Val is a lifesaver...Not just for my skin, but for for my entire existence!…read more
My visit started off a little crazy when my Uber dropped me off in what looked like a pretty sketchy neighborhood. I couldn't find the address for the business, so I called Val and she answered right away. I explained to her my situation, and she was in the car on her way to me before I could finish telling her what was going on. She taught me how to drop my location in WhatsApp and she came to scoop me up in no time.
I was a little rattled, but Val very quickly put me at ease and helped me to settle in for some luxurious skin care treatment. After a week of sun and salt and sea, my skin was in need of some TLC before I hopped my flight that evening to head back home.
She took a quick look at my skin, figured out exactly what I needed, customized my treatment, and went to work. The products felt and smelled amazing. I could feel them working in real time. Like every good esthetician, she has an arsenal of Skin Script products that she used to help my skin achieve it's optimal hydration and glow. Now I've got pretty good skin, but when I hopped up off that table, I couldn't believe how healthy and hydrated it looked. Wow!
Now don't tell her I said this, but after I finally made it home (I say "finally" because the airline kept changing my flight information, which prevented me from getting the massage I originally booked with her, as well), I was too tired to wash my face before I went to bed. I woke up the next morning and my skin was still glowing, still hydrated, still incredibly moisturized.
If you're taking an Uber here, be advised that the business does not show up by name, so you will have to type the address. I typed in 1403 Calle Las Palmas, which is the address listed on the website. However, after my appointment, Val told me that the person who used to occupy the spa before her received mail using the address "1413" Calle Las Palmas. I'm not sure where the discrepancy lies, but if you are dropped off in front of a large, shady-looking pink apartment building, you are NOT in the right location... But you're only a few blocks away. The spa is painted a tranquil shade of green, So look for that light green building. But if you get lost, don't panic. Just give Val a call and she will come and get you... Just like she did me.
Val is not only incredible that what she does, but she is also one of the kindest people I've ever met on the island... And that's saying something because there are some really kind people here. Her spa is beautiful and tranquil. Everything is sterile and conspicuously clean. Her services are top notch and competitively priced. And the results were even better than I expected. This was single-handedly the best facial treatment I have ever received.
Do yourself a favor and make skincare treatments at Ocean Pearl Wellness Spa a part of your itinerary when you're visiting Puerto Rico. You deserve it, and your skin will thank you.
