The Skincare Edit by Belenda
Some people have a way of making you feel instantly at ease. Belenda is one of them.
Before helping shape Club House as our Head of Nail & Skincare, Belenda spent more than two decades in some of the country's most celebrated spas. A licensed nail technician and esthetician, she refined her craft at Disney's luxury spas and the Four Seasons, where she learned that the most memorable treatments have very little to do with polish and everything to do with how a guest feels when they leave.
Raised in Río Grande, Puerto Rico, Belenda discovered her love of beauty while still in high school. Today, she's known for her exacting approach to nail and skincare, her unflappable calm, and the kind of presence that immediately puts people at ease. Outside the Club, she's a proud mother of three daughters who continue to inspire everything she does.
Off Duty
You'll usually find Belenda at home with her family or traveling abroad. If she's out, she's probably wandering a farmers market in search of fresh green juice, bringing home another plant, or taking a quiet walk.
Her Evening Routine
It's surprisingly simple.
A hot shower. Double cleansing. Skincare chosen based on what her skin needs that day, not what a routine says it should be. The evening always ends the same way: with a cup of hot tea.
The Products She Never Skips
Years spent treating thousands of hands and feet have made Belenda thoughtful about what earns a permanent place on her shelf. These are the formulas she reaches for again and again.
Biologique Recherche Lotion P50W
Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentré
SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic
EltaMD UV Daily SPF 40
La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Baume B5+
