"Maricela is not only charming, but also highly knowledgeably in her craft! She provided me with suggestions, but never pressured me into anything. She treated my skin with meticulous attention according to its specific requirements and I felt completely at ease. I look forward to booking another appointment with her and highly endorse her services!"

Maricela is an exceptional skin care professional and person, whom I highly recommend. Her approach is honest and realistic, and her care for your skin goes beyond mere treatment. As someone who never had the time or interest in facial treatments before, I'm grateful to have found her in my late 40s. There are three reasons why I keep returning to Maricela: First, she cares about your skin and recognizes its relationship with your habits and lifestyle. She sets realistic and cost-effective goals to keep your skin healthy. I started with a Microderma abrasion, and she gave me a free derma-planning treatment for better understanding. Now, I'm on a skin maintenance plan! Second, she's a consummate professional who uses excellent products. She doesn't try to sell you products unless you ask, is efficient with her time and communicates well on scheduling changes. Third, Maricela is an authentic, gracious and generous person. I enjoy spending time with her because I feel cared for rather than marketed to. What more could one wish for from a skin care professional?

Maricela demonstrated expertise, provided thorough explanations throughout the facial procedure, refrained from pushing additional services, and devoted ample time. I relished the facial experience and plan to return to her.

My experience was exceptional and the premises are routinely cleaned and thoroughly disinfected prior to every customer. This guarantees my ease in receiving a facial treatment from Maricela amidst the ongoing pandemic. Her welcoming demeanor, attentiveness, and top-notch service make her an expert in her craft. My skin feels revitalized and I am excited to schedule my next appointment.

My initial experience with Mari for a facial was fantastic! The treatment left me feeling refreshed and rejuvenated, and the extraction process was painless - so much so that I wasn't even aware it was taking place. My skin appeared smoother, and the texture felt firmer. As someone who prefers a minimalistic skincare routine, Mari only suggested products that were necessary, without any unnecessary upselling. I'm so pleased with the services provided that I've already made my next appointment.
