I want to get a facial but I don't know where to start. Do you have any recommendations?

We recommend starting with a Custom Blend Facial. One of our estheticians will provide a thorough consultation and customize this facial to your skin’s specific needs, after this facial your esthetician will provide other recommendations based on your skin type and concerns.

Should I expect to experience a break out after my Facial Service?

The short answer is no. We use non-irritating formulas to achieve great results- however, occasionally skin will “purge” after a service if you don’t typically use active ingredients in your routine.

What should I experience after my Facial?

You will leave your service feeling hydrated and relaxed and your skin will look healthy and glowing. If your appointment is later in the day (after sunset)  we typically prepare your skin for night and no cleansing is necessary before bed. If your service is completed during daytime hours, SPF will be applied and cleansing before bed will be recommended.
