Welcome to Beauty Notes
I’m Isabela, an esthetician student and beauty writer. I’ve been writing and editing in the beauty industry since 2019. Between researching the hottest beauty trends, testing products, and studying the science behind glowing skin, I’ve made it my mission to discover what works.
You might recognize my work from StyldLIfe, where I’ve been writing blogs on hair, fashion, and beauty in collaboration with StyldLife’s team and a talented group of celebrity stylists. Here, we’re digging into beauty and skin beyond the surface. The Beauty Notes is your skincare cheat sheet, coming from an estehtician student and beauty junkie who has tried her fair share of products and at home DIYs.
Whether you’re a skincare newbie, professional, or just looking for a fun skincare read, you’ve come to the right place. Consider this your trusted source for all things skin.
Stay tuned,
Isabela
