Holiday Revenue Reset for Estheticians

Holiday Revenue Reset for Estheticians

Posted by Sarah Kinsler-Holloway on

The holidays are the perfect time to refresh your business energy, reconnect with your clients, and create meaningful experiences that feel both intentional and profitable. At Kin, we believe the most powerful growth strategies are the simplest ones — the kind that blend care, education + of course, a touch of luxury.

Here are five easy ways to boost your revenue and client loyalty through the season, using treatments and retail strategies that feel aligned with the spirit of giving.

 

Seasonal Lip Renewal — Complimentary with Any Facial

A small gesture can make a big impact. This season, offer a complimentary Lip Hydration Treatment with any facial. It’s a thoughtful way to care for your clients during the dry winter months — and it costs you less than five dollars in backbar product.

Position it as a “Seasonal Lip Renewal” and highlight how it helps protect lips during the colder seasons. Use Kin’s Lip Hydration Protocol (you’ll find it in the Kin Academy), and let this simple add-on elevate the entire facial experience. The perceived value? Around $25–$40 — and a perfect reason for clients to rebook before the new year.

 

Enzyme + Oil Cleanser Ritual 

Teach your clients the beauty of cleansing — using an enzyme cleanser and oil cleanser together for the ultimate gentle exfoliating experience. It’s ideal for dry, congested, or makeup-heavy skin, especially during the holiday season.

Encourage them to buy both and receive 25% off. This simple retail promotion introduces clients to a ritual they’ll want to continue long after the holidays are over. For you, it means roughly $21.50 in profit while reinforcing education and trust.

Want to take it further? Create a quick 15-second demo reel for social or set up a QR code in your treatment room to show the ritual in action.

 

The Ritual Reset — Out with the Old, In with the New

We’ve all seen it: clients holding onto half-empty or expired products that no longer serve their skin. Help them clear the clutter and start fresh with The Ritual Reset.

Invite clients to bring in any old or expired skincare and receive 25% off a new skincare routine. It’s an easy way to transition into a results-driven regimen — and a great conversation starter around product fatigue and the importance of consistency.

To make it effortless, offer ready-to-go bundles tailored to different skin concerns, like:


It's never just about selling — it’s about reconnecting with your purpose, elevating your client experience, and creating value that lasts beyond the holidays. Each of these ideas invites you to build deeper trust, inspire better routines, and generate more consistent revenue — all while staying true to the spirit of care.

 

At Kin, we believe that when you focus on intention over promotion, your business naturally grows.
