I've been getting monthly facials from Crystal for a while now and my skin has never looked better. She's very thorough with her extractions and my skin is glowing and fresh after each session. She also helped me build a much simpler skincare routine (compared to the lengthy one I had before) and I've been happy with the products she recommended. If you're interested in getting facials on a regular basis - go to Crystal! Her place is situated inside a hair salon and parking can be found on the street. read more

I was suffering from really bad acne and I have been looking for a facial spot close to my apartment. I started getting a lot of acne once the pandemic hit, and my skin never went back to the way it used to. Although Crystal doesn't have as many reviews as other facial places, she is definitely a keeper! Do NOT expect one of those super high end locations or set ups. This isn't your typical fancy SF facial place. That being said, Crystal will 100% take care of you and your skin. She genuinely cares and actually remembers things about you. I have probably went to get facial from Crystal around 10+ times and there's a reason why I keep coming back. My skin looks better than it did before. She always gives recommendations and will make sure all that gunk is out of your skin. She had to spend extra time with my extractions because my skin was so irritated, acne filled and my skin barrier was not at its best. Disclaimer that extractions HURT but I know she is taking all that gunk out. She will find things that you didn't even know you had to help your skin not be congested. My face usually isn't as cute the next few days after extractions, but man. You can tell the difference after that time period. My skin is actually smooth now with a few pimples. Hyperpigmentation is so much better. I haven't felt this confident with my skin in over a year and it's all thanks to Crystal. I love the massages she gives and she's just such a sweet woman. She gives me text reminders about my appointments and I will continue coming back to her! read more

Crystal is a professional and I trust her with her craft. I've done 3 sessions and will continue to see her. The space is quaint. She will clear your pores read more

I was referred to Crystal through my friend Steph as she had mentioned she gets a facial from someone she really likes. Since I needed to prep my face for my upcoming wedding, I bought the package with Crystal that covered 10 facials that you can share with your friends and family. For your first facial, Crystal takes the time to explain each step of the facial process and the reason she is doing it. Depending on your skin condition, your facial may not always be the same as she will tailor it to your skin needs. You can also opt for a massage during down time (hand and shoulder massage for females and a head massage for males). The extractions can get painful but as the saying goes, "No pain, no gain." Crystal will remove all your makeup/skincare when you lie down for your facial and reapply skincare and sunscreen. I have seen a major difference on my face since I started getting facials and each time I leave, my face is cleared of those new growing whiteheads that I am not even aware of. I definitely recommend Crystal if you're having any facial concerns. read more

I've been getting facials from Crystal for the past year and a half and my skin looks great. I stopped for a few months a while back cause she was moving her location, and my skin really suffered so I definitely recommend coming consistently. Here's the rundown of a typical facial: I come in, get changed, and lay down. Crystal cleans up my skin, puts on product, does the extractions (hurts but my skin needs it), zaps away the bacteria, and lets me nap for 20 or so minutes with a mask on and during the down times, she give me a neck, shoulder, and hand massage and she also leaves a super moisturizing cream on my hands and covers it with a plastic glove so it deeply moisturizes while I am getting my facial. And afterwards she cleans up my skin, puts on lotion and sunblock and leaves me to change in peace. Afterwards I book the next appointment with Crystal and am left feeling clean and well rested. Without Crystal, my skin would look so sad. read more

I've been with Crystal since 2015 when she was in her old Saloon until she moved to the new place in San bruno. The place is really comfortable and cozy with a great interior. She is really knowledgeable about any best treatments for your skin and also she gives me some recommendations for my daily skin care. I feel my skin has been so much better since Crystal become my skincare specialist. Thank you read more

As a long time customer, Crystal has the game changer in my life since moving to San Francisco. She knows my skin (use to be very oily) and keeps it healthy. I can't express how I've gone from not knowing what a facial was to making it a part of my monthly regiment. No one wants a breakout in front of a client or a big meeting. Crystal makes sure I'm looking and feeling great. Also I'm happy she went independent because she does a fantastic job. #supportsmallbusinesses read more

5 STAR! I've been seeing Crystal for my facial since 2015!! Her facial is the best. Before her, I've tried facial service at different locations in San Francisco. No ONE can compete with her. Every time I have pimple or whitehead that is hard to extract, she is able to handle it well. After the extraction, the redness goes away very quickly without infection. The facial include cleaning, steam, extraction, exfoliate, moisturizer, mask, and massage! I love Crystal's massage a lot. It's very worth it. Strongly recommend. read more

I will definitely be coming back! First off, my skin feels as smooth as a baby right now. I felt like she really gave me the works and my face is better for it now. I really appreciate the frank and caring nature of Crystal. She checked in on me a lot and told me when something would hurt. I really appreciate how she encouraged questions and I ultimately got some really great self care tips. It was very relaxing too. Definitely would recommend to friends and family! read more

I've been going to Crystal for facial skin care for a while now and will continue to go for maintenance. I first came to Crystal with really bad acne and after jsut one session, I saw improvement. It is definitely worth going to her as not only does she take care of your skin, but she is very kind and friendly. She knows how to take care of my skin and makes sure to do only what is necessary. I definitely recommend Crystal if you have very stubborn acne or if you just want to maintain your skin. read more

Crystal is amazing. I've been going to her steadily for almost 6 years. She cares so much about my skin: Maybe more than I do! She is super detail oriented, works harder than anyone, and really knows skin. You can ask her all the things, she's flexible with schedule and this is a great location: You can always find parking and it's close to the city. I look 10-15 years younger than my real age and people are constantly asking me who my aesthetician is. You'll love Crystal. She does it all. Do yourself a favor and go to her!!! Her prices are a steal for the level of experience you get. read more

My husband has been receiving facials from Crystal over ten years and I was introduced to her and been with her for 5 years. We are so happy she went on her own! She has a cozy atmosphere and the treatment is the best we've ever had and that's why we continue to follow her. If you want to invest in your skin, Crystal is the person who can do the job!!! read more

I was introduced to Crystal in 2018 from my friend Wendy. She had been with going to Crystal for 4-5 years. So when she told me to try her out, I was skeptical. But I trusted my friend's judgement and went to Crystal. I hadn't had a facial in over 20 years. Well, my life changed once I went to her. She provides excellent service. I left feeling so pampered and relaxed with my face feeling plump and soft. I enjoyed it so much I purchased a package of 10 treatments. I thoroughly enjoyed her so much that I told all my girlfriends about what a an exceptional experience you leave with Crystal's magic touch. read more

I've been getting facials from Crystal for a few years now. I followed her from her previous salon to her new place in San Bruno. Although it's not very big, it's comfortable and cozy, the decor is also nice. Crystal is extremely knowledgeable, customizes your facial based on your skin every single time. I have gotten a variety of treatments, including microdermabrasion, enzyme mask, collagen mask etc. My skin has gotten so much better since coming to her. I have gotten facials in a number of places, and none of them can compare to her expertise and customer service. read more

I've been a loyal client of Crystal since 2013 and recommend her highly, not only for the best facial experience you can get for a very reasonable price, but knowing that I am in good hands with her expertise and knowledge on skincare. Crystal prides herself in using quality products on her clients (doesn't put anything on you that she wouldn't use on herself). Her services are clinical quality, she does an analysis of your skin at each visit and adjust your facial accordingly; e.g., outbreak, dryness, etc. Her studio has a comfortable atmosphere, nicely furnished, very private, clean & quiet. Plenty of street parking. read more

Crystal is fantastic! I've been seeing her for multiple years now. She's really detail oriented and will take the time to extract all my clogged pores. She cares a lot about your skin and uses high quality products like Shiseido and other K beauty products. Crystal is very experienced and I trust her with any skin issues that I have. Her prices are affordable and she's just super friendly to talk to. read more

Crystal is amazing! I drive down from San Francisco to see her. Excellent facials, hair removal and great eyebrow shaping. She really takes the time to listen to what you want and is very affordable! Just delightful experience. read more

Crystal has been my facialist since 2011 and my complexion and skin texture have seen a world of difference. I used to get occasional adult acne and sometimes scaly dry patches when the weather would change. So I had to figure out how to treat excess sebum and dry skin. After consistently getting monthly facials with Crystal, my complexion is glowing, my skin texture is soft and plump, and haven't seen a dry patch in years. She definitely knows what she's doing. Her extractions can be a bit painful, but I see it as a small sacrifice to avoid getting a full blown pimple like I used to get. And her facial massage technique is the best! If you're looking for a way to invest in your face skin health, Crystal is THE woman to help you. read more
