Clients Reviews

Claudia is an expert at what she does!! She knows what your skin needs to make it look fabulous. With all the info out there I was feeling overwhelmed. She helped me establish a skincare routine *for my skin* and recommended appropriate products. Also the facial she gave me was so good. Go get that glow!!!

Claudia is the best skin esthetician in San Diego/Chula Vista! My skin concerns change with the seasons, so I usually book a customized facial with Claudia because she’ll take the time to evaluate my skin’s current condition, skincare regime, and personal lifestyle before recommending an appropriate treatment. She’ll even provide insight into which treatments work in combination (within a budget), skincare ingredients to focus on, and foods/vitamins for heathier looking skin. SPF and prevention are top of mind when living in sunny San Diego, so you’ll find great professional-grade, anti-aging products on her shelf. Claudia genuinely loves her profession, cares for her clients, stays updates with the industry and is most likely a perfectionist; she takes her time with my skin and answers all the random questions I come up with during our sessions. Plus, I’m able to walk out of the office with instantly radiant skin which improves in the coming days (i.e. HydraFacial). She’s accommodating and will follow-up via text on your skin’s journey. I highly recommend seeing Claudia for your next treatment!
