MEET THE FOUNDER
I would like to welcome you all to Desert Skin Glow. My name is Mary Rodriguez, the owner of DSG, located here in La Quinta, CA. I have been a licensed esthetician since May 2022. However, my passion for esthetics has been with me since my teenage years. Although life led me down a different career path, at age 37, I found my way back to what I love.
During my teenage years I started experiencing acne issues. It was devastating because I was always shy and timid, which only made me more insecure. There was a point where my face was severely inflamed. Like many parents, my mom took me to Walmart to get acne products, but my acne continued to worsen. I struggled with acne for many years, and even now, I still have occasional breakouts. However, I now possess knowledge that I and my mom didn't have back then, allowing me to manage my breakouts more effectively. I remember being teased as a kid, so I empathize with my teenage clients and understand their frustration. Acne is very challenging to deal with, but it's not impossible.
At this stage in my life, I still face skin issues, but I can confidently say that my skin is the healthiest it has ever been. I feel comfortable in my own skin. Although skincare can be costly, I realized that if I wanted healthy skin, I needed to prioritize it. This is the same experience I want all my clients to have when they leave my door. I want you to feel great about your skin. My goal is to help you effect positive changes and educate you on skincare.
My passion for skincare has grown even stronger now. I believe in aging gracefully and embracing the beauty of our fine lines. My ultimate aim is to make you feel incredibly comfortable in your own skin. At Desert Skin Glow, we're dedicated to turning that goal into a reality.
