The skincare industry is booming and there is a high demand for qualified consultants. In fact, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fortunebusinessinsights.com\/skin-care-market-102544\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fortune Business Insights<\/a> (as of September 8th, 2025):\r\n\r\n<em>&#8220;The global skincare market size was valued at USD 115.65 billion in 2024. The market is projected to grow from USD 122.11 billion in 2025 to USD 194.05 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.84% during the forecast period. Moreover, the skincare market size in the U.S. is projected to grow significantly, reaching an estimated value of USD 30.42 billion by 2032, driven by rising demand for organic and natural products to surge product demand.&#8221;<\/em>[\/vc_column_text][\/toggle][toggle color=&#8221;Default&#8221; heading_tag=&#8221;default&#8221; heading_tag_functionality=&#8221;default&#8221; title=&#8221;What does a skincare consultant do?&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; text_direction=&#8221;default&#8221;]A skincare consultant provides individualized recommendations and advice on the best skincare products and practices for their clients. In addition, they may also provide facials, skin treatments, and other services.\r\n\r\nIt\u2019s important to note, however, that skincare consultants are NOT qualified to perform any surgical cosmetic procedures. Similarly, they cannot prescribe medical treatments. If a client needs this type of assistance, a skincare consultant can use their expertise to advise them to seek out the help of a licensed dermatologist.\r\n\r\nTo become a skincare consultant, you will need to have in-depth knowledge about different types of skin, skin conditions, and available treatments. Furthermore, it\u2019s important to be up-to-date on the latest industry trends and developments. This way, you can offer your clients the most current information and skincare advice possible![\/vc_column_text][\/toggle][toggle color=&#8221;Default&#8221; heading_tag=&#8221;default&#8221; heading_tag_functionality=&#8221;default&#8221; title=&#8221;What&#8217;s the difference between a skincare consultant and an esthetician?&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; text_direction=&#8221;default&#8221;]\r\n<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element \">\r\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\r\n\r\nAn esthetician is a type of skincare consultant that provides beauty treatments. Services they may offer include facials, chemical peels, waxing, and even makeup application. In contrast, a skincare consultant\u2019s focus is on providing individualized recommendations about the best skincare products and practices for their clients.\r\n\r\nA skincare consultant will not perform any duties that alter a client\u2019s skin or general appearance. This means that skincare consultants cannot provide services like chemical peels or waxing.\r\n\r\nThe educational requirements are also different, too. In order to become an esthetician, you\u2019ll need to complete a state-licensed cosmetology or esthetics program. This typically takes between 9 months to 2 years to complete. Once you\u2019ve completed your training, you\u2019ll also be required to pass a state board exam. This will earn you an esthetician license.\r\n\r\nAlternately, you don\u2019t need to complete a state-licensed cosmetology or esthetics program in order to work as a skincare consultant. Instead, you can focus on completing a skincare consulting certification program &#8211; such as the <a href=\"\/online-makeup-courses\/skincare-course\">Skincare Course offered by QC Makeup Academy<\/a>.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n[\/vc_column_text][\/toggle][toggle color=&#8221;Default&#8221; heading_tag=&#8221;default&#8221; heading_tag_functionality=&#8221;default&#8221; title=&#8221;What is a skincare consultant called?&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; text_direction=&#8221;default&#8221;]\r\n<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element \">\r\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\r\n\r\nThe title you use will likely depend on your specific job duties and responsibilities.
