David was an absolute gem and a treasure to work with! I had issues with my flight into Palm Springs so I had to reschedule a few times and he worked to accommodate my unpredictable schedule- on a Sunday! I received a waxing and he was incredibly personable and made me feel comfortable the whole time. In addition, he meticulously made sure his work was completed and he did a phenomenal job. Most importantly, I believe his rates are very reasonable. I would highly recommend Desert Esthetica to anyone needing a reliable, highly-skilled and professional aesthetician. read more

This was my first pedicure and it was so much better than I anticipated. I believe that my great experience was completely due to the skills and professionalism of David. He was very engaging and aware of my nervousness and he ensured I was comfortable and understood what to expect with each part of the treatment. His location is ideal, was really easy to find and there was plenty of parking spots. I wished I lived here so I could be a regular patron. I was a very happy customer! read more

David Gerard is remarkable! I had my first appointment on April 7th. He performed a Refining facial and The Ultimate Firming Facial. My face has never felt better and it was so relaxing. I was able to see a difference right away. I also trusted David completely. He is a gentle and kind man and has magic hands. I highly recommend his treatments. read more
