Hi, I’m Cenora.
Licensed Esthetician, skincare enthusiast, and owner of Cenora Sage Esthetics.
I’m a California-licensed esthetician and Nevada-licensed Advanced Esthetician with more than six years of professional experience in the industry. Before opening Cenora Sage Esthetics, I worked in established salons and spas in both Reno and Sacramento, where I gained hands-on experience working with a wide range of skin types, concerns, and treatment goals — and it helped shape the kind of esthetician I wanted to be.
I created Cenora Sage Esthetics because I wanted to offer something a little more personal.
I believe great skincare should be results-driven without feeling intimidating, and a facial can be corrective while still being the most relaxing hour of your week. My approach is never one-size-fits-all. I take the time to understand your skin, what you're currently using, your lifestyle, and what you actually want to improve so we can create a plan that makes sense for you.
And I want you to understand your skin, too. I'm big on education, realistic home care, and recommending products because they make sense for your skin — not because you need a 12-step routine.
What I specialize in
My work is centered around personalized facial treatments and skin health, including corrective treatments, hydration, brightening, acne support, healthy aging, dermaplaning, peels and HydraFacial treatments.
I also offer customized lash services and professional waxing, along with mobile and virtual esthetic services for clients who need a little more flexibility.
Whatever brings you in, my goal is the same: for you to feel comfortable, cared for, and confident in your skin.
Beyond the treatment room
Outside of the studio, I'm a wife and mom to a very energetic little girl, and family is a huge part of my life. I love good food, traveling when I get the chance, discovering new skincare products (occupational hazard!), and the occasional glass of wine.
Cenora Sage Esthetics is a small business in the truest sense. When you book an appointment, send a message, purchase a product, or leave a review, there's one person on the other side of it — me. And I'm incredibly grateful that my clients trust me with their skin and their self-care.
Confidence that needs no filter.
Whether you're ready to work toward a specific skin goal, want help figuring out where to start, or simply need an hour that's entirely about you, I'd love to welcome you into my studio.

“Cenora is my new go to. Her energy is so calm and she is one of the most genuine person. Never tried to sell me anything, very meticulous with her work. I did a lash lift and tint and my lashes have NEVER looked this good. I would very much recommend her as your beauty guru.”

“I scheduled a Relax & Restore facial after a stressful, exhausting week, and it was everything I was hoping for and more. The face and arm massage was divine, and my skin was glowing by the end of it. The atmosphere was relaxing, the bed was comfortable, and the temperature was just right. If you are thinking about booking a service, I cannot recommend Cenora Sage Esthetics enough!”
