I don't get my nails done often so maybe I'm not as picky as some regulars. 1. They must have updated their nail polish selection since the previous reviewer, because they had a wide variety of colors. 2. This is the only place I've been where the employees not only were fluent in English, but held real conversations with me. 3. My nails look great! Thanks Kayleigh! 4. The woman who owns the place offered to continue the great deal I had from living social for the rest of the summer. Awesome! read more

I'd had persistent acne from my teenage years through to adulthood,..until I came to Mariola. She is very detailed, tried to figure out the reason for my acne, and explains what treatment she's doing and why. She figured out how long after a facial extraction my breakouts would occur next, and when I just scheduled my appointments for 2-3 days before her estimated date, my breakouts cleared up FAST, and stayed clear. Now I just go every 3-6 months (but I only go, not because her treatments aren't effective, but because I travel so much which screws up my internal clock, + changes in weather and sitting in airplanes a lot). Mariola is very patient - even when clients cause her to run late, she still pays full attention to me and gives me the full allotted time. Go to Mariola if you want 100% peace of mind - if I have a breakout, I know that I don't have to suffer for very long, I just have to see Mariola :) read more

What brought me here was a Groupon $25 for a regular $57. Not a bad deal if you ask me. In order to make an appointment, you have to call and see what is available. They are closed on Sundays and Mondays. There were two very nice ladies at the counter when I walked in. A room was prepped for me and it was nicely decorated. Had the Brazilian done. It wasn't really that bad to be honest. I was given some care tips to use when I got home. Much appreciated. Feel like I walked away with a really good deal. I just don't think I can afford the normal rates or else I'd so be back. read more

I've been getting bikini waxes with Kasha for over 2 years and she is just wonderful. She talks to me throughout the appointment, which gets my mind off of what we're doing and prevents me from being all tense. I hardly feel any pain anymore- just a little stinging. Not nearly as bad as I expect it to be. Kasha is also wonderful about helping me with ingrown hairs- I used to get a lot but she explained how to exfoliate correctly and now I don't get them. If I do, she always removes them carefully, and as pain-free as possible. I was hesitant about getting a bikini wax at first because I thought it would be painful and humiliating. But Kasha makes it (almost) fun! read more

This was my first time at this business and I had a Brazilian wax. Kasha was super friendly, timely, she talked to me throughout the process and it was a great distraction from the pain. She initially stated that the wax couldn't be done because I needed to grow my hair out a bit more, but after I told her I'd prefer not to reschedule, she worked with what I had. I really appreciate that! I'm just knocking one star because I agree with one of the other yelpers who left a review here- I was surprised that there were no products or cleaning afterwards? I felt really sticky after. Overall, the whole wax and experience was great and I would recommend. read more

Came to Amazing Face for a facial, Mariola what's my facialist, she greeted me with a down to earth, warm personality. She took me back to a private facial room. The facial was very relaxing and Mariola and I talked about boys and life. It was like visiting an old friend. Felt no pressure and felt very at home. I'm coming back for a collagen facial. read more

I have been going to Mariola for more than ten years and she is amazing! Last Saturday, I had a cleansing facial, brow wax, brow tint and eyelash tint. Definitely worth the drive from Half Moon Bay. Mariola is also the only person I trust with my eyebrows. And to top it all off, she has a wonderful blend of charm and wittiness. read more

Great experience at Amazing Face! Waxing is a painful, though necessary procedure. Kasia has the uncanny ability to draw you into a conversation and distract you long enough to be done with it. Friendly service, and pretty easy to make an appointment for a desired time. read more

I've only ever had eyebrow waxing here but it is absolutely the best I've ever found, and believe me I've tried quite a few places. Mariola actually listens when I ask to keep them full! No pencil thin eyebrows!! THANK YOU. Every single other place makes them too thin and/or messes up the shape. It's soft wax, which is expected since I've only ever seen one person do hard wax for eyebrows. Mariola gives the least painful eyebrow wax ever, and is very careful with the tweezing. She's also very friendly. I live in Santa Cruz but will only go here for my eyebrows so whenever I'm in the area I make sure to stop by. read more

I come here for the facials and I bring my teen for deep-down (read: extractions!) face cleaning, as well. Maryola (owner) and her sister Katya could not be more professional, experienced or hospitable. They even encourage both myself and my teen to come back about a week or so after our facials for complimentary 15-minute "touch-ups" to keep our breakouts at bay. I have had terrible skin all my life and these women know just how to keep me clean and clear. I recommend them. read more

I was a long time fan of Amazing Face for many years up until about a year and half ago. Mariola and her sister Kashia are sweethearts. They really care about their customers. Before I found them, my skin was in a bad shape. Then I started seeing Mariola, she helped to improve my skin to the point that I was happy with it most of the time, but I still had occasional breakouts. I also liked their products and used them for many years. Then a year and half ago, I discovered medical spa, acid peel and Obagi. But I will always be grateful for Amazing Face for helping me all those years. read more

To be honest if I never saw the groupon offer for this hidden treasure I would have never gone here. I went with my sister and we both got a Brazilian wax. Kasia helped us out and she is phenomenal. She helped us relax and talked to us through the whole thing. I haven't had a wax in quite some time so I thought it was going to take awhile to get everything done but it was only 30 minutes. When she told me she was done I double and triple checked everything because I was skeptical that she was able to get everything in such little time. But, she got everything she even waxed some parts of my leg that I seemed to have missed while shaving. I definitely recommend this place to anyone that would like to be handled with care while having work done in a private area of the body. read more

I've had problems with acne since my teens so on my first visit to Amazing Face I had a facial with Nolanne. She did an excellent job but informed me that it would take a few visits to completely clear up my acne. In between those visits I got a little zealous and over-plucked my eyebrows and on the next visit she told me to leave them alone and let them grow back and she would shape them the next time I came in. After my third visit I could really see a big difference in my skin, it had cleared up really well. Nolanne also shaped my eyebrows as they slowly began to grow back in, but she was encouraging about the situation and assured me they'd be almost back to the way they were after a couple more weeks. And after the improvements she made in my skin, I didn't doubt her! I also had an opportunity after one of my visits to get a manicure from her daughter Kaylee who works there too. She was really friendly and seemed good at what she does. After looking over some of the designs she's done, she worked with me to create something with my taste and added some of her own flair. The polish lasted a long time and people at my job complimented me on them often. Amazing Face has a generally good atmosphere with friendly people and great services. I will definitely be back to see them both. Anytime someone compliments me on my skin or nails, I try and owe it all to them! read more

I'm a spa snob...I find that many of the spas, and I've been to many, are far too pretentious for my liking. Not so at Amazing Face. Since I found Amazing Face (over 5 years now), I've not stepped back into another local spa! Their facial and waxing services are top of the line - as illustrated by their many long time repeat customers. Kacia is my aesthetician and I see her every two weeks. Have a complaint - work it out directly with Mariola, the owner. They are 100% about their clientele and will bend over backwards to make you happy - so please don't hestitate to reach out to them. You won't be disappointed! read more

I couldn't wait to write this review..... The service at Amazing Face is impeccable! I have visited this place for several spa services in the past and left very pleased each time. In particular, I would like to highlight my facial experience with Mariola. I've had multiple facials done in the past, but I must say, this one was by far the most relaxing and effective one. Not only is Mariola the kindest soul, but she displays high professional standards, has excellent technique and really cares about your skin. Truth be told, Amazing Face is too good to be advertising through Groupon. I can't wait to see this salon build the clientele it deserves. read more

I brought a bikini wax package from groupon. my first appointment is at 12pm on Wednesday, i followed my phone's google map and i get lost. I ended up on 1111 El Camino Real in Santa Clara instead of Sunnyvale. I called them around 12:15pm to let them know if I still can come for the service or need to reschedule the appointment. They said they have to cancel my appointment and reschedule it to Friday. It's fine with me since it was my mistake using the map. Friday, I was on my way for the appointment and i found out that I have early monthly red light (lady's monthly period). I stopped by at Target store to buy tampon to take care of the mess first, then i called Amazing Face front desk to let them know what is going on. They said there is no excuse and I will redeem the package without reschedule nor provide the service! This is really mean! You are ladies too, would you know and expect exactly what date and time you have period? If not, then how would you expect someone to give you 24 hours cancellation notice? What a mean business. Please be aware of this business! No wonder why when i called them, they forced me to give them a Groupon voucher number! read more

I purchased a Groupon here. Mariola was very nice and personable. However, even with a Groupon, it was very expensive for the service I got. I scheduled a microderm but got a collagen facial instead. Cleansing, steam, sheet mask, and shoulder massage. Between the steam and the sheet mask, she was hardly in the room with me. I use Groupon to find good services at a discount. Unfortunately, this was neither a good service or a discount. read more

I am so happy to have found this place! This was the first time in my life getting a micro-dermabrasion. I met with Mariola who I could tell really enjoyed her work. She was not a high pressure sales person and only wanted what was best for her clients interest and not hers in terms of her making money. She was kind enough to tell me about my lotion from my dermatologist which I showed her I was using, which cause me skin damage. I didn't even realize my location was expired! I highly recommend trying Amazing Face if you're interested in getting a facial treatment. They also offer many other services. Thanks Mariola, it was a pleasure meeting you today! read more

Amazing Face - Skin Care Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

Kasha is AMAZING. I found her through Groupon. I definitely recommend her. I would come back again for sure.

I have been trying to make an appointment to get a facial from Amazing Face for about a week now. I have called various times and left voicemails, no one has contacted me back. I have went to the spa in person, but it was closed before the closing time. Last but not lease, I have texted the (669) 246-1165 number stated on their site to make an appointment. I did get a response from (669) 246-1165 for a brief moment, but they never got back to me after stating they are booked. I am not satisfied with how their business is run. read more

Tried calling them so many time for appointment ..my Groupon is also expired today..they neither call back nor pick call..will never buy groupon for their shop. read more

I am so sad. This place no longer has the person who does eyelash tinting and great extractions, which were its best sells. Scheduling, manicuring+ have always been sub-par, also unimpressed by the waxing. Good luck Amazing Face, hope you can become amazing again! read more

Bad customer service, fitting a 3rd world country. Unprofessional owner. No one picks up a phone. Either their receptionist is on vacation or they stopped having one. Once we came, the owner Mariola was sleeping on the couch in the customer area. What a nice way to welcome your customers. Immediately, she woke up and started picking on my child. We left right away to avoid this unpleasantness. Later, we came to pick up my wife after services. Mariola was sleeping on the couch again. She proceeded to pick on my child again, insinuating that we cannot touch a customer service desk because we will leave fingerprints?! She was on us like a hawk, picking and picking. I've decided to leave with my child, but she held the door open and continued speaking offensively. I eventually exclaimed that this type of customer service is not appropriate in the US. She told me to shut up and accused me of being a bad father. Literally, she was screaming rude things at me. Apparently, this owner thinks that disrespecting customers is the right way to get business. I work in the customer service. We always go an extra mile to treat our customers right and this creates repeat business and an atmosphere of mutual respect. This place is a direct opposite of what a customer service should be. read more

It's about time I leave a review. I've been going to Kasha for Brazilians for about a year and a half now and she is AMAZING!!! She makes the entire experience so positive and and painless as it can be. We always have great conversations and I always look forward to seeing her again. Highly recommend her and Amazing Face! read more

My mom and I both received a groupon for a full spa day for Amazing Face as a thank you from my cousin for helping with her wedding. This trip included my mom's FIRST massage AND facial, so please note that her only comment to my feedback is "I don't have anything to compare it to" (which makes me a little sad on the inside...). Please note: In what is now becoming my true form for reviews in this field of business, I am not naming our therapists as I believe proper business structure fixes a lot of the worst service-based issues. Also to be noted, I have worked in a salon/spa in the past for about 3 years. This will be... lengthy. 15 minutes into our scheduled appointment time, we are asked "Who would like their nails done first?" Oh, uhm, ok. I volunteer because I know the issues that can arise when you have your nails done before GETTING INTO A BED for your next services. I don't want my mom's first services to be tainted by this worry. This struck me as a BIG red flag, and I haven't even had a service yet. My nail service was fine, but felt incomplete. They use OPI nail polishes which was nice, but a few things struck me as odd. I had my whirlpool pedi first, which was kind of your standard nail-shop pedi - nothing at all special. I am then asked to walk barefoot THROUGH the nail/reception/waiting area to the mani station - in a very high traffic area. That just grossed me out and ruined any sense of cleanliness I had post-pedi. And I had brought and worn flip flops!! Whatever, okay, manicure is fine. I felt like there was an assumption I was going to use my same nail color on my hands as my feet, and the technician never applied cuticle oil which made my mani feel incomplete as well. I remember wondering if the tools were actually clean because that they were stored in was NOT. The water to soak my fingertips in was tepid by the second hand, however the hand (and foot) massage the technician gave was wonderful. On both my hands and feet, the technician overshot the nails and cleaned up afterwards with a brush dipped in polish remover, which seemed to be how she was trained and was something I didn't like because you can't get it all and it will look sloppy. Mani/pedi over, I then waited for just over a half hour. I was instructed that I could go shopping nearby. *eyeroll* I had the most issue with my facial, however the second technician (who did my facial AND massage...) waxed my eyebrows as well - for an additional charge - and they were well shaped although the process took probably over 15 minutes. My facial went first which is also backwards; when you have both a facial and massage you should have your massage first so that when you lay face-down you don't rub off all the lovely product on your face post-facial! Let me just launch into this: I have no idea what products were used on me, and when applying them they were only applied to my face-proper, not my jawline or neck - standard procedure nowadays. There was no talk about problem areas or what kind of products I use now though either, and my mention that I use an organic line that actually works was met later with a comment of "well, this isn't ORGANIC..." Due to hormones I was breaking out (which never came up), and at the very end of my facial she applied something that I would swear is Oxy from when I was a teen, to "dry out" my problem areas. Here's the problem: my skin is painfully dry right now. Also, I am 90% sure that during extractions a lancet was used, which is ILLEGAL; I was definitely experiencing pin-prick type punctures and now have scabbing where it was used. My massage was mediocre at best. The movements and pace were choppy with no flow, and the draping made me feel uncomfortable. At one point, the door was OPENED - with my full leg clear to the top of my hip bone was exposed while laying on my stomach - to communicate to the receptionist that she was running twenty minutes behind and her next client would have to wait. She repetitively and fiercely applied pressure to the lowest vertebrae of my neck to... try to relax me? I'm not sure, and at this point in the massage I gave up in the hopes of a relaxing experience. We left 4.5 HOURS after we arrived, a full HOUR more than we were initially told upon booking. There were no tip envelopes and no receptionist at the desk when we left. I never once felt like what was best for me as an INDIVIDUAL and customer was addressed. Customer service was generally lacking. I am now breaking out worse than I was before, my nails chipped in two days with no above average treatment to them, and my tendonitis is worse than it's ever been after that massage alone. Was it worth the value, or even the money paid for the groupon? I would say no. This is just another strip-mall spa, sorry to say... read more

I love getting facials from Mariola and Kasha. They are both wonderful. My face feels so rejuvenated and fresh after the treatment. In fact, my whole body feels wonderful. They are both very kind and highly skilled. I highly recommend this place. read more

They are fast and too good in servicing.. I just love the waxing here. They really do a great job.

I have been going to amazing face for bikini waxes for the last few months and am very happy with the wonderful quality service. Previously I had been getting waxed elsewhere and although the quality of both services is excellent, at Amazing Face the process is easier and less expensive! My busy schedule has been difficult for other business to work with but Kasia at Amazing Face is always able to get me an appointment within a week of calling and I greatly appreciate that. read more

I love Amazing Face. I have had troubled skin since junior high. I always thought I would grow out of it, but when I was approaching 30 and still breaking out, I knew I needed to do something different. I found Mariola and she has worked with me over the past year to totally transform my skin. I finally feel confident about the way my skin looks without makeup. I still have some minor breakouts occasionally, so I continue to see Mariola to keep my skin clean and under control. She is always kind and friendly and makes me feel at home. Highest possible recommendation. read more

Jigna shaped my eyebrows with her threading magic. She asked a lot of questions and she listened to what I wanted. Definitely coming back

I will DEFINITELY be coming back to Amazing Face and I highly recommend this spa/salon if you are in the South Bay. I had never been to an esthetician before and have only been relying on Proactiv, Differin, Retin-A, Murad, Cosmedix, plus other dermatologist and drug store products to help with my acne. None of those things really worked for me and I had severe cystic acne outbreaks on my cheeks and chin that I didn't know what to do with. I also have long-term scars from years of acne. On vacation for Christmas from out-of-state I decided to try the route of facials and peels. I highly recommend going to Amazing Face if you have acne. I was only in town for 3 weeks, Amazing Face got me in for appointments starting the next day after I called, and Mariola set me up with a series of 2 facials (I needed a LOT of extractions), 2 peels, and an at home exfoliating product. I wasn't sure if I would see results since my prescription products never worked very well, but I am very impressed with how my acne has improved in this short period of time. My skin looks much better and Mariola is very detailed when she does extractions, she'll do touch ups and catch any new zits. I can't say enough wonderful things about Mariola. She does a great job but she is also great to talk to during the process of getting the services, I looked forward to hearing all of her advice and she is very upbeat and positive. A great salon experience to have! Mariola is great at facials and the "acne facial" in particular was something that I highly recommend. The glycolic acid peel seems to have worked well too for my acn. I liked her facials so much that I tried an eyebrow wax today and also really like how Mariola does eyebrows. They look natural, sophisticated, and not overly thin like some other eyebrow places do their brows. She taught me how I should trim my brows at home because I was doing it all wrong! The prices are listed on their website and I think they are very fair prices. Mariola was great about putting together a package price for me that included a discount because I bought a series of services. The other thing that I like about Amazing Face is that they don't pressure you to buy all of the home care products. Mariola explained to me what products she recommended, but I always felt that there was no pressure to buy unless I wanted to. The parking is also very easy because the salon is in a shopping center. Amazing Face and Mariola are definitely worth checking out! I'm glad I did and I wil be back when I come back to the South Bay in the summer. read more

I found this great place through Groupon and I am so thankful for that. Mariota who is the also the owner of this place is such a warm person. She did an excellent job on my face (I bought the Microdermabrasion treatment and could not be more happy). I could really tell the difference after the first treatment!!!!! The place is relaxing (nothing fancy, though), but she is so nice and the treatment was just spectacular!! I really thankful for her... read more

Thought I'd give this place a try since there was a Groupon and I'm so glad I did! Kasha was so great and made my wax virtually painless( well...as painless as ripping hairs off your vajajay can be!). She was super professional, friendly and quick! In and out in 20 minutes! Will definitely be coming to her from now on! read more

I have traveled all over for business and my favorite thing to do is go to the spa and get something special done to relax (really helps with jet lag). THIS IS AS GOOD AS IT GETS for facials and waxing. I have been going to Mariola, the owner, for 15 years. She hands down gives the most thorough facial I've ever experienced. My skin always looks amazing...smooth, even, and stays that way in between regular facials. It is also true, Mariola has a wonderful personality and loves to share her unique perspective with her clients. For waxing, I agree with the other reviewers, Kashia, Mariola's sister, is the master. Pain-free and gorgeous...all I want. The whole experience at amazing face is a delight. Go for the pre-paid specials they run during the holidays...SUCH A GOOD DEAL. read more

I went back this time for an eyebrow & upper lip wax and had Kasia help me again. I went on a short notice and was glad they could squeeze me in, albeit only a 15 min appt. Kasia was great about making my brows look natural yet shapely. Though being Asian, I guess I just can't justify paying $35 for brows & lip that I can get threaded for $12 at Khoobsurat. read more

First and four most The lady Mariola will not accept group on coupons in case if you have plans for groupon get prepared to listen from her . I took a treatment worth 158$ after the treatment my face turned more dull and she left all the marks on the face she is very rude and just squeezes all over the face even when I requested her to stop So for the second time visit I couldn't make for the appointment and I literally wanted to cancel it and I called her back and explained why I couldn't make the appointment , but she was not in a position to understand and literally forced me to come and take the facial so I some how took time and went on another day and while making the payment she was so unpleasant with me and wants to take money for the appointment that I couldn't make where as she her self asked me to come some other day and take the facial and she would be charging only for the treatment she does when I go And she has end up giving me a long length of lectures and ate my brain for 30 mins which was so unprofessional on top of this she wants me to Buy some products from there I don't deserve to go through all these when I expect to have some relaxation and good treatment NOT AT ALL RECOMMENDED only zero stars read more

This place is fabulous!!!!! Very professional... you feel so comfortable when you come in. Kasha is great! She is really good with waxing. The pain is short and she makes you forget about it with great conversation! I'm def going back! Thanks to the reviewers who introduced me to this place :0) read more

I go to Amazing Face regularly and want to assure anybody out there that the owners are wonderful, caring people. To those who wrote reviews based on nail services, there has been a change in manicurists. I hope you will give them another try. Thank you! read more

I have been going to see Kasha for a few years now for waxing. Kasha is great at what she does and she makes the atmosphere light and fun when sometimes you are in...awkward positions. She's fun to talk to which makes things comfortable, I would absolutely recommend her not just for her amazing work but for her fun attitude as well. read more

I was looking for a place for pre-wedding pampering for me, the bride and her mom. I found Amazing Face on Yelp and had to try. They were able to accommodate all of us at the same time for facials. Mariola looked at our skin types and decided which treatments would be best for our individual needs. Kasha did my facial and was very professional. My skin really did look amazing after. My sister-in-law and her mom loved their experiences too. I came back later for waxing and Kasha was terrific with that as well. I received a gift certificate as a bridesmaid gift and I am so excited to go back. It is not the same spa experience as a burke williams with all the crazy amenities, but the results are much better. It was more therapeutic of a facial than I've had in a while. Also, being a family-run business, I'd prefer to support this over a chain. I will definitely be back! read more
