I found Liwei Spa through Groupon and got a great deal on a deep cleansing facial that also included a shoulder massage. I was really impressed with how clean and relaxing the spa was, and the service was excellent from start to finish. Queenie did my facial and did an amazing job! I loved the variety of treatments used throughout the session, including serums, steamer, mask, extractions, and more. Everything felt very thorough, but also incredibly relaxing. The shoulder massage was great as well! I left feeling refreshed, relaxed, and my skin feels great hours later! I would definitely come back and highly recommend Liwei Spa! read more

If you want perfect eyebrows, see Moon at Liwei Beauty.She takes her time to ensure every stroke is precise and completely symmetrical. Her skill and consistency are incredible--I get so many compliments! I moved to Philadelphia, but I happily make the trip back every year for my touch-up because she's simply the best and the only person I trust with my brows. read more

Amazing, such a phenomenal facial (I had a gua sha facial with shoulder massage). My facialist was JOANNE, and she has MAGICAL hands. Not only is she so fun to talk to (what a smart woman), she knows when to let you relax. Her massage techniques were out of this world, and the gua sha is quite difference/intense (and she warned me about it beforehand) but sooooo needed. I will definitely be back! read more

Since I work so close to Chinatown, I am spoiled with choices for skin care and body care. I have tried several establishments over the years and every single one has been excellent. I just recently was able to give LIWEI a try, using a Groupon for a facial. My facial was with Queenie, and she was superb at her Craft. My facial started off with a cleansing ritual, very gentle very thorough. Followed by a lengthy facial massage which I cannot stress enough. We do not realize how badly we need these things to take care of our skin. I am so grateful that I have the opportunity. Followed by a steam session with light extraction, and then some oil, and then Queenie began the Gua sha treatment and then finally a cold mask and I was left to relax for about 10 minutes with that mask on. the entire session was just over an hour and it was 100% worth the value. I will definitely be on the lookout for any deals and sales that LIWEI will be offering in the future as I completely am a fan of their work. read more

I found out about Liwei when I saw a deal for a custom facial and shoulder massage on Pulsd. I've only gotten a facial one other time, so I was looking forward to feeling pampered. I made a reservation a couple of weeks in advance and they texted me a few days beforehand to confirm the appointment. When I arrived, I showed them the voucher and was led to a room to change into a tubular top. When my esthetician, Moon, returned, she started on the facial. I have really dry skin so she recommended the cleansing facial as opposed to microdermabrasion which she said would be more dehydrating. She started by applying lots of lotion to My face and vigorously applying it. Then she steamed my face for about ten minutes. After my pores were open, she began extracting any impurities from my skin. It's a little painful since they have to use a needle, but nothing unbearable. Next, she applied a facial mask on me. Finally we ended with the shoulder massage and another round of lotion on my face. In the end, my face felt so radiant. Before my session, it was really dull and dry. I could definitely notice a difference. My fiance who also did a facial noticed that all his blackheads had been removed. Overall, I thought the Pulsd deal was a great value. It's not a luxury spa or anything but the experience was relaxing and the facility seemed clean. They also do microblading and eyelash extension there too. My one critique is that they can be a little bit pushy with selling follow-up services. When we were ready to pay the tip, I felt like they were hovering over us and trying to get us to buy a package for more sessions. I didn't want to have to decide in the moment. I would prefer more Time to think about these things before buying on the spot. read more

I had a pleasant experience with Joanne doing facial massage yesterday. She used the Do'terra essential oil and it was so relaxing and heavenly. The smell of the essential oil that she concocted was so wonderful that I almost felt asleep. The results were great, my face were firmer and moist . I would love to have this facial again. read more

** This review is for Joanne and her facial treatments ** I highly recommend Joanne for any facial treatments. I usually get the hour-long Deep Cleansing Facial with light extractions and oxygen treatment. Joanne is tenured and experienced (she's also an instructor at the Liwei School so she knows her s***). She is professional, attentive, speaks excellent English, and her technique is gentle and soothing. I have sensitive skin (which has reacted negatively at other spas) and miraculously my skin is completely fine with Liwei's products. I once received an advanced IPL (laser tightening) treatment and my skin felt so much smoother and tighter after! You do feel a little pain during the process but it goes away immediately. You cannot use retinoids for 2 weeks but it's worth it! read more

I was so excited to get here and get a massage. Had a 12:30 appointment arrived at 12:20. Didn't get called in to be seen until 12:47. Massage wasn't quite what I expected it be. They used a cupping machine that honestly I wasn't sure if it felt good or horrible. But I left there not feeling the way I wanted to feel. Which was relaxed and rejuvenated. Nope. My back is killing me and it's all bruised up. Hated the method of the massage. Not a fan. People were nice tho. Would I come back? Nah. I like the old fashioned hand full body massages. read more

Liwei Beauty Spa - Front desk - Day Spas Near Me - New York, New York

I took a Groupon deal here and was satisfied (please rem to tip in cash on the full price not the Groupon price) but doubt if my facial was 150$ worth (which is the original amount). It's clean and all but like my aesthetician didn't ask me for allergies etc. she was nice otherwise. Extraction was relatively painless. The shoulder massage lasted for a minute. Face massage was nice for about 5 mins So overall the facial was nice but won't go back to pay 150 for it and then 30 in tips which would be almost 200! Then it wouldn't be worth it read more

Updating my review because I recently got a great facial here at 4PM BUT woke up with an infected eyelid (stye) the next morning. When I notified the spa there was no apology, just an offer for me to come back in so they could "smother" it, to which I declined because what does that even mean? They then merely told me to ice it, which is also incorrect advice for treating styes at home. The pricing is also inconsistent on their website and what they have posted in the store, which they honored when I pointed it out but it still feels ick. I really LOVE the staff here but I don't think I'll be back after this. read more

First time doing lash lift at Liwei (I have done lash lift elsewhere before), and sadly also first time giving a one star review because it just cannot get worse than this. I feel the need to share my experience so no one else has to go through this. First of all (I should've seen this as a red flag), they make you pay before you receive service, which is quite weird. This is my first time having to pay before receiving beauty services. (I didn't purchase their service on Groupon. I just made a regular booking) My technician was not gentle with my eyes at all. She was rubbing / cleaning my eye pretty hard prior to the lash lift treatment. Which already gave me a bad feeling because when it comes to eyes & lashes, it's so delicate and sensitive you would assume extra care would be taken when working around the area. I fell asleep during the treatment, but I woke up from time to time and know that my technician has repeated the lash lift procedure 2-3 times. She explained that my eyes were watery so the lashes didn't curl well, and she was going to re-do it. (Um maybe because you weren't gentle at all and kept rubbing/poking my eye that's why my eyes were watery? She also accidentally rubbed my actual eye ball as she was trying to clean off the glue or something, of course my eyes would tear up) It wasn't until my technician's next customer arrived that she finally gave up trying to repeat the procedure again on my lashes. She didn't even dare give me a hand held mirror or ask me to look into the mirror on the wall. Before I even get a chance to see how bad it is or said anything about it, as she was walking out of the room, she said if I'm not satisfied with the result I can come back and they'll redo it for free next time. I tried to ask what happened and if it had happened to other customers. They were being vague and said sometimes it's the glue, sometimes it's the technician. Anyways that means it had happened before. Their only solution is that I could come back and they'll re-do it for free. So I think throughout the whole lash lift treatment, there was probably too much chemicals or it stayed on my lashes for too long (as she repeated the procedure 2-3 times), my lashes were so badly damaged. If you look at the photos, my lashes now look like pubes. A few of the lower lashes were also damaged and is now pointing upwards. God knows how long I'll have these pubes lashes until they "go back to normal" or if new ones would grow out? My technician had the face to give me her tip envelope after this. Can you believe it? LOL Anyways, DO NOT get lash lift at Liwei. read more

They really finesse the eye brows here. 10/10. I would recommend you request Moon, she's amazing! She's been my person since day one. She works with you.... And Incase you think microblading (6D) is painful, it's not. I fell asleep. It did hurt the first time. I would recommend you go in earlier so they have time to set the numbing agent on you. read more

Great experience! I signed up for the microdermabrasion and Moon assessed my skin and recommended against it and suggested the three-in-one facial instead (cleansing, pore, detox, hydro-lifting) and I really appreciate it as I don't know anything about facials! Really calming and felt creat. I was a bit nervous for the extraction as I've heard bad stories but Moon did a great job. Definitely want to go again if my budget allows for it! Highly recommend. (Signed up through class pass) read more

Heartbroken, they did a disaster on my touch up, I was clear on how I like my brows. I have full brows to start. You can see they shaved most of my brows in the photo I've uploaded. Poor communication. Poor quality. The person that did my touch didn't ask any questions.. Now look at the disaster they did. read more

Liwei Beauty Spa - Different shape eye brows. - Day Spas Near Me - New York, New York

I went in to do a Deep Cleansing facial. I dont recommend, way too overpriced and is a basic and superficial service. Liwei Beauty uses very cheap product, you can tell from the smell and texture. They also used a very cheap sheet mask that you could purchase from Walmart and left it on my face for 30 min. They ask you to pay a $4 tax and 18% tip when the tip should be at the discretion of the customer. I wouldnt go again or suggest to friends and family. read more

Response to Management: Thank you for improving your service. I hope other customers have a much better experience than I did. read more

Liwei Beauty Spa - Back again, i love Suki! Best facial in china town! - Day Spas Near Me - New York, New York

I wanted to glam up a little bit for my birthday so I decided to get my lashes done! I usually get mink lash extensions but they can irritate me sometimes so I wanted to try something different. I purchased a Groupon for the lash lift since I've heard good things about it. My technician was super friendly and led me through the process. I have really thin and short lashes so I'm obsessed with the results!! I'll probably stick to lash lifts instead of extensions since they feel so much more natural and comfortable! My lashes look so much better even without any mascara on -- and they look even more voluminous with it on! Note: I'm also thinking about buying the Groupon for microblading since I read another review from someone (not having virgin brows) so stay tuned for another review! read more

I came to get a facial because they have really good reviews. I also read the website and it stated that they will price match so you don't have to purchase vouchers from the third-party site (Groupon, pulsed). so I book the appointment and head to the spa. upon arrival I'm greeted by the aesthetician and she asked me which service I was interested in I told her the deep pore facial or the three in one facial. I asked her to assess my skin to figure out which treatment would be better for me, she looked at the add I showed her and decided to go with the oxygen, hydro lifting and deep pore detox facial. She didn't assess my skin and said it was better for me (it was a higher priced facial deep pore was $67 and the other was $83) - Their equipment is old and not high functioning. The steamer is weak - not enough to open the pores for a deep clean. Throughout the facial you hear the receptionist negotiating deals and confirming appointments. They want you to pay in cash and push their packages during and after your service. I came home and my still was still congested - a lot of white heads. I would not recommend. read more

Liwei Beauty Spa - This was the morning after the facial. - Day Spas Near Me - New York, New York

Was excellent! Had Mandy and she was terrific. I had the guasha facial! It went well!

I chose this place as they had many amazing reviews and boy was I happy to come here today. Grace saved my eyebrows! Before I had spots where my hair didn't grow. She made it much more attractive now and even! I definitely recommend 6D microblading versus the 3 D. The whole process was very comfortable and relaxing. I even added the inner eyeliner tattoo service. I will continue to come here for touch ups. Grace is the BEST! read more

Liwei Beauty Spa - 6D eyebrow mucroblading - Day Spas Near Me - New York, New York

Had some Groupon bucks to use up and decide to use them on a carbon facial. Ellis took me and did a fine job with the service itself. However, it had been a couple of months since my last facial and I had a few more blackheads than usual. Nothing crazy but definitely was looking forward to extractions. Ellis immediately started grilling me about my skincare routine and everything she thought was wrong with it. (As if I don't know how to take care of myself.) I use too many brands, I don't exfoliate enough, etc. She kept on saying how "congested" my skin was and making me feel like I'm a slob for not dedicating my life solely to getting facials. I wanted to say, "Yes, I am aware that I have blackheads. That's why I'm here. If I had perfectly poreless, doll-like skin, I would not be in need of your services." -_- It was obvious the negging was an upsell tactic, especially at the end when she tried to sell me a package and said I need to come back every two weeks (!) for services. Admittedly, but for the running critique, the facial wasn't terrible, so I asked her for some time to think about it. She started with high-pressure tactics (i.e. sense of urgency) and that's where they lost me. TLDR: Try it out if you've got Groupon bucks to blow and want a decent, inexpensive facial. But prepare yourself for lots of running commentary about your pores and upselling. read more

Had the 7D eyebrow micro blading done by Moon. She took her time to do a great job. It was a bit painful but I loved the results. I plan to go see her to try the lash extensions. She did try to sell me the facial package which I may try in the future. I highly recommend her for micro blading. read more

I came to Liwei for a facial deal that I got on Pulsd. $49 for a 60 minute facial, which is valued at $150. There were different facial options, but my aesthetician didn't ask and instead evaluated by skin and recommended a certain type, which I really appreciated. Initially, I was thinking about the gua sha facial, but I'm glad she did the oxygen facial because it hydrated my skin 1000% The studio itself is quite small, no frills. I believe there are only 2-3 rooms from what I saw. The lady across was getting a massage, and I could hear all their dialogue, but I wasn't bothered. I was really impressed by the results of my facial. I had a lot of rough, dry areas that I couldn't fix with thick moisturizer. My skin hates NY winters! but the effects lasted about a week, and my skin was so smooth and hydrated. I felt like my skin care products at home worked even better and my makeup application was smoother. At the end of my facial, they offered me a package, but because of their hours (last appt ~5:00), it's hard for me to come after work so I opted out. otherwise, I'd recommend for a simple/no frills facial read more

I found this place @ Groupon when there was a promotion for extra 20/25% off. My total about $200. A little history, I had ombre brows done in Brooklyn 2-3 years ago where it was uneven. Then went to Korea a year ago, had a 4/6D brow done where they color corrected, microbladed the front and ombre for the end of my brows. However the color faded 50% and the front of my brows is barely visible anymore. So I've decided it's time for a touch up/re-do. Arrived here actually 10min late d/t MTA . Came up the elevator and the office was legit at 10-11AM where they can see u coming out of the elevator. There were 4-5 beautician cramped up behind the desk. Came in and filled out a general intake form and a consent regarding the procedure which took less than 5min. Was also informed then tax was not included and would need to pay an extra $21 after she redeemed my voucher. But honestly, it's fine. Then I went into the room behind the front desk. Numbing cream for 30 min then another 10 cus it was till painful. She then drew my brows in. The whole process was painless and I love the result. They suggest a healing gel for $20. So in addition to the Groupon I paid about $42+tip. My beautician is Grace. There's a 2 month touchup/perfecting session for additional $100 if you opt in. Grace was amazing, she took care of all my concern. Thank you! read more

I would strongly recommend this place. It provides various and professional services in individual rooms. So, you would have a sense of privacy. It is also a perfect beauty spa for students to visit because it offers basic packages that I bought most of the time. As a 35+ years old client, I have been visiting this place for facial treatments for 10+ years. Sometimes I use basic treatment, sometimes hydro and often use both at the same day depending the need of my skin. I go there every 2 weeks to have them to maintain my skincare. I am glad that I still look refreshed and young. *ps. The profile picture I just took today and a day after a facial treatment. read more

Is there an option to give Liwei Beauty Spa 10 stars!! I got my lashes done here for two packages. Every time I was super impressed by their job. There was no stinging from the glue, their hand were light on my head. They were able to follow my specific directions given my eye shape! Staff here is super nice and friendly. Answer all the questions I have. Don't even think about whether you should book an appointment or not... just go now. I recommend this place to my friends. They have the same amazing experience as well. read more

Liwei Beauty Spa - Eyelash extensions - Day Spas Near Me - New York, New York

Update: a huge cluster of eyelashes just fell off. And when I say huge, I mean HUGE - maybe 6-8 false lashes attached to one of my real lashes. The Groupon I bought advertised SINGLE lash extensions. I will most definitely not be returning. Ordered a Groupon for mink eyelash extensions (110 pieces). Moon was my technician. I showed her a reference picture of what I wanted beforehand and emphasized that I wanted something natural, but the results were still way too dramatic for my liking and honestly looked nothing like what I had asked for. My consultation with her also felt extremely rushed. On top of that, I had made an appointment for 11:30, but still had to wait an extra 20 minutes. Note: you have to pay tax on top of the purchased Groupon (I had to pay an extra $9). Overall, my experience was mediocre. I don't think I'll be returning. read more

Queenie is amazing and friendly! She's very skilled and takes the time to understand your skincare needs. I felt comfortable and relaxed throughout my treatment, and she did a fantastic job. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a great esthetician read more

This review is belated but I got my brows microbladed at Liwei Beauty in March 2019 and touched up in May 2019. It's safe to say that microblading changed my life! My brows are quite light and sparse - and it was a big insecurity of mine. After getting my brows microbladed, it helped me feel more confident without putting much/any effort into my brows. The microbladed brows were very dark initially but looked very natural after the healing process. The ladies at Liwei Beauty will take care of you although there is some pain during the process, the numbing cream helps tremendously. I'd recommend Liwei Beauty to anyone who is interested in getting their brows microbladed! read more

Terry, Minnie (classes), Willow (facials) are great, such lovely people! Specific shoutout to Moon (microblading), she's really good, the best really. The only downside is how pushy they are with you paying more right before a service, would be a much better experience if they focused on what was agreed, rather than making more money. It puts the whole experience off, hence one less star. read more

It was really good. I had the facial by Amy. She was very nice and did a good job. I used a Groupon. Just had to pay tax and tips which was fine. Would recommend this place to a friend. read more

I purchased a Groupon for microblading at Liwei. After my microblading procedure, they scheduled an appointment a month out for my touch up. Come day of touch up, I arrive for my appointment and they ask me for $100 before making any adjustments. That fee was never communicated to me. I was told it was "in fine print" on the Groupon voucher, but I still feel misled. Usually places include touch ups and had I been told I would have just gone to my regular spot and paid full price because it would even out. I guess it's my fault for not missing it (if it's truly in the voucher in tiny print), but I find it frustrating that they didn't say anything until the day of my "follow up" appointment. I'm giving 2 stars for lack of communication. read more
