Best Skin Care In Santa Monica

“Brianna was my Botox lady and was amazing. I did 50 units on my forehead, frown lines, smile lines, and got a brow lift that I’m very pleased with as it didn’t interfere with my forehead lines. They also do hyaluronic filler which I didn’t get this time but saw someone there who just got it in their cheek/temple area and looked amazing. Also staff is super sweet and location is relaxing and clean/professional with an amazing view of SM“

“I’ve been going to European Wax Center for years, Since they opened on Montana and while I’ve had several wonderful waxers, they always seem to leave just when I find someone I really love. This time, though, I found the GOAT: Joelle.
Joelle is, without question, the best waxer I’ve ever had. I honestly couldn’t believe how painless the entire appointment was. Usually, even with an experienced waxer, you expect at least a little sting or pinch. Not with Joelle. There wasn’t a single moment where I tensed up or thought, “Here it comes.” It was so smooth and comfortable that I almost forgot I was getting waxed. That’s how talented she is.
I don’t even come in that often because my hair grows so slowly maybe four times a year but I’ll gladly schedule around Joelle’s availability. If she ever leaves, I’ll probably follow her wherever she goes.
Now for the downside and unfortunately, it’s a big one.
The front desk experience at the Montana location has consistently been disappointing. it seems like they go through front desk staff very quickly. I’m probably because they’re not selling or whatever the criteria is to be a front desk staff there but that’s the biggest turn off because as a person who gets waxed I’m always gonna come back. I don’t need to have a sales pitch. I’ll always spend my money at a place that has quality waxers. Women will always go to a place they trust They don’t need to have a sales pitch of buying packages if they want to they will. I hate when companies do this. It’s the worst thing a huge turn off and I don’t think one woman or a man that walks in there would not agree with Me The people actually performing the waxing are fantastic, but the reception staff often comes across as cold, insincere, and overly focused on selling instead of serving customers. Every visit feels like the same scripted sales pitch about buying a Wax Pass because “prices are going up.” I’ve heard it over and over, yet somehow the urgency never seems to match reality. It feels less like helpful information and more like pressure.What makes it worse is that the friendliness feels forced. Instead of feeling welcomed or appreciated as a loyal customer, I often leave the front desk feeling like I’m just another sales opportunity. There’s a big difference between excellent customer service and reading from a script, and unfortunately, it shows.In fact, I never leave my tip with the front desk because I don’t feel comfortable trusting that it will make it to my waxer. I always bring cash and hand it directly to my waxer before I leave the room.Thankfully, once you’re with the waxers, the experience completely changes. Every Waxer I’ve had has been wonderful, but Joelle is on another level. She is exceptionally skilled, incredibly professional, and truly gifted at what she does. She turned what is usually an uncomfortable appointment into one of the easiest I’ve ever had.European Wax Center is lucky to have her. If you’re booking an appointment, ask for Joelle. She’s worth every penny.“

“The best lash lift I’ve had in LA! Jin really takes her time and places each lash very thoughtfully. There’s no sharp fold and the outer edge lashes are fanned out nicely. My lashes post lash lift have an even, natural curl that allows me to still put strip lashes on. Because it is a soft curl the lashes do not look crazy as they grow out and are replaced by my natural straight lashes.

Jin also prioritizes lash health and was super helpful in showing me where I had gaps in my lashes (from curling with a heated eyelash curler and using waterproof mascara daily) and gave me extra keratin from my treatment to take home.“

“I could not be more pleased with the results of the treatments I got and appreciate how welcoming, professional and nice Dr. Kormeili and her staff are!“

“I've ben working virtually with Tarsh for over a month. She is incredibly knowledgeable - a true expert on how the skin functions and what makes it healthy. My skin has never been better!! I am so thrilled with the products I'm now using and the support from Tarsh. Thank you! <3“

“Veronica has been my facialist monthly close to forty years and I've referred any any number of friends and family membrs to her over all these years. She has recommended many wonderful products best-suited for me including her own proprietary. I respect her knowledge, her understanding of my skin, her dedication and her exquisite taste.
She's a lodestar in the world of personal care and beauty.“

I left FACEGYM feeling refreshed and my skin looked amazing. I highly recommend booking with Jeff .You will enjoy!“

“I always have a great experience at Kalologie. Carmen is incredibly professional, friendly, and welcoming. She truly knows what she’s doing. She takes the time to answer all of my questions, and creates an environment where you feel at ease and want to keep coming back.
The entire staff is just as wonderful—everyone is warm and welcoming from the moment you walk in.“

“What an amazing experience! I had dermaplaning, a mandelic peel, a lymphatic drainage massage, and radio frequency with red light therapy. My skin felt incredibly smooth, looked brighter, and had such a healthy glow afterward. The lymphatic massage was so relaxing, and I left feeling refreshed. The treatment was explained every step of the way, and I felt completely comfortable throughout the appointment. I can't wait to see the continued results and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommended!
Thanks mamacita!“

“Had the best facial by Kristina. It was so soothing that I fell asleep and there was a noticeable difference in my skin by the end of the session. Will definitely be back!“

“I recently started seeing Dane for skincare treatments, and I’ve already had such a positive experience. During our first session, she really took the time to listen to my background and history with my skin, which made me feel genuinely heard and understood. Her demeanor is incredibly calm, kind, and welcoming, creating a very comfortable environment right away.

She thoughtfully guided me toward the right treatment plan and clearly explained why it was the best approach for my skin, which I really appreciated. After the appointment, she even followed up via email to check on how everything went, reviewed the products she recommended, and sent links to make things easy, such a thoughtful touch.

I’ve already been back a couple of times and am excited to make this my new go-to spot for skincare. Highly recommend Dane to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, caring, and attentive esthetician!“

“Exceptional Lash Experience with Ashley

I recently had the pleasure of having my lashes done by Ashley, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. As someone who was a bit nervous after over a year since my last appointment, Ashley's professionalism and warm demeanor immediately put me at ease.

Throughout the process, Ashley's organization and attention to detail were truly impressive. She took the time to walk me through each step, ensuring I was comfortable and informed. Her expertise was evident in the final result, as my lashes turned out exactly how I had envisioned.

What truly stood out was how Ashley made the entire experience enjoyable; time flew by during the two-hour session. I left feeling pampered, satisfied, and already looking forward to booking my next appointment with her.

If you're looking for a talented and personable lash artist, I highly recommend Ashley for a top-notch service that exceeds expectations.“

“THANK YOU, CONSTANZA!

Let me paint a picture for you…

I walked into Burke Williams in Santa Monica feeling really stiff and dealing with a lot of back issues. I’ve had plenty of massages throughout my life, but I’ve never really taken the time to explain exactly what was going on with my body.

Constanza was different.

She genuinely wanted to understand what I was dealing with. She asked questions, listened, took an interest, and I could tell she actually cared about helping me feel better. That is incredibly refreshing.

I walked out of Burke Williams feeling like a completely new person. I honestly can’t say enough about the experience. You can’t put a price tag on this feeling.

I will absolutely be coming back a few times a month. Constanza has an incredible gift with her hands, and I’m genuinely grateful for the care and attention she gave me.

Burke Williams is extremely lucky to have someone like Constanza on their team. She doesn’t just give you a massage, she makes you feel legitimately better. Truly remarkable.

Thank you again, Constanza! And a special shout out to Juan, who was an absolute delight as well.

I can’t recommend Constanza enough!“

“The Doctor and his whole staff made me feel cared for and calm during my procedure. You can tell that they truly love what they are doing.“

“I recently had a Moxi laser treatment on my aging face performed by Pam Anderson. Pam kept me calm, comfortable & relaxed throughout the entire session which made the experience very tolerable.
I’m now on my 5th day post treatment and I’ve already noticed that my skin looked brighter and my pores appear less visible. I no longer feel the need of heavy powder make up to cover my skin. I am very happy with the results so far and look forward to my next treatment.“

“Love this place ❤️nice people and professional stuff ?the Best nail master of course ✨⭐️“

“I utterly enjoyed my last visit and am obsessed with my hair. The staff are incredibly friendly from the moment you step in. Heather did my hair and we tried out balayage, she was fantastic—super attentive, skilled, and genuinely funny. This is my second time seeing Heather, and she never disappoints; she’s friendly, funny, and has a spooky-girl-at-heart vibe that totally matches mine.

Bella (the lovely assistant) was wonderful and sweet, adding to the warm, welcoming atmosphere. The products used smelled amazing and left my hair feeling silky and vibrant. Parking is easy in the back, just be sure to scan in.

Bonus points for Bailey the salon puppy—an absolutely adorable, friendly spark of joy that made the whole experience even better. The balayage has a beautiful rose-gold vibe and has earned me a ton of compliments.

Overall, a flawless experience from start to finish. I can’t wait to return to see Heather and the team again.“
