extraordinary custom peel, Malasma be gone

by ubaxter at Citysearch

I have been going to Peace of Mind skin care for 8+ years now. I originally came in for treatment for severe chemical burns to my face that I received from products prescribed by a Bev Hills esthetician. Not only do I have no scarring from the burn (I have dark skin and hyper pigment) but as an added bonus, I have no wrinkles and wonderful texture.

I am also prone to cystic acne & have pretty severe Malasma and I must tell you, there are barely any signs of any of it now.

Wendei knows skin. Her custom peels & facials are phenomenal. Wendei is driven to always be on lookout for the newest, latest and greatest, healthiest products. She tries everything first, so that she can give you firsthand knowledge of the product and service she is providing. I am 45 years old and frequently am told I look 10+ years younger. I have Wendei to thank for that. I can't recommend Wendei enough. She and her handpicked team are exceptional.

Best Facial I've Ever Received

by eleri646 at Citysearch

I've been to a ton of fancy-schmancy spas for facials ... I always walk away thinking, I think they just did something very bad to my skin. After reading reviews on here for Peace of Mind, I scheduled a facial with Angela.

She was amazing. First of all, you fill out a three page document (it's not overwhelming though) on your skin type, problems, goals, etc. This was a first for me. I was thinking "finally!" ... then she answered all my questions and explained in detail (a lot of which I know I didn't retain at all) about the different "stuff" that's good for my particular problems/goals (because, you know, she actually looked at the paper I filled out). The facial was amazing and after I expressed interest in their products she walked me through all the things she recommended based on what she saw that day in working on me, once again answering all questions. Angela was incredibly knowledgeable and really knew what she was talking about. I was very impressed and can't wait to schedule my next facial.

• Pros: They really take the time to get to know your skin
• Cons: Can't think of any

Best Facial ever!

by userg55 at Citysearch

I've been battling with breakouts for too long. Made an appointment with Wendei and was able to get in on the same day I called! She was so helpful - listed to everything I'd been doing and gave me recommendations based on my needs. Noticed results right after it was over! I've been seeing a dermatologist for over a year and got more out of one session with Wendei than all of that! Can't wait to go back!

• Pros: incredibly knowledgable, terrific results, tailored to you!
• Cons: nothing!

One stop shopping: amazing facials, exceptional airbrush tan

by CSMobileUser4 at Citysearch

I've been to all the big name spas and have had good, bad and okay experiences. Peace of Mind is in a whole different league. It's an adorable little space across from the Studio City library. I can't believe they've been there for 11 years! My first appointment was for a facial. While my skin is normally pretty clear, I'd been breaking out and also wanted to know what I should be doing as far as anti-aging. Susan was my esthetician and gave me an amazing facial, managing to extract every little blackhead while I zoned out listening to Sirius satellite radio. Much better than Enya or whale music! After the facial, Susan went over an "action plan" to get my skin looking its best. She's a great advertisement for her services because her skin is perfect. She looks 10 years younger than she is! I ended up buying a cleanser and sunscreen and Susan gave me samples of a few other products she recommended. I love what I bought and plan to work my way up to using only Glymed products. She also did a quick eyebrow cleanup at no charge. I have since gone back for Brazilian waxing and airbrush tanning. I have never gotten so many compliments! And it's not "Wow, great fake bake" and the eyebrow shaping she did is subtle, but manages to make my eyes look bigger and my cheekbones higher. I could rave about this place all day. Run, don't walk to Peace of Mind. The prices are very reasonable (and there are coupons on Citysearch) and Susan has been extremely accommodating of my insane schedule, even seeing me at 8:30 pm for a facial! All of my friends who've taken my advice have been just as thrilled with the very professional, but very personal way they conduct their business. Oh, and the waxing - NO DOUBLE DIPPING!! I've been to Wax Poetic and had my brows done by the owner, Kerry. She didn't even change the paper on the table! And she used a stick that already had wax on it from her last customer! I don't need any parasites with my waxing, thank you. This place is just first rate.
