Unique Lewis

Unique is a Licensed Esthetician who is passionate about helping her clients to achieve their healthiest glow. She has extensive experience working with skin of all ages, ethnicities and backgrounds. She specializes in corrective treatments for those concerned with acne, hyperpigmentation, and signs of aging by creating a comprehensive treatment plan, along with direction on how to maintain results at home. She is enthusiastic about treating her clients from a holistic point of view, making suggestions for lifestyle changes that will not only lead to an improvement in the way their skin looks and feels, but how they look and feel overall as well.

Although Unique has enjoyed experimenting with a bevy of facial products as a child, she officially began her career in skincare in 2019 by formulating her own plant-based soap bars. To gain better insight on how to properly care for the skin, she enrolled in esthetics school and instantly fell in love with connecting with her clients while helping them to achieve their best skin yet. In 2021 Unique completed Rizzieri’s Medical Aesthetics Program where she was trained in advanced skincare treatments such as micro-needling, dermaplaning, medical grade chemical peels and more.

Outside of VRB, Unique enjoys spending time in nature, formulating natural skincare products and learning about new skincare devices and treatments.
