 diagnoses and more than 12 prescriptions, hundreds of hours of research, leaving my job and starting my own aesthetics business... I’m here to tell you that if you have problematic skin, you’ve been told multiple things, been recommended crazy amounts of products and medications…
Hi, I’m Amanda Victoria. I’ve been a licensed esthetician for 7 years in the state of Louisiana. I’ve always been passionate about skin care but it wasn’t until I endured the worst of the worst that I started becoming passionate about SKIN HEALTH. Healthy skin is beautiful skin. I graduated from a very reputable aesthetics program from Aveda Institute back in 2012 and passed my state board licensing exams with flying colors not long after. I’ve not only acquired hours and hours of research, but have also worked with top of the line physicians, estheticians, and professional skincare consultants in the past 7 years.
I can’t tell you how glad I am that you're here. I created this website just for you. As I’ve grown in this industry, the one thing that continued to be prevalent was the correlation between mental health and skin health. So i decided to start focusing on working from the inside out by really implementing self-love and self-care into skin care programs. I offer programs because I truly believe that healthy skin takes time and it shouldn't cost us an arm or a leg. Consultations are a must before any service is booked. I make sure that I understand your skin completely, what course of action needs to be taken and conduct a plan specifically for your needs.
Enjoy the site and I look forward to hearing from you very soon!
