I tried the Zen Vitamin C Facial ($95) using a Groupon. When I walked in, I was greeted immediately and a friendly receptionist walked me back to the spa lounge, where they provided a spa robe, shoes, lockers, and an assortment of teas and coffees. The lounge was small, but very well designed and decorated to create a calm, zen atmosphere, perfect for gearing down for a facial or massage. This was by far the most spa-like lounge I've been to in Houston, where as all of the other ""spas"" are really just back rooms of hair and nail salons. Michelle was quiet and calming and asked many skin/facial related questions before she began. She had a gentle, but firm touch, crucial to a good facial. Michelle was thorough and handled the entire facial very professionally. She also gives a good scalp massage, while leaving your hair only a little bit oily. My only complaint was that she was a bit too serious when discussing skin issues (ie. critical of my current skin routine). While I like educated estheticians working on my face, her demeaner was a little offputting during the lesson speach. I walked out of Sensia with my face feeling clean, tight, and well hydrated - and that lasted through the evening. Overall, Michelle gave a great facial, definitely worth the $75 basic zen facial cost.
Pros: Spa like atmosphere, relaxing, good facial, professional
