If you want to feel good from the inside out--GO to GINO!!! Gino, a master perfectionist, prides himself on his client's satisfaction and transformation. Have you ever had an intimate service and feel like the esthetician could give two shits about you? It sucks the life out of the whole experience, right? Well, Gino has a tender heart and a listening ear; You'll get a soul lift while he's whipping your skin into shape! This dude is priceless. By the time your treatment is finished, you'll wish you had TWO faces so you could hang out with Gino longer. (Two-faced gals take note!:) Gino is generous with his time and won't recommend a service if it won't benefit you. (SO rare as up-sells are key in this industry). I feel like a million bucks when I leave and wish I could pop by more often. To me, Face It Spa is the motherland. My home. read more

I wish I could bring this place back home with me! Such a cute spot and very close to my hotel, so that was already a major plus. Then I met Giovanni. He is so knowledgeable about all things skin. He took a look at my skin and gave me a treatment plan. I went with it and my skin has never been this glowy! And I live in LA and have had some of the "best" facials there. Thank you, Giovanni! I hope our paths cross again very soon! read more

Very personal and fantastic. My skin already feels really good. Will be back next month!

Gio was very friendly and the shop is very relaxing. I didn't know what would be best for my skin and we talked it through to decide what he thought I needed. 5 days later and my face is still so soft and feels great! Wonderful experience for a 1st timer but also for someone who knows what they want! read more

I have been going to Face It Spa for almost a year now. I started having really bad breakouts out of no where! I researched different places I could go to and someone I follow on Instagram always recommend him. I looked him up and saw nothing but amazing reviews! Almost a year later.... I see why now! Giovanni really cares about his customers throughout the whole process. He literally goes above and beyond! He explains everything thoroughly so that you're comfortable throughout the treatment. He is there every step of the way. I'm so happy I've found someone I can trust and rely to keep me feeling beautiful! Thank you G read more

Face It Spa - Before vs After - Day Spas Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Giovanni seriously has a gift, y'all. I just received my second facial from him and once again, it was a wonderful experience. His spa has a soothing, warm vibe, just like him, and he made my skin GLOW. My skin doesn't just look good, it also FEELS really good and super clean. And all of the products he uses smell amazing. In fact, when I got in my Lyft afterward, the driver said, "I'm not sure what that is, but it sure smells good!" I had a really difficult week and this visit really lifted my spirits. You won't regret going to see him! read more

Face It Spa - After my facial -- the glow is real, y'all! - Day Spas Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

This is a small business owned luxe but low key spa! The owner is VERY knowledgeable on skincare .I came in for a peel and was in and out in appropriate time .Comfortable and warm space and the smell is a plus! Very covid safe as he kept his mask on the whole time .If ever i was back to Cincy I definitely would visit him . read more

I recently went to Face It Spa with my daughter. She has been going for treatment for some time and I've seen a big difference in her skin. The spa is beautiful and extremely soothing. Giovanni is amazing! He is extremely nice and well educated in his skill. He goes above and beyond to make sure you feel comfortable while providing an in depth breakdown of the treatment you're receiving. I was completely relaxed and left feeling refreshed and confident in my appearance. Giovanni is thorough and delightful. He has a new regular customer. read more

I've been going here for years and I still love it. I get a peel every month, follow Giovanni's advice, and my skin is still clear. I finally had a facial last week and IT WAS AMAZING. My skin felt so good and all the redness was gone. Like I looked like a peach, but in a good way. I didn't even put on any makeup the next day. Blah blah blah whatever. Like looking good afterwards wasn't the best part and is the most boring part of this review to write. Don't worry. Giovanni will take care of your skin and do the right things for it. OMG the entire experience was so wonderful. I am a kind of uptight person who doesn't stop talking. I was so relaxed that my eyes were closed and I stopped talking. The massage part was great. Everything he used smelled so good. Like you get wrapped up in a blanket, which sounded awful but wasn't. Really soothing music is playing. It was just one of the best experiences. I get awful headaches that don't go away for a week sometimes. After this, my ghost headache was gone. I felt so wonderful. I feel wonderful just thinking about it now. I'll definitely do this again. read more

See all

All the previous reviews exactly mirror the experience I had here! Giovanni listened really well and got detailed information about my skin and then reccomended a treatment based off my goals and where I am now. He doesnt push products at all or packages, he just knows his work will keep you coming back! My skin is making improvements already and I can't wait to see my continued progress over the next couple months! read more

I realized today that I've been going to Giovanni at Face It for FIVE YEARS now, and we are so lucky to have such a talented aesthetic professional here in Cincinnati, and even more lucky that he is warm, charming, and always a pleasure to visit. The spa is cozy and inviting, and professional without feeling austere or clinical. Giovanni takes the time to ask you what you're trying to achieve, what issues you're trying to improve, and any ingredients you might be sensitive to. His prices are extremely fair for the quality of the products he uses and the work he does, and he is extremely flexible with scheduling when needed. I've had peels, facials, extractions and other treatments at Face It over the years and I will be trusting my face to Giovanni for as long as I possibly can! read more

****THIS PLACE IS A GEM!**** Where do I even begin?! I went to "Face it" after a recommendation from a friends after she had seen such good results from Gio's [the owners] work. He uses PCA products and does everything himself! [#talent] I scheduled a therapeutic facial to start. The experience was lovely [swoon!] There is a private room with a cozy facial/massage chair/table?- it has warm blankets, it's low lit, candles, soft music playing [so dreamy!] After the facial we discussed our plan of action for my skin. Gio is very knowledgeable and knew right away what our next steps were. I am now doing peels every 6 weeks to clear up my skin. I am on my 2nd one and loving the results. My skin feels awake, bright, refreshed, smoother, acne marks fading- among others! I can't wait to continue the treatments. The best part is the peels take 20mins [so easy and quick] Gio is an amazing guy who will make you feel nothing but comfortable and welcome. He is the kind of guy you want to be best friends with [trust me] I look forward to every experience I have here. I also purchased a couple PCA products [and don't worry- Gio doesn't push you at all!] and fell in love with all of them. Definitely will be repurchasing. This place is a gem!! Go have a relaxing day with Gio. read more

LOVED my experience at the Face It Spa!! Giovanni was so kind to me and I felt like he really cared about my skins well being! Not just trying to get me to spend money! I got my first peel and my skin texture is like GLASS it's so smooth! I'll 100% be back and recommending my friends and family to go too! read more

Giovanni is absolutely amazing. I'm new to the world of spas, facials, peels etc and he made me realize what I've been missing! I highly recommend Face It Spa to everyone- Giovanni truly creates an individualized experience for all of his clients. Oh, and my skin is glowing like the sun! read more

Giovanni is amazing. I've always struggled with acne and oily skin. I was on the brink of giving up just because proactiv wasn't working for me and it was supposedly the best. I travel to Cincinnati for work pretty often and came across Giovanni's Face It Spa. I can't tell you how much better he has made my skin. It's clear now! It's really changed my life. They say you look good, you feel good. Getting rid of my acne has helped transform my life. I just have so much more confidence now and it shows in my work and everywhere else. Long story short...Face It Spa has worked wonders for my skin! I'm not trusting it with anyone else. Thanks Giovanni for helping clear my acne and being so kind while doing so. Much appreciated! I'll be seeing you for my next appointment in a couple days read more

I cannot go a month without my Giovanni! I have been seeing him for over two years and there has been 2 or 3 instances where I had to skip a month and my face showed the neglect. My face NEEDS his touch. When I leave Face It Spa, my skin glows and looks radiant. I am 43 years old and still get carded for alcohol thanks to this man. Giovanni is so wonderful to see that I now consider him a friend. Do yourself a favor and book an appointment STAT. You only have once face, face it! read more

What a great salon! So happy to have found this little oasis of beauty right in the centre of Cincy. It is a privately owned one-bed salon that offers a variety of procedures to make you look gorgeous! Giovanni, the owner, is very professional and making appointments is extremely easy, as he is very responsive through emails and texts. His flexibility is very appreciated. I came for a series of chemical peels and immediately felt like I'm in good and knowledgeable hands. That's a huge advantage of dealing with the owner himself, he cares and it shows in the quality of your experience! When you buy a package, it is ok to mix and match between peels and microdermabrasion, or between different level of acid strength: full freedom of choice! For me the best part: the peel only takes about 20 minutes, efficient! I have yet to finish my series, but after 5 peels I already noticed a great improvement. Giovanni keeps a track of all the procedures, he scores the effects on a chart, notes all the cosmetics you use. I think it is a great way to reach your goals and get the results you want. Complimentary touch up after procedures is great when you still need to show up somewhere. Giovanni carries PCAskin cosmetics, of which I tried the sunblock and after peel calming cream. Wonderful! I would highly recommend for anyone looking to improve their skin condition. Great service, real results and convenient location! read more

What a find, a little gem in the middle of nowhere downtown. Giovanni is the best! I was in from out of town and needed something to do while waiting for my boyfriend. Such a delight. And to have glowing skin afterwards is a nice benefit to a fun appointment. If I lived in the area I would buy a series and make Giovanni a priority. read more

I recently enjoyed a consultation with the wonderful Giovanni! From the very start Giovanni was extremely professional, kind and made me feel so comfortable. The setting was extremely relaxing, and the peel was soothing and effective. Giovanni really takes pride in his work - and it shows. His patience and thoroughness made it clear this was a worthy investment to take care of my skin. One of the things I appreciated most was Giovanni's honesty through it all. Discussing with me my skin regimen, and effective ways to take care of it - he recommended products that didn't break the bank! It was comforting knowing that he was transparent about was he really does to support that mission by visiting for a facial when you see fit. Seriously, such a lovely experience overall. Will absolutely return! read more

The owner personally performed my chemical peel. He was very knowledgeable, and gave me really good consultation about my skin. Really friendly, very professional, the best med spa I've been to EVER! Will definitely be going back! read more

I was in town on business and saw on Yelp that they sold PCA brand serum so I went over at 1235 pm on Tuesday since they are open from 10 am to 7 pm. Door locked, lights off, no sign on the door saying they stepped out for a few min. Horrible, and if I need a facial when I'm in Cincinnati soon I will look elsewhere to a place that is open when they say they are. read more

Giovanni is amazing!!! The most relaxing facial but also results driven. My skin looks like porcelain when he is done. Highly recommend for any facial, dermaplaning or chemical peel. read more

My first experience at Face It Spa was absolutely lovely. Scheduling was easy over email. Giovanni is very friendly and amazing at his job. I got the 1-hour facial treatment and felt like my skin was glowing afterwards. The neck and shoulder massage was also wonderful and relaxing. I will definitely be back! read more

I had an amazing experience here! Giovanni talked with me about what what I wanted for my skin. He also made sure all my questions were answered. The facial and environment were extremely relaxing. I didn't want to leave! My skin is glowing and feels so fresh. I will most definitely be coming back! read more

Thank you so much for my microdermabrasion today. Can't wait to see the continued results of our skin care plan. The atmosphere was wonderful and relaxing from the moment I walked in. Such a great appointment. I highly recommend Face It Spa Cheryl Dole read more

I have been getting my peels at this location for years. What's sets them apart is the individualized attention Giovanni gives you. I drive over a hour to come to Face It Spa & my skin thanks me. I also really like the cleanser I get here, its reasonably priced and really helps my adult acne. The space is also so cozy yet modern in design & smells amazing just walking in the door! read more

I had such a wonderful experience at Face It Spa! Giovanni is so warm, welcoming, and professional. I asked him to recommend a service based on my skin's needs. He recommended a peel, which I had never done before. I'm sure you've all heard horror stories about peels like I have, but my experience was nothing like then. It was gentle and Giovanni made sure i was comfortable while he talked me through the process. The end result was glowing skin like I've never had! A day later, my husband is still commenting on how great my skin looks. Giovanni also discusses skincare products with me and made some great recommendations (without pushing any particular line of products). You definitely need to go see Giovanni! read more

Giovanni is the best! Not only is he an absolute pleasure to be around, he does excellent work for a very reasonable price. His place is beautiful and clean, and he makes you feel right at home. He's great about reminding you when your appointments are, and is very flexible. All of my friends who see Giovanni have experienced great results. Definitely recommend Face It! read more

Giovanni at Face it Spa is the best! He is extremely professional, personable, and he does an amazing job. My skin is always flawless after his peels. And the place is in a super cute building conveniently located downtown, with plenty of parking! read more

Giovanni really took care of me and did a great job!! Made me feel like a princess! :) When I am in the area again, I will go back! I highly recommend it. read more

Went to Face It Spa for the first time with my friend during a girls' weekend. We both got the 30 minute facial and it was pure heaven!! We both felt amazing afterwards and couldn't stop talking about it! I was so surprised to get a face and shoulder massage with the facial - totally unexpected! Worth every penny and my friend and I will likely make this a new tradition every time I come into town. read more

I'm so happy I decided to go to Face It Spa. My skin has transformed since coming here....Giovanni is amazing, hands down he knows what he is doing!!!! read more

I received my first peel ever, and Giovanni was informative and flexible. He also has a warm personality and gentle touch.

Excellent spa in the heart of downtown. First class service in a beautiful location. The 60 minute Face It facial was amazing. Booking with Giovanni was efficiently completed via email. Don't delay in trying out this little gem of a business. read more

I love this place! Giovanni is super nice, talented, friendly, and helpful! I have been here 3 times, once for a micro-dermabrasion and twice for chemical peel. I see the results every time. I highly recommend this place! I am sending my husband there today :) You won't be disappointed. Meter parking is free after 5 and there are a lot of meters available. read more

Highly recommend getting a facial here!! Giovanni is great, he takes the time to evaluate your skin to see what you need. More importantly I really appreciate that he's not just trying to get you to come back for more services, he told me that my skin was great and I should just come every few months or when I felt I needed it. It was very refreshing to have someone who honestly just wants your skin to be healthy...not just making a buck. Prices are extremely reasonable for the service you get! I will definitely be back. read more

What a wonderful experience! I have gone myself and it is completely evening out my skin tone as well as my teenage daughters. Incredible results, fair pricing, and beautiful environment! read more

Giovanni is absolutely amazing! Beautiful place and great services/products. Definitely recommend for facials or education about your entire face. read more

Face it Spa is the best in Cincinnati. Giovanni is an absolute gem. He truly gets to know your skin and customizes each facial to your specific needs. He understands how the seasons affect your skin and is always 10 steps ahead. His prices are very reasonable. As is his facial products. I love the by appointment only. Although he is open 10 to 7 he does lock the door when you are receiving your facial in his spa room. I love that you have his undivided attention. I would never go elsewhere. All my friends and family that I have referred feel the same. 10 stars!!! read more

Book your appointment now...and then read this after you've got your confirmation! This little gem in Cincy is NOT TO BE MISSED! My friend and I went down for a girls day and were blown away by the spa, the services and, most importantly, how great our skin looked after our facials. Giovanni treated us like VIPs from the moment we booked our appointments and was so much fun to talk to about the area's attractions. As for the facial...it couldn't have been better. The table is comfy, he wraps you in a warm blanket cocoon and then goes to work. From the moment Giovanni starts you can tell you're getting his utmost attention. He genuinely cares about treating your skin and ensuring every area of your face, neck and shoulders receive some love. His massage is to die for...unreal. The last thing to rave about is the price! Totally jaw-to-the-floor that his customized one-hour facial is only $70! This same service at a larger salon will probably hit your wallet for 2x that price. Face It Spa is a must visit!! Enjoy :) read more
