Hi, I’m Arlene Mortley, a licensed aesthetician and founder of Arlene Antoinette Skincare located in Brooklyn, NY. I offer high-quality, result-oriented custom skincare treatments and the Arlene Antoinette signature line of medical-grade skincare products.
Skincare has been a lifelong passion of mine. My love of skincare began as a young girl, watching my mom each night as she sat on a stool at her dressing table to put her special cream on her face. I couldn’t wait until I was grown up and could do the same. Born and raised in St. Andrew, a part of the Blue Mountains of Jamaica, in the heart of coffee country, the women in my family have always emphasized the importance of healthy skin.
Today, I hold a diploma in Aesthetics from The Christine Valmy International School and am a licensed aesthetician, as well as a certified medical aesthetician. My expertise includes advanced training in skin biology, chemical peels, lasers, microneedling, and various anti-aging modalities and technologies. While I treat all skin types and tones, my early training revealed a significant gap in addressing the needs of skin of color, especially when it involves chemical peels and other types of skin resurfacing treatments. This realization inspired me to actively seek specialized knowledge to better cater to this demographic. Skincare treatments for skin of color are more complex, requiring tailored approaches. I am passionate about educating and serving this often-overlooked segment of the skincare industry, as I believe in the importance of personalized solutions for optimal results.
