I came in for a facial, already telling myself, "You're not gonna relax, you never do." Yeah, well... joke's on me, because five minutes in and I was practically melting into the table. Angela has this calm, soothing voice that could probably convince a tornado to chill out. She was so patient and thoughtful and really took her time to look at my skin, asked questions, and explained what she was doing in a way that didn't sound like a skincare lecture. She even gave me personalized tips and product recs that made sense for MY skin (and not like those "just buy this $300 serum" kind of suggestions). And let me tell you... when I looked in the mirror afterward ... WOW!! My skin was glowing. Like, actually glowing. Soft, hydrated, smooth! I legit caught myself touching my face all day and even in the days after. I haven't seen my skin look this good in forever. Angela's the real deal!! She's patient, knowledgeable, and seriously good at what she does. If you've ever wanted a facial that leaves you looking and feeling like you've been on vacation (minus the plane ticket), book it. Just do it. You'll walk out wondering how your face ever survived without her.

Super disappointed with the service I received and interaction with Mila. I had high hopes because…read morethe Yelp reviews were outstanding, but alas they were also misleading. This review is not to complain, simply to express my experience with Mila at the Face Lounge using a Groupon for a microdermabrasion treatment. Setting up the appointment was simple over the phone. When I had to cancel last minute due to work, she was understanding and flexible with rescheduling another appointment. The new location is in a residential area in Kaneohe. It's easy to miss, but gps does a fine job of getting you there. When I first met Mila she was pleasant, but seemed in a rush. Understandable as I was 5 minutes late due to not being able to find the house. I'll admit the setup in the bedroom upstairs was kind of odd...I felt weird being in a person's home. It wasn't very relaxing and the bed faced directly across a bright window that was pretty blinding as it didn't have any shades. I guess I'm just used to getting facial treatments in a spa-like environment. We started the microdermabrasion, it was my first time, she told me it would feel like sandpaper across my skin. I'd say my skin isn't that sensitive, it's more on the normal side - but wow, did it hurt in certain areas like under my eyes and cheeks...it started to burn by the third time she went over my face. Afterwards she began extractions on my face without steaming and opening my pores. That worried me. It also hurt like heck! She made a comment about how I didn't drink enough water thus dehydrating my skin and making it difficult for her because my skin "just wouldn't give". Hmm maybe it's because my pores aren't opened up?? Shame comment #1. Then she noticed bumps on my skin (milia), which I was conscious about to begin with. I have a about 5 little ones on my cheek. She said, "That's really bad, it's because of improper product usage. You're too young to have that you NEED to go to a dermatologist." Shame #2. At this point I just felt real crappy about my skin...about my face in general, which is so opposite from other experiences with previous facials I've gotten. I usually get comments about how good my skin looks! Then she put on a mask, it immediately started burning my whole face!! On fire!! She didn't believe me at first, but I was like, "This doesn't feel right is this supposed to feel like this?!" So with rough force she wiped it off with a wet rag and that HURT so badly. I was cringing with pain trying to keep quiet, not scream, and be polite. She proceeded with 2 more masks that also burned my face. Wow. Then of course ended with a shame #3 comment about how sensitive my skin was. In the end, I was rushed out because another client had arrived and I left feeling bummed out about the state of my skin with no solutions. Btw, the burning and redness on my face lasted for the next two days.

You've probably heard of the Midas Touch, but what about MILA'S Touch? Mila of Skinpure Beauty Bar…read moreturns everything she touches in to GOLD! I am so grateful to Groupon for introducing me to Mila & Skinpure Beauty Bar, initially for eyebrow waxing & shaping (see my previous review) and she also specializes in providing a comprehensive line of skin care treatments. So I recently had an opportunity to experience one of Mila's ultra RELAXING clinical facial cleanses, which I found so amazing. I couldn't resist letting my fellow Yelpers know that if you're a discriminating customer seeking a skilled, caring, gentle, conscientious, knowledgeable and very friendly esthetician to do wonders on your skin & face, look no further than Mila at Skinpure Beauty Bar, where for the service I received, the distinction is virtually pain-free extractions. You would find it impossible to not drift off to a state of nirvana under the care of Mila, who in my opinion gives the most soothing neck, arm and hand massages. Mila uses only high quality European products and you'll have to experience why her facial is not typical. I realized this when the usual order of cleansing, exfoliation, steam therapy, extractions, peel, mask & hydration was slightly DIFFERENT, and folks there is a reason. I won't give away her trade secret, you'll have to experience it, or ask her yourself! I was thrilled to know she offers her many services in packages and I am so looking forward to experiencing facials regularly at Skinpure Beauty Bar. Thank you, Mila, you are the best!

I was really excited to return. My second visit did not feel the same. I wasn't asked about how I felt about my last treatment, which I would've appreciated since it was still only my second time and since my previous adjustment was a bit off the mark. I did have to take the initiative to clarify a few things before my treatment but it still felt very rushed and a little cold. On top of that, at the end, the POS asks if you'd like to add a tip, which was a bit of a turn off considering it is a clinic, rather than a hair salon. I was hoping this would be my regular place but I'm not sure how excited I am to return after this most recent visit.

We booked two 90 minute massages with a 15 minute steam ahead of the massage. When we arrived they had us take off our shoes and gave us sandals to use, we also selected scents for the rooms and our tea preference. From there they showed us our rooms and had us change into robes before heading into the steam. While the space is too small for couples massages, we were able to go in the steam together and after we went into a room to drink our water/tea and relax ahead of the massage. Once they took us into the room the music was relaxing and they did a great job to ask where to focus and check in to make sure the pressure wasn't too much/too little. I had A LOT of tension in my back. While she was working on some problem areas I asked some questions about why it might be so tense/painful and it definitely was a mix of working out the pain to feel relief. The big takeaway was that I shouldn't go years between massages. After the massage we went back to the relaxation room and drank more water before heading out to pay. I felt so relaxed after the massage and would definitely recommend this business to others.

We arrived before our appointment time and filled out their forms. We each had our own room/skin care specialist. The comfortable spa table is prepped with a little steamer to get your face ready for treatment. The HydraFacial machine was explained to me. She also stated that if the process felt uncomfortable, I could alert her to adjust the pressure. The procedure helped to clean, exfoliate, and remove impurities from my skin. She then applied a serum of antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acid. The final application was sunscreen. While the untrained eye, probably couldn't SEE a difference after the HydraFacial, I could certainly FEEL the difference. Clean, fresh, and super rejuvenated! As a follow up, I came in for the Scultural Face Lift with Buccal Massage. This included lymphatic drainage (behind your ears) and microcirculation of my shoulders, neck, and jaw area. If you've never had a massage inside your mouth, try it! This helps to relax jaw muscles and many TMJ patients use this. Honey, you are worth it! Whether a special occasion or just because. They have many options in their menu of services. They also sell products to compliment all your skin care needs. God blessed you with the skin you're in, this is a great way to maintain it :)

There is a free parking lot out front, making it super convenient! The pedicure was actually pretty quick, I think we were in and out in around 30 minutes. There were just a few things that made it more of an OK experience for me. First thing is that they have a sign to "request to see the price menu". It's not like the pedicure was extremely expensive or anything, I just think that folks should be able to know beforehand what the service they are receiving costs. The other thing is that they had asked multiple times if we wanted to get manicures. I didn't mind the first time, but after declining multiple times it got awkward.
