Expanded discussion on safety and sanitation topics reflects changes made in OSHA rulings and decontamination and infection control.

Milady’s Standard Fundamentals for Estheticians is the essential textbook for basic esthetics training.

Review: Excellent Teaching Methods: Milady's Standard: Fundamentals for Estheticians - Books that are organized based on learning research that makes learning easy to follow without lose end are hard to find...and some that delve into that aspect of education might over do it. They bring it down to the basics before you even start reading so that you are able to understand the objectives and goals and vocabulary before beginning each chapter and do self checks kinda like math. Great method. However, I do still believe there is an audience that would like more complex....so I think you still have a large market out there of folks whose learning needs have not been met based on the rigours of market. GREAT and EXCELLENT job. The language is clear and modern and easy to read. The margins are large enough on the sides so that you can bullet to memorize or the authors should be highlighting the to know fundamentals and phrases. Otherwise it's a lot of reading and when you read once...you may not have the time as busy as we are to read again...I would definitely create a separate book as an Outline or skeleton...which is another format or a book with all kinds of graphics for comparisons etc as another means of learning and documenting information and remember and a quick reference...and it would go excellently or can be included with the workbook. Anything to improve memory and recall and issue for anyone in education. The greatest concern has always been matching up the product with the client and client-therapist compatibility...just like a doctor patient compatibility....so not sure this book is safe at all for the market...and in general the fitness of service has more to do with your clients which should be your immediate family members..thats where the tradition lies...outside those parameters and concept of safety...there is no tradition and we're over zealot.
Review: Excellent information for anyone interested in skin care and spa treatments. - As the most widely used textbook for estheticians in the world, this text provides comprehensive information on skin care science, professional esthetic procedures, and various spa treatments. Although I am not an esthetician student, I was formerly a pre-med student and was delighted to find that the material presented in Dr. Joel Gerson's book was interesting, clearly written, and founded on solid, scientific principles. The chapters were very easy to follow and included many full-color diagrams that clearly portrayed the relevant details discussed in the text. After reading one to two chapters a day, my notes soon contained a complete, personalized skin care regimen that I could not have otherwise afforded on my budget. Now I possess a greater understanding of how to properly sterilize and disinfect my equipment and home, basic cosmetic chemistry, skin physiology, and the scientific principles behind various skin care equipment and procedures used by estheticians (which will help me to choose the best services available at the spa). Thank you Milady!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good for Estheticians & Makeup Artist
*by P***A on July 14, 2015*

I used this book to study before I took my State license test. This book has been very useful and I refer back to it often when I need to look at a skin issue. Milady's is very detailed and has a large vocabulary. If you are a makeup artist you should also buy this book and study the skin. Your clients would be impressed that you understand the skin so well.
