Hi I’m Angela Rider! I am the owner of Elevate Cosmetics Idaho. I’ve been a Licensed Esthetician for 6 years and a certified Cosmetic Tattoo Artist for 4 years. I currently offer Cosmetic Tattooing, Waxing, Lash and Brow Services and Clinical Skincare Treatments.
I’m very passionate about Permanent Makeup and love helping women to achieve a more beautiful low maintenance look for their brows or eyeliner whether it’s a soft natural look or a more complete makeup look. I think my love for Permanent Makeup comes from the fact that I do my makeup daily and have to fill in brows that over time are continually becoming thinner and more sparse. I also just love brows! BROWS BROWS BROWS. EYELINER TOO!
I also specialize in advanced waxing. As soon as I became licensed I immediately started working at European Wax Center in Meridian/Boise where I quickly advanced to the highest level waxer. In order to achieve this level one must be able to complete a Brazilian, Underarm and Brow wax in 15 minutes! CRAZY, I know! I don’t necessarily require that for myself now that I am my own business but I do still wax very quickly while making sure my clients are comfortable. I personally don’t want to be receiving a Brazilian wax that takes longer than 15 minutes! So I like to keep my clients busy schedules in mind. My clients all appreciate the quick appointments and appreciate my efficient use of time. I typically get booked for Brazilian, Bikini, Brow, and Underarm waxing but I still offer all waxing for face and body. I have years of experience perfecting my wax techniques and can in great confidence promise my clients the most comfortable and quick wax experience of their life.
I find so much fulfillment in taking care of my clients that walk through the door! I pride myself in making everyone feel as comfortable as possible and always doing my best to meet their needs! As I’ve gotten older (not that I’m real old!) and after becoming a mother (which has contributed to lots of personal growth!) I’ve started to take more care for the relationships in my life and also those around me. I just want the best for everyone and to help others realize they are important! I feel this attitude translates into my work and my clients feel more cared for on the inside as well as the outside.
I moved to Burley in 2022 and look forward to serving the Burley area. As I start rebuilding my business and clientele in this area I plan to continue my education in the industry and expand more of my services. Eventually I’ll be offering my skills and knowledge to train others entering this industry.
Outside of work I’m mostly busy loving on and adoring my three children, working on multiple never ending diy house projects, and also trying to spend time to be with my wonderful husband who has supported me in my business. I also take time to serve in my church and regularly contribute a portion of my income to its various programs including humanitarian aid and welfare.
