Our Story & Founder

For everyone to face their day with confidence.

Plant-based, clinically-validated cosmeceuticals, helping you change the future of your skin. 

Our Beginning

Our Founder, Christy Hall, is a Board Certified Physician Assistant who owns and operates a world class medical aesthetics practice in Tucson Arizona. Specializing in non-surgical facial rejuvenation, Christy helps her patients improve skin health and reach their aesthetic goals, all day, every day.

When choosing products to recommend to clients, Christy became frustrated by the  lack of healthy, plant-based options available. She saw a need for naturally effective skincare formulations that deliver the same outstanding results as synthetic counterparts, so she set out to change this.

Collaborating with industry experts, Christy began crafting the Mikel Kristi skincare line...

“I wanted to design skincare products that help restore your skin’s natural healthy function, using plant-based ingredients that really work. My desire to create Mikel Kristi came from my own experience as a medical professional, the stories and concerns from thousands of patients that I seen throughout my career,  and my own transformative journey to natural, high-quality skincare. My passion is to provide you solutions that address your skincare needs, as well as an educational path that truly serves you.”

From there the Mikel Kristi brand was born and the Core Collection soon became a must-have. 

Mikel Kristi has since grown into a cosmeceutical-grade, eco-lux product line, offering a stellar range of high-performance skincare essentials. 
Christy continues to innovate and elevate the brand’s formulations with the most effective, bio-active ingredients, bridging the gap between eco-conscious blends, and leading edge scientific skincare. 

Mikel Kristi brings you professional, eco-lux skincare products you won’t be able to live without!         

Meet Christy Hall - PA-C, MPAS

My love and passion for aesthetics began nearly two decades ago, when transitioning from an unfulfilling career in general surgery, where the focus was on treating the symptoms and not the person.  Transitioning to a career cosmetic dermatology, as a board-certified Physician Assistant, proved to be a perfect fit.  Over the years, I became an expert in skin care, lasers, and nonsurgical facial rejuvenation. I learned what worked and didn’t work and what my patients loved and didn’t love. 

Early on I knew this path would be a long rewarding career in helping people feel more confident and beautiful. I made it my mission and passion to learn as much about the skin and structural aging processes as I could, so that I could deliver natural looking results. I've had the opportunity to train with some of the world’s best injectors and skin care experts. I continue to stay as progressive as possible in all areas of aesthetic medicine.

I consider the skin to be my artistic canvas and daily skincare to be one of the most important components of enhancing and maintaining this canvas. Not only do I want to give my patients a more refreshed look in my aesthetic medical practice, I also want them to have healthy, even toned, and radiant skin by using an effective daily skincare regimen.  

 

After opening my own aesthetic medical practice, Skin Appeal, I was excited to embark on the journey of creating a skincare line to enhance the beauty and wellbeing of my patients. Over the past 5 years, Mikel Kristi has grown into a highly sought after cosmeceutical brand that my patients absolutely love!

 

My husband, Dave, and I share our lives with two feisty Boston Terriers and a Lab. In my free time, I love the great outdoors, travel, food and wine. I am an avid trail runner and triathlete with a personal understanding of how detrimental the beauty of nature can be on the skin’s surface.
