About

Hi, I'm Rachael Pontillo. Thanks for visiting! 

I am a mom, licensed aesthetician, and holistic health and wellness coach, and writer/editor. My mission is to create and share educational information about how to have beautiful skin, a healthy body, and a happy and fulfilling life from the inside out, as well as from the outside in.

Here at Holistically Haute™, you will find articles, recipes, product and service recommendations, and many tips about skincare and makeup; health and nutrition, stress management and fitness, how to live a more natural, organic, and sustainable life; and how to achieve balance in all areas of life.

My other work:

In addition to Holistically Haute™, I also write for Organic Lifestyle Magazine, Technorati,  Blogcritics.org , and am a freelance aesthetics and health care writer/editor.  My work has been featured on the Aesthetics Professional networking site, as well as in the pages of Dermascope Magazine, and various nursing and allied healthcare journals published by Wolters Kluwer Health/Lippincott, Williams, and Wilkins. 

I am honored to be the recipient of the Institute for Integrative Nutrition's Health Leadership Award, and am also included in this year's edition of the Cambridge Who's Who Registry of Executives, Professionals, and Entrepreneurs.

In addition to holistic skincare and health coaching, I also hold several other health and wellness-related certifications including Reiki (level II), Wull Stone Therapy, detoxification, and Ayurveda. I also love makeup, and have worked as a freelance makeup artist for more than 15 years. I am also an independent sales consultant for Juice Plus+^® and Tower Garden®, as well as for dōTERRA® (my favorite essential oils EVER!).

As a holistic aesthetician and health coach I work with clients one-on-one and in groups all over the United States and in Canada; and also teach classes and workshops.

I am very excited to write for you.  I love getting comments on my posts, so please don't be shy.  I want to hear what you have to say!  Thank you for reading, and I hope you enjoy.
