Meet Nathalie And Sandra Kournif And Bouvier | Beauticians

We had the good fortune of connecting with Nathalie And Sandra Kournif And Bouvier and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Nathalie and Sandra, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
We decided to open our own beauty institute out of a passion for wellness, aesthetics, and the desire to offer each client a personalized experience.
We wanted to work according to our values and provide high-quality services in a welcoming environment where listening, satisfaction, and results are at the heart of our approach.
We were already owners of our own institutes in France, and we wanted to take on a new challenge.
So, we decided to join forces and open an institute here in Florida to represent French expertise.
Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
We are two passionate French estheticians with several years of experience in the beauty and wellness industry. After managing our own beauty institutes in France, we decided to combine our skills and passion to open a new institute here in Boca Raton, in partnership with the prestigious French brand Guinot.
We are now on the verge of opening our doors, and we are truly excited to welcome our future clients and introduce them to our world. What sets us apart is our personalized, elegant, and professional approach, inspired by authentic French expertise.
Our goal is to offer more than just treatments — we want to create a true beauty and relaxation experience, in a chic, warm, and authentically French atmosphere.
This project has been a real challenge, as we had to rebuild everything in a new country, with a new language and new cultural references. But we’ve faced every step with determination, staying true to our values: quality, high standards, and passion.
What makes us most proud is the enthusiasm already building around our opening and the support we’ve received. It confirms that we made the right choice, and we can’t wait to meet our first clients, pamper them, and share a little touch of French elegance.
Our story is one of two passionate women who believed in their dream… and are now ready to bring it to life.
Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
We’ve been living in Boca Raton for only three months, so we’re still discovering the area day by day. But if our best friend came to spend a week here, we’d do everything to give them a memorable time — a mix of relaxation, local discoveries, and great meals!
To start, we’d obviously take them to our beauty institute for a facial or a moment of French-style wellness — it’s our world and we love sharing it. Then we’d head to Boca Raton Beach, which is absolutely stunning. The water is clear, the sand is clean, and it’s perfect for relaxing or taking a beautiful walk at sunset.
For going out, we love Mizner Park — it’s elegant, lively, and full of great places to grab a drink, do a little shopping, or just wander around. For dining, we’d try a few restaurants we’ve recently discovered, like Max’s Grill in Mizner or Ichiyami Buffet and Sushi in Royal Palm.
We’d also love to show them Delray Beach, just a few minutes away, with its more artistic vibe and small galleries. And if they enjoy nature, we’d take a walk through the gardens at Gumbo Limbo Nature Center — a peaceful spot where you can see sea turtles and experience the local natural beauty.
Since we’re still exploring the region ourselves, we’d also share the adventure of discovering new places together: hidden cafés, local markets, weekend events… It would be a mix of simple pleasures, relaxation, and meaningful conversations — the kind only real friends know how to share.
Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
We would like to thank our families and close friends for helping and supporting us in the creation of this project.
We also want to thank our French clients who encouraged us and understood our vision.
All these people gave us the strength to believe that we could bring this somewhat crazy project to life.
