Overwhelmed by the skincare aisle, or using a routine that is not working? In 30 minutes, a licensed esthetician looks at your skin, learns what you use now and how you live, and builds a simple morning and evening routine in writing. You leave knowing what to keep, what to skip and what to add, with sun protection planned for Florida heat and humidity and no pressure to buy anything.
Clear answers instead of guesswork
A routine in writing
Short, specific steps for morning and evening that you can follow the same day, written for your skin and your schedule.
Built for Florida
Heat, humidity, sweat, pool water and strong UV change what skin needs. Your plan puts sun protection first and keeps layers light.
Honest advice
We tell you what to keep, skip or add, including when you already own what you need. There is no pressure to buy.
Start where you are
Brand new to skincare or deep into a shelf full of products, we work with what you have and your budget.
What happens in 30 minutes
- Your goals and your current routine. You tell us what bothers you, what you want and what you use now. Bring the products or photos of them if you can.
- A close look at your skin. Your esthetician examines your skin and explains in plain language what she sees, such as dryness, congestion, sensitivity or sun exposure.
- Habits and climate. We talk about sleep, water, makeup, sun, sweat, pool time and anything your skin reacts to, because the best routine fits your real life.
- Your simple routine. We build a short morning and evening routine, usually a cleanser, moisturizer and SPF as the base, with an extra step only if your skin needs it.
- Sun protection for Florida. You get practical guidance on choosing and wearing SPF every day, including how much to use and when to reapply.
- Keep, skip or add. We go through your products one by one and tell you which to keep, which to retire and what, if anything, is worth adding.
- Your written plan. You take home the routine in writing, along with suggested next steps if you would like a facial.
What a beginner routine usually looks like
Morning
- Rinse or gentle cleanse, matched to your skin type.
- A light moisturizer that suits Florida humidity.
- Broad-spectrum SPF every day, reapplied outdoors.
Evening
- Cleanse to remove sunscreen, makeup and the day.
- One targeted step only if your skin needs it.
- Moisturizer to support comfortable, hydrated skin.
This is the typical shape, not your plan. Your esthetician personalizes it, and it is general skincare education, not medical advice.
What to bring and what to expect
Bring
- The products you use now, or clear photos of the labels.
- A short list of concerns and goals.
- Notes on allergies, medications or products that sting.
Good to know
- This is a consultation, not a facial treatment. There are no extractions or hands-on treatment steps.
- It is general skincare guidance and does not diagnose or treat skin conditions.
- If you would like a hands-on visit, the Gentle First Visit Facial is a natural next step.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Beginner Routine Consult?
It is a 30-minute, one-on-one session with a licensed esthetician for $45. She looks at your skin, asks about your current products, habits and Florida climate, and writes a simple morning and evening routine for you. It is a consultation, not a facial, so there are no hands-on treatment steps.
Do I have to buy products from you?
No. The advice is honest and there is no pressure to buy. Your esthetician will tell you what to keep, what to skip and what, if anything, is worth adding. Many guests leave with a plan built mostly from products they already own, and suggestions are chosen to suit your budget.
What should I bring to my consult?
Bring the products you use now, or clear photos of the labels, plus a short list of your concerns and goals. Note any allergies, medications or products that sting or burn. If you cannot bring everything, come anyway. We can still build a useful routine from what you remember.
Can the consult help with acne, dryness or sensitive skin?
It can help you build a gentle, consistent routine around common concerns such as breakouts, dryness, dullness or sensitivity, and your esthetician can tell you whether a facial might help. It is general skincare education and does not diagnose or treat medical conditions. For persistent or severe skin problems, a medical provider is the right next step.
How much is it and how do I pay?
The Beginner Routine Consult is $45 for 30 minutes. At checkout you can pay a 20% deposit today or pay in full today. Pay in full if you want to use Affirm and pay over time. You can cancel or reschedule free up to 24 hours before your visit, with an automatic refund. Every $1 you spend earns a Lumina Loyalty point.
Should I book the consult or the Gentle First Visit Facial?
Book the consult if you mainly want routine advice and honest product guidance. Book the Gentle First Visit Facial if you want a calm, hands-on treatment as well. The facial is 60 minutes for $85 and includes a skin consultation, so you can ask routine questions there too. Many guests start with the consult and add the facial later.
How long will it take to see results from my routine?
Skin changes gradually, and results are cosmetic and vary by person. Many people notice skin feeling more comfortable and hydrated within a couple of weeks of a consistent routine, and sun protection works best when it becomes a daily habit. Your esthetician will suggest when to check in and what to adjust if your skin feels different.
