Elegance Esthetics Wholesalers Corporation sells various esthetics treatment tools, esthetic and spa supplies. In 2020, Elegance Esthetics signed a two-year contract with Saskatoon College to supply it with 100 esthetic tool and product kits for students in the college's esthetics program for each academic semester.
