Energy & Vision
Melanie Hamilton — Owner & Licensed Esthetician
Strata Skin is a quiet, local esthetics practice in Eugene, created by Melanie Hamilton. Strata offers facials that blend relaxation, thoughtful skin analysis, and visible progress—always grounded in care. Whether you’re here to unwind or begin a deeper skin journey, you are welcome.
My Path to Beauty
I often ask simple, grounding questions like, “What do you love about your skin?” And if you don’t yet have an answer, I’m here to help you grow one—to help you learn to celebrate yourself with ease and confidence.
I’ve been drawn to beauty and women my entire life—from icons like Barbie and Martha Stewart to artistic interpretations, ancient myths, cherished objects, and the ever-evolving conversations about women, feminity, and cultural standards. My curiosity runs both wide and deep.
Through years of studying art, beauty, and human experience, I’ve learned that while external beauty has real value, feeling beautiful comes from alignment—clarity about who we are, what matters to us, and how we move through the world.
My Approach to Skincare
I aim to offer more than skincare. Through Strata, I’m creating rituals that nourish both your skin and your peace.
As I work in this field, my knowledge of skin types, common concerns, and holistic treatment plans expands every day. My goal is to weave thoughtful, grounding steps into every service—so you leave looking radiant, but also feeling relaxed, reset, and deeply cared for.

A calm, welcoming atmosphere
Attention to you—your needs & concerns
Gentle, intentional touch

The Vision for Strata

I can’t wait to meet you.
