I look forward every month to have a facial with Monica. She listens to my concerns, makes an assessment and adjusts the facial accordingly. It is welcome that it is not the same boring facial every month! It's a treat to be in a calm location that gives a feeling of comfort, warmth and relaxation. :-) read more

Monica is lovely and truly listened to my skin concerns. My skin looked and felt great. She also gave an amazing face massage

DARE I SAY THIS, I had the best facial of my adult life with Monica! This was such a phenomenal experience. I felt as though Monica was very informative and thorough - she also provided guidance in such a grounding and calm manner that it was inviting for me to discuss my skin goals without judgment. The environment is open and warm, completely nurturing to my nervous system. I also really enjoyed the relaxing massage elements to the facial which made the time fly by. I left with my skin glowing and a beaming smile.  Highly recommend you book a service! read more

I HIGHLY recommend Botanical Beauty!! Monica was amazing and so knowledgeable. Referring her to everyone I know! read more

I don't always leave reviews, but I do every once in a while when the service is outstanding. I had my first facial with Monica last week, and it was an exquisite experience! Upon entering her office, I felt transported into a healing sanctuary. Monica was so attentive to my needs, and took time to cater the session to the specifics of my skin. She also added gem stones for chakra and reiki healing--a nice touch to my facial. She went above and beyond my expectations, and I really appreciate that she uses high quality organic products. I left feeling rejuvenated and radiant like a glowing goddess! I highly recommend going to her and I will definitely be coming back! Thank you, Monica! read more

I've been given the same advice over the years from estheticians and I always felt that they weren't "getting" something about my skin. That all has changed since I found Monica at Botanical Beauty. Not only did my skin improve, it's glowing like never before. She gave me practical advice that WORKS. I have never had someone so attentive, present, problem solving, and PAMPERING handle my skin and I'm happy to say I won't ever be looking elsewhere. Just go, nobody matches this standard of service and magic. read more

Monica makes it a mind and body experience to visit. Her love of her clients and dedication to improve our health goes beyond a simple massage. Can't wait for this quarantine to be over!! read more

My skin had been feeling dry, dull and acne prone with the shift in weather, and I'm so grateful that I found Monica! She is everything you want in an esthetician; so sweet, and a joy to talk with, as well as full of all sorts of knowledge and recommendations. She was incredibly gentle and explained every step she was taking. She made several personal recommendations, based on what she noticed about my skin, and what I mentioned on my intake form. Speaking of - by far the most comprehensive client intake form I've ever seen! Her space is beautiful, and gives off what I can only describe as a very bright and calming energy. Long short - Great space, great energy, incredibly fair prices. I can't wait to come back!! read more

Monica is a gentle soul which belies the strength of her hands. She seems to know intuitively which areas of your body need the most attention. After a massage, you will feel renewed and relaxed. Monica's facials are extraordinary. Monica uses high quality products and has a special touch so I leave feeling like I am ten years younger. My skin glows for days. I highly recommend Monica for massage and facials. read more

My favorite facial spot yet. Monica is such a kind person and always begins sessions by relaxing your mind and body. Her techniques and products make my skin feel refreshed, clean and rejuvenated. Monica is great at skin analysis and product recommendations. I purchased a face wash that she had recommended and I am absolutely obsessed, she has a great selection of products in her shop as well. When I leave, my skin is glowing for weeks to come.. I always look forward to my next visit. read more

Love Monica's massages. She has a special positive energy which is amazing! She spends time on the right spots needing her special touch. Was very impressed with the facial I had also. Now one of my favorite places for "me" time. read more

When I finally invest in myself, I have always hoped that it wouldn't just be a-walk in, get service, go home. I have always hoped to have a service provider make me feel "transformed". That has been totally illusive, until now! From the moment I rushed into Monica's sanctuary, late from meetings, I could feel a difference. I was greeted with her warm smile and soft voice, and already I could feel myself breathe. We talked for a moment and then she led me into the gorgeous facial room, with its soft lighting, relaxing music and heavenly scent. It was a first appt so she took the time to go over concerns and questions she had from the form I filled out. She had me get ready, and frontloaded me with what patients usually wear while getting a facial, so there wasn't that awkwardness. From the moment she started, she actually didn't start until she worked on getting me relaxed. I work in a high stress job and relaxation is never easy for me. She took that time to remind me to breathe, and let my muscles melt. She asked what essential oil would suit me most, everything was about making sure I could truly relax and be transformed by the process. The masks were all amazing, my favorite being the one at the end, the algae mask. Like a blanket of love hugging your face. Between each mask, and there were soooo many, was a hot towel wrap. My skin was rejuvenated, extremely soft, and such a beautiful color, super nice for this old gal! And my whole inability to relax? I may or may not have actually snored while she was massaging my neck and back, she just smiled and said, "That means I am doing my job right". Yes Monica, yes you did! AND to top it off was a little gift back with the product she used, and the glass freezer vials so that I could relax my face at home. This wasn't just a facial, this was mental wellness! This will be a lifelong gift to my wellness!! Thank you Monica! See you soon! read more

Monica is the best of the best. I had my first massage and facial with her and I'm incredibly happy. I have another facial already scheduled, and can't wait to schedule another massage with her. She dug deep and found out what was going on with my body so that my massage was not only soothing and relaxing, but also therapeutic. And we are taking steps to heal my face botanically. If you've never had a massage or facial, or if you've had a bad experience with either, this is the place for you! Thank you so much Monica! read more

Highly recommend Botanical Skincare and Massage. Monica is knowledgeable in her craft and very thorough. Lovely office. Will be coming back regularly. read more

I was looking for an aesthetician who offered natural facials and I have had two glorious, botanical facials with Monica. The facial experience begins when you walk in the door and smell the essential oils, instantly putting you at ease and in a state of relaxation. The office is decorated in such a way that it feels like a serene oasis within beautiful Auburn, CA. Monica is a gentle soul with a gentle touch, and that is evident in her interactions and how she delivers the facial. I treated myself to a 90-minute facial over the holiday season and I experienced facial reflexology for the first time; I was amazed by how relaxed I felt throughout my entire body, both during and after the treatment. Monica tailors the facial to your specific needs. My face has felt and looked so refreshed after the treatment. I have sensitive skin, but I have not had any reaction to any of the products that Monica uses. I have thoroughly enjoyed the therapeutic nature of the facials, and I feel even better about the entire treatment knowing that all of the products are natural. I highly recommend Monica for her blissful, botanical facials. read more

Walking into Monica's space automatically makes you take a deep breath. Her calm voice invites you to deeply relax and her vast skincare knowledge makes it truly an amazing experience.

Can not recommend her highly enough. Go see her! You won't be disappointed. read more

My experience with Monica was AMAZING! I got the 90 minute facial, and it was really just over the top incredible. My skin feels better than it's felt in years. She has an incredibly soothing and uplifting energy, and shared her knowledge in such a kind and educational manner. I feel like I got way more than just a facial, and for the services I received it was actually quite affordable. If anyone is looking for THE BEST facial experience, I would definitely recommend her! read more
