    Immediately after my facial
    Skylar E.

    I have always had bad skin and my sister referred me to go see Kelly for a facial and I couldn't be happier. I've been seeing her for over half a year now and I have seen such an improvement in my skin! She has given me great product recommendations. Kelly does the best work I've seen and I wouldn't go to anyone else!

    Kelly is the only person I will let touch my skin! She is absolutely amazing, everyone should make an appointment with her! My skin has never felt better :)

This location is tucked into The Arbor Village Center so it's surrounded by other eateries and businesses. Most people familiar with this plaza know that parking is a headache during lunch and dinner hours. I would not want to be here if it was overly crowded, but thankfully that wasn't the case when we were there on a Saturday afternoon. My friend recently visited Japan so she wanted to stop by to show me their popular haircare products. We ended up spending a whole hour here and I've added more products to my wishlist for the near future. I also walked out with a purchase and can't wait to try it. Notes: ~ Hours of operation are 11:30 AM - 8:30 PM daily ~ Opened in 2018 and it's a smaller store but they still carry wide range of cosmetics, skin/hair/oral/ personal hygiene care products, toys, snacks and lifestyle items (not just Japanese ones, but also trendy Korean and a couple of Chinese brands) ~ Prices are actually not outrageous (some products appear cheaper than the Japanese and Korean markets) ~ Aisles are a bit more narrow here so please be patient ~ There's a spacious sink in the back of the store for hand washing after testing out the wide variety of beauty products ~ Store associates are nice and ready to help find any product ~ Partnered with Fivestars for their loyalty program ~ Sometimes they offer deals like spend $50+ to receive a free gift ~ Products approaching end of shelf life are placed right by the checkout counter (items can be between 30-70% off) ~ Mobile payment accepted

    5/5 stars - Fantastic experience over two days at The Beauty Medics!…read more I had microneedling with PRP yesterday with Allison and lip filler today with Breanna, and both were outstanding. Allison as always very professional, gentle, and incredibly thorough. She explained every step, made sure I was comfortable with numbing, and the treatment felt manageable even though I was nervous. The PRP addition has my skin already feeling tighter and more radiant (even on day 1), and the redness/tightness is exactly what she prepared me for. She sent me home with excellent aftercare products, the Rescue Smoothing Complex and mask have been lifesavers for calming things down overnight. I felt completely taken care of. Today I returned for lip filler with Breanna. Breanna was kind, precise, and listened closely to my goal: subtle but noticeable plump with natural definition and that sexy perk. She checked my healing skin from the microneedling and confirmed it was safe to proceed. The injections were quick and comfortable, and my lips already look fuller and more balanced, I'm so happy with the natural result! Both Allison and Breanna are skilled, caring, and knowledgeable. The team made back-to-back treatments feel seamless and stress-free. If you're thinking about microneedling/PRP, lip filler, or any combo, this is the place to go. Thank you for the great care and beautiful results, I'm excited to see everything settle! Highly recommend!

I just wanted to shout out Ulta for being a great place to get my bangs trimmed. I couldnt believe it was $10. However, one star was off because I didnt like the vibes my hair stylist was giving off. I dont know if it was because I arrived early or if it's because I existed at all (I wasnt rude), but this "Ashley" seemed like she hated her life. It made me feel bad but I nonetheless tipped 30% anyway... But amazing shoutout to the ladies wandering around the store to help.

My appointment with the makeup artist was scheduled for 11:00 a.m., but she didn't even start until about 11:15. I was told it would be quick, yet somehow it still dragged on until around 12:20. She kept reassuring me it wouldn't take that long but had no mindfulness of timing. My event was at 12:30 which I ended up being late to. From the moment I sat down, the entire experience was a mess. She repeatedly turned my chair away from the mirror so I couldn't see what she was doing. That's a huge red flag, and by the end I understood why. Instead of turning me toward the mirror to reveal the finished look like every competent makeup artist does, she handed me a tiny handheld mirror and told me to curl my own lashes. I felt so terrified when I saw my face in the mirror, but she kept telling me I looked cute so I tried to believe her. My skin was horribly textured, flakey and the foundation was horribly heavy. I asked for a natural, everyday look. What I got was a thick, cakey foundation that highlighted every pore and every bit of texture on my face. The eyeliner was uneven and looked rushed. She also pressed far too hard around my eyes throughout the application, which was uncomfortable as hell and completely unnecessary. I felt like she was stroking my eyeballs. The entire appointment was filled with comments about how "cute" I looked, but confidence doesn't make up for bad technique. The makeup looked terrible. It was sloppy, heavy-handed, and nothing like what I asked for. The whole experience was shocking. She seemed really nice and overconfident. I thought I was in good hands. But now I realize that a makeup artist that doesn't involve their client in the process of figuring out what they want as a look is a red flag. Between the lateness, the lack of communication, being hidden from the mirror, and the poor quality of the makeup, this appointment was an absolute waste of my time and money. This individual ruined my special event. I was a whole hour late to my event. I sobbed in the parking lot and had a panic attack after I ended up paying for the service because I was gaslit by being told I got a cute makeover. The person that took my payment gave me a dirty look when I declined giving a tip. I walked in expecting a professional service and walked out wondering what the hell happened. I would never book with Ulta Beauty again, and I absolutely cannot recommend her. Be cautious of this locations makeovers.

I received 100 units of Jeuveau and between their amazing walk in special and a $40 off code that's eligible every 90 days, I saved $340. Total came out to $960 and honestly... for a mini face lift? Yes please. I love this for me. The front desk was also incredible. Megan was so personable, friendly, and welcoming. (Total Libra energy.) You can feel the good energy the moment you walk in, which says a lot about the culture of this place. I love everyone here, but Ashley is officially my new favorite. I'll absolutely be back when it's time for a little refresh. Thank you CC. And to address a comment I saw saying injectors ask for tips... that is wild. I actually tried twice to tip Ashley because she was that amazing, and she kindly declined both times. It's crazy how far some people will go to slander when the reality is CC delivers an exceptional experience with fair pricing, even though they could easily charge much more given their national recognition. As the saying goes, when you're doing something right, the noise gets louder. Queens don't flinch, they glow.

The medical assistant Yoseli has helped me every time to get comfortable in the treatment room and has asked me about all my concerns with compassion and patience.

I came one day for a Diamond Glow facial and was helped by Vanessa. She's so kind, and really takes the time to help you figure out what your concerns are and how to accomplish your goals. The facial was so relaxing, and she makes the environment calming and safe, I almost fell asleep! For all of my actives and injections, I see Jessica. Jessica will forever be my go-to person. Since she's a nurse practitioner, not only does she have the knowledge about everything skin related and medical, but she has that compassion that is ingrained in all nurses. She has transformed me, it is absolutely shocking the difference she has made in me. Not only has she helped me achieve my skin goals, but she has also helped instill in me the confidence that I have been chasing for years in myself. Every single person here has helped transform me into the most beautiful version of myself, and I am forever grateful to all of the staff here. It actually wasn't until I wrote this review when I saw my before and after pictures that I really saw what a difference the products and care have done for me. I have been through it. Hair loss, hyperpigmentation, skin redness, wrinkles, irritation... you name it. It's been a rollercoaster, and all of them have been with me through the entire process, guiding me and reassuring me the entire way.

I highly HIGHLY recommend coming here for all of your skin concerns and have recommended them to all my friends and family. They have your back for life!

Understanding Korean skincare is still a bit of a mystery to me as there are many steps to caring for your skin and this store has so many products to support that method of loving on your skin and taking good care of it! Of everything I've bought here, I love them all (except for the one mask that irritated my skin a bit, but I think that is just because it was my skin. Perhaps it's great for other people). I have gotten many masks here and have loved them all. I've also gotten moisturizer, toner, cleanser here. I did try a shampoo once but my hair didn't totally love it. That's ok. Someone else's hair will. And their little hand creams are great gifts and perfect for throwing in your purse. They moisturize well. My most recent risk buy was lipstick and I love it! I come here every time I pass through town. See you again soon!
