Brazilian Waxing
Our Brazilian waxing service uses premium hard wax for minimal discomfort and maximum effectiveness. With thousands of procedures performed, we guarantee precise shaping and long-lasting results. The treatment removes hair from the root, leaving skin smooth for 3-4 weeks with regular maintenance.
Facials
Customized facials include deep cleansing, exfoliation, and targeted treatments using medical-grade products. Each session features a relaxing face, neck, and hand massage to improve circulation. Treatments address specific concerns like acne, aging, or sun damage for visible improvement.
Microdermabrasion
This non-invasive treatment uses medical-grade crystals to exfoliate dead skin cells and stimulate collagen production. It improves texture, reduces fine lines, and evens skin tone. A series of six treatments is recommended for optimal results with no downtime required.
Chemical Peels
Physician-strength chemical peels address sun damage, acne scars, and uneven texture using alpha and beta hydroxy acids. The Vitalize Peel safely treats all skin tones with visible results after one session. Multiple treatments yield dramatic improvements in skin appearance and health.
Lash & Brow Tinting
Natural vegetable-based tints enhance lashes and brows for 3-6 weeks. The Eye Over treatment combines brow shaping, lash tinting, and brow tint for a polished look. Safe formulas provide dramatic results without irritation for sensitive eye areas.

Kara is the absolute best. She genuinely loves what she does, and it reflects in her work and her knowledge. I've had three facials with her and my skin looks absolutely amazing. It looks hydrated has a Glow and a few wrinkles I've had for years are filling in. I feel better, look better and love the relaxing time on her table.

I'm so glad I found Kara! Not only is she highly knowledgeable, sweet and caring, she gives me the perfect brows and lashes every time! I have been getting my blonde lashes and brows done for 15 years, by top stylists in Beverly Hills and Hollywood, CA. When I moved back to Arizona I was hoping to find someone comparable, and she surpasses them all! Her tint is safe, lasts long, and only takes minutes to apply.
Her waxing is also friendly, which is super important to me with my sensitive skin. Kara is the best! Her knowledge in skincare and facial treatments is impressive, which makes it easy for me to refer my friends to her. Best experience!

About 7 years ago I had an injury to my face which left a small dark scar about the size of a nickel. It was fairly obnoxious looking but insurance doesn't cover cosmetic stuff so I let it slide. Understand I've had facials for years, and some pretty exotic ones with sonic peels and bizarre ingredients. None of them ever did much but make me feel better. Then I found Kara! Third facial she used oxygen and this marvelous stuff made from pears and she did a peel.
The scar -- remember it? It's smoothed, and lightened. It also moved which it hadn't before. (skin moves) Fourth facial, we did a repeat and it's even better. Kara is amazing! She knows her business and is a pleasure to work with. She also does my eyebrows and waxing and the results are top-notch. Highly recommended!
