Skincare routines are essential to healthy, youthful skin. There's an overwhelming supply of lotions, potions, serums, spray and creams promising us a healthy glow. But, how do we get it right? Autumn Breen, a licensed esthetician in the Chicago area, shares with us her top skincare routines for the morning and evening times. We dive into products, ingredients and which toxins to stay clear of. She breaks down the plethora of skincare treatments starting with chemical peels, microneedling, lasers, light therapy and injectibles. Who’s a candidate for which treatment? Autumn explains the ins and outs of each treatment, shining a light on the best options for different skin issues and goals. Nutrition is a huge component of supporting healthy skin and we both share our top choices for fighting off free radicals and building more collagen in aging skin.

Autumn Breen began her career working as a Medical Assistant in Internal Medicine. Her passion for skincare led her to pursue a career in Esthetics. She studied esthetics at Naperville Skin Institute in 2009 and is a Licensed Esthetician. She has built upon her education in esthetics by working with Dermatologists, Plastic Surgeons, and in Medical Spas. She extended her knowledge by taking advanced courses in product knowledge and treatments, and provides a full array of medical esthetic treatments such as chemical peels, dermaplaning, micro-needling, and laser and light skincare treatments.
