Facials and exfoliation
Customized facials
Skin analysis first, then cleansing, exfoliation, extractions where warranted, massage, masking, and protection matched to your skin that day.
Back facials
The same deep cleanse, exfoliation, and extractions, for the skin you can't reach yourself.
Hydrodermabrasion and microdermabrasion
Water-based exfoliation with serum infusion (certified through Universal Companies, 2026), or classic microdermabrasion for texture and dullness.
Dermaplaning
Manual exfoliation that lifts dead surface cells and fine facial hair for smoother texture and better product absorption.
Chemical peels
Superficial professional peels chosen for your skin's tolerance, with the prep and aftercare that make them worth doing.
LED light therapy
A calming light treatment, on its own or added to a facial.
Brows, lashes, and waxing
Waxing
Facial and body waxing, done cleanly and with skin comfort in mind.
Brow shaping and lamination
Brows shaped to your face, or brushed up and set so they stay that way for weeks.
Lash lift
A lift and curl from your own lashes, no extensions.
Lash and brow tinting
Tinting matched to your coloring, patch-tested first, so mornings need less.
Home care and makeup
Skin analysis and home care
A written routine after every visit, in the order you will use it, adjusted as your skin changes through the year.
Makeup
Everyday and event application, with the products chosen to suit the skin underneath.
Signs your barrier needs a break.
Your skin barrier is the outer layer that holds water in and keeps irritation out. When it's stressed, strong products hit harder and even gentle ones can sting.
Signs it's stressed
- Skin feels tight after cleansing
- Products sting when they go on
- Redness or flaking shows up out of nowhere
- You're dry and breaking out at the same time
What I'd pause for a week or two
- Exfoliating acids and scrubs
- Retinol and other strong actives (on a prescription? ask your dermatologist first)
- Hot water and long, hot showers
What I'd keep
- A gentle cleanser
- A plain, fragrance-free moisturizer
- Sunscreen every morning
- Then add things back one at a time
What a facial can't do.
Estheticians work on the surface of the skin. Getting you to the right person matters more to me than booking another service.
When I'll send you to a dermatologist:
- A mole or spot that's changing
- Acne that's deep, painful, or scarring
- A rash that won't settle down
- Anything that needs a prescription
