Coming from the Bay Area, where there are top spas and facialists, I can only say Maria is the best I have experienced.

I found Maria right away, and now my Bay Area friends come here to experience high quality facials, brow makeovers and so much more!! I highly recommend Maria and Pure Makeup Spa for your beauty needs!!! read more

This salon is literally sent from above. Do yourself a favor and book them for your makeup/event needs now. I had Kandi as my makeup artist for my wedding and I would hire her to do all my makeup forever, she is just amazing. She made me look so beautiful and went above and beyond for me. She listened to exactly what I wanted for my look and my vision for the aesthetic and also threw in her own ideas that were exactly what I wanted and was going for. I am so lucky to have had her for my wedding, she is truly a master artist and perfectionist in her craft. She did my make up and my hair. Also so kind and empathetic and you can tell she just wants to make you look and feel beautiful and that getting to do this for people means a lot to her. The salon also did everything they could to book me in last minute and make sure I had everything I needed. Helen at the front desk is amazing too and will make sure you have everything taken care of. They took the time to take amazing photos too. Love them so much read more

Took my daughter in to see Maria for a Hydrofacial scalp treatment. Before the treatment her head was pretty red and flaky. After the treatment she said that her head felt so much better. Any itching or discomfort has been resolved. Definitely something we'll do for her again. read more

I went here for my first spray tan ever, and it looks sooo amazing and natural, I'm in love. The girl was super friendly and accommodating and put up with me novice newbie butt. First of all they got me in the same day I called, and then I had to go back and have her touch it up because it was patchy, (I believe my fault for wearing pants afterwards.. I didn't know!!) even after I went in and had it touched up I accidentally got finger prints on myself and she had to fix it yet again! She was so nice and polite and helped me however she could. Very patient. She even told me to come back the very next morning if I needed to and didn't charge me for the fix. I'll be going back and this time I'll know better what to do and not do! read more

Maria was a miracle worker!! I can't thank her enough for the expert and extraordinarily professional job she did on my eyebrows. I went in for microblading because I have almost no eyebrow hair. I'd had a previous experience in a salon in the Bay Area that was very bad so I was reluctant to trust another. She reassured me, worked with me, took her time, checked to make sure I was comfortable with the progress, and in the end my eyebrows are flat out AMAZING!!! I couldn't be happier! And they look so natural folks are shocked if I tell them that they are not real!!! Thank you THANK YOU Maria!! Worth every penny!! read more

Maria did a WONDERFUL job on my makeup for my redwoods elopement. Dear lord, I looked hot. I had never had airbrushed makeup before, and I've gotta say, the gal knows what she's doing. I had to schedule from across the country, and Hunter and Maria made sure I was squared away. Did the trial the day before and everything went off without a hitch. Highly recommend! read more

Worst facial ever! I paid a ton for a facial, expecting to get quality but the owner didn't even clean my face properly before or after the facial & she improperly over books appointments leaving no time to provide quality service to her clients. I left feeling unsatisfied, depressed & ripped off. I had to finish cleaning the mascara & gunk she left all over my face when I got in my car. I would expect better from a lady who claims to be so professional & the price I paid. read more

I came in for a first time waxing appointment with Shelley and she did a fabulous job! Really made me feel comfortable but was professional at the same time. Took the time to be thorough and I didn't feel rushed at all. We got to talking about skincare and I booked a facial consultation with her for a later date. This gal knows her stuff. I look forward to building a relationship and becoming a regular client. Highly recommended! read more

This place used to be so great! ...in the beginning. It has gone down hill in customer service and attention, immensely. Not exaggerating, but the last few times I have called or gone in, the only people there to greet me or to not be able to answer my questions, are children. It's really unprofessional. I don't know if it's because the owner is taking too much on or what but when you pay that kind of money, you should expect it to be a great experience. Maria hardly has time to give her paying customer what they are paying for. It's not relaxing, it's chaotic, and rushed... Whether it be a facial, a simple question, a spray tan, or a wax. I've been here several times for several different things. My first facial was wonderful. My first wax, a great experience. The ones that followed were awful, I do admit I went back because I thought it would get better but it didn't. I did end up saying something in hopes my next time would be better or something would come of it but yet I was never apologized to, or accommodated in anyway. I think it could be a great place to go, but just make sure she has the time of day for you, I guess. read more
