Melissa's facial (the regular, award winning one) was super relaxing, and my skin was glowing afterwards. I was referred by one of the girls at the same hair salon, and I'm so glad I went. She was gentle and I was able to breathe, whereas a lot of times it's hard to breathe during a facial. I was also able to go run errands directly afterwards without feeling self conscious with no makeup on. Additionally, during the facial, while the mask is curing, she gives an excellent hand/arm and foot/calf massage... so make sure to shave! After is over, she's very low pressure and doesn't push product on you, but I had to know more bc of how my face looked and felt. She's super educated about the Epicuren line! Definitely the best facial Ive had in Chicago! read more

I've never been hugely into facials but I had purchased a gift certificate for my mom for one and she raved about it, so there I went. Let me me just say wow! Melissa was incredibly gentle and explained everything she was doing step by step and how it would benefit my dry skin. The products she used smelled incredible and the best part is that she was not pushy at all about buying anything. Her energy and friendly demeanor made the facial such a good experience overall. I'd truly recommend her to anyone and look forward to getting more services done with her. As a quick note- I got the signature facial and at a later date, picked up the glycolic lotion and it's truly awesome for a little gentle exfoliation and lasts forever. read more

Melissa is fantastic, I honestly cannot praise her enough! This was honestly the most amazing facial I have ever had. Not only did my skin look and feel fantastic afterward (it went from dry, uneven and irritated to glowing and plump) but it was also extremely relaxing and included essential oils and a mini massage. Melissa really listened to my concerns and provided product and routine recommendations, which I really appreciated. Unlike other facials which can leave you feeling frustrated with the results and how expensive upkeep products are, all of the products Melissa used are totally affordable and good for your skin! I bought a couple of things to start using and I will definitely be back for another facial soon. read more

Follow up review - Melissa called the next day to make sure I was happy with the service and if I had any questions regarding the facial products I purchased after the facial on 12/19. Great customer service -which unfortunately you do not find with all businesses. Fantastic 1 hour Signature Facial by Melissa at MDT Skincare on 12/19/2017. Very relaxing and my skin never felt or looked so good! Melissa uses great products which feel smooth upon application and enhance the entire experience. This was the best facial I have had in many years and I will return on a monthly basis. read more

I recently got the best facial from Melissa at MTD Skincare. But first look at her skin!!! She knows what she's talking about, and isn't some pushy sales person. She truly is passionate about skincare and puts all her energy in her work.... everyone needs to get a signature MTD facial. FYI I'm in the skincare industry so I'm very particular of anyone touching my skin and I always look into the products they recommend on my skin.... so yeah I'm very pleased with Melissa's wonderful service. I booked another appointment for a peel and I'll gladly share pics before & after. read more

I'm incredibly happy with how my skin looks after seeing Melissa just twice! My face has cleared up so much from the facials, peel and products I've been using. I HIGHLY recommend scheduling an appointment with Melissa if you need help with whiteheads, blackheads, etc. I've had a number of facials and this is by far the best. Melissa is kind, personable and really cares about the improvement of your overall skin health. The experience is relaxing and enjoyable from start to finish -- 5 stars! I'm so looking forward to my next appointment! read more

I am a 59 male and have not been the best at taking care of my skin. I have been lucky with my genetics but do not want my luck to run out....so I am making a change. I went to see Melissa for a consultation and a facial. The facial was soothing and the setting is so tranquil. She also gave me a light message and I did not want our session to end. When I left she gave me an easy to follow skin care system and I immediately saw results! I plan on going back about once a month to look my best for my summer trips! Paul read more

Fantastic facial! Could not have asked for a better service. As someone who struggles with anxiety, Melissa made me feel instantly comfortable. Her office space is in a great location and has a cozy feel. Melissa took amazing care of my skin - it felt like a luxury experience. With Melissa there is zero pressure to purchase products (unlike many places), however, you will want to once you realize how great your skin feels! And, she is gorgeous. Who wouldn't want skin like hers? Go see Melissa! Totally worth it. read more

I have been looking for a new facial person for a while, and when I saw how great Melissa's skin looks I knew I had to make an appointment. It was the best facial I have ever had. My skin was glowing afterward and I love that she doesn't leave the room while the mask is on. The hand and foot massage was so relaxing. She doesn't push products on you, just makes suggestions. She even called me the next day to change my routine after thinking about. Already scheduled my next appointment. read more

My first facial was with Melissa, and let me say it was a one of a kind of experience- I'm already excited for my next one. She was super gentle and very specific and careful to analyze your skin to give you the best end results. My skin is still glowing from my appointment and she even cleared up some acne spots I have been struggling with for years. She's gives a massage during the appointment that is to die for as well! 10/10 would recommend scheduling an appt ASAP! read more

Mellisa is honestly amazing! I've always been really scared to get my eyelashes done but I finally decided to get a lash lift and tint because I absolutely hate applying mascara. Mellisa was so nice and attentive, made sure I was comfortable. It was a completely painless process and my results were way better than expected! I literally can't stop looking at how amazing they look! I 10/10 recommend seeing her. Definitely going to go back and get a facial next. read more

I've already had two facials with Melissa and my third one is booked. She's amazing. Melissa is incredibly good at what she does and you can tell she's highly knowledgeable and can vouch for the products she uses and sells. The extraction, though a bit painful, is very thorough! My face feels incredible after a facial with her. Plus, if you're in the mood to strike up a conversation during your facial, Melissa is great company. I would highly recommend her! read more

Melissa is the BEST! I went to her to get one of the award winning facials and it was by far the best facial i have ever gotten!

So relaxing and so gentle. Melissa was able to extract my under the skin pimples that are cystic while being so gentle I barely felt her and my skin looked so much better afterwards! And she does basically a whole body massage in the process. I LOVED it. Totally recommend. I also love the Epicuren products. They feel wonderful on the skin and the science behind it is so awesome. read more

Wow. My skin was so stressed out until Melissa's magic happened. Her signature facial was ridiculously indulgent and my face is so happy now. The glow is real! Planning on regular visits now and I have never even considered making facials a part of my maintenance schedule. Loved it. read more
