I have been going to AMANDA @ Taylor Kraft Salon (previously when she was in Lafayette) for at least 5+ years. Since that time, my skin has improved wonderfully! She takes the time to really "get to know" your skin type, giving special attention to any problem areas. After her facials (and I have tried many others), my skin radiates! My favorite products, which she uses ("Eminence" from Hungary - organic, made in small batches) is the BEST I HAVE EVER USED! I am a longtime and often buyer of these products. Hitting near 50, I broke out with acne (worse than I ever had)! Amanda sent out products which cleaned up my face within a few weeks. I love her products, her services, and think she is the best person in the skin care industry I have dealt with, including Md's"s! I highly recommend Amanda @ Taylor Kraft Salon, and if you want to have nice skin - give her a try - I am sure you will be back! (I continue to rely on her for each season, getting products for each phase my skin is going through, and get many compliments.) Thank you Amanda, and I encourage anyone to try her. (BTW - I live in Alameda, so I go a long way to see her - she is that good, and aware of my skin and how to make it look its best.) Thanks, Amanda! read more

I live in San Francisco but make a special trip to see Amanda in Mill Valley when I need to get that special facial glow. .I've been going to Amanda for 3 years and she really is the best facialist in the Bay Area. It's worth splurging on the full treatment and getting the hour and 20 minute facial - your skin will thank you for it! Amanda gets all the blackheads, does a good personalized assessment of your needs, uses Eminence products, and she's beautiful and entertaining, so I feel good giving her my money. I've been to many fancy spas in the city that use organic or natural products, but the overall experience with Amanda yields better results and is much more personal. read more

I have been going to Amanda for facials for over 8 years now and my skin has never looked or felt better. She is truly amazing! Not only does she give a great facial with extractions and brow waxing, but she also gives you a neck and shoulder massage and foot massage and treats your hands as well so when you leave there, you have been thoroughly pampered and your skin looks great. She is very knowledgable and has great experience with all types of skin. Her products are of the highest quality and I also buy a lot of my face products from her. You must try Amanda for a facial! You will not regret it. In fact, you will thank me! read more

Ohhhh the bliss . . .the apricot, the cayenne, the secret mixes . . .all organic and all so amazing for my skin. Amanda is not like any other facialist, she spends time with you, really looks at your skin before treating you and then once she has a plan, she just pampers you with luxury and top of the line products. She is always willing to give samples, try new things, and giving advice on how to treat your skin. I have been a regular client and will not look any further because she completely takes care of my face! The bonus is when she is treating you, you feel as if you are in another world and so relaxed!!! Love it! read more

I received a facial from Amanda as a birthday present from my children, it was my 65th. This was my first facial with Amanda, and it was the most wonderful experience. I love Amanda, she is sweet, informative and her products were luscious in so many ways. Having a facial was more relaxing to me than a full massage. I loved having a heating pad on the chair to keep me warm and relaxed. This is a perfect gift for someone you love. I was so delighted with my facial that I have given her name to friends and co-workers so they can have their own divine experience. We are lucky to have Amanda here in Marin County! read more

I have been using the Eminence Handmade Organice Skincare of Hungary for approximately 6 months now and I believe I can not only see a difference in my face but I can feel the difference. Turning 50 is a real motivator to seek out the most effective products to help me look and feel my best. I believe I have found it in this product. I actually look forward to my daily cleansings because I enjoy the refreshing smell and the smoothing feel of this product that I experience each and everytime I use it. Thank you Amanda. read more

I am a Facial Queen - Love them, crave them and want them always! When I want the BEST skin care EVER, I make it a point to hop on the nearest plane and fly to SFO so I can see Amanda Ross.

Go to Mill Valley and check out AMANDA ROSS SKIN CARE, your face will be so happy!!! read more

I adore everything about Amanda and her facials: her sweet personality, individual attention, expertise, amazing products, room decor & atmosphere etc etc!! Although she moved to Mill Valley (I live in Emeryville) it's an easy, scenic drive - and well worth it! Having had incredible facial experiences on the East Coast, I worried that no one would compare - but I was so wrong. Amanda is simply the best! read more

Love, Love, Love Amanda and her organic skincare line. People are always commenting on my skin and I owe it to my "every two month" facials. She gives a great massage and uses every bit of her time. None of this put on the steamer and leave the room for 15 minutes. This is so much better than any of the "salon" facials. Trust me she will make you a regular client. read more

I look forward to my time with Amanda. Not only does she offer the best skin care products on earth (eminence organics from Hungary), she provides professional attention personalized for my skin.

Especially now - Give yourself a treat with the works! read more

Amanda is amazing and so are her facials! She talks just enough to make you feel comfortable and not so much that you can't drift off during the massage or one of the masks. She uses organic products that you can use at home to maintain the cleanliness she leaves you with after a facial. You'll definitely want to go back. I do! read more
