Show notes
Let's face it, in our profession there are many words that are a challenge to pronounce. Yet, some try anyway. In this episode of Esty Talk, we discuss commonly mis-pronounced words, along with overused phrases and widely accepted misconceptions. From salicylic acid to "but I want to peel, peel" and many things in-between.

About Ella Cressman:
Ella Cressman is a licensed esthetician, certified organic formulator, business owner, and absolute ingredient junkie! As an educator, she enjoys empowering other estheticians and industry professionals to understand skin care from an ingredient standpoint rather than a product-specific view.
She has spent many hours researching ingredients, understanding how and where they are sourced, as well as phytochemistry, histological access, and complementary compounds for intentional skin benefits. In addition to running a skin care practice, Cressman founded a comprehensive consulting group, the HHP Collective, and has consulted for several skin care lines, including several successful CBD brands.
