O Skin Med Spa’s, Olivia Quido’s money is on a new formula like none other
SECRET PEARL Whitening & Anti-aging Complex
not your mother’s whitening cream.
Quido, credits her love for skincare to her childhood problems with acne and here walks us through her new creation.
” I would use it to buy skincare products like lotion and powder. I was also inspired by the way my Mom would always look neat, pretty and polished. She is my first role model when it comes to personal hygiene and ‘personal beautification.’ When I was growing up, my face was covered with acne. It was almost like there’s not a spot on my face that has no pimple in it. I had facials and pimple extraction done to fix the problem, so it eventually subsided. However, the treatment left some skin discoloration.
My face had yellowish patches and while the treatment solved the acne problem, the “skin imperfections”
were still visible. And that’s when I thought to myself – what if there’s a product or treatment
that doesn’t leave any scar or traces of acne? What if we can have a solution to acne that will
leave us with a flawless face and an even skin tone? These questions got me thinking and I
believe that that was one of the first moments that I felt really determined to someday find a
solution and come up with products that would yield the kind of results that I envisioned.”

FAME US Q&A. with Hollywood Aesthetician O Skin Med Spa’s Olivia Quidomoney
1. Tell us about the Ultimate Glow Collection. How was this developed?
The Ultimate Glow Collection puts all of O Skin’s most popular, most effective head-to-toe
skincare products in one collection for a fabulously flawless and radiantly healthy skin. It
consists of our milk cleanser, toner, Vitamin C 20%, SPF 50 Sunblock, UV Defense and our most
popular, “The Secret Collection” which are: Secret Radiance, Secret Gold, Secret Glow and the
Secret Pearl.

popular, “The Secret Collection” which are: Secret Radiance, Secret Gold, Secret Glow and the
Secret Pearl.
The story of how this was developed started when I noticed that most of our clients suffer from
Melasma pigmentation, discoloration and brown spots… It was quite a revelation to me
because when I was still in esthetics school, everything is theoretical but once I stepped into the
real world (and encounter different clients), I became exposed to all sorts of skin problems. Out
of all these skin conditions, 80% accounts for skin discoloration problem.

because when I was still in esthetics school, everything is theoretical but once I stepped into the
real world (and encounter different clients), I became exposed to all sorts of skin problems. Out
of all these skin conditions, 80% accounts for skin discoloration problem.
To help my clients then, I would actually buy (and sell them) every product in the market (that I
learn about) that could possibly solve the skin discoloration issue, but all of them just don’t
seem to cut it. Either it fixed one part of the issue and or it temporarily removed some
discoloration but not all.

seem to cut it. Either it fixed one part of the issue and or it temporarily removed some
discoloration but not all.
Because of this, I was challenged to look for a solution that would give me the results that I
wanted – a solution that contains all the ingredients needed to remove the discoloration
permanently and not just a part of it. As an esthetician, I took it my due diligence to research
further and not stop until I find this product.
wanted – a solution that contains all the ingredients needed to remove the discoloration
permanently and not just a part of it. As an esthetician, I took it my due diligence to research
further and not stop until I find this product.
One night I prayed and ask the Lord for wisdom. The next day I knew exactly what I needed. The
Lord planted what kind of ingredients (and how much) is needed to build the perfect solution to
skin discoloration. After getting it formulated at pharmaceutical company, I had 10 of my clients
test the prototypes, and all ten of them came back to me asking what’s in the product we gave
them coz it worked wonders on their skin.

Now, our goal is to get this product to other dermatologists and skincare professionals around
the US so we could reach more people and help them.

2. What is the best way to exfoliate and how often should you get a facial?
Facials should be done every month since we shed dead skin cells every 28 days. The key to
having glowing skin is Exfoliation. If you can, I suggest you get a diamond peel facial but if you
don’t have access to facials, you may do a manual scrub. Just make sure it’s oil-free, otherwise
you’d risk having acne problems.

3. Sun Screen is so important, why is this still being overlooked? How can we correct this?
I think it’s because we grew up unaware of the harmful effects of the Sun’s UV rays and we
were not informed of the necessities and benefits of using sunblock or sunscreen products. The
best way to rectify this, is by being well informed. If people are aware, they won’t think twice of
putting on sunscreen when they go outside.

4. Dermaplaning, Microneedling and Microdermabrasion should all find their way into our skin care regimens? Which do you use and think is most effective.
All of them are effective and good for your skin. Each should be part of your skincare regimen
one way or another. However, it also depends on your lifestyle and your goals. Like for me,
I prefer Dermaplaning over Microneedling and Microdermabrasion because I can have
Dermaplaning today and I would look glowing the next day. It’s what I would recommend if you
need to look fresh for an event but you don’t have enough time to get procedures done and
wait for downtime. Microneedling and Microdermabrasion have some downtime. Dermplaning
works for me because it’s a tool you can take home with you and has no downtime.
