Hi Beauties!

I wanted to take a minute to introduce myself. My name is Holly and I am the owner of Holly Rose Skincare, a skincare studio located in Springfield, Illinois. I am a bubbly, outgoing 30-something with a passion for all things beauty!

I graduated from USCA as an esthetician in 2003 and started working at a local salon in 2004 where I spent the next 14 years. During that time, I continued to learn and expand my knowledge on the skincare industry. I also had the opportunity to teach a number of esthetician classes to students at the local cosmetology school which I thoroughly enjoyed.

I knew my long term goal was always to open my own studio one day and be my own boss. I have always been very goal-oriented and business-minded and as my clientele and skill set grew over the years, my desire to build my own business did too. I wanted to create a beauty haven here in my hometown where luxury meets affordability and where I could bring my love for skincare and cosmetics to life.

In July 2017, I finally took the leap and opened the doors to Holly Rose Skincare! I was flooded with emotions and skepticism as I stepped out on my own, but I am so very thankful that I believed in myself enough to take that leap. My clients were incredibly supportive and my business began flourishing beyond my wildest dreams and expectations. I was consistently booked and busy and I welcomed so many new faces as well! 

At the beginning of Summer 2021, I finally launched my very own cosmetics brand, Holly Rose Cosmetics. As any business owner would be, I was incredibly nervous for my first product launch. However, my clients absolutely blew me away and I was sold out of everything within just a few days! I was so grateful for the love, support and positive feedback and it really gave me the reassurance I needed to know that I am on the right path with my latest business venture. I am so excited to continue bringing new makeup products to the Holly Rose Cosmetics lineup!

To say I am beyond grateful to get to do what I love every day is an understatement. I am continuously researching, daydreaming and envisioning ideas of ways I can expand Holly Rose Skincare. The wheels are constantly turning in my mind of what new products and services I can offer and how I can provide my clients with a top tier experience. Be on the lookout for many more new product and service launches to come!

Aside from my business, my family and friends are very big priorities in my life. I married my long-time sweetheart, Bryant, in November 2016 and became a first-time mom in August 2019 to the sweetest little boy, Bryson. I am also a bonus mom to my wonderful stepson, BJ. When I’m not in my studio or spending time with friends and family, you can most likely catch me reading, listening to podcasts or music (fun fact: I LOVE to sing) and I have recently taken up meditation which I am really enjoying as well.

If you are a long-term client, thank you SO much for your continued support over the years and if you’re new here, I am so very excited to welcome you!

XO, Holly Rose
