Burnout, Business Pivots & Staying Relevant on Social Media with Morgan Rackley
Q: What do you think we need to watch out for, or invest in, as upcoming trends?
Rackley expects more hands-on, comfort-focused skincare, including massage and bodywork, alongside corrective treatments. She believes clients will increasingly want relaxation and touch even as AI and access to products make some skincare routines easier to do at home.
Burnout, Business Pivots & Staying Relevant on Social Media with Morgan Rackley
Q: How did you come to the conclusion that you wanted to pivot from lashes to skin?
Rackley became interested in skincare around 2018, then grew tired of managing a large lash business and saw prices falling. When her lease ended during the pandemic, she closed the lash business and opened a skincare suite, which quickly filled through Instagram.

The guest says overseas versions of common hydrodermabrasion devices are widely available, recommends avoiding digital models when possible, and says overseas suppliers may provide parts and assistance. The guest advises against overseas lasers.
Device Industry Exposed with The Markup Report

Korean Skincare with Kin Aesthetics (original airdate 11/26/24)
Q: What should an esthetician know about incorporating Korean skincare into their practice?
Start small with a couple of treatments, study the protocols, leverage Kin's training and Facebook community, and gradually build a home-care line that complements the in-clinic treatments.
