We are so excited to introduce our Peach Skincare Academy Mentorship Program.
Peach & Lily was founded with a single mission: to help you transform your skin. Our founder, Alicia Yoon, is a celebrity esthetician and a Korean beauty expert. She struggled her whole life with severe eczema and can personally attest to the power and joy of learning to care for her skin. Through careful study, extensive training in Korea and NYC, and hands-on experience over the last 20 years, Alicia was able to truly transform the look and feel of her skin - and lead so many others on this same journey.
We are an esthetician-led brand and we believe that estheticians serve a vital role in the skincare industry. Estheticians who have developed deep expertise in skin structure and function, products and ingredients, and specialized skincare techniques can help teach and empower our community to achieve their best skin yet.

We also believe that, as a beauty brand, we have a responsibility to help create a more beautiful, just, and equitable world. In the skincare industry, our Black community is underrepresented. As part of our ongoing commitment to uplifting our Black community, we are launching this mentorship program first for our Black community of estheticians and esthetics students. We will be expanding this program in the future to include others in our community as well.
