Classic sign that your skin is dry is when your skin feels tight and dry right after washing.

You face dries down by mid day and you may experience some flaking and dull looking skin.

Your pores are typically small but you can have a little shine or oil in the T-zone (forehead, nose and chin) area.

Skin does better in warmer/humid climates.

Normal skin doesn’t feel too oily or too dry, it feels normal after cleansing.

Your skin always feels oily by midday and your pores are larger in the T-zone (forehead, nose and chin), including the upper cheek area.

PROTOCOL PATHWAY
Your Routine Starts With This Shopping List.
At Beauty JM, transparency isn’t just a value—it’s a lived experience.
Before launching Beauty JM, I spent over a decade working as a police officer. But long before that, skincare was already a part of who I was. I became a certified Aesthetician in my early 20s, working in spas, building my own business, and even educating others at tradeshows across the country.
Just as I was preparing to open a spa of my own, I followed a long-held dream to serve my community as a police officer—a path that taught me more about people, pressure, and perspective than any classroom ever could.
But I never let go of my passion for skincare. In fact, it was the thing that kept me grounded through it all.

Then let’s give you a plan to follow. Explore my 90-day protocols below, starting with what you’re noticing in your skin and what you’d like help with.
Melasma, dark spots, or stubborn hyperpigmentation? Let’s give you a specific plan to follow—not another brightening serum to figure out on your own.
Choose between my Cimel and MeLine protocols. One package includes your complete 90-day routine, with moisturizer and a weekly exfoliant. The other includes an eye product for stubborn pigmentation around the eyes.
Both packages are suitable for all skin types, including skin of colour, except highly reactive or highly sensitive skin.
You’ve been consistent with your skincare, but lately? You’re noticing lines around your nose and mouth, and wondering when your jawline started looking a little less…snatched.
If that sounds familiar, this is the protocol to explore.
The AnteAGE Pro Serum and Accelerator duo brings growth factors and cytokines into a streamlined routine. My protocol walks you through using the duo alongside moisturizer, SPF, and a weekly exfoliant, so you have a clear plan without a long lineup of products to figure out.
Feeling like time isn’t just marching on—it’s marching across your face? If changes in firmness and facial contours are becoming more noticeable, this is the protocol to explore.
AnteAGE MD is the duo I currently use. My 90-day protocol walks you through the Serum and Accelerator pairing, with moisturizer, SPF, and a weekly exfoliant to round out the routine. A clear plan, without making skincare your full-time job.
Is it a facelift? Nope. But if you’re looking for a more advanced skincare routine, I’ll show you where to start and how to follow through.
