Changing career paths often starts with a desire: to find more meaning, work with your hands, and pursue a more people-focused profession.

A career change into the wellness industry, and more specifically into facialism, can be a way to fulfil that aspiration. But one question quickly arises: how can you finance your training while choosing the right funding scheme? CPF, France Travail, FIFPL… Funding options do exist, but they depend on your professional status and career plans.

The first step, therefore, is not to look for a training course that can be funded, but to define the career path you want to build.

For a long time, beauty was built around a single promise: correcting the visible signs of ageing. Wrinkles, skin laxity and loss of radiance were seen as phenomena to be erased, giving rise to a multitude of so-called “anti-ageing” approaches.

Today, this vision is evolving. A new philosophy is gradually emerging: longevity. More than just a trend, it invites us to change the way we look at ageing. The goal is no longer to fight against time, but to accompany the face through its natural evolution, helping to preserve its vitality, mobility and harmony over time.

This approach naturally finds its place in facialism. Because before seeking to preserve a face, we must first learn to understand it. This is precisely the role of the morphofacial assessment, a cornerstone of the LB Facialistes Method©.

Changing careers is rarely a sudden decision. More often, it is a desire that gradually takes shape: the desire to pursue a more human, meaningful profession, one that feels more aligned with what you want to share and bring to others. For many people considering a career change, the wellness industry is appealing because it puts touch, listening and human connection back at the heart of the profession.

Facialism, in particular, speaks to a strong aspiration: reconnecting the hands with the living, ever-changing nature of the face, beyond a superficial approach to beauty. Training in facial massage is not simply about learning how to enhance someone's appearance. It is about learning to observe, understand and work with each face with precision, respect and intention. It means developing a true ethic of touch.

Summer is undoubtedly the season when the Gua Sha reveals its full potential. Used chilled, it helps decongest tissues, stimulate circulation, and instantly bring a refreshing sensation to the face. A tool that Delphine, co-founder of LB Facialistes, considers essential in her facialist practice. Today, she shares her expertise and usage tips.

Many facialists have made the same observation: a cosmetic and facialist approach is not always enough to achieve healthy-looking skin. Sometimes, it is necessary to identify internal imbalances and address them in order to support the skin from both the inside and the outside, while helping preserve its long-term health and vitality.
