KESSANDRA BENJAMIN, AP, LE
Advanced Practice Esthetician + Brow Artist | The Skin Narrative
Kessandra has over 10 years experience in the beauty industry helping people feel
more radiant from the inside out. Her start in retail sales inspired her to go to school
for esthetics and after her graduation in 2018, she has always stayed passionate about
the skin and caring for her clients.
After working her way up within the industry, she managed a popular facial bar
throughout her pregnancy and first year of motherhood. This experience helped her
grow into the business owner she is today, but left her wanting to be able to give her
clients more. This was the push she needed to finally start her own business after 6
years of being an esthetician.
Kess opened The Skin Narrative in September 2023 and is committed to giving her
clients the best experience every time. She has her Acne Specialist Certification
through Face Reality, an award-winning acne product line and is fervently passionate
about healing acne. She carries Face Reality, Glymed, along with holistic lines like One
Love Organics and Botnia. Each facial is customized to every individual’s needs and
tailored to her clients’ lifestyles and budgets. Kess also has over 7 years experience
with brow shaping and lash lifts allowing her to be your go to for brow waxing,
lamination, and tinting.
Outside of work she loves to cuddle her two cats and have her daily dance parties with
her son and husband. She loves writing, reading, interior design, doing deep-dives into
psychology topics, coffee dates, and thrift shopping.
As someone who is neurodivergent, Kess is deeply passionate about creating a sensory
friendly and safe experience for her clients and empowering them to appreciate their
bodies and brains for the beautifully complex systems they are. Kess is passionate
about mental health and the mind-body-skin connection. If you are looking for a
therapeutic experience and holistic approach to healing your skin, you’re in the right
place.
