She takes the time to explain every step of the facial process which made me feel really comfortable. You can tell she actually knows her stuff and cares about what she's doing. I learned a bit about her story and it's clear she's genuinely passionate about skincare and her clients. It totally makes sense why she's built such long lasting relationships with her customers. She's professional but also really kind and easy to talk to. The whole experience felt relaxing and personal. It's the perfect spot if you want to treat yourself or even give as a gift. I'd definitely come back again.

I did the house facial with Nicole. Great convo about my personal skin history up top. She like MASSAGES your face. It was like the perfect pressure IMO. The product line she has smells good but isn't super heavy (again my jam). She did a light thing that she explained but was relaxing i stead of listening. Having had pretty significant acne in my youth, I'm precious about my derm approved products. Nicole was like would be cool if I could have sat in home care and I understand so you tell me when you are ready. This is also how I would like that handled. So overall, great facial and easy to talk to Nicole!

5/5 -- Aquarius Wellness is a Gem…read more My partner and I booked a couples massage at Aquarius Wellness, and it was easily one of the best spa experiences we've ever had. From the moment we walked in, we were blown away by the atmosphere--the interior is beautiful, calming, and thoughtfully designed. The lighting alone is worth paying for. It's soft, warm, and sets the mood perfectly. Honestly, I'd pay just to sit in that room and unwind. As for the massage therapists--incredible. Both of them were professional, attentive, and genuinely gifted at what they do. They checked in about pressure, focused exactly where we needed, and worked in perfect sync for the couples session. My partner and I walked out feeling lighter, looser, and more relaxed than we've felt in a long time. If you're looking for a place that combines quality, ambiance, and true skill, Aquarius Wellness is the spot. Highly recommend!

It's so important such that I had put off getting my brows threaded (something I used to do ~monthly) since moving here many months ago. Anything less than perfect ratings was not a ringing endorsement for me, so I kept toughing it out until I found myself back in California. Unfortunately, they had grown a bit out of control and I redid my research out of desperation. Not sure why it didn't pop up for me before, but Glow Studio was a diamond in the rough. It had perfect reviews and they seemed like they knew what they were doing. I can, in fact, now confirm that Emily is an absolute goddess and my brows are saved. I got my brows and upper lip waxed for $35, which is pretty standard pricing. The studio is super cute and clean, and it was such a well-cultivated space that I felt relaxed just being there. The process was seamless, and I felt comfortable with Emily doing what she felt was best for my brows. They came out perfectly -- there was clearly cleaning that was done, they're not thin, and the length was maintained. The waxing process took 10-15 minutes and was not painful. I feel the need to talk about Emily, too. First off, she's got the best vibes and is so easy to talk to. She truly knows what she's doing and has your best interest at heart (she will not let you ruin your brows over some ephemeral trend, girlfriend). She thoroughly walks you through the process and explains the whys of things to you (e.g. why you need to avoid retinol and AHAs leading up to a wax sesh). She is so knowledgeable and confident that it's impossible to not trust her. She's so careful and good at what she does, and I can't imagine going anywhere else in this city. I booked online a few days in advance, and it was a straightforward process. You put in a request for when you'd like to come in and then it gets confirmed. Emily personally texted me the morning of with clear instructions on how to get there and was accommodating to me running a few minutes late. There are plenty of other services available, and I'm beyond excited to come back for a facial and more. Cannot recommend Glow Studio enough; am super grateful to Emily for making my entire day, honestly.

Today was my second time visiting. The first time I went I got a lash lift and today I got a facial and another lash lift (which usually lasts 1month and a half for me). Emily is really friendly and attentive to your needs. She was nice enough to give me cleanser and sunscreen samples. My face is feeling softer and moisturized than ever and I will definitely, definitely go back. The only downside is the studio itself is pretty hard to navigate/enter. Make sure to literally use the other door--left door. I kinda struggled and thought there was another entrace and I felt like an idiot. Use the key pad thingy to let them open the door and glow studios is on the third floor.

The products smell amazing and I was surprised at the variety, loofahs, deodorants, lotions, doggy soaps, soap dishes and more. The scents aren't scant either, there are plenty to choose from. I really enjoy that they have shea butter in them and all the ingredients are natural and not a bunch of chemicals. When checking out I asked about online ordering and was given a coupon to use online. The staff member working today remained friendly and upbeat and seemed genuinely excited about their products. It is always nice to buy from small local shops where there is genuine joy and love for their product. I am so happy that I came across this store and will definitely be returning.

As soon as we entered, she came galloping from the back stockroom to do a meet and greet. She's a sweetie. As I said in my previous review, I am a "bar hopper". I like to go around and support a variety of locally owned handcrafted soap boutiques. Since I moved to Illinois five years ago, I've been shopping on the east side of the river. Since I was having on The Hill, I made a point to shop, Herbaria The one thing that was on top of my list, Shave Soap. When shaving, I prefer a good lather from a shave soap over a cream or cream. Herbaria has several scents to choose from and I chose, Bay Rum and Jojoba. I am looking forward to my first shave with my new bar. I also bought a bar of Soapy's Choice. In the past, I've had very furry long haired dogs in the past, but now I have two Chihuahua mixes and they have very short fine hair. So, I thought I'd give Soapy's Choice a try. I'm sure my little girls are going to like showering with daddy. My other bar of soap was, Citrus Oatmeal. I love a good oatmeal soap, it invigorates my skin. To help my new bar last longer in the shower I bought a, Soap Lift. I liked that they had a good selection of colors, I grabbed a grey to match the colors in my primary en suite. The sales associates are personable and not high pressure. They are there to assist you, answer questions and to make recommendations. With their good customer service and Bubbles puppy dog eyes, I guarantee you will not walk out empty handed. When: January 13, 2026 Why: Shave Soap and more

I can't say enough good things about Lark Skin Co.! I've been using their oils, balms, and toners…read moreever since Yelp introduced me to this business at a Yelp Elite Event over a year ago! This past weekend Lark Skin had an INCREDIBLE online sale (Covid-friendly!) for Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday. Items were up to 30% off on Monday, so it made it too easy to order and try some new rave-reviewed products like their Aloe + Willow Bark Vitamin C Serum and Green Coffee + Avocado Awakening Under Eye Oil. (BTW, their oils are magic for skin during all times of the year, but especially winter when it gets cold and dry!) One thing I absolutely love about this company (aside from its amazing products) is the amount of customer service care Lark has for its customers. I had an issue with one of the promotional products not coming up, so I sent a quick email asking for some help. I received a friendly reply from Abby shortly after with an explanation and that she'd get everything sorted out no problem! Lark sends confirmation emails with each order as well as shipping updates along the way to keep their customers informed on when their products will arrive on their doorsteps for convenience (something I greatly appreciate). Thanks so much again, Lark Skin Co. and team, for all your amazing products, help, and care! You make holiday gifting simple and beautiful!

Fire alarm was pulled out of the ceiling. The whole room should be for storage. Massage was inconsistent. Normally they spend equal amount of time on each side and do similar things. My masseur spent maybe half the line on my left side than she did on the right. She also used different techniques on each side, and there was no reason for it. Also, I got the CBD upgrade, but I know she didn't use it but charged me for it. They say it is controlled, so the from desk lady poured it in a cup for the massage lady to add it to the cream. When I was dressing, I saw the oil still in the cup. I didn't question it at that point because I just wanted to get out of there and had a gift card, so I wasn't going to come back anyway to use the rest of the money. Maybe their other locations are better, but don't go here.

The ladies and I planned a girls' getaway with the expectation of a luxury spa day. Let me be clear…read more-- if luxury is what you're seeking, do not book here. From the start, the experience was disappointing. During booking, we informed the spa that our group would consist of nine people. When we arrived, we were told they only had seating for seven -- and two of those seats were stepstools. When we asked for additional seating, we were told that "someone from their company" had already notified us of that limitation. That was not true. The person in our group who coordinated the booking never spoke to anyone by phone, and communication was difficult since everything is done strictly via email. There was no notification given. The service descriptions are also misleading. Several of us booked a 45-minute massage plus a 45-minute salt scrub or mud wrap -- under the impression we were paying for separate services totaling 90 minutes. Instead, we learned (only after questioning why treatments were running behind) that the spa combines the services into one 45-minute session. This was not stated anywhere during booking. To make matters worse, the on-site staff seemed confused as well. While they were very nice, any time we asked questions about what we paid for or how the services worked, the team had to step away to email or call someone else for answers. It felt disorganized and unprofessional from beginning to end. We came expecting a luxury experience and instead we were left feeling misled and uncomfortable before our services even began. If you're planning a special occasion or looking for a premium spa experience, I would not recommend booking here.
