Julie Phillips, Esthetician

Julie has been an Esthetician for more than 30 years. She worked for renowned dermatologist Dr. Joe Fiore, as his assistant for 15 years in Fort Myers Florida. Her time working there taught her how to identify skin cancers and how to treat acne as well as run the back office of a busy 5 physician practice. Julie then moved to Pennsylvania and worked for plastic surgeons for 6 years, as the head of the hair transplant team, and the Esthetician in charge of helping the patients with their skin care and helping them with their post-care after surgeries. She was also the surgery scheduler for one of the surgeons.

In 1998, Julie moved to Santa Barbara to open her own skincare practice, Skin Essentials. She was the first Esthetician to bring microdermabrasion to Santa Barbara, which was a new and unheard-of treatment back in 1998. Julie’s philosophy from the beginning was to deliver impressive, long-lasting results with every facial. At Skin Essentials, there is a vast array of machines to assist with the facials. Microdermabrasion, ultrasound, vibraderm, and Oxygen all help make the facials at Skin Essentials even more special. In addition, having the most technically advanced products is a real passion for Julie. She believes it is a very important adjunct to having healthy beautiful skin.

Julie is also a certified permanent makeup expert. She has spent 27 years helping women look good when they wake up in the morning. She has helped many women who cannot see as well anymore, or have Parkinson’s and can’t apply it, or who have had cancer, and have no brows. Julie volunteered for Look Good Feel Better program for 10 years helping women going through cancer treatment on how to care for their skin and hair and how to apply makeup.

In the years that Julie has had her business in Santa Barbara, she has been dedicated to bringing the best possible treatments for men and women in her skin care center. She has been married to her husband Frank for 41 years, and he participates in the business by doing all the bookkeeping. In her spare time, she enjoys traveling with her husband.
