Do you do facials on men?

Of course! While there are several specific facials listed under my Gentlemen’s Facials option, they may also enjoy many of the other offerings on my menu such as No Peel Peels and Microdermabrasion. And let’s not forget Microcurrent! Even men could use a little lift!

How often can I get a facial?

Facials are recommended every 4-6 weeks in order to keep your skin healthy and glowing ensuring it’s in optimum condition. It also allows us to change up your home care routine with the change of seasons if need be. Acne Clients may want to come more frequently with shorter sessions.

Why do I need to reserve my appointment with a credit card?

This is common practice in my industry. Your appointment is important to me. It's time I reserve just for you with the expectation that if you book an appointment with me, you will honor it. I do everything in my power to ensure you do not miss your appointment or double book yourself by sending three (3) reminders. When you don't show for your appointment, or you cancel at the last minute, I am unable to fill the time I reserved just for you! While I love what I do, this also is how I earn a living. Your last minute cancellation or missed appointment means lost income and is why it's necessary to charge for my time that I reserved especially for you.

What is the difference between a brick and mortar location and your NEW home studio?

Absolutely NOTHING! Except for a MORE peaceful environment. I am a professional with over 21-years experience (a decade of which I spent working for a dermatologist in Southern California). Many small businesses were forced to close in the wake of the pandemic. Fortunately, I have been able to reevaluate my business model and create a tranquil and relaxing home studio with private entrance in a beautiful courtyard. In fact, I’m sure that if you ask any of my long-term Clients they’ll tell you, it’s my most peaceful space yet! Plus, parking is a breeze!

Do you offer Botox or Fillers?

No. I am an Esthetician and Estheticians are not permitted to perform these services.

Where are you located?

I’m in Sonoma Ranch East in Las Cruces. About 1 mile from Sunset Grill. Directions are sent in the Confirmation Email that you receive after you schedule your treatment, so keep an eye out for it (and be sure to check Spam/Junk folders!)!

You have so many options? How do I know which treatment is right for me?

Simply choose the facial that appeals to you most. Prior to your treatment, we’ll take time to discuss your specific skin care concerns. Together, we will determine if that treatment aligns with your needs, ensuring you are well on your way to achieving healthy and vibrant skin.

Do you sell skin care?

Absolutely! Professional skin care = Professional results! Facials are a reset button for your skin, however, DAILY care is critical to continued improvement! Because skincare is always evolving, I am always researching the latest and greatest in skincare and only carry professional and clinical grade product lines that were specifically selected for our climate.

If there is a particular day/time you would like to come, I suggest booking in advance as I am usually booked out from 4-6 weeks. I do not have same day appointments available.

Why do I get your voicemail when I call?

I am a solo practitioner. This means that when I’m with a Client, that Client is getting 100% of my attention, just like you will when you are here. If you would like to speak with me, you will need to leave a voicemail and I will call you back by 6pm on the same day. You can also text me which allows me to get back to you faster. I return calls when I am able to devote 100% of my attention to you and have time to answer your questions, etc.

Can I bring a friend?

The answer here is NO. This is standard industry practice. When you come in, I need to focus 100% on YOU! This is YOUR time and I don’t want to be distracted from giving you the BEST treatment for your skin’s needs.

Are you on social media?

Yes and no. I have an account on both Facebook and Instagram, but have found that my time is better spent elsewhere, so I do not post often.
