Industry Overview and Capital Required

The skin care industry is a lucrative business, with the global market estimated to reach a staggering $200 billion by 2025. As a sole proprietor of KTH Esthetics, you're about to embark on a journey where your business can be as smooth as the skin of your clients.



To get started, you'll need a healthy dose of capital, around $50,000 should do the trick. This will cover the cost of setting up your cozy little esthetics studio, stocking up on top-notch skin care products, and even buying a few must-have gadgets like a state-of-the-art steam machine to give your clients that spa-like experience.

Licenses and Registrations

As a skin care business owner, you'll need to navigate the world of licenses and registrations. First and foremost, you'll need to obtain a general business license. This is your ticket to operate legally and avoid any unwanted visits from the authorities, who are notorious for being as stern as a facial peel.
  • Seller's Permit: This permit allows you to collect sales tax from your clients and remit it to the government. It's like a golden ticket to sell your products without any pesky legal issues.

  • Business Name Registration: Whether you choose to operate as a sole proprietorship or register as an LLC or S-Corp, you'll need to officially register your business name. This ensures no one else is using the same name and helps establish your brand identity.

  • Employer Identification Number (EIN): This nine-digit number, issued by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), is essential for opening a business bank account, filing taxes, and even hiring employees. It's like a social security number for your business.

    • Special Permits

    Depending on your location and the specific requirements of your state or municipality, you may need to obtain additional permits or licenses. These could include:
  • Cosmetology License: If you plan to provide esthetic services, such as facials or waxing, you may need a cosmetology license or esthetician certification.

  • Zoning Permits: Make sure your business location is zoned for commercial use and complies with any local zoning regulations.

  • Health Department Inspections: Some jurisdictions may require regular health inspections for businesses that handle skin care products or provide esthetic services.
    • Remember, the key to navigating this regulatory landscape is to research the specific requirements in your area and stay on top of any updates or changes. It's like mastering the art of facial contouring – it takes practice, but the end result is worth it!

    Industry Numbers: Let's Talk Skincare Biz!



    The skincare industry is positively glowing! With people spending billions to keep their skin looking fabulous, you're stepping into a lucrative market. In 2023, the global skincare industry was valued at over $130 billion and is expected to keep growing like a well-watered aloe plant. It’s a prime time to hop on the skincare bandwagon and start selling those magical potions.

    Equipment and Capital: What's in Your Esthetician Kit?



    Starting your skincare empire doesn’t need to break the bank. You’ll need a cozy treatment space, perhaps a massage table, some soothing music, and all your skincare tools. Throw in some capital for initial stock – cleansers, moisturizers, and those wrinkle-reducing wonders – and you’re on your way. Here’s a basic checklist to get you going:

  • **Treatment Table:** Where the magic happens!

  • **Skincare Products:** Your line of cleansers, exfoliators, moisturizers, and more.

  • **Marketing Materials:** Business cards, flyers, and an Instagram account brimming with before-and-after pics.

  • **Initial Capital:** Budget for initial product inventory and some comfy towels.

    Hi. If I'm selling a product in my spa is it required to have a sellers permit? I'm an esthetician I own my own business as the sole proprietor I will be selling a skin care product from a wholeseller.    

    Do You Need a Seller's Permit?

    Absolutely! If you’re selling products, especially ones that’ll make people’s skin glow, you’ll need a seller's permit. This lets you collect sales tax from your customers. Think of it as your VIP pass to the retail world. Without it, you’d be skating on thin ice with the tax folks.

    Do You Need to Register Your Business Name?

    Oh yes! Since you’re rocking the name "KTH Esthetics," it’s a good idea to register it. This is often called a DBA (Doing Business As). It makes your business name legit and keeps your customers from thinking you’re just a side hustle. Plus, it’s like putting a name tag on your baby – you want people to recognize your brand!

    LLC or S Corp: Do You Need One?

    It’s decision time! While you can start as a sole proprietor, upgrading to an LLC (Limited Liability Company) or an S Corp has perks:
  • **LLC:** It gives you personal liability protection. If someone decides to sue because they didn’t quite get that baby-soft skin, your personal assets (like your beloved collection of face masks) are safe.

  • **S Corp:** Similar protection as an LLC but with potential tax benefits. It’s more complex and usually better for businesses with significant profit and employees.
    • For a small skincare biz, an LLC is often the way to go. It’s like the SPF 50 of business structures – strong protection without too much fuss.

    What’s an EIN and Why Do You Need One?

    An EIN (Employer Identification Number) is like your business’s Social Security number. It’s used for tax purposes and is crucial if you plan on having employees or opening a business bank account. Even if you’re a sole proprietor, having an EIN is handy and keeps your personal and business finances untangled.

    Special Permits: Keep It Clean and Legal

    Depending on your location, you might need a special esthetician’s license to provide skincare treatments. This ensures you’re trained to handle all the exfoliating and hydrating your clients’ faces can take. Check your local requirements to make sure you’re good to go.

    Where to Get Started?

    Ready to glow? to get the lowdown on all the licenses, permits, and registrations you need. They’ll help you navigate the bureaucratic waters and get your business sparkling in no time. Now, go forth and conquer the skincare world, one radiant face at a time! 🌟💆‍♀️

    ✔ Biz Structure

    You can choose to be a(n) Esthetician :

    • Sole Proprietor,
    • LLC,
    • Corporation or
    • Partnership.
      After you decide and select your business entity, you need licensing.


    ✔ Biz License


    Las Vegas Business Tax Registration ( Business License)
    All businesses including home, online or mobile BUSINESS need a BUSINESS license because they are BUSINESSES.


    ✔ DBA Biz Name

    A(n) Esthetician business using a fictitious business name in Clark County i.e. you are a business with a trade name other than the owner's legal (full name) name are required to get a(n) fictitious business name.   For instance you open a(n) Esthetician business and you name it "Superior Esthetician Group". You will need to file a fictitious business name for that name.
    ✔ Seller Permit

    In NV you need a resale ID ( AKA seller's permit) if you selling touchable items.  (A.K.A state id, wholesale, resale, reseller certificate, about $39 for most states).
    Seller's Permit

    ✔ Federal EIN


    Note: All businesses need a federal tax ID number except sole proprietors that are not employers and are not independent contractors.
    An independent contractor is a self employed business person that receives more than $600 per year from anyone of his or her clients.
    IRS rule: The client must issue a 1099 form to the independent contractor and the independent contractor must have a federal tax ID. However, even sole owners may obtain a federal ID and use it as a business tax ID instead of using their own social security number as a business tax ID number.
    However, all other licenses that apply to sole proprietors as discussed here are requited regardless of getting a federal tax ID number.

    ✔ State EIN

    In addition you will need a federal and a state EIN if you will hire employees. I.e., a NV Federal Tax Id Number ($29)  and a(n) NV  State Employer Tax Number  

    ✔ L L C

    Instead of filing a fictitious business name DBA Filing (about $49 plus state and legal newspaper publication fees) in Las Vegas, Incorporate in NV  or form a(n) NV LLC     . 

    You have a choice to file a DBA or form an LLC or incorporate. If you will do business under your first and last legal name you will not need to get a fictitious business name.
    Also note that even using your first and last name may not help you avoid filing a DBA if the name has a suffix such as "& sons" etc.

    ✔ Incorporation


    If you do form an Other llc or incorporate (about $49 plus state fees for most states) your Esthetician business instead of just filing a fictitious business name (dba), it will help you avoid personal liability from wrongs arising from your business dealings and you will not have to file the Las Vegas business name. In lieu of recording a Clark County trade company name (our filing service fee includes trade name registration and newspaper legal publication for 4 weeks) you can also form a corporation in NV or form an NV LLC (starts @ $49 plus state fee for most states & includes required documents such as bylaws for the corporation and Limited Liability operating agreement for the LLC). .
