About Skin Care Pro Group

Every shop has a story and this is mine, one woman’s dream that evolved to be about Skin Care Pro Group

I came into the world of professional makeup rather late into the stages of my life, and even later into professional skin care.  It all begun because I was bored and as an empty-nester, I just wanted to do something fun.  I wanted to do something that I liked, something that allows me to stay connected to people, and something that was a new challenge in terms of skills and knowledge.

I will admit that I seriously underestimated this whole thing and it turned out to be way bigger of a challenge than I bargained for.  But while I whined about how hard this was, I simply could not stop wanting to learn more.  I was shocked and often disgusted to finally know why the products that I spent thousands over the years did little more than moisturize my face.

On the way to my first day of work at my part-time job as a business counselor at the Maryland Women’s Business Center I drove into and through Market Street in Frederick, Maryland and I had not been there in over 10 years.  I remember just feeling like I loved the place, and I noticed some main street places for rent and then found myself thinking how fun it would be to move my makeup studio from Montgomery County to Frederick.

Over the past 2 years, I lost track of how many times I went out for lunch and walked around downtown just loving everything I saw: the small, custom shops with unique stuff, the feeling that this was a place where small business can grow and people get to set up their dreams.

It took me a while, and many clarity time-outs to realize that on that first drive in I begun to move the studio here.  So here I am.

Makeup Artist Pro Group and Skin Care Pro Group are about me, sharing with the community the real Maria, living one of my purposes in life:  to contribute to all people that come into my world with a spirit of abundancy, creativity, acceptance, and positive energy.  The studio is not going to be in any way the traditional “day spa” experience simply because I don’t fit into that mold.  It is as eclectic as life itself.  It is as perfectly imperfect as me and the rest of us.

Come by and see for yourself if my style works for you or not.  Either way, I am going to be glad you came.
