Websites for Estheticians: What Your Esthetician Website Needs to Convert Clients and Sell More Online
When it comes to growing a beauty business, websites for estheticians
play one of the biggest roles in booking more clients, selling more skincare, and creating a brand that feels elevated and trustworthy.
But here’s the problem most estheticians face: they either don’t have a website at all… or the website they do have is confusing, outdated, or not built to convert.
At Dope Magic Co., we specialize in designing
high-converting Shopify websites for estheticians, and we’ve seen the same patterns over and over: DIY websites that don’t convert, confusing booking flows, broken online stores, and missed opportunities to sell retail.
This guide will walk you through exactly what esthetician websites need, the mistakes holding most estheticians back, how your website impacts bookings and retail, real examples of esthetician websites built correctly, and why Shopify is the strongest platform for the beauty industry.
Why Websites for Estheticians Are So Important
Today’s beauty clients don’t book blindly. Before scheduling with you, they:
- look at your services
- compare prices
- read reviews
- check availability
- skim your online shop
- scroll your homepage to understand your vibe
- decide whether they trust you with their skin
Your website is your first impression and for many clients, it’s the reason they either book immediately or click away.
An effective esthetician website:
- increases client trust
- attracts higher quality bookings
- reduces repetitive questions
- sells products 24/7
- builds a premium, elevated brand
- guides clients exactly where they need to go
The 3 Most Common Website Struggles Estheticians Face
1. DIY Websites That Don’t Convert
Most estheticians start with a template or booking-app “website,” but DIY setups usually lead to:
- unclear navigation
- weak or missing copy
- no SEO strategy
- inconsistent branding
- a messy mobile experience
Your website should be your #1 sales tool not something you hope no one looks too closely at.
2. No Online Store (or a Store That’s Hard to Shop)
Selling skincare is one of the fastest ways to grow, yet many estheticians have:
- no online shop at all
- poorly organized product pages
- confusing product navigation
- no ingredient info or education
A clean, strategic e-commerce setup = more retail sales without extra effort.
3. Platforms That Can’t Grow With You
Squarespace, Wix, or booking-app sites are going to struggle to meet your needs when you want:
- advanced e-commerce
- better SEO
- custom design
- professional branding
- mobile optimization
This is why we rebuild most cluttered or outdated sites on Shopify: the most powerful platform for estheticians who want long-term growth.
What Every Esthetician Website Must Have to Convert
1. A Clean, Strategic Homepage
Your homepage must:
- clearly communicate what you offer
- build trust instantly
- guide clients where to go
- showcase your top services
- feature strong CTA buttons
2. A Professional E-Commerce Setup
An effective esthetician shop includes:
- clear product categories
- product reviews
- subscription options
- related products
- ingredient breakdowns
- routine recommendations
- expert notes
3. SEO-Optimized Copy
Your website needs:
- keyword-rich headers
- optimized service descriptions
- proper metadata
- alt text
- internal linking
SEO helps clients find you on autopilot.
4.
Mobile-First Design
Most esthetician clients browse on their phones. Your website must feel fast, scrollable, and easy to book from.
5.
Strong CTA Buttons
Clear navigation isn’t pushy, it’s supportive. Guide your clients to:
- book an appointment
- shop products
- learn more about services
- contact you
Real Examples of Effective Esthetician Websites
Here are a few websites built by Dope Magic Co, each one created with beauty industry expertise, strategic design, and Shopify best practices:
Belleame Skin
When Jillian came to us, she already had a beautiful Showit website for her Gilbert, Arizona based esthetician business but it couldn’t sell her products or support social selling. She wrote, “I have a website, but it was not built including my products to sell or social media.” She had tried working with another designer before, felt overwhelmed by the tech, and didn’t have the time or knowledge to set up e-commerce on her own.
She needed more than a pretty website. She needed a site that could actually generate revenue.
We rebuilt her entire online presence on Shopify and equipped her with a shipping guide so she felt confident launching her online store for the very first time.
And the results?
✨
Five-figure launch in the first month
✨
84% increase in traffic
✨
4.49% conversion rate
✨
75+ orders from a brand-new shop
Since launch, Belleame has continued to grow with:
✨
706% increase in traffic
✨
399% increase in orders
✨
5%+ ongoing conversion rate
Jillian went from “no clue how to ship a product” to running a thriving e-commerce business that supports her as a solo esthetician and finally reflects the elevated brand she’s built.
Doll Face Skin Club
Doll Face Skin Club didn’t want another soft, beige, “spa-like” esthetician website because that’s not who they are. Their brand is bold. Punk. Energetic. Loud in all the right ways. Their treatments are results driven, but their personality? Unapologetically fun.
When they came to us, their existing website couldn’t keep up with their vibe or their growth. The branding felt flat. The design lacked personality. The booking flow didn’t reflect their modern, edgy feel. And their online shop wasn’t set up to support the retail expansion they envisioned.
They needed a website that felt like their brand: rebellious, playful, and confident, while still functioning like a polished, high-performing business.
At Dope Magic Co, we transformed their entire digital presence. We:
- built a completely custom Shopify site anchored in their punk, fun brand identity
- infused personality through bold layouts, punchy copy, and high-contrast design
- set them up with rewards, an ingredient checker, and virtual consultation flow
- structured a clean, intuitive online shop ready for future product launches
And the results speak for themselves:
✨ A website that finally matches their in studio personality
✨
A five figure launch
Now, Doll Face Skin Club has a digital home that is just as iconic as their brand. It’s not just a website, it’s a full experience. A vibe. A statement. And most importantly? It converts.
SKINriched Clinic
SKINriched came to us with a clear realization: their old Squarespace site wasn’t doing their multi-location medspa justice. The brand experience inside their clinics felt luxurious, intentional, and results-focused but their online presence felt outdated, limited, and too small for the level of care they provide.
They wanted a website that truly reflected who they were becoming. A site that felt elevated, high-end, and seamless. A digital home that could support multiple locations, higher traffic, increased product sales, and a growing patient community.
So we moved them to Shopify and rebuilt everything from the ground up.
We delivered:
- a fully custom Shopify site designed to feel elevated and editorial
- streamlined navigation that reduced friction and improved the booking experience
- an upgraded online shop built for scale, product education, and high conversion
- advanced features that supported bundling, memberships, and future growth
- a visual identity that aligned with their in-clinic luxury
And the results?
✨
Doubled sales in the first month
✨
Doubled website traffic immediately upon launch
✨ A digital presence that finally reflects their multi-location, luxury-driven brand
✨ A site built to grow with them for years to come
SKINriched now has a polished, strategic online experience that matches the luxury they deliver in person and elevates every step of the patient journey.
