My second visit with Shelby for a Massage at Being in LA did not disappoint! I had to go back after my last experience at the spa and it was just as magical as the first time. A smile, the warm smells and cool air that greet you when you arrive set the tone for a relaxing massage. Shelby was amazing and recommended I add cupping to the massage. It was the best cupping I have had in LA! I feel like my body is renewed and reenergized. Thank you for a lovely experience and taking care of my soar neck and back. read more

I just had the best facial with Andrea at Being in LA the spa is so beautiful and magical. I'm definitely coming back to get the Non surgical face lift treatment next time! read more

I've gotten a few facials so far at Being In LA and I've had great results every single time. The Spa is relaxing and clean. Great customer service and good energy all around. Gabby has been helping me with all of my skin concerns. She's very attentive and knowledgeable and I'm excited to continue my sessions with her. The Jenette Skincare products that I've tried have been an essential part of my new skin care routine. Everything I've tried to far has been high quality and incredible. I highly recommend this spa. read more

This place is pure magic! Upon entering, you feel like you're in a sanctuary. Jenette Skincare products are a treat to all the senses. I came for a facial with Karyna and I already can't wait to for my next visit! She was so sweet and attentive to all my skincare needs. She was gentle and careful during the extractions. I can't remember the last time my face felt this smooth. She gave me a complete skin and mind reset that I didn't even realize I had desperately needed. I left feeling like I was on a cloud and my skin is healing so beautifully! You can guarantee, I will be coming back! read more

Where should I even begin? I began going to Being in LA to see Andrea pre-pandemic (~2019) and have been going back consistently ever since. Andrea is a highly skilled practitioner of her profession, with deep knowledge of different skin types and tones; her approach is gentle and effective. When I started going to her I was struggling with very dehydrated flaky skin, hyperpigmentation all over my face and a regimen that was way too intense. She redirected me to more gentle treatments and products, helped repair my skin barrier and over time, has significantly improved the overall appearance and health of my skin. I try to never miss an appointment, and will absolutely be a client of Andrea's for as long as she's still doing the magic she does. I've recommended her to everyone who asks me how I got my skin so good, including my husband who is also a long time client. I tried to include some before and afters -- the before photos were captured during the shed phase of my last peel with an esthetician who was NOT Andrea or done at Being in LA-- but you can see the pigmentation and dehydration I was managing. Andrea fixed all of it. Cannot recommend her enough! Go see her today! read more

See all

Being in LA is a true haven and gem in Silverlake. As soon as you enter, the vibe and the aromas make you feel calm and relaxed. The facials are incredible, I have experienced almost all the estheticians and they are all very lovely to work with and know what they are doing. They take their time and the products from Jenette's Skin Care are on another level. Jenette, the owner and founder, has created natural and organic products that really work and her passion and dedication to helping others glow is evident. You will feel the energy and your skin will thank you! I was glowing after my sessions and my skin looks calmer and happier ;) can't wait to continue the journey at this beautiful place and with these amazing and highly skilled artists. read more

I absolutely loved my facial with Gabby. She is very sweet and I highly recommend booking with her. She gives a wonderful treatment and asks all the right questions to treat your skincare needs! read more

There aren't many estheticians who can match Christopher's skill at giving a facial. He truly is one of the best in the business and is very thorough. I left glowing and radiant and I look forward to my next visit! read more

Being in LA provides a divine skincare experience. Peaceful, luxe, knowledgeable. The owner, Jenette, makes many of her own products and they work beautifully on my sensitive skin. I've done a peel series that has people asking about my new glowing skin. And I use the Be Divine, Be Calm, and Be Nourished sequence of products. My absolute favorite for regular maintenance is the non-surgical facelift. It's the best! read more

The service is impressive. Being In LA and Jenette's skincare products are all natural and handmade in LA. The vibe and people are very relaxed. I can't recommend a better place to learn about skincare and taking care of yourself inside and out. read more

Being In La - After a facial from Being in LA and the use of Jenette skincare products, age 49. - Skin Care Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Amazing non-toxic skincare studio with life changing products! I recently had a facial with Crystal and it was one of the best facials of my entire life. She did this incredible massage for lymphatic drainage and my face looked so sculpted after. Her attention to detail when it came to extractions was very impressive- this was KEY to my skin clearing up! The extractions healed quickly as well. I'm absolutely obsessed with this place and will keep coming back every month!!! Ps- Jenette skincare is absolutely life changing for acne-prone skin like mine! I'm so happy to be free of antibiotics for my skin. read more

Being In La - I bought the acne set after my first facial - Skin Care Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I been going to Being in LA for about two years. Their spa services are amazing, more now that massage services have been added. I seen Shelby before she transition to Being LA. I see Shelby for my deep tissue massage. Shelby, works magic on your body. She really gets in there, to untight the knots. You can combine services to make it custom to your needs. I had a deep tissue with lymphatic drainage massage, it was amazing. I finished with the LED bed, rejuvenate session. Twenty five minutes of pure , relaxation. I never want to leave . While you are there don't forget to check out their facial services, you will not regret it! Pampers yourselves. read more

I'm disappointed to be leaving this review as I really wanted to like this place. It's conveniently located for me and uses all natural products which is a huge plus, but the body and product shaming was a bit too much for me to ever return. As it was my first time scheduling here, I mentioned on the phone that my bikini line travels down my leg a bit further than what's included in a typical bikini wax as a courtesy heads up. It's not uncommon to be charged more for this and I don't mind paying the extra, but what I *did* mind was the commentary from the aesthetician about how she had "never seen anything like it" and asking me if I'd had my hormone levels checked. It's not exactly the kind of feedback you want to hear when you're laying naked in front of a stranger for the first time. She also had a lot of questions and feedback about the products I was using on my skin, and tried very hard to push a facial appointment on me. She was extremely rushed through the whole procedure and kept telling me she was going to run out of time to do everything, resulting in an incomplete wax. She charged me extra, which I wasn't surprised by, but was very disappointed when I got home and had to shave the rest of what she had missed, despite being up-charged for my original service. I wouldn't recommend this place to anybody who has "unconventional" body hair. I realize the location likely doesn't lend to a diverse clientele, but it seems if you're anything other than a cis white woman you're going to be made to feel that your body is an inconvenience to them. At one point she actually suggested I try laser instead of returning for another wax. Yikes. read more

Jenette's products and her treatments are phenomenal. I have been going to Jenette and Andrea for over a decade or so and each time leave feeling refreshed and glowy. She and her team take a lot of time and care with each person and have in depth knowledge about skin conditions and best course of treatment. The office is beautiful, clean, and welcoming. This is by far the longest time I have visited one health/wellness provider! Beyond the treatments, Jenette's Skin Care line smells and feels amazing, crafted carefully based on (as I've seen some of first hand) years of experience, testing, and refinement. Such amazing ingredients too. I rely on her products everyday. I love each product of hers, seriously every one. They give great results and have been great for sensitive skin. Highly recommended. read more

Best skin care line and services in LA. I drive an hour just to go here. The skin care line is all natural and I see the results. I have seen all the $$$$ Estheticians to the Stars and NO CHEMICALS is the best way to go! I get compliments saying I look 10 years younger. It's because I've been going to Jenette for a number of years now. Nothing beats her BE CLEAN detoxifying elixir. It's antibacterial. I have 4 in my house because I use it daily. I travel extensively and have been using BE CLEAN on planes for years now. I don't get sick when I travel anymore (4 years and counting knock on wood)! I have tried Jenette and Andrea for facials here and can say they are both amazing. I give the Cacao mask as gifts and if I ever get a pimple I use her POTION #1 and it disappears in 2 days max. I am grateful for the healthy confidence Jenette's all natural products give me. read more

Being in LA has been a staple in our community for longer than I can remember. You just them, their products and especially Jenette who's skin care line is so luxurious. I was out of everything during Covid and used some other high end products I had on hand. they were fine but when I was able to come in for a facial and once again start my Jenette skin care regime my heart soared. My skin was happy again and I felt so much better about my skin texture and radiance. read more

Pros: The esthetician was very thoughtful in her approach. You could feel the care and energy she put into the facial. Cons: Your first appt. is more expensive because they do a consultation. The consult is nothing more than what any esthetician would do at any other place. "What is your current routine? What are your goals?" Nothing that would justify more cost. Secondly, the product pushing was a bit much and throughout my entire facial, she asked what I was using for serum, then when it came to her putting moisturizer on, she asked what brand of moisturizer I was using and I was product shamed every step of the way. I would feel fin with it it if I felt that it was authentic but it didn't. To try to stop the product pushing, I said that I needed to get through my SkinCeuticals first and then I would try Jenett's products and I had every intention on doing so. When I went to check out, there were three products at the till and it felt expected that I purchase the products for $300. I said, "I am not buying product today as I mentioned to Esthetician" and was completely turned off. read more

Been here a couple times and Andrea and the staff are super courteous and great! Got eyebrows threaded and never teared up because she uses a cotton-based material. Very relaxing atmosphere and they sell a lot of facial products as well. They take Venmo as well. Highly recommended. read more

I absolutely love this skin care line, Janette All Natural Skincare. I first discovered their chocolate mask and Be Clean toner. I had ordered these products online and fell in love. I have sensitive skin and very acne prone struggled with cystic acne and I have been using these products for 6 months now with visible results. My skin has vitality and the ingredients are in my option the most intentionally made. Clean ingredients and Janette makes everything in house! My esthetician Rachel has been the best! She really cares about my skin and she has a wide background with products as well. Skin care is a journey and this has been the best journey in skincare I have experienced. I think everyone needs to try these products and make an appointment to get a facial!!!! read more

I'd love to personally recommend Rachel Clisby. I'd follow her anywhere, and I'm so glad she's located even closer in my neighborhood at Being in LA. You're in trusted, capable hands -- you know, the kind that can extract without breaking the skin, that will leave you pleasantly pink (not beet red!) after a peel or give you the glow you want all year round. I always walk out of appointments with glowing skin that's better than any filter. Rachel is gentle and efficient, and each service leaves my skin clean and glowing for weeks. Rachel, at Being in LA, is my 'glow-to' girl. read more

I had the best facial by Andrea Wallace. Do yourself a favor and book an appt stat with her. She cleared up my jaw line trouble spots and they have not returned. Also she turned me on to Be Clean toner which I have to think has helped me in between facials. This is def my favorite facial in LA or elsewhere. read more

At 40 my skin has never looked better and I owe that entirely to Jenette. I have gone to many many spas, skincare "specialists" and dermatologists and her knowledge and passion for her products far exceeds any of them. She truly has a deep understanding about skin care, is able to create individualized approaches and the results are absolutely beautiful. She has been applying that knowledge to developing her own skin care line which is divine. I am a mom with two kids and run my own business and would drive to Iowa to get treatments from her if I had to. Thankfully, I only have to go to Los Feliz...and I can buy her product online. Once you meet her and try her products, you will never need anything else. read more

I've been getting facials here for about a year with Rachel and she is amazing! I love that the products are natural ingredients and not full of chemicals. It's such an intimate and sweet little studio and is always so nice to come to and relax. Rachel works specifically to help with my skin goals and I always feel like I get a facial targeted for exactly what I need. read more

I've been struggling for some time now with my skin and decided to make an appointment with Rachel. She's super awesome and sweet and very honest when it comes to what is really best for my skin. I've never had a facial before and my first experience with her was great- the vibe of the place is super peaceful I almost fell asleep on the bed lol. Highly recommend Rachel if you're looking for some real professional skin advice or just a relaxing facial. read more

Customer service - 10/10 Ease of getting appointment 10/10 Product - all natural I would give her a 5/5 for knowing her stuff and doing it well but I went on a Amazon local deal that was for two peels of your choice an enzyme or chemical. I have tons of blackheads and tough skin so I wanted a chemical peel for sure. Janette is a strong believer and teacher of going the natural way(organic) which as we know is good in the long run for your health but it resulted to absolutely zero results in allowing my skin to peel. I NEEDED a peel as much as I needed the facial which she did an excellent job on. She removed a lot of white heads and cleaned me out good but I wish she had just said she doesn't do chemical peels. The first was a vit c peel second I don't know as she didn't say except for it was a stronger peel than last time. I didn't even flake a tiny bit and her product doesn't seem to do magic on my skin as I had hoped. She does market her products so be prepared. IF YOU WANT AN EXCEPTIONAL FACIAL GO TO JANETTE but if you want a real peel where you see your skin shed, this isn't your place. I usually will give 5 stars as I respect this is someone's business so I'm not quick to condemn. I can't give her 5 stars because I am grading the actual service paid for not how well she did what she actually did do. I went for a peel but got a great facial. JANETTE is EXCELLENT she just doesn't agree with chemical peels so don't expect to get one! read more

I am in the Entertainment Industry, have paid top dollars for many 'Facialists to the Stars' and no one comes close to Jenette. Her long term goal is to make you look younger and have healthier skin. I am mid 40's and get compliments from my associates in their 20's that my skin looks amazing. I drive from Malibu to Echo Park because her products and service make that big a difference in my life! She specializes to your skin's constantly changing needs and she only tries to sell you what your skin needs so you feel excited to go back. I don't know what I would do without her! and her 'Be Happy' oil is the most amazing scent I've ever experienced...I don't travel without it....She is truly onto something big. read more

This is truly the only place I will trust with my skin. I spent much of my late teens and 20s with adult acne and have experienced tremendous results with regular facials from Jenette. After trying every product in the book (and even medication that didn't work) I thought I would never see my skin clear again. I now have beautiful, wrinkle free, healthy skin. They only use the highest quality products here and Jenette has her own great line of completely natural products as well. I can't speak highly enough. It does take a while to get in for an appointment though, so best to book well in advance. read more

I've been a fan of Jenette and her amazing facials for over ten years, but she has outdone herself with her new little oasis back in Los Feliz! She is always informative, explaining to me what she is doing to my skin and why. And her new product line ROCKS. My skin has never looked better and feels amazing. And you can feel the LOVE the moment you walk in the door. read more

I am absolutely in love with the facials and the Jenette products at Being in LA. I did 3 micro channeling facials and they were life changing. My skin felt much younger, plumper and more hydrated. Crystal is super talented and definitely knows skin and how to handle it. read more

Won a gift certificate for a facial here at a school auction. Wasn't sure what to expect from this small, tucked away place in the heart of Los Feliz. What I found was cozy paradise! Upon walking in, I saw someone in their kitchen, MAKING many of the magical creams and soaps that were used during my facial. The facial itself was wonderful and relaxing, and my skin was glowing afterwards. But I especially appreciated that no one tried to sell me any of their products while getting it done. Instead, I felt their skincare advice came from a genuine place, not from a place of peddling. That said, I did buy a few things of my own volition, and have enjoyed them quite a bit, including the moisturizer and facial soap. Loved this place and will definitely come back when I need some pampering! read more

This place is beautiful, and peaceful, and Andrea is awesome. I've had a Brazilian and a facial with her, and both treatments were fantastic. The Brazilian lasted longer than any other I've had. I would recommend Andrea anyday. read more

Jenette knows her stuff. She has transformed my skin. Between facials I have been slowly adding the products she recommends to my regime and I can say I truly see a difference. She is extremely knowledgable, not only about the products she's using, but about your skin and what it truly needs. This was my second facial with her, and I cannot wait to go back! read more

Still getting carded at 38 and I owe it to Jenette! She's a skin guru. Her products are amazing and her facials are the best. My skin has never looked so good. read more

FINALLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!! My prayers have been answered, and BEING IN LA exists! I've seriously tried every non-toxic, natural skincare facialist and their recommended products in this town, and as a result, have spent the last decade being upset with my prematurely aging, acne-prone, dry af, hormonal face. But a week ago, on day three of my period, after using their products and regime for 3 months, I looked in the mirror and thought, "wow. what pretty skin!" My facial with Rachel started with a consultation - I showed her all my products and she went through and told me what was what. There were a few products she scoffed at (in a funny way, not shaming!), a few she endorsed, and a few she suggested to repurpose (jojoba oil, btw, should only be used as a shaving oil, and it's the best shaving help I've EVER used. It's very much comedogenic in EVERY other capacity.). Then, the facial was basically re-teaching me everything I knew about skincare (and I used to work as a beauty editor!). It was soothing, cleansing, effective. I left feeling refreshed and calm - every product smelled and felt so good it was so relaxing! I also left with a bunch of products and while it took my skin a few weeks to adjust, wow, I'm so glad I stuck to the regime. I called and emailed a few times when I was feeling weary of the transition and the entire staff was so supportive and knowledgable. I was going to head back in for a second facial, but the Covid-19 interruption means I just have to rely on their products and consultations, but they are working and are amazing and I can't believe how awesome my skin is looking without regular facials. Worth every penny. SO grateful for Being in LA. read more

Came here today for the first time. Rachel was super helpful, friendly, and knowledgable! She clearly has a sharp eye and was able to tell me very quickly what was happening with my skin. She helped me understand what is best for my skin type, and why. The ambiance is calm and clean, and the products are all natural. I will definitely be coming back regularly, and I already can't wait for my next visit! read more

Being In LA was recommended to me by my friend who has the MOST amazing skin and I only wish I had gone sooner! I had my first facial with Rachel and she was incredible. She sat down with me before my treatment to ask me about my skin and to get an idea of my skin goals. I struggle with discoloration and scarring from high school acne and I had been told from other aestheticians that I needed photo facials to get rid of it but Rachel let me know we could get my skin clear without something that harsh (or expensive). Once the treatment started, she talked me through everything and was super gentle (even with extractions). My skin looked AMAZING afterward and I can only imagine how much my complexion is going to improve with regular facials. All of their products are totally natural and made in-house and the spa itself is adorable. I love Rachel and I love this place! I can't recommend it enough! read more

"I have new life goals!", I shouted as I walked through my front door having just received my very first facial at Being in LA. I'm a life long tomboy, athlete, mechanic, electrician, carpenter, plumber and let's face it...anything that involves grit, dirt and sweat. I've never taken care of my skin because I always considered it "girly" and I never in my life imagined I would get a facial. Well, today I did and I have a newfound understanding of the term "self care". It was one of the most relaxing, healing experiences I have ever had. To say the least, I was extremely nervous, not really understanding the process or what to expect. My technician Rachel was sensitive to that and took her time explaining what the procedure would entail. She was friendly, knowledgeable and very calming. I nearly fell asleep several times I was so relaxed. They take such pride in the details and they have a genuine passion for educating you on future maintenance and what exactly works for your individual skin. Who knew there is bonus massaging of your neck, upper back, arms and hands? If you ask me, they are skin masters and soul soothers. I'm nearly 40 now and my neglect has taken a toll. I am so thrilled to implement new daily practices that will make me feel nourished and I have every intention of making this experience a regular "self care" commitment. Thank you Rachel, Jenette and the entire Being in LA team for providing such a wonderful experience! Complete "Game Changer"! read more

I see Andrea and I love her! She's consistent and easy to talk to. She gives a great massage while the masks are on and I trust her completely. The products are made in house. They feel great on the skin and I leave feeling renewed and relaxed every time. You can get facials for less money, but I don't think they are of the same quality. It's worth paying for a great facial. I've had a great experience every time and would recommend her to anyone. read more

Highly recommend this place! It's very beautiful and peaceful, and Andrea is great. Very easy to talk to, and gives a painless bikini wax (I didn't know that was a thing). Will definitely be my go-to place. read more

Oh my God!!!! Best facial I've ever had by far and I've had A LOT of facials! Jenette is such a gifted lady and she explained everything to me step by step. She made me feel like there's hope for my skin and she never shamed me like a lot of estheticians do. I'm so so so so glad I found her. Worth every penny. read more
