Her attention to details and nurturing care makes each session feel like a rebirth. Her studio is also impeccable. Gorgeous plants and sunlight surround you while you are in complete peace. I've been to numerous estheticians in the past and Luminous Skincare is by far the absolute BEST skincare studio. I also really like how the extractions aren't painful. She's extremely careful and doesn't use force. My skin craves her care every month!

I've been coming here for awhile and usually love my experience so I'm pretty bummed about this-…read moreunfortunately, a product that's not pregnancy safe was used on me (Strawberry Rhubarb Masque) - even though I made it clear I was pregnant and asked if it was a pregnancy safe product in advance and mentioned that some products from that line aren't considered pregnancy safe. I wish this would have been double checked prior to being used on me because even if it's probably fine only happening once and (hopefully) it wasn't in a high dosage.. but was unable to confirm this - it still caused me immense anxiety that I really wish was avoided. I washed it off and emailed my doctor. But I still feel awful and wish more precaution was taken. This was my first facial since becoming pregnant (almost 27 weeks now) and I was really looking forward to it and thought I'd be safe here. Unfortunately I didn't feel safe and I wish I never came now. They don't have pregnancy pillows to accommodate pregnant individuals either. I'd go elsewhere if you're expecting but otherwise they usually do a great job... pretty disappointed this happened to me though /:

Yes, back facials are a thing and she does a fantastic job! For facials, I highly recommend the advance glow and lift. It cleanses/smoothens out your skin, reduces inflammation, removes pimples/dead skin, and slims down your face (lymphatic drainage). I also recommend the back facial to clean and remove deadskin/pimples to maintain that healthy skincare routine.

Afterward my skin was truly glowing. I'm glad I was able to take that time for myself yes.... but it wouldn't have been the same if I went to someone else. I'm so GRATEFUL Rachel was my girl.

Without a doubt Dakota is the best esthetician I know. I'm proud to have known her before she…read morestarted The Clean Esthetics, and to have seen her build this new successful business on her own. I used to see Dakota for regular sugaring when she worked at her previous employer in Greenlake, and before I left to live abroad. I always noticed that with her sugaring "technique" (maybe it was her quickness? or maybe magic?) it seemed to hurt less than with other estheticians I'd been to, and it helped that we always chatted throughout the appointments to make it less painful or uncomfortable. Now that I live out of the country I don't see Dakota on a regular basis, but while I was visiting Washington recently for Thanksgiving knew I had to go try a facial at The Clean Esthetics - and it was so worth it! My face was glowing afterwards and my skin felt more nourished than it had before. The space itself is beautiful and clean, and the atmosphere is calming. From now on every time I come to visit Washington I'll be booking an appointment with Dakota :) I would highly recommend a visit to The Clean Esthetics to anyone.

(I was very happy to see improvement after purchasing a new face wash) The massages (head/neck/arms) are amazing as well. If you haven't or are on the fence, I recommend booking.

It probably helps that she's been working on my skin for 14 years, but her instincts on which products to use when always seems to target my worst areas. I am always amazed by the level of care and dedication she gives in each and every appointment, and she also couldn't be a nicer woman! I've had facials everywhere I've lived, but I've never had such consistent good results over the course of time. I could not recommend her more highly!

I've received so many compliments on my skin since seeing her and following my custom skincare routine. The products she carries are top quality and definitely worth the investment. I've struggled with acne for nearly 20 years so it's been such a relief to have it under control. She's the best esthetician you'll find in the Ballard area, trust

I've been to two other lash lift salons and they can never replicate what Shiori does: other salons have made my lashes fall off or it gets crusty. Whatever Shiori uses for her technique is honestly one of a kind. She's also a badass boss lady: loved her journey of leaving the corporate world to be an independent business owner, an inspiration for many. Give her a try if it's your first time getting a lash lift - she won't disappoint! The process is painless and takes about an hour.
