"People spend more money on their shoes than they do taking care of their skin. And no matter what, people are going to look at your face first before they look at your shoes," Says Melanie Vasseur, owner of Vasseur Skin Clinic Salon And Spa.

According to her clients Melanie is the guru of skincare. She developed her first line of skincare products in 1987 and has had a cult following ever since. Her clients SEE RESULTS - and it keeps them coming back.

Melanie is passionate about skincare. She struggled with problem skin as a young girl and has made it her life long goal to help others. It, all about getting back the skin you were born with and according to Melanie, this is possible. Skin, being the largest living organ in the body, can be healthy or unhealthy. Because skin cells constantly turn over, with the right products and training, you can regenerate the skin and get a healthy, glowing, smoother and more youthful appearance.

Melanie takes great pride in the integrity of her products which are vitamin-based natural ingredients locally prepared in small batches that allows the products to contain high doses of vitamins without the added chemical fillers or oils that can irritate skin.

"My products are medical grade, not what you find over-the-counter," she says. She developed her first line of products for real people who suffered from acne, rosacea, sun damage and problem skin. She has since expanded her skincare line into what she calls the high-tech designer formulas. Only a few companies world-wide use the special ingredients she uses in her designer line.

Her products are designed to slow the aging process and leave skin toned and smooth. Her Eye Q Gel, containing GABA, a topical BOTOX, combats wrinkles and puffiness around the eyes. Face Firm, with idebenone, one of the most exciting new skincare ingredients, offers mega antioxidant formulas to protect and define. Her Hot Lips lip plumper is a client favorite. Melanie continually develops new products as a direct result of her client request or needs.
