I started coming here about 3 years ago and even after moving to NYC I've continued to make the trip to NJ. I often get asked why I would still drive to Hoboken when there are so many great salons and spas in NYC and I can truly say it's because of the team. Of course the studio is clean, relaxing and beautiful - that's a given in today's beauty industry and what we've come to expect and demand - but the team is so professional, knowledgeable and beyond skilled, and that's the difference. In addition to having a talented and educated staff, Skin by EC offers a wide range of treatment options that have completely changed my body and skin. (All I can say is ask about the venus legacy for cellulite reduction. It has changed my life and I've gone from not wanting to wear shorts to loving my legs again - thank you!!!) With that said, I would like to acknowledge Maggie. She has completely transformed my skin and body and I am so grateful I found her. Her love for what she does radiates through her work and her positive energy makes you feel comfortable and at ease. She is so clean, knowledgeable and friendly, and I trust her recommendations because of how skilled she is. I also appreciate all the little extra things she does during my treatments to make my experience a 15/10. In today's environment, it's tough to find people that truly care about their clients and their profession and Maggie is that person. She's one in a million. read more

Thank you Oana for rescuing my skin for a second time. I have struggled with acne most of my life, and my late 30s have been no different. I used to see Oana before covid reset the world. I came back to her this year after losing my confidence a bit with my appearance. My skin was a disaster. After three monthly facials, I am over the moon to see my results. She helped address all of my concerns. Hormonal acne, blackheads, congestion. I am starting to feel like myself again. She is profoundly informative and thoughtful. I trust her 100% with my face and I'm so thankful for her help. I have seen Erica for microneedling and I was also thrilled with the decrease of my scarring. It's probably to come see her again soon! Thank you again Oana and EC Beauty! read more

I hate to do this because I see so many positive reviews and my experience was okay, but I'll provide you with the why. My ultra pet peeve when you go to get any beauty service is when they spend the time trying to upsell you on every single product service etc. it's not relaxing, it's not a good look, and ultimately ruins your experience. I came for derma-planing and facial. During the facial she kept trying to upsell me on everything under the sun. I caved in on the microdermabrasion. When I went to check out the mask which is normally included, some 1 min oxygen she literally sprayed on my face probably less than 1 min, the dermaplan, the facial the oil etc line item after line item ended up being $400! She said the additional charge was 35.00 but racked up$ 400+ Then I decided to get my lashes. I was very clear I do classic natural looking not long or heavy volume lash. She removed my strangler lashes that hadn't naturally fallen off and I swear I almost went blind with the soliton. For 20 min I couldn't open my eyes.. after that I stayed and did my lashes to open my eyes two hours later to daddy long leg spider lashes!!! I almost died! She said she could fix it, I sat there another 45 min to have zero changes. Today, I have to get them removed. All in all if you don't mind being upsold too then come. The facial itself was okay but not worth $400+ no no no read more

With an aching back, I booked a deep tissue massage with Mathew. It was time well spent. Mathew was both strong and sensitive - just what was needed to work out numerous knots in my back and shoulders - highly recommend. read more

EC Beauty studio the best place. Owner Erica was good and Kind. Maggie did my facial. She is very good .I love this place. People are so good. read more

I have been waxing my eyebrows for years and unfortunately I had a horrible experience at EC. My esthetician did not ask me about medications until she was done waxing me and noticed how red my skin was. I was not aware that waxing while on acne medication was going to damage my skin. I have chemical burns on my face and am in a lot of pain. I am so sad to have to attend a wedding this weekend looking like this. I will not be back to EC again. read more

In high school I had really bad skin, think pizza face. While my skin has gotten a little clearer, I still have super oily skin, think bp oil spill. Very large pores, and the occasional break out, which I feel like I'm getting kind of old for. I mean, we're supposed to outgrow those once we leave our teens, right? Two of my friends knew that I had a lot of skin concerns and highly recommended EC Beauty. I decided to try it and made an appointment, I mean who doesn't enjoy being pampered? I was a little concerned about getting chemical peels, I was concerned about looking like a burn victim for a week, or permanent damage, Michele put me completely at ease, explained the process to me and answered my 101 questions about it... and about every single treatment she does - what can I say, I'm a curious person. Well, I've been going to EC and I'm happy to say, EC (and Michele) definitely gives you that relaxing, pampered feeling, even their couch to wait on is super comfy! Their scrubs smell fantastic and also make my skin look fabulous. My face has cleared up, less breakouts. My pores look smaller, some of my acne scarring has been minimized. so many people have noticed that my skin looks great. If you have problem skin, old skin, just skin, I would check out EC. read more

EC Beauty Studio and Spa - Day Spas Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

This is long. I didn't necessarily want to write this review but I felt misled after reading all the positive reviews here and should probably share my terrible experience. I explained that my main concern are my blackheads on my nose. My facialist immediately started to upsell additional treatments but I just wanted a regular facial without all the extra cost. I've had a lot of great facials in the past without any additional add-ons - I just needed extractions on my nose. The entire time my facialist was talking about how microwaves cause cancer, how the ingredient Dimethicone is a terrible ingredient yet she tried selling me a sunscreen that used it as one of the top ingredients and a lot of other information she read online. That didn't bother me as much as her not paying close attention to my face it seemed. She suggested I do the papaya enyzme mask add-on and when I told her no, she said "oh okay hm how am I going to do this" etc. If that mask is so necessary to do the facial, why isn't it included  w an increased price?? The steaming beforehand did not feel nearly as long enough and because of that, I don't think my pores were open enough. She kept talking mostly of things I already knew, to the point where she would pause midway working on my face, to talk.  When she let me interjected she commented that I knew a lot about skincare. Unfortunately, she spent such a short time actually on my skin, I don't know why I was so surprised when I saw so many blackheads left. My skin felt VERY  dry and tight afterwards and my pores look even bigger.  I called the place as I was walking home because I felt awful for wasting $125 (+ tip) and over an hour of my time. Luckily I was able to speak to Erika the owner.  Erika said that i might have such dehydrated skin and deep pores, that it takes more than one session, and she said she can't say much since she hasn't seen my skin personally. No, I don't think that's it since I've had a lot of great facials before with my skin being a lot worse. BUT let's say that's the case: then why didn't my facialist tell me that she couldn't extract everything so I may need another session???  I told Erika I had pictures right before the facial and afterwards . She said that I can text it to her and she would be happy to reschedule the appointment. I never heard from her after hours of waiting. I am fed up. I'm so disappointed. read more

EC Beauty Studio and Spa - AFTER my extractions during my facial. There are a lot of blackheads left on my nose. Very disappointing. - Day Spas Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

I have been going to EC beauty studio for over 5 years now. I even continue to return every month even though I have since moved out of the area. Erica works wonders on your skin. She spends time to analyze your skin, listen to your concerns, and chooses the best treatment to address the imperfections. Erica has lightened my sun spots, reduced redness, knocked out post-natal hormonal breakouts, and greatly improved my complexion overall. I always leave the studio with glowing skin. She also makes great recommendations for products but is never pushy. Plus we always have great conversation! I will never let anyone else touch my skin. Christine does a fabulous job on my lashes. I always get complements on them after she works her magic. I have pretty straight lashes and she can get them to curl perfectly and it lasts 8 weeks for me. I barely have to wear mascara. She is sweet, always makes sure I'm comfortable, and is super personable. I highly recommend EC Beauty Studio! read more

Absolutely love going to Erica - I've been seeing her for a few years now. I started going before my elopement and she made me look and feel perfect! I had a few problem areas right before my wedding and she even let me come in for a last minute touch-up to make sure my skin was perfect! read more

Subpar mediocre service. This was the most awkward back facial I've ever had. It felt like a 16 year old was just slamming products into my back. There was no headband for the facial and my long hair kept coming out towards my back, I felt wires on my head, constant moving of the bed and things dropping on the floor. The most awkward was the constant 2-3 minute waits between each step of the facial. I was told that there will be two masks but it was just a spot treatment, and a smack of some product with a cold towel for two minutes. I had much higher expectations for this place. read more

I just had a yumi/keratin lash tint and lift by Erica and it was a great experience overall. The receptionist was also kind and helpful on the phone, as well as when I arrived. I love the way my lashes look (and they're quite fair and fine.) Recommend! read more

I am thrilled to have found such a great place for facials just a few minutes from home! Upon arrival, I was greeted warmly and offered water. I was immediately then taken to my treatment room to get changed. Michelle is a doll! She was honest and gave me a great recommendation for treatment plan. I am grateful and will definitely be a monthly client. Post facial; I saw immediate results. My skin was brighter and smoother. I honestly was shocked and so excited. This place is it! read more

The best facial in Hoboken, hands down. Michelle is amazing and has helped my skin improve so much.. she's also so sweet! The office is clean and very relaxing. Could not recommend Michelle and EC enough. read more

Maggie is my favorite - she really goes the extra mile to make her clients feel at ease and well taken care of and the bonus is that she is so authentic as a person, you automatically feel you are in good hands with her. read more

I got my third facial at EC last week and could not be happier. I usually get the dermaplaning facial but this visit I went with the "you facial" with Maggie. She added on the microdermabrasion and I am loving how my skin looks and feels post facial. Maggie was the sweetest and so gentle but extremely thorough. I knew I loved EC and this past visit definitely solidified that again! read more

I wish I had found Michele and EC Beauty sooner! I've been going to Michele for facials for about 2 years and even sent my husband for a few facials with her. I can't speak highly enough about both of our experiences. Michele is extremely professional, welcoming and knowledgeable. She recommends services and products tailored to my particular needs and she is not pushy. In fact, she will make sure I only purchase what is right and best for my skin. A facial with Michele is the perfect combination of what feels like catching up with an old friend and relaxation. My skin has never looked better. I recently got my make-up done for a wedding and the make-up artist raved about my skin which is all thanks to Michele. read more

Massage by Dominic today was restorative! Dominic was professional, caring and really knew how to work with my health issue. The studio is wonderful. Highly recommend. read more

I got my eyebrows tinted yesterday here for the first time, and I love them. Michele did a fabulous job! And the salon was very clean and careful which made me feel very comfortable. read more

I had a dermaplaning facial with Michele who is the Lead Master Esthetician and it was the best facial I've ever had! She is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about what she does and I learned a lot about my skin. I've had a lot facials but this was definitely on another level of expertise. My skin never felt so smooth or looked as healthy and bright as it did after this facial. It doesn't get any better than this. I would highly recommend booking this or any treatment with Michele and I'm definitely returning sooner than later!! read more

HORRIBLE experience This place scarred and completely messed my face up and im going through alot trying to fix it now. i wish i can give no stars but ill give one for them refunding me for a hack job to remove capillaries off my face. Very bad amateur service. read more

During my visit to this establishment I was greeted professionally by the staff which is always a great pleasure especially with the way things are going in society today. I have been a client of Dominic's who just so happens to a great massage therapists. I must say this Dominic takes pride in his work by asking the following: what type of massage is needed? What are your areas of concern. After given those little details. Dominic manages to develop a plan that will get you on your way to feeling Relaxed, Rejuvenated, and Refined! I must admit Dominic hands are truly a Gift from GOD!! Since he has been my massage therapist for over 2 years- He has never managed to disappoint me as of yet. I would strongly recommend him to anyone. Don't take my word for it give Dominic a call - He definitely is the go to guy for healing your mind, body and soul!! read more

CHRISTINE & MICHELE! CHRISTINE & MICHELE! I've been going to EC for over a year now religiously. I go to Christine 2-3 times a month for lash extensions and all i have to say is WOW. i get compliments all the time! I'm currently doing the hybrid extensions and they are long and voluminous without looking fake. Christine does an amazing job and she is the BEST. i go to Michele once a month for a facial and she has completely changed my face. She is knowledgeable about skincare and always gives me the right recommendation on the regime that suits my skin at that time without being pushy. It's impossible to leave a session with Michele without feeling relaxed and rejuvenated at the same time. The studio is clean and all the girls are so friendly. I'm so happy i found EC, and i highly recommend! read more

I've been going to EC beauty studio for about a year now but saw Michele tonight as the previous woman I was seeing has since left and HOLY AMAZING. The studio is so insanely clean and taking amazing covid precautions. They have air purifiers in each room, the staff wears masks AND shields and you can just tell they take it very seriously which I appreciate. They use the best of the best products and it is an overall amazing experience! I definitely think you get your money's worth! Michele is absolutely awesome! She is SO knowledgeable about everything, extremely personable and takes time to assess your skin in depth. I am getting married in a year and she is helping me set up a treatment plan to get my skin exactly where I want to be. I can't wait to go back!! read more

This review is long overdue! As I'm nearing my mid-thirties my skin is starting to show fine lines, sun spots, loss of elasticity and its once smooth complexion. After one session with Daniela, my esthetician, I was hooked. I first met Daniela at another Spa but have followed her to EC Beauty. Daniela has the ability to make you look a few years younger just with one session sans any needless or injections. I have been working long hours lately, under significant stress and my skin shows it. My skin was mostly dry, yet I was getting oily patches which caused breakouts. I received the ultimate renewal facial treatment today. The products felt cool, a bit tingly at times, and smelled fantastic. My skin immediately feels more hydrated, my face is lifted and my fine lines are less visible. I also appreciate that Daniela will ensure your full time is utilized. She offers arm and leg massages during her treatments when you have a face mask applied. I wish I had gotten photos today. I feel and look 10x better. You can see her before/afters on her IG page: djmanzo80. As always, thank you so much Daniela! EC Beauty- Everyone I met as I walked in was really friendly and knowledgeable. In my brief interactions I can see why EC Beauty has a great reputation! I look forward to my next treatment. read more

I had the most wonderful facial. Grace is amazing!!. My skin is glowing, and feels very soft and clean. Warm and inviting atmosphere. she really listen to my skin concerns and made me feel very comfortable. I will be returning every month! read more

Erica and her team at EC Beauty Studio are the best! I started seeing Erica for facials over a year ago based on the recommendation of my wedding planner. I've always struggled with dull, congested skin and wanted to get a bridal glow for my upcoming wedding. Erica was knowledgeable, friendly, and genuine. She recommended some PCA products to start using at home and would custom adjust my facial every month depending on what issues needed to be addressed with my skin. It didn't take long to start seeing results! It felt amazing when I started to receive compliments from friends, family, coworkers and even strangers on my complexion. Erica had a whole plan laid out so that I was especially ready for all the major milestones related to the wedding (bridal shower, bachelorette, and of course the wedding weekend). Erica is extremely attentive to my skin and takes the time to talk to me about what she's seeing and what the plan to address it will be. At one point I started breaking out around my lips, and when I showed Erica, she asked if I changed my toothpaste lately which I had! She said I was probably allergic to the foaming agent in the new toothpaste, and as soon as I switched back to my old brand, the breakouts stopped! It's so helpful to have an expert you can consult with, and Erica always tell me to call or stop in if something with my skin is concerning me between our monthly visits. I've also used EC Beauty Studio for the accelerated spray tans, which are amazing! I love that it's a quick formula and I can shower with a couple hours depending on how deep I want the tan. I received lots of compliments on my color and how natural it looked. Also, on both my bachelorette and honeymoon where I was swimming a lot, the color stayed for much longer than I expected it to. I've been continuing with my monthly facials and PCA products from EC Beauty Studio since the wedding and can't imagine not making my skincare a priority going forward. I always look forward to my visits and product recommendations from Erica. I think part of what I have enjoyed the most about investing in my skin with EC Beauty is that I've never once felt pressured into a service or product, unlike other spas in Hoboken. I'm so happy I started this routine and my advice to my friends and others is not to wait until a wedding or big life event to take care of your skin. Go see Erica and her team and get started today! read more

Grace is the best! My skin needed a lot of TLC after I had dark marks, acne, skin peeling due to sensitive skin. Grace convinced me to get the pca micropeel and now my skin problems have vanished like Magic! I trust her completely to take care of my skin.. read more

I came here because Hoboken Girl Blog gave them a wonderful review. You can read it here (http://hobokengirl.com/amazing-facials-ec-beauty-studio-spa/.) I made a same day appointment with Michele for a "you" facial. She met me at the door and was great to work with. She analyzed my skin and selected products to use on me that were appropriate for my skin type. She also made some great recommendations to try and keep my skin looking good afterwards. I definitely would like to make my appointments with Michele a regular occurrence. The spa is somewhat difficult to find but worth it in the end. It is in the Sky Club building/parking garage on the 7th floor. No car? No problem! This location is also right next to the light rail stop. Check out their website and give them a try. Pamper yourself-you deserve it! read more

So happy I found EC and Michele! She explained everything so thoroughly! I just had my first ever dermaplaning with her and the results are amazing! Michele is very professional and made me feel very comfortable with the procedure! Highly recommend!! read more

Pretty disappointed with my appointment for eyebrow shaping at EC. I was super excited to find a place with good reviews in Hoboken. The atmosphere is great and Michelle was very nice. After calling once, I was under the impression that eyebrow shaping was a basic wax with consultation ($15) and "reshaping" was for a more extensive service. So I later made an appointment for eyebrow shaping. The process was painless and super professional, and my eyebrows seemed perfect in the mirror there. When I was rung up the total came to $45 and Michelle explained that this was for eyebrow shaping, while waxing was $15. Their website posts waxing as $15 and reshaping as $30. Overall I was confused by what I was told on the phone in my first call, and now I'm confused as to why the price I was charged was still different than that posted on their website. When I got home and looked in the mirror in different lighting, I noticed that the bottom base of my brows were notably different, it seemed like one was tinted, thicker, and not in a straight line and the other was the normal straight line I'm used to. And overall, I did not see the sharp lines I like when getting my brows done. I think the detail and symmetry could have used much more attention. I will probably not return. read more

Michele is amazing! I was recommended to her by a friend in preparation for my wedding, and after just one facial my skin felt so much better. Michele is so kind and truly cares about her clients. I am beyond thankful I found her and the products and treatments she has used to make my skin brighter, clearer, and more youthful. If you are looking for a talented and knowledgeable esthetician Michele is your lady! read more

I love EC Beauty and I love Michele!!! They offer a variety of skincare services; facials being my favorite. I love the quality of the products and tools they use for their services.

Michele is also one of the nicest and friendliest people I have met. I love getting facials with her, and I have noticed a significant improvement in my skin after I started seeing her and following her skincare recommendations, which were tailored to my skin and concerns. read more

I have now been going to EC beauty monthly for a few years, and my skin has never been better.
