BENEATH THE SURFACE

Founded by Amanda Razzano-Latham, Beneath the Surface Skin Studio was created from a deep desire to serve, support, and love women who had lost confidence through the wounds and pressures of the world. From the very beginning, Amanda believed beauty was never meant to be shallow or surface-level — it was meant to restore confidence, dignity, healing, and identity.

The name Beneath the Surface was inspired by John 7:24: “Look beneath the surface so you can judge correctly.”  That scripture became the foundation of the studio’s heart and mission: to see people beyond appearances and to help every client recognize the beauty, value, and worth that already exists within them.

Beneath the Surface began nearly a decade ago, specializing in Microblading, Lip Blush, and Eyeliner Tattooing. What started as a creative passion quickly became a calling to help women feel restored and confident again- whether after illness, trauma, aging, insecurity, or simply the heaviness life can bring.

Our artists have cultivated more than just a studio — building an atmosphere centered on encouragement, mentorship, healing, and genuine human connection.

Over the years, we have trained and mentored dozens of talented artists and estheticians, helping develop the next generation of beauty professionals while maintaining the high standards, integrity, and artistry that Beneath the Surface is known for today. Every artist within the studio is shaped by a culture of continuing education, compassion, excellence, and timeless beauty.

Carleigh and Luke Myslinski purchased Beneath the Surface in September 2026, and are committed to maintaining the culture and excellence the studio was founded upon — ensuring every client who walks through the doors feels cared for, restored, and truly seen beneath the surface.

 Carleigh spent over 20 years in the beauty industry and her relationship with Amanda and BTS go back much further than this purchase. She was one of Amanda’s very first students, became a client, and over the years they became friends. Beauty, skincare, permanent makeup, and helping people feel confident have been a huge part of her life for a long time.

Carleigh's career has also taken her beyond the beauty industry. She currently works as a Risk Manager for a staffing firm, where she oversees risk management, safety, workers’ compensation, and a variety of operational responsibilities. That experience has given her a strong background in leadership, business operations, problem-solving, and taking care of people — all things she's excited to bring to BTS.

Luke brings an entirely different & valuable set of experiences to BTS. He is the V.P. of Operations for a mediation company, where he helps people navigate difficult situations and find solutions. He has also spent many years serving our community, including as an elected member of Borough Council and volunteering as a firefighter with our local Fire Company.

 If you know Luke, you know that serving others is simply part of who he is. 

 Together, Carleigh & Luke bring two very different backgrounds to BTS — but we share the same values: family, community, hard work, helping people, and treating people the right way. 

 We will continue to provide the high-quality services and personalized experience our clients have come to know, while also bringing new ideas, new services, new talent, and new opportunities to the studio.
