I've been a client of Rita's for almost five years now, and I can say without a doubt that she is the best in the business. I see her every two weeks for an eyelash fill, and she has also done semi-permanent makeup for me. I trust her so much that I've even taken my mother to see her as well. I highly recommend her lash extensions and semi-permanent makeup services. She offers a wide variety of treatments, and her shop now includes a full salon, making it even more convenient. If you're looking to enhance your beauty with someone you can truly trust, look no further--book an appointment with Rita and her team today! read more

I got my eyebrows micro bladed for my birthday, and I was a bit nervous because I had little to no eyebrows. However, Rita was extremely helpful and advised me to go with Nano Brows! I love them!! I have had them for about 2 years now and the color has faded into a light brown. The process was more painless then I expected. I am so happy with my eyebrows!! read more

I'm a dentist and very picky about skincare and the products I use. I also don't normally write reviews, but I felt this was worth sharing. Because I have a lot of stress at work, my skin had become dull, not smooth, and I was getting pimples. Rita took the time to really understand my oily-dry combination skin and explained every step clearly. I noticed results quickly--my skin became smoother, clearer, and more balanced. I never feel rushed or pressured, and every recommendation she's made has worked well for my skin. Rita is caring, thoughtful, and genuinely focused on skin health. I trust her completely and highly recommend her. read more

I cannot recommend Rita enough! Every facial I've had with her has been absolutely amazing. She always takes her time with my treatments, making sure I feel comfortable and that my skin gets exactly what it needs. I really appreciate how honest she is about her products--she never tries to push anything unnecessary, and she makes sure nothing will irritate my skin. What I love most is how much Rita truly cares. She wants you to feel confident in your bare skin, and thanks to her, I finally do! She's helped fade my brown spots and clear up my mild adult acne, which has made such a difference. I try to see her every six weeks because my skin just glows afterward. If you're looking for someone who is knowledgeable, caring, and genuinely invested in your skin health, Rita is the one! read more

I've been to six different salons searching for the perfect lash extensions, and this is the place. Rita is not only kind but incredibly skilled at what she does. She works efficiently -- I'm in and out quickly, unlike other places that take 1-2 hours. She really knows her craft and is super flexible with scheduling. Every visit has been a great experience. I highly recommend supporting her business! read more

Rita, your response to me, Susie R, is inaccurate and deflects from the real issue. This was never about consent forms or photos -- it was about how you spoke to and treated me in front of your clients. You spoke to me in a condescending manner, dismissed my concerns, and refused to discuss the issue privately. Your behavior was unprofessional, disrespectful, and completely unnecessary. I remained polite and tried to communicate clearly, but instead of listening, you chose to belittle and embarrass me in front of others. What stands out most is that you seem more concerned with defending yourself than acknowledging how poorly I was treated. Not once have you apologized or taken any accountability for your behavior. Any professional should understand that how you treat a client matters just as much as the service itself. Instead of showing humility or care, you continue to misrepresent what actually happened. read more

I got my facial done today . Khoa was too good and did a awesome job , loved her massage

I would recommend this place. They do not pressure you into anything very polite, customer service is 100%. This is a good place to go

It's been over 4 years since I had my eyebrows microblade and wanted to get them redone. My colleague had referred me to Rita, since her and her daughter have been going to Rita for years for their eye lash extensions and had their eyebrows microblade as well. Rita is very professional and answers all your questions. She takes her time and did an amazing job. I was very happy with the outcome, I can't wait for my eyebrows to fully heal and see the final results! Her salon is super cute and inviting. If you're planning on getting microblade, come see Rita, you won't be disappointed, come in for a consultation. She also does Nano Brows, come and see what is right for you. Also, look on her Yelp and Instagram page to see her eyelash extensions and skin treatments. read more

I'm so amazed how I continue to explore all Rita's services and they all seem to become a must do. I have grown to become hee #1 fan. I'm always stopped and complimented for my flawless look. My long extension lashes look so real & natural. Most ask if they are my real lashes. Rita is so fast with my refills bi-weekly. People love my brow shape and are surprise when I show them my real thin shape brows. Since working from home and all of Rita's services (lip tinting too)... I have worn less makeup and have really enjoyed the easy natural look getting ready. All I use is a little face concealer and blush and I'm good to go. My lashes, brows, and lip tint help me feel so confident to leave the house without my fully made makeup face. I'm going in next for her chemical skin treatment! I've seen the results. With that treatment I won't need concealer!!! I am very thankful Rita continues to stay up to date with all the beauty services. She is always ready to learn and ready to train. It's also nice to go to an establishment and see how clean and sterilize everything is. She use high end products and tools. I thank Rita for helping me look younger and healthier all while aging! She is theee BEST! Parking in great... just drive up! Location is easy to find and get to. Timing is almost always on point. She schedules precisely. Prices- very reasonable & upfront. No hidden fees. References - check out her IG... she has sooo many successful clients! Cleanliness - very neat environment/ sterilized/ protection gloves and mask / eye wear worn as needed. Paper tissue laid out on bed and replenished. She has complimentary drinks and snacks. Products to purchase to help maintain services. She is very responsive and professional. Pain with services- she has creams to help manage! Look at the many looks I posted from the last 5 + years... I can't live without Rita! read more

I have been thinking about Microblading for a year as I am loosing eyebrow hair and using product to fill in the spaces. Also, I have never been someone that wears a lot of make up, but for some reason my eyebrows thinning was wearing on me, so Microblading seemed like the best option. My only fear is that I have had friends do this procedure and look like Groucho Marks. One day while getting my nails done I saw that Rita also did Microblading so I contacted her, received a quote and waited. Then I pulled the trigger and by chance she said she could fit me in at the end of her day. Walking in I had no idea what to expect, but she was very sweet, her new place is warm and inviting and the other staff were also friendly. She took her time is definitely type A and did an amazing job, she is a natural at what she does. Her new place does waxing, high end facials, eyelashes and you will not be disappointed. Rita deserves over 5 stars for sure but if you call you may not get appt right away, be patient it is worth it. read more

Rita is AMAZING! I have been going to her for 7+ years and I drive from San Francisco every 3 weeks to see her for my eyelashes. Her work is the best. I always get compliments on my lashes looking so natural. I highly recommend her. read more

Rita was recommended to me by my hair stylist in Los Gatos, that was nearly 3 years ago. Since that time, I've been seeing her monthly for Lash Extensions, then after a few months branched out a bit trying the Ombre Powder Brows and Lip Blushing. She nailed it, completely transformed my look, framing my face, my eyes looked less tired and my lips have color "all the time.." All I need is a little concealer and blush, RITA did the rest. Rita's work sped up my morning routine exponentially, plus in the mornings I feel better not having to "put on my face" things like primers, liners, shadows, mascaras.. to start my day for a simple day look, it's already there thanks to Rita. I'm in my mid 50's. I love botox, takes off 5-7 years. Add Rita's work, make it 10 years. Through a couple of quick conversations coming or going I found out a bit about Rita. It's clear to me Rita's experience taking over her father's company, creating her own company, educating herself earning a Bachelor of Science in Business, getting an esthetician license, for years attending fashion events to understand the latest trends and techniques has given her alot of experience. She's an extreme perfectionist, with excellent precision. She's an acredited master, and instructor teaching classes in this industry of permanent make up. Rita is absolutely the best, bar none. read more

I had been with Rita since approximately 2016. I usually stay loyal when I find a professional business I like. Even shared my pregnancy journey and med school journey because I trusted her. Until today. I felt attacked over not recollecting the booking of an appt. Furthermore, when I sought clarification she insisted I called her a liar and stated I was "wasting her time" I used to drive from Berkeley to come see her. Referred business over to her and always paid and tipped well. I was succinct with my visits. I would never treat my patients this way and I'm in concierge medicine. Please update your business practice with a streamlined appt confirmation system. Her texts were highly unprofessional and I let slide that the past couple of visits- there was a lack in former quality. Not okay! And I'm glad I am who I am today bc she would've taken me back to my old ways. So long eye candy! In a world where consumers have options you really should be your best professional selves. read more

I've been wanting to get microblade done for quite some time but could not seem to go because I was worried that I would end up with a botched job. My daughter made the appointment to go so I had to go. It was the best appointment I have ever gone to made by someone else. Rita has more than 10 years experience. It shows. I was super impressed with her process and outcome. She does meticulous measurements and work. It did not hurt at all at first....after about 45 mins....it was a lil sensitive and tender, but nothing more than that. She advised it would take approx. 2 hours. But mine took about 1 1/2 hour. I was very pleased and will definitely recommend her. Aside from her great work....you cannot beat her price anywhere! read more

DO NOT GO TO RITA! in my experience, she didn't listen to what I wanted, used wrong color, one eyebrow was different from the other, she refused to fix eyebrows, I'm 64 yrs, he gave me dark 25 yr old eyebrows, she argued with me, when I ask to correct my eyebrows, she saw nothing wrong, DO NOT GO TO EYE CANDY read more

If I could give Rita 10 stars, I would. She is the BEST at everything she does. She has changed my life with her beautiful lash extensions. I've been seeing Rita for about 8 years now. She's been the only person I trust to do my nails for years! But when I found out she was expanding her line of work to facials, eyelash extensions, microblading, etc - I had to give her a try. I am so glad I did! I am obsessed with my lashes and I get compliments everywhere I go! I've referred many friends to Rita who would only say the same - they are also obsessed. My lash extensions are always perfect and last 3-4 weeks! Rita provides only quality service and products while being very quick and thorough. She is also just about the sweetest person ever. Now, I have not tried microblading because Rita doesn't feel I need them (I love that she is honest, and doesn't try to oversell her clients), but I've seen her eyebrow work and I would recommend anyone who needs microblading, to go see Rita ASAP. read more

i was trying to call and make an appointment. the girl who answered the phone was so rude told me they didn't do lash removals and hung up . I called back because I've been there before and told her I've had my lashes removed there before and was looking for an appointment today or tomorrow any time . She told me there was no availability. Didn't even seem like she checked and did not offer another solution like maybe a a different time on another day during the week. Trash service would not recommend anyone wasting their time like I did. read more

I did two different treatments with Nicole, and let me tell you, they both turned out amazing!! First, I had the microblading/ombré powder done to my eyebrows. She recommended the combo for me and I'm so glad she did! Nicole was patient, thorough, and talked through every step of the procedure. Once completed, she did a great job explaining the after care, which is just as important. It's been a few weeks since I had this done, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. They look wonderful! The second treatment I had was the lip blush/tint. She helped me choose the best color for my lips, and again talked through what was happening. Nicole pays attention to every detail of your lips, to make them have the perfect shape, and has you check them at each part to make sure you're satisfied. I can't wait until they heal to see the finished look! I know they will look great! I highly recommend Nicole for both of these treatments. She is very professional, yet down to earth. Her attention to detail and sweet demeanor makes her the perfect person to entrust in. read more

I feel so fortunate to have found this salon. I had my lashes done only 2 1/2 weeks ago at another place and they looked terrible. I actually had an appt there to get them filled but the owner was late, (again) so I decided to try somewhere else, thank goodness for Rita at Eye Candy. She took the other lashes off , put on a new set and they look so pretty. I am very happy and will be seeing her on a regular basis now as well as exploring some of her other services. read more

I have been a lash customer for over ten years. Never have I ever had a lash refill done in less than 20 minutes and was forced to pay $85.00!! My usual lash appointments are at least 45 minutes at minimum for a refill and I pay about $20.00 less. When I questioned the timing I was told to go somewhere else Not sure if it was because I am brown skin but never again!! read more

Highly recommend! Rita is the best of the best. I get my lashes done every 3 weeks and planning on getting eyebrows microbladed this week. Her salon is so comfy and cute! She is always booked so get on her calendar! read more
