This is a darling day spa in the heart of downtown Carlsbad. When I first walked by I didn't know…read morethey did skincare & waxing; I thought it was just a cute boutique...when some coworkers surprised me with a gift card, I was so excited! I booked a bikini wax and did not state a preference for the technician. Riley ended up doing my Brazilian and she was excellent! She talked to me throughout to distract me from the pain, but honestly it was not that painful. I was surprised that my skin was not super red afterward. She offered me a rosewater wipe to use prior the waxing and the treatment room was clean. She did a thorough job and used an oil by the brand Fur to finish, and I decided to purchase the travel rollerball, which totally helped eliminate any ingrown hairs or red bumps that were trying to come out. I kept using the rollerball for weeks after, and no ingrowns! I shopped around the boutique after my treatment and was astounded at the reasonable prices on the super cute clothes, jewelry, and other accessories and fun things in the shop. I left with a dress, a couple cute tops, a bracelet and earrings by Scout (love that brand), and a travel candle, plus the Fur rollerball. I believe the Brazilian bikini wax was $65, and I left a nice tip and walked away with fun new stuff without spending a ton over my gift card amount of $115. Side note--the toilet would not flush when I used their restroom, and let them know, so they shut it down for customer use while I was there. I think it's an older building and perhaps sensitive plumbing. This did not affect my experience in any way. Overall I recommend Riley and this awesome little boutique if you live near the Carlsbad area or are visiting!

I was able to view my scalp on the screen. Initially it had a lot of buildup and irritation. The head spa treatment was customized based on what they saw. I received the treatment in a private room.

Last time when I came here, my mom also got the head spa treatment. She was really surprised when she saw the difference in how her scalp looked after the cosmetologist finished her treatment My facial was also excellent. My skin felt smoother and had a nice glow following the hydrodiamond treatment. I've been to Ocean Glow Spa a few times now and I'm always impressed with the individual attention that I get.

Their skin care methods definitely benefit skin health and are so relaxing.
