If you’ve ever looked at an ingredient label and wanted to understand every word, you’re in the right place.
I’m Dacota Brooks, a Master Esthetician, founder of Velour Skin Studio, and the ingredient nerd behind The Skin Syllabus. I created this space for people who want to understand their skin and for estheticians who want to keep learning beyond the classroom.
There’s a lot of skincare information out there. My goal is to help you understand the reasoning behind products and treatments through clear explanations, thoughtful research, and practical insights.
Inside the syllabus, you’ll find:
• Skin Fundamentals: skin function, the barrier, and common concerns.
• Ingredient Studies: what ingredients do and why formulation matters.
• Treatment Notes: how treatments work, who they may suit, and what to expect.
• The Esthetician Edit: deeper professional topics and resources for continued learning.
This library will grow as I publish new lessons, explore questions, and share what I’m learning. You don’t have to know everything to start. You just have to be curious.
