The place to go for a facial

by paspalis11 at Citysearch

just had waxing and a great facial. have been coming to Ruth's for over 12 years now, and love the new location!! have tried other places for waxing closer to my house, but always end up coming back to ruth's cuz they do it best there. occasionally have a facial, which comes with head and neck massage, and hands and feet treatment as well; calling it a 'facial' doesn't really do the treatment justice!.

• Pros: best skin treatment place in town

Lacto is Magic!

by Riza at Citysearch

Dear Ruth,

I am writing you regarding your lacto and camphor products. I have been a loyal customer of yours (as are my sisters) for many years (since the 90's). I routinely get facials but since I have been using the lacto - every night and the camphor 2 times a day, I rarely need to get facials. I still go for the pampering, but my skin no longer requires facials for maintenance. My complexion has never been clearer since using the two products together regularly. I was very reluctant because of the price, but now it is the only cream I can use to keep my complexion clear. Over all, it saves me money because I do not get facials as often as I did in the past. I always buy the big container since it is the same price as a facial but it lasts for months.

I spent the winter in Kloosters, Switzerland usually out skiing or watching my son ski at the ski school and I never had a single dry spot on my face. My son got terrible wind burn from skiing without a ski mask and I used the lacto on his face and literally 2 days later, his face was clear and did not have a single dry patch.

My son suffers from eczema as do I, and when we have a break out, I immediately use the lacto and with in 1 to 2 days the burning, itchy dryness goes away. I am very happy with the product. It is gentle enough to use on my 5 year old.

I wanted to also mention that I was at your salon today and I picked-up several bottles of camphor for friends and myself and I tried to buy your avocado lotion for gifts but you were out. I left my # with the lady (I forgot who helped me) and she called me a couple of hours later and told me she would order the lotion for me. I am very happy with the services you provide and the kindness of all the girls who help me. I really appreciated the fast help.

Sincerely, Riza

GREAT PLACE for BEAUTY PAMPERING.

by karmadog88 at Citysearch

I have been a client for over 5 years! One of the most relaxing places to visit. Not only are you offered all the comforts you would want in a spa but also the entire staff caters to your needs and more. You walk in and it feels like you are on a cloud...you leave feeling like a star. I recommend Ruths Skin Care to everyone I know!

• Pros: Relaxing atmosphere, great staff

Truly painless Brazilian wax and CANNOT beat the price! $25!

by danaweller09 at Citysearch

What made it unique or special?hey have a larger new location but you can still park for FREE across the street behind Naim Bros. carpet store (NW corner of melrose x la cienega.) ruth is sweet and personable and gave me the quickest, most comfortable brazilian i've ever had, all the while another aesthetician massaged my shoulders. i never knew it was possible for such a usually feared experience to be relaxing. unfortunately she was busy (no surprise) or i would've followed up with a facial by Ina who treats jennifer aniston, jennifer connelly, rachel hunter, jeremy piven (they do men too!) regularly. this was my first visit here and i will definintely be back. i've already referred all my friends.

• Pros: staff, service, value, free parking
• Cons: None

Friendly Atmosphere, excellent staff

by s350Caprice at Citysearch

Ruth is the best!!!!!!!!!!!! My girlfriend has been going to her waxing for a long time and she finally convinced me to come in and try some of Ruth's services. As a guy, I was a little hesitant, but I was so glad I did. Ruth never made me awkward or out of place. Actually the whole staff made me feel right at home. I got a massage and a facial. I had never gotten a facial before and I can't belive what a difference it made in my skin. I will definatly be going back. Thanks Ruth! S. Wright

Monica the Massage Master and Vicky the Facial Goddess

by acura9898 at Citysearch

I had my first experience at RSC earlier today and I will defiantly be back. I got an hour and a half relaxing massage with Monica and a facial with Vicky. Wow! When I entered the salon and was immediately welcomed by the staff. Monica led me into a private room complete with relaxing music and a heated massage table. She made sure to ask me exactly how I wanted my massage and performed magnificently. I told her I had back problems and wanted her to concentrate there, and to keep the massage firm. She then proceeded to expertly find every knot and tension area in my back and body and massaged the pain away. She’s very caring and I highly recommend her to anyone. After about an hour, Monica moved onto my legs and feet and Vicky, my esthetician entered without a sound and started administering my facial treatments. After a scalp and face massage, she put on numerous skin treatment products, opened my pores with a warm steam machine and exfoliated my skin. She was very talented as well and my skin looks great. Thanks Citysearch!!

• Pros: atmosphere, friendly staff, elegant yet not pretentious
• Cons: None

OBSESSED

by alexis746 at Citysearch

Hi Ruth!

This is Alexis from Someone Spoil Me. I have been wearing the Caroline Parfum you gave me and my friend is OBSESSED. She does not go on the computer much (I know, hard to believe), so asked me to order a bottle for her. In case I can't come in to pick it up, how much would it be to ship to me in Century City? Please advise.

Thanks! Alexis

• Pros: A great fragrance!
• Cons: Need more bottles!
