In this episode, Valeria is joined by Jordan Harper, a Board-Certified Nurse Practitioner and Founder/CEO of Barefaced. They delve into Jordan's unique journey from working in pediatric ICUs, to becoming an injector and then establishing her own skincare brand based on her clients’ needs. From Botox to Mini Facelifts, Jordan and Valeria discuss the highs and lows of facial augmentation and when and how to know which procedures are right for you. Together they also explore the foundational elements of effective skincare routines, the efficacy of in-office treatments like microneedling and Botox, and the evolving landscape of aesthetic procedures. Additionally, Jordan sheds light on the significance of using the right products based on skin type, Barefaced’s mission of “Less is More”, and the broader conversation around aging gracefully while maintaining mental and physical well-being.
