Ep. 400: Lymphatic Drainage, Gut Health, and Holistic Skincare ft Shani Hillian
Shani Hillian’s holistic skincare journey began in her grandmother’s garden, where fresh-cut aloe was the go-to balm for skin issues. Now, with over 17 years of experience as an esthetician, she leverages her roots in holistic skincare to create rituals that restore balance for herself and her clients. Shani shared her experience of transitioning from hair styling to skincare, influenced by her modeling career, and discussed the importance of simple, effective skincare routines. Our conversation also covered Shani’s experience with pregnancy-related hair loss and her tips for skin-friendly nutrition, emphasizing balance rather than strict restrictions. And I couldn’t let Shani leave without getting all her expert skincare tips. She explained the benefits of oil cleansers, how to find non-comedogenic oils, and the philosophy behind her minimalist approach to skincare. She also discussed the impact of lifestyle habits, such as exercise and nutrition, on skin health. This episode highlights the importance of understanding individual skin types and the value of holistic, well-balanced beauty routines.
