Today we’d like to introduce you to Alina Bivol.
Hi Alina, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
My story is one of courage, reinvention, and believing it’s never too late to follow a new path. I began my career in Moldova, where I studied law and worked in the legal field. When life brought me to Florida, I had the chance to begin again and I chose to follow a passion that had been growing in me for years: skincare and helping people feel confident in their own skin.
I trained, earned my Florida license, and kept learning with every opportunity. In 2024, I took a leap of faith and created Balsperia Beauty. Building a business while raising a family and continuing my education has challenged me, but it has also shown me how much can grow from a simple belief in yourself.
Today, I’m proud to have turned a personal passion into meaningful work. My journey is still unfolding, and I hope it reminds other women that they can start again, keep learning, and create a future that feels true to them.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
It definitely hasn’t been a smooth road. Moving to a new country meant starting over in many ways building a new career, learning how things work in a different professional environment, and finding the confidence to take a chance on myself. I also had to balance growing my business with being present for my family and continuing my education.
There were moments when progress felt slow, and times when I questioned whether I could make it all work. I learned to keep going one step at a time, stay open to learning, and not let setbacks define me. Those challenges have made me more resilient and have helped me appreciate how far I’ve come.
Appreciate you sharing that. What should we know about Balsperia Beauty ?
Balsperia Beauty is a skincare and aesthetics business built around personalized care. I offer treatments such as customized facials, deep cleansing, hydrodermabrasion, dermaplaning, microneedling, chemical peels, and body services. I also work alongside a physician for select advanced treatments, so clients can explore options suited to their individual needs.
What sets Balsperia apart is the attention each client receives. I don’t believe skincare should be one-size-fits-all. I take time to understand a client’s concerns, explain the options, and recommend a thoughtful plan focused on their goals and skin. I want every person who comes in to feel comfortable, cared for, and confident—not pressured.
I’m proud that Balsperia has grown from a personal passion into a brand with its own identity and a community of clients who trust me with their skincare. My goal is to keep learning, offer thoughtful services, and help people feel good in their skin at every stage of their journey.
We love surprises, fun facts and unexpected stories. Is there something you can share that might surprise us?
Something that surprises people is that before becoming an esthetician, I studied law and earned a master’s degree in criminal law and criminology in Moldova. My path from the legal world to skincare may seem unexpected, but both careers share something important: listening carefully, paying attention to details, and helping people feel supported. I never imagined those skills would lead me to build Balsperia Beauty—but I’m grateful they did.
