Why We Created This Scholarship

I went through esthetics school myself, and I remember how every dollar mattered — for kits, books, the licensing exam, even gas to school. This scholarship is my way of giving back to a profession that gave me everything.

If you're passionate about skincare and ready to work hard, I want to help. The skincare industry needs more thoughtful, ethical, well-trained professionals — and you might be one of them.

— Tiffany, Founder of Heavenly Skin
