Second Annual Red Carpet Event

On Tuesday September 24, 2013 A E Skin held its second annual Red Carpet Event in the Encino office. The event was a tremendous success. We rolled out the red carpet and many people had opportunities to take Hollywood-style professional pictures. Promotions were offered on all products and services and over 30 people attended to take advantage of the specials. The focus was on the Red Carpet Peel, a chemical peel that takes minutes and leads to facial rejuvenation in one week. The most popular product again was the Brightening Cream, the A E Skin signature product that improves fine lines, wrinkles, and discolorations. Everyone in attendance received a gift bag as well as a prize. Support was kindly provided by Merz Aesthetics, makers of Xeomin, Allergan, makers of Juvederm, and Elta MD skin care, makers of our most popular sunscreen: UV Clear. We look forward to our next event, the third annual Holiday Party in December.
