Esthetician Website Makeover: 1000% Sales Boost
When Cara, the founder of
We Love Acne, first came to us, she was ready for a major change. She was approaching her 5 year business anniversary with a fresh new brand identity and a big goal: to go almost completely virtual. But she felt held back by the limitations of Squarespace. Her old site lacked the functionality, speed, and strategy needed to support the next phase of her growth.
We helped her shift from Squarespace to Shopify with a completely custom esthetician website design that showcased her expertise, built trust with new visitors, and made shopping effortless. From navigation to product education, every detail was designed with the modern skincare shopper in mind.

ButtonA Strategic Overhaul for Virtual Success
We kicked off her Shopify rebuild just in time for her anniversary launch on

Our focus? Building a clean, high performing e-commerce site that not only looked good, but functioned like a well oiled machine.

- Skincare Quiz to guide conversions through personalized recommendations
- Rewards Program to drive customer loyalty
- Product reviews to gain
- Password-protected collection for exclusive content
- Product Reviews Integration, social proof built right into the site with verified product reviews

- Free sample add-on to increase AOV and customer satisfaction
- Strategic icons like “Same-Day Shipping” and “Cara Approved” to boost credibility and trust
- Speed optimization: Mobile performance jumped from 62 → 98, Desktop from 76 → 81
In December, we helped her take it even further with a megamenu for easier browsing and added systems that improved conversions.
