Meet Mel and Emily, two esthi besties who created and co-founded their own successful skincare studio called, The Skyn Distillery, during a Pandemic. Now grab a cocktail and join them in, "The Lounge" to hear everything skin, business and all the in-betwe
The Lounge by The Skyn Distillery
The Lounge by The Skyn Distillery podcast is, without a doubt, my absolute favorite podcast right now. From the moment I discovered it, I was instantly hooked and couldn't get enough of Emily and Mel's dynamic and engaging content. This podcast has quickly become a staple in my life, providing me with endless entertainment, education, and inspiration.
One of the best aspects of The Lounge is the perfect balance that Emily and Mel strike between being informative and entertaining. Unlike many other podcasts in the skincare and beauty industry which can be dry and to the point, The Lounge brings a refreshing combination of education and humor. Emily and Mel have an incredible ability to convey complex skincare concepts in an approachable manner while injecting their own witty banter into each episode. Whether I'm starting my day or winding down on my commute home from work, listening to The Lounge never fails to put a smile on my face.
Another standout feature of this podcast is the impeccable drink reviews that Emily and Mel provide. As they discuss various skincare treatments and topics, they never fail to include their thoughts on different beverages they're enjoying during each episode. It adds an extra layer of fun to the podcast and makes me feel like I'm having a casual conversation with friends rather than just passively consuming information. Their drink recommendations have even inspired me to try new concoctions myself!
However, despite its numerous merits, one potential downside of The Lounge is that it leaves me longing for more Q&A episodes. While the regular episodes are packed with valuable insights and interesting discussions, there's something particularly special about hearing directly from Emily and Mel as they answer listener questions. These Q&A episodes not only provide practical advice but also create a sense of connection between the hosts and their audience. I would love to see more of these episodes in the future.
In conclusion, The Lounge by The Skyn Distillery is an exceptional podcast that combines fun, informative content with genuine camaraderie between the hosts. Emily and Mel's expertise, creativity, and inspiring stories make this podcast a must-listen for anyone interested in skincare and beauty. Whether you're a skincare enthusiast or aspiring esthetician like myself, The Lounge is sure to captivate and inspire you with its unique blend of education, humor, and relatability.

Today we are talking all about the HALT method. The HALT method is an acronym that you can use to keep from heading into what is known as the emotional danger zone. HALT stands for hunger, anger, lonely, tired, and can occasionally have an O in there, which stands for overwhelmed. When we are feeling emotionally off balance, it's important to stop and consider what steps we need to take to regulate our emotions. Here are a few simple steps you can follow: Step 1: Awareness - be in tune with yourself and how you are feeling. Step 2: Scan yourself in the HALT method - What are you missing that might make you feel off? Step 3: Figure out your needs - What do you need to adjust to have your needs met? Step 4: Set up a routine - Maybe that includes exercising, meal prepping, boundaries, communication, etc. DRINK: Chandon's Garden Spritz CONNECT WITH US: Please share your thoughts on this episode with me in IG Stories / DM me, I would love to hear from you.
