Making Memories with Sarah Castillo

Skin Deep is a family business in so many ways. Three sisters (Tina, Nina and Gina) contribute to making the Deep a unique and iconic treasure. We think of our staff as part of the family and all our customers as our community.

Maybe that’s why the smiling faces who greet you feel like old friends. Some of these lovely ladies have been with us for a while – and they genuinely recognize and are happy to see you.

One such example is Sarah Castillo. Sarah joined the team as a Makeup Artist in September of 2012. But she already had a relationship to our staff and products.

As a child she often walked to the Deep with her sister and grandmother. Sarah says seeing all the beautiful displays, cosmetics and gifts is a huge part of her childhood memory of her grandmother – precious time spent together many years before she passed away.

Later Sarah’s esthetician teacher raved about Skin Deep and Sarah began to consider what a great experience it could be to work in an environment she’d been inspired by and loved as a child.

As a Skin Deep Makeup Artist Sarah’s renowned for her guidance surrounding eyebrows. One day she famously shared with a client: “Think of your eyebrows as siblings, not twins. They’re in the same family – but they’re not identical.”

In Sarah’s words: “A huge part of why I became a make-up artist was to be able to use my talent to help others feel good, to feel beautiful in their own skin. I’m lucky enough to work in an environment where I can express myself creatively, and help others achieve a sense of confidence along the way!”

Some of Sarah’s favorite products include Glo Minerals, The Brow Gal and Jane Iredale all of which are available for our Makeup Artistry Services.

Once, as a child, Sarah broke a glass ornament at the Deep so her mother wouldn’t bring her back for an extended period of time as a penalty. Although little Sarah’s heart was broken, she learned a valuable lesson. Careful when we touch!

Now Sarah is a valued and experienced “Team Leader” so she can touch anything she wants. We’re grateful Sarah’s happy memory led her to our family – where she shares her expertise with customers and co-workers alike.
