Jasmine Smith LE CSP

Licensed Esthetician & Certified Steamcare Provider

Jasmine is a licensed esthetician of eight years - specializing in Japanese facial technique and integrative skin health, extensively understanding conventional western skin treatments with rich knowledge of eastern skin health practices.

Her practice niche includes treating all skin tones, eastern & western skin care, and using anthropological data to understand the skin and its nature. She has worked in the spa and skin care industry throughout her 8 year career - including destinations such as Ten Thousand Waves in Santa Fe, NM; Osmosis Spa & Sanctuary and Laurel Skin Care in Sonoma County, CA.

In the golden age of skin care and clear skin, her approach doesn’t start and end with client goals and “glass skin”. Jasmine’s unique approach sets skin clarity as the expectation - while the goal is to expand deeper Skin-ship, throughout the journey of treating skin. While utilizing several Japanese facial techniques and deep relaxation as the foundation for beautifying results. The African and Japanese practice of skin-ship are integral to the way I treat and understand skin.

Skin • ship

The African anthropological practice of skinship is not “seeing” skin but seeing skinned beings as their age or date of origin. And flesh not being material and fleeting, but vessels of past ancestors and past reflections of the Earth.

Skin • ship

Japanese cultural practice and professional respect of skin contact. The collective understanding that human touch and rejuvenation are essential for survival, and or beyond the purpose of cosmetic enhancement.

These definitions are at the heart of Jasmine’s technique, quality of work, and results.
