My product selection is a true reflection of my practice. I offer everything that my clients would need in order to address their skin issues, from acne to aging, and in between, and my intention is to keep perfecting the selection and keep being science and research based.

I started as a strictly treatment oriented Esthetician, but over the course of time I noticed that my clients were seeking very precise product options after their treatment, and than the most of the skin care lines failed to provide excellency in all products offered. Every line had a "hero" product or two and then the rest of were mediocre standard ones at best.  Also, there are so many product lines on the market right now, that it very confusing to clients as to which skin care product to buy, why and how to use them in the most effective way. Internet could be a black hole for the knowledge seekers because there are so many conflicting theories, and a lot of quackery. I make it easy for my customers to have a comprehensive and affordable skin care routine. As I always say, more facials, less products!

It was the most vibrant metropolis with fantastic bohemian life, culture, art, culinary and music scenes. Beautiful people, smart and cultured, caught in a paradox of westernization, socialism and post modernism. And as we all know the best estheticians always come from Eastern Europe!

Before I started my own practice there was a tipping point in my career where it became clear to me that people were really in need of good quality and personalized skincare services and that I should venture on my own.  Shortly after, I had a waitlist of 30-50 people wanting to see me and that list was ever so growing. As flattering as that might be, I really did not want to expand to the point where the quality of my treatments would suffer, as so often happens. I am still one woman business that is growing and I keep insisting on quality of my life and in-depth studying of the new techniques and technology.

In the last couple of years, it came to me that I had to steer my business to a holistic practice, with a major accent on wellness and health. I have the "dewy" and "clear" skin part down, but I have noticed how much un-wellness there is in Los Angeles and in the busy lives of so many women and men and how I actually have the perfect set of skills to help people. That is where I am deepening my practice now.

The natural stress of a daily coping fills one with adrenaline and cortisol whether its a drive across Los Angeles, an irritating encounter, or a simple thing not going right at work or during your day. To get rid of cortisol and adrenaline deposits (which cause Aging, Dehydration, Lines, and Muscular Spasms….!! ), we need to calm the mind, breathe and drain the lymphatic fluids, rehydrate, NOT exercise more.

Some of my clients I have been treating for 15 years so they know…be careful with taking random advices from non experts. Always check the credibility of the author or a source.  

A skin care routine should be short and simple and skin care treatments as regular as massage, nail and hair treatments. Skin care products are NOT collectible and NOT fashion items. They clash with each other, they have an expiration, and often times are redundant or unnecessary.

I dread those photos on social media with mountains of random branded products. What does that even mean?
