Natalie Gage, founder of The Skin School.

Meet our founder, Natalie!

Passionate, dedicated, and equipped with over 13 years of invaluable experience in the ever-evolving skincare industry, Natalie is a true visionary in her field. With an unwavering focus on skincare, she has cultivated an extensive and loyal clientele throughout her career.

While making her mark, Natalie couldn't help but notice a need for advanced skincare training courses in the UK. She discovered that many existing skincare qualifications fell short in teaching the vital aspects of proper skin treatment and understanding various skin conditions. This left students feeling uncertain about how to treat their clients once their training was complete.

Driven by her commitment to excellence, Natalie embarked on a mission to establish an academy that catered to aspiring skincare professionals. Her goal? To equip therapists with the knowledge and skills required to treat all skin types, with utmost care and confidence.

The Skin School Academy launched - empowering students to transform their dreams into flourishing beauty businesses.

Under Natalie's guidance, The Skin School and its tutors ensure that every student who walks through the doors emerges with a deep understanding of proper skincare practices. We believe that by equipping our students with the right education, we not only nurture their professional growth but also foster a culture of excellence in the skincare industry.
