Jessica Smith, a 17 year old NVQ Level 3 Beauty Therapy student at Kidderminster College, is celebrating after winning the title of Dermalogica Student of the Year, an award which highlights Jessica's dedication to Beauty Therapy.

Dermalogica runs its Student of the Year competition throughout colleges nationwide. Each college has one winner, chosen by the course tutor, who receives a beautician's fob watch and £100 worth of Dermalogica products.

Portia Foster, Beauty Therapy Course Tutor said: "Each year I am asked by Dermalogica to nominate the student who I feel demonstrates the most professionalism in handling clients, attention to detail and all-round expertise as our Student of the Year. Jessica is a highly motivated and dedicated student and certainly stood out to me as our Dermalogica Student of the Year."

Andrew Miller, College Principal added: "Jessica is an excellent and very deserving winner, the Beauty Tutors have been delighted with her work and I am pleased to see that she has returned to Kidderminster College this year to complete her Level 3 NVQ."

After being presented with her award from Mr Miller, Jessica said: "It was a lovely surprise to be told I'd won the competition especially as I got £100 worth of Dermalogica products too - they're really nice, expensive products!"
