Every Skincare by Alana client receives expert assistance before making a purchase, or customers can view exclusive videos on each product to learn more about usage, application and expected results. "I put every product I include in my store through the ringer – each one is tried, evaluated and then judged on its effectiveness, value and unique properties," added Mitchell. "Of course there are always unique needs for every individual. We encourage everyone who visits my online store to speak directly with a skincare expert who I have trained so they can get a personalized consultation before they choose what is right for them."
