As a guy one never takes skin care seriously, but it's just as important as an exercise routine. I finally caved after a couple of my girl friends told me about Nicole at Local Beaute. They had seen her for hydrafacials and even I noticed the glow and results after, to say they looked amazing is an understatement. I tagged along with one of my friends on their next visit. Let me tell you best decision I've ever made, on my new quest for better looking healthy skin. Nicole is professional, knowledgeable, and explained the process step by step as she did it. She answered all the questions I had and was even able to recommend a few of the products she carries in order to maintain my skin looking great. I am 100% satisfied and looking forward to my next treatment. Promise you'll leave her suite with an extra bounce in your step. Thank you Local Beaute! read more

I found Local Beaute and Nicole a couple of years ago and I can't be happier with my experience! My skin is nice, glowing, and literally has ZERO aging signs and all this is because of Nicole. If you don't want to go down Botox/filler route but rather want to maintain and improve your skin naturally and without invasions then Local Beaute is your place.

(Just as an FYI this review has never been solicited by the business!) read more

I just experienced my first spray tan ever. I loved it. This was an airbrush spray tan done by Nicole not a booth spray. It was a really fast service and saw pretty good results instantly. What I loved about it was, that it didn't smell bad at all, it dried pretty quickly, and great color without being orange. I know that's the burning question in your mind. No orange tan here. My tan looks really natural. That nice, Hawaiian, tropical tan. I should know I'm from Hawaii. This is just a great alternative and safer way to have that sun tanned glow. I live in dresses and shorts and I love my legs to have some color. I just feel better with a tan. I can't wait to experience the other services Nicole at Local Beauté has to offer. read more

Went to Nicole's open house today and loved her office. It was just what I was looking for. Excited to book a hydro facial soon. I've been looking around for someone I could trust and after meeting Nicole I feel like I will be in good hands. Thanks for the open house today! read more

From start to finish Nicole was a true professional. Yet what is great about her is the flair she adds to everything she does. I went to see her in her new spot in Santa Monica which is right next to awesome restaurants and shopping! It is in an awesome building (Salon Republic) filled with others that do hair & nails so if you want it to be you can use this location as your one stop shop for all your beauty needs. But Nicole is worth your only stop! I did a HydraFacial and she personalized it for my skincare needs throughout the entire experience. I felt like she understood my needs, checked in with me on my comfort level, and also explained as she went (my request as if you chose to not that's fine too). Nicole not only has the latest equipment she also does waxing & spray tanning; which I plan to try out next time. Her space is modern & stylish with clean black & white accents. Nicole herself is very bubbly, sweet, and knowledgeable. What I also love is that it is not often that you go to a Spa and it is only about you! You usually are waiting to check in, waiting for your service provider, it is crowded...not with Nicole. She blocks the time just for you. And if you like a refreshing beverage or a hot drink she will provide that too! Making the appointment is simple and so is parking. Parking is in the structure right next door and the first 90 minutes are free. If you are looking for an experience that is only about you...then you will be so happy you found Nicole! read more

Local Beaute - The outside of the main building. - Skin Care Near Me

I had the pleasure of visiting Nicole at Local Beaute today and am so pleased with the services I received. She gave me a hydrafacial treatment, in conjunction with an all organic skin care line which left my face feeling so soft and supple! Nicole is not only super professional, she really knows her craft. I'm literally glowing! After my facial she gave me a custom spray tan. Let me just say, my tan looks so beautiful, natural (not orange at all) and even. Her location is so cute and comfortable. Perfectly private and close to everything! The beach & 3rd street promenade. read more

I loved the treatment, shocked at the difference after my first time. But when I saw my daughter the next day and she said "Mom are you wearing makeup". That was so great. Highly reccomend Nicole. read more

Holy GLOW. I've heard about the hydrafacial for some time now so I took to yelp to find an esthetician. Sifted through the yelp reviews and found Nicole. I loved the aesthetic of her business so I went ahead and made an appointment. To say I walked out glowing was an understatement, I went to get lunch after my appointment and got so many compliments on my skin! My face looks poreless, I can't wait to see what it looks like in the following days as the hydrafacials product stays in your skin for about 12 days. Nicole is bubbly, welcoming and informative. She took the time to break down the process to me and what she was doing to my skin during my facial, which I loved. Not to mention her prices are reasonable so skip the chain mediaspas/ chain spas and book with an amazing small business owner! Your skin will thank you! Im looking forward to my next facial with Nicole :) read more

I had a few days off of work so I decided to treat myself to my first hydrafacial with Nicole, and I could not be happier with the results! My skin looks and feels amazing and Nicole did such a good job with the entire process. Her studio is beautiful, relaxing, and spa-like. I love her commitment to eco-friendly and cruelty free products as well. She is such a sweetheart and made the whole experience great. As a bonus she is really good at extractions without using any scary metal tools!!! I highly recommend Local Beaute!!! :) thank you Nicole!!! read more

Nicole is sweet, bubbly and super knowledgeable about skincare. I purchased a Glo-Dream facial on Gilt City, and she delivered! Just as she said, 3 days later, my skin found the post-facial sweet spot. So much softer, brighter, tighter, clearer and rejuvenated, thanks to Nicole's stellar work. I'll be back! read more

Nicole is sooooo awesome!!! She just did my first spray tan in a long time and it turned out amazing! I'm always a little nervous to get spray tanned by someone because of course I don't want to turn orange or have my skin react weirdly, but Nicole thoroughly explained everything to me and how things work etc etc. I did an extra hydrating spray tan that prevents your skin from drying and is anti aging. I didn't even know that existed ! I'm also getting so many compliments. Her salon is SO cute and very private and I love that, it made me feel instantly comfortable. It is located in the building labeled "Salon Republic" in case you get confused. Parking is super easy, there is a giant public lot RIGHT next door to salon republic. I'm so happy I finally found a spray tan person I can trust!!! read more

Went in for the Hydrafacial and it was amazing. Nicole was very sweet and did an excellent job. Looking forward to my next facial!

I can't sing Nicole's praises enough! She always makes my skin glow and gives great tips for at-home care. And she is such a lovely and thoughtful person, and really cares about each of her clients. Always such an enjoyable experience getting my monthly facial with her! I can't wait to go back when things open up again. read more

I absolutely love Nicole! She's such a gem and always cheers up my day! She's very professional and makes me feel comfortable in my own skin! I have been coming in for spray tans and love my color!

Definitely coming back for my facials and summer glow! Also structure parking is very close and 90 minutes free! Plus you get a gorgeous view of the beach. read more

The hydra facial treatment I received from Nicole was absolutely second to none. The best facial I've ever had! My skin is glowing and refreshed. The space was immaculate, and Nicole explained every product she used and its benefits. Can't wait to come again! read more

So, it was my first time visiting this newly established studio, on the recommendation of a friend. The studio itself is really simply and tastefully decorated, in black and white, which to me felt very professional and very hygienic. I am not normally someone to pamper myself, and I was quite hesitant as I don't normally do much of a skin care regimen, however, when I arrived, Nicole was so friendly and welcoming and made me feel very comfortable. After discussing what would be a good introduction to me starting to pay attention to my skin, we decided that a 30 minute hydro facial with a 7 1/2 percent peel would be ideal. During the whole procedure, Nicole was asking how I was doing, any tingling/burning, of which there was none, all while explaining every step of the process. After the process was done, I looked at my skin and all I can say is WOWZER!!! I looked so healthy and vibrant!! I was amazed at the immediate result. In my opinion she is a master of her craft and I would not hesitate to send anyone here and be pampered - trust me, you will feel like a new person! read more

What can I say. I'm hooked! I loved my facial with Nicole. She was great from beginning to end. She has an amazing touch and her skin care knowledge was top notch. I asked for anti aging and had no qualms about add ons. I needed results and I got them!! She created the perfect combo. Starting with a nice cleanse and exfoliation to get started and followed up with a Hydra Facial. My skin looks like a million dollars. I guess that's why they call Hydra facials the red carpet facial. After that she recommended some products that would help with keeping my skin in check and I quickly obliged. Can't get results if you aren't doing the home care. My skin still looks and feels fantastic three days later. Thank you Nicole! I will definitely be back! read more

Such a great facial with Nicole today - she is SO sweet and went the extra mile to make sure I had an enjoyable experience, but also saw results! Super cute little salon in an intimate setting - great new equipment and very clean. Thank you Nicole! read more

I had a hydra facial with Nicole in her brand new skin care spa. Her attention to detail, my skin and the results I expected were her first priority. it was the best facial! My skin is glowing! I can't wait to return and receive many other treatments! (spray tan, chemical peels and waxing!!!) The dos itself is beautifully decorated and so comfy!!! read more

I've had several services done by Nicole from facials to spray tan. She is very professional and makes me feel completely comfortable. I always visit just for relaxation but being the professional she is,she takes one look at my skin and knows what type of personalized treatment my skin needs at each visit. I ALWAYS leave feeling like I'm glowing! read more

I absolutely loved my hydrafacial and lash lift with Nicole. I found Nicole's studio Local Beaute through Gilt City and contacted her to set up an appointment. Nicole is super approachable and obtaining an appointment with her was very easy. She worked with me on scheduling and answered all my questions as I had never done a hydrafacial before. She took really great care of me while I was in her studio, and explained every step of the facial process. She is an absolute delight to talk to, and I felt so comfortable and welcomed in her presence. Her prices are very fair relative to other salons offering the same services. There is free 90 minute parking right next door. Overall, I was very happy with my services and time spent with Nicole. Totally worth the 2 hour drive to Santa Monica. read more

I decided to try a Hydra Facial at Locale Beaute and I am so happy I did. From the moment I arrived Nicole was warm, welcoming and very knowledgable. Nicole's treatment room was very clean, organized and so cute. Hydra Facials are the new "it" facial, and Local Beaute offers them for a great price. During the treatment I was relaxed and enjoyed the way my skin was feeling. My skin has not stopped glowing since my treatment and I even went home with a great organic product. I have already booked my next appointment and will be bringing my daughter for an organic spray tan. I am so happy I found someone to take care of my skin!! Local Beaute is a must try. read more
