Estheticians

LESLIE M. PALMIERI
OWNER / ESTHETICIAN
Leslie Palmieri joined Sacred Willow Spa in January 2013 after graduating Summa Cum Laude in December 2012 from an intense esthetician program study at MillerMotte College-Wilmington. Her studies included bacteriology, sanitation, disinfections, skin structure, diseases and disorders, facials, aromatherapy, body treatments, microbrasions, waxing, and more. She thoroughly enjoys all aspects of the services she offers to her clients: analysis, diagnosis, hands on experience and product recommendation. Leslie’s knowledge and desire to provide clientele with the best skin care consultations and services is enhanced through the International Dermal Institute hands-on training courses and continuing education opportunities. She is also taking Reiki and Reflexology courses to broaden her skills to benefit her clients who are interested in these service enhancements.

RITA BERARDO
ESTHETICIAN
Rita and her family came to Calabash from the Northeast region of the country 10 years ago and are happy to call Brunswick County “home”. When Rita first arrived in Calabash, she began a search to find a spa that provided massage and skin therapy services, but to her dismay, she found she had to travel to Myrtle Beach or Wilmington to indulge in those services. This prompted her to begin a study in esthetics in 2008 and found a school that incorporated the Dermalogica product line, having used their products herself for over 10 years. Now, a decade later, Rita calls Sacred Willow Spa her tome to provide esthetic services and has continued to use Dermalogica products for over 20 years because she truly believes in the results they deliver while being cost effective at the same time. Rita loves to educate clients about their skin health and how they can incorporate Dermalogica products into their at home skin care regimen of optimal results.

Jenny Terracciano

Jenny began her journey as an Esthetician in 2016 with Sacred Willow Spa and has been dedicated to helping clients achieve healthy, radiant skin ever since. Over the years, she has continued to expand her knowledge and training in a variety of advanced skincare modalities including Nano Infusion, Microneedling, and Dermaplaning.
She has a strong passion for understanding the science behind skincare ingredients, particularly within the Dermalogica line, and how they benefit different skin types and concerns. Educating her clients about proper skincare routines and the importance of regular facials is an essential part of her approach.
