THIS IS YOU...
✨ You know that truly helping people get beautiful skin is a journey of cellular-level health. You have to go deep.
✨ You understand that food is medicine and that plants are medicine so it makes sense to you that a diet centred on plants would be the most therapeutic. You're all about the plants
✨ You feel drawn to both science and the holistic approach. You walk with a foot in both worlds and you understand that the magic happens where both of those things meet in the world: the logic and evidence of science + the seemingly miraculous healing and rejuvenation that can occur when powerful plants are eaten.
✨ You have a passion for health food and want to learn to formulate beautifying, rejuvenating and skin-healthifying foods and recipes. Because without the 'practical magic' of food, the nutrition science is just a useless bunch of fancy words. You want to give your clients the actual tools of transformation (in the most delicious way possible)

Our students love us 💖
This course helps me understand what the skin really needs, what is a beautiful skin, what is harmful to the skin that causes aging skin. Everything I need is evident in Star's courses.
TRUC Trinh
Loved the layout of the course materials, felt seamless working through the content.
Star is a pro, excellent at explaining things which could be otherwise complicated but her delivery and down to earth approach make learning this enjoyable.
Michelle Tyson
I learned a lot actually. I am trailing a psoriasis oil and cream using different oils and essential oils so for me to learn about the Cathelicidins are regulated by D3 explains why the sun helps so many people with skin issues

Holistic Beauty Medicine™ Diploma
QUICK RECAP OF ALL 10 COURSES INCLUDED WITH THIS DIPLOMA
Skin nutrition science + functional beauty foods = holistic beauty medicine: the plant-based alchemy of skin-health
Star Khechara
Skincare formulator and beauty author turned skin-nutrition researcher, Star distilled her 20+ years of skin-health knowledge into the world’s first international accredited school to educate estheticians, dermatologists and allied skin-health practitioners in the emerging science of skin-nutrition, integrative skin health and nutridermatology®
During my work as a skincare formulator I noticed that so many cosmetic ingredients were foods or food extracts, I realised that the power to beautify, treat and rejuvenate the skin was in diet, nutrition and food...not skincare products
Patrick Jones - Course author
More praise from our students 💖
This course is easy to follow, but rich in content. I learned so much about what is in different foods and how they affect the skin. The lessons are in words I easily understand and can translate to truly using in my practice
Melissa Berry
The course was very well thought through and the material provided was easy to understand and remember. The way Star put it together was very engaging and fun.
Mel Driver
