I wanted to try a longer lasting eye lash treatment so I felt more put together even without make…read moreup. I saw a Groupon for a lash lift treatment at this location and decided to give it a whirl. First, the booking experience and communication for the appointment were excellent! An accident on the mopac meant I was going to be late for my scheduled time (unforeseen, I left with PLENTY of wiggle room but we all know how accident traffic in Austin can be). I called to let the shop know and they were very accommodating in pushing my apt out a bit due to the u expected delay - 5 star! The shop itself was small but clean and well appointed. The room where I received my service was cozy and comfortable with blankets and pillows on offer for additional coziness if desired. My esthetician was friendly and talked me through the whole service - including explaining how the process worked and the products being used (they touted the treatment as less harsh and more "natural" than typical services). Admittedly, I am new to the lash game so this review does not have any previous experiences to compare results against or chemical vs natural products to know if one is better or worse. Check-out using the Groupon was quick and easy and so was tipping (my esthetician had a Venmo code up in the room). The only reason I can't give a full 5 stars (I would give 4.5 if I could - come on Groupon) is for two reasons. First, and this is something that happens at all beauty type appointments but it is annoying, products were pushed/recommended at check out. For me, I'd much prefer to only learn about products if I ask. If I don't ask then I'm not looking or interested and I dislike when I feel that I'm trying to be upsold at the end of an otherwise great experience. Second and this might just be my needing to manage my own first time expectations, the end result isn't as dramatic as I was expecting. I guess I expected it to look like I had false eyelashes. My lashes do look like they have a light coat of mascara on but it isn't as dramatic as I was anticipating but that's probably because I was thinking of lash extension results or false lash look and that's not what I got (so again, that's on me). Overall, I did really appreciate the space and service and I did rebook another appointment (and I plan on adding on an eyebrow gloss as well). I do appreciate the shop not using aggressive products to achieve their results and overall it was a good experience. I also think their regular pricing is pretty on par with what I've seen around Austin (but for sure check out Groupon to save a few bucks).

I even came back same day after I noticed the hairs still on my legs when I left, but even after touching up, when I left and saw my legs in the sun, there was so much hair still left, so I still shaved parts of my legs the next day. But overall, I would come back and it is very clear the staff knows aesthetics and skincare here!

I have been to Anna Christina Esthetics for a microdermabrasion series (groupon purchase) and…read moreeyebrows and had a wonderful experience! She is such a warm and inviting and knowledgeable esthetician- you can tell she truly loves what she does and really puts the effort into learning about your skin and giving it the best treatment possible. I have gotten three microdermabrasion treatments there and I can absolutely notice a difference in my skin! She changes out some of the products she uses each time to address what is going on with your skin at that time- it's very custom and she explains everything that she uses and what it does. I'm currently at work completely barefaced after a treatment there and don't even care because my skin is absolutely glowing. I just had my eyebrows done there today as well and WOOOOOW. Definitely more expensive than an average wax but WORTH it. She must have spent almost a half hour waxing, plucking, combing and trimming every hair for optimal shape. I will definitely be trying out some of her other services!

Where do I even begin? I can't say enough about Jessika. She saved my wedding (more about that…read morelater). When I was planning my wedding, I was back and forth on whether I wanted to get my makeup professionally done or not. I've always been pretty good at doing my own make-up, so I wasn't sure if it was necessary. Who was I kidding?? Getting your makeup done professionally, especially by Jessika, is such a wonderful experience and so worth every penny! I went for the more dramatic look, Jessika made me look like a movie star. I've never felt so pretty. Let me tell you, Jessika has some magic makeup, the makeup she uses last all day! She applied my makeup at 11AM, I walked down the isle (in the rain) at 2PM in the middle of June and through all day wedding festivities it still looked like I had a fresh face of makeup late that night. Two of my bridesmaids got their makeup done and theirs lasted all day as well. Not only is Jessika an amazing makeup artist, she is so sweet and talented in so many other areas. Jessika saved my wedding!!! As we were walking out the door to go to the chapel, my bouquet fell apart. My bouquet looked so bad that there was no way I could use it... Jessika kept me calm and worked a miracle! She put together a beautiful arrangement by using what we could out of my bouquet and pulling some flowers from a few center pieces! How amazing is that? I highly recommend Jessika!
