Sweet Skin Spa

Sweet Skin Spa is more than your ordinary spa. The owner and sole esthetician, Jill, holds a wealth of knowledge about proper skin care. She is kind, professional, hip -- and her facials are like nothing you've ever experienced. As an adult, I've suffered from adult on-set acne. Jill not only helped me to get clear skin, but has set-up a maintenance program for both my skin's needs and my budget. The best treatments at Sweet Skin Spa are the peels! These leave your skin feeling fresh, giving your face a dewy look. Of course, Jill knows exactly which facial to use for your skin type. And she never leaves your side during your facial. You’ll find her giving you a head, neck, and arm massage using her favorite creams. I highly recommend Sweet Skin Spa for any of your spa needs. You will not only have fun, but you will leave feeling even more beautiful than when you walked in. Pros: Holistic knowledge of skin care Cons: When you have to go home. more

I've been seeing Jill for years. I started seeing her when I accidentally took off too much of my brow. Thank god for her brow shaping! I can vouch for the great comments from the other reviewers about the benefits of sugar vs. wax, about the quality care and service that Jill and her staff provides, and the relaxed atmosphere that is all about making you feel comfortable. I never feel self conscious as Jill always makes you feel well cared for. I had a family emergency a few years ago and I had to cancel my appointment for emergency travel. Jill kindly offered to squeeze me in and I had a little moment of peace before a week of funeral hell. My brows were a mess, my lip fuzzy, and my skin blotchy from days of crying. She spent 1/2 an hour and simply fixed me. And sent me on the way with soothing skin products. Honestly, it was one less thing to worry about when making funeral arrangements and meeting important family that I had never met before. Not that I cared what I looked like, but I knew I wasn't unkempt and messy and would make my mother proud. SSSpa cared for me when I most needed it. Thanks :) more

I first met Jill about 4 years ago, and have been a loyal customer ever since. She is as sweet as the sugar she uses to give the best treatment ever! So much more comfortable than waxing. You will notice the word "sweet" pops up in many of this Spa's reviews because of Jill's warm, welcoming, and simply sweet personality. Combine this with high professionalism, and you have a rare combination in this gem of an aesthetician. As someone who makes a huge effort to shop as close to home (walking distance or short bus ride) as possible, this is the only service I cheerfully make the drive for. No matter how I feel when I arrive, I always leave feeling cared for by a friend. more

I have followed Jill for 5 years and would hesitate to go anywhere else for waxing (she uses sugar which is much better than wax; why aren't more people using this?). My brows look great every time I walk out the door and they're never red or bumpy, which always happened with hot wax (pre-Jill). She's the best kind of esthetician; sweet, professional, and cares deeply about your happiness with the final product. Isn't that what everyone wants? more

This spa is so great. I have had skin problems for a long time never felt like any esthetician really cared about my skin or issues past my appointment. Jill really sees skin issues as her problem to solve. She actively helps you figure things out without making you feel like you have to buy a ton of products. She does however have some fabulous products and I buy a lot of stuff from her now! She really does her homework and research and makes sure to give you the best products and facials for your budget and skin type. I highly recommend this place and Jill for her expertise and fun loving attitude. Pros: Great products, great employees (Emily and Jill are so sweet and helpful); great facials; Jill does her homework and makes sure to do the best she can for your skin Cons: none at all--I am absolutely and completely a happy customer! more

Jill's been doing facials and brows for me for about a year now. When I first came in, my face had dry patches and oily spots. I was just at a makeup counter. The young ex-model helping me out said I had beautiful skin - that I didn't really need any foundation or powder! I credit Jill's genius. Plus, I think Jill's mineral makeup has helped my skin. It's always a treat to drop into Sweet Skin Spa - like hanging out with a gal pal who happens to be an esthetician extraordinnaire. more

After years of waxing, I'm a true convert to sugaring - it's a much better experience, especially for my skin. Jill is also such a professional - she does a wonderful job, and is so much fun to be around! I try to recommend her spa to everyone I can! Pros: everything is great Cons: none! more

I have been seeing Jill for about 4 years & she is amazing!! I tell all of my friends about her & the fabulous services & products that she offers. Sugaring is definitely the way to go & she will always make you feel very comfortable no matter what service you are getting. more

I've been going to Jill since she moved to her current location and I love her! She justs puts you immediately at ease, which is a pretty handy talent to have in her profession. I have very sensitive skin, and she always knows what my skin needs to make it behave. She has this wonderful cooling mask that feels so wonderful--everyone should try it. She also does a great job on my eyebrows--and they are pretty difficult to tame! Pros: service, location, free street parking more

Jill is the greatest!! She has been waxing me and giving me facials for the past few years and I have followed her everywhere she has been and I am so excited she now has her own place. I love that she knows exactly what I need and want before I even say it and I always look great afterwards. She does it all and you can get in and out quick if you need to but will want to stay and chat anyway. The location is great and she has several great products with the knowledge of these products to get you exactly what you need. I have referred several friends to her that absolutely love her! Pros: Easy to get to, Service is fun yet relaxing! Cons: none more

I've been going to Jill for three years. I'm so excited she has her own spa now! Her services are fabulous, she always asks questions about what I want/need with my treatment, and I have never been disappointed. My brows always look perfect when I walk out of her salon. I recommend Jill to all my friends. You won't be disappointed. Pros: Quality, service, atmosphere Cons: None! more

I was lucky enough to have my hair stylist give me a recommendation for a great spot for a facial. The serene outdoor garden automatically soothed me and put me in the right mind for relaxation. Jill welcomed me at the door with a bright smile and a happy hello and showed me into the room with a very comfortable atmosphere and super lucious french linen robe thing. We talked about my complexion and what she would recommend - she had great ideas on how to help me with my dry skin and little imperfections (my word). Before getting started, she gave me a brow wax - it looks great! The facial felt so good and I was so relaxed. Jill also gave a great face massage - relaxing each pulse point and really helping sooth out my stress. After the massage, she smoothed a mask on my face and left me to listen to the music and doze off a bit. FYI - Jill is awesome at extractions! I have recommended Jill at Sweet Skin Spa to all my friends and have already been back to see her. more
