Cristina was amazing! I've dealt with milia on my nose for as long as I can remember but they've gotten particularly noticeable in recent years. I decided I wanted to get them extracted because they were driving me crazy, and after some searching I discovered Cristina. I booked the Intensive Blemish Treatment with her and she did a wonderful job at extracting all of my milia. She did it with such care that they healed flawlessly. Definitely will be going back to her in the future!

Cristina has been my go-to esthetician for years--I have now followed her to a third location, her current lovely space in Walnut Creek. She is an absolute master of her craft, and still she continues to stay super up to date on the latest advancements in skin care. She is also incredibly caring and a lovely person to be around. I recommend her to all of my friends. Don't let anyone else do your extractions!

I was nervous to go to a new esthetician, but all the great reviews convinced me to give the Skin Gem a try. I just had my first facial with Cristina and my skin is GLOWING! I booked the custom basic facial, and Cristina evaluated my skin before deciding which type of facial would be best for me. I really liked that she customized the treatment instead of a "one size fits all" approach. Also, Cristina really took her time (facial was 1 hr 30 mins), which was such a relaxing treat. Plus the pricing is reasonable, especially considering the excellent service the Skin Gem provides. Go see her!
