Inspiring Conversations with Jess Iturzaeta of Simply Jess Skincare

Today we’d like to introduce you to Jess Iturzaeta.

Hi Jess, can you start by introducing yourself? We’d love to learn more about how you got to where you are today?
I started working in the skincare industry while I was in college and I loved it so much I decided to get my esthetician’s license and pivot. I worked in the treatment room for years and also became a national trainer for brands such as Kate Somerville Skincare and Kerstin Florian Skincare. After becoming a mom, I became really mindful of the ingredients I was putting on my skin due to health issues in my family. I wanted to keep it clean but didn’t love the options in the beauty/skincare product space. After working for other skincare brands for so many years, I wanted to put my time and energy into creating something I truly believed in. I also wanted to be in charge of my own time as a new mom and have the power to create my schedule. I felt compelled to start my own brand and use my background as an esthetician and trainer to help clients change their skin.

I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle free, but so far would you say the journey have been a fairly smooth road?
Finding a balance between family and starting a business has always been my biggest struggle. But overall, it has been pretty smooth, I find such joy in creating something from scratch and still being able to change my clients skin.

Thanks – so what else should our readers know about Simply Jess Skincare?

Their concerns and skin goals have paved the way for each and every product I have created.

I am most proud of how effective the products are. I have high standards for what skincare products need to accomplish and the fact we can see such amazing results and keep the line all-natural makes me so happy! Because of my esthetician and training background, I am able to give my clients personalized help with their skin. We have many videos to help them better understand their skin and how to use their products.

Can you talk to us about how you think about risk?
Risk taking is part of starting a business. My biggest risks involve investing money into something and not knowing if it will be the right decision. I feel like making a decision and moving forward with whatever the outcome is helps with my mindset. I look at it more like either way I will have learned something and that is always a win.
