Barbara saved me! I've been following her advice and using her products for more than 2 years. She is just one of my friends. We talked about everything during the treatment. The first picture was taken after the first appointment, I have a lotttt of acne and redness. I started to slowly cut off all dairy and used her products. It turned out that my skin was much clearer than before, with barely acne. This spring I started LED light treatment, which gradually reduced my acne scars.

7 months since starting with Barbara

Barbara completely transformed my skin! At 25 I started struggling with acne for the first time in my life. I thought I could manage it myself and probably used 10 different skincare brands before I finally went to my dermatologist for accutane. I really didn't want to use such a strongmedication so as a last ditch effort I went to Barbara. Within 2 months my skin was starting to heal and now 7 months later my skin is the best it has ever been. If you are struggling with acne get Barbara to help you. She is a professional and knows how to manage acne and different skin types. I wish I went to her earlier! I recommend her to anyone I know struggling with acne.

Still improving. Still impressed!

Barbara is great. I would recommend her for facial services. She's very professional and does not pressure you to purchase products.

Barbara is great. Her products for acne really work. The Cranberry Moisturizer is my favorite.

I have been searching half a year for a medspa and decided to give Essential Bella a try. It was…read morehonestly the best decision I've made to end the year! For the past year, I have struggled with trying to get rid of my acne scaring and improve the texture on my face. When going into Essential Bella, Evelyn greeted me with a warm smile and brought me to a private room. The room was clean, sterile, and well organized. She went over the procedure and made sure I was well informed before starting. First step was to numb my face, so she cleaned my face and then applied a numbing cream. I sat in that room comfortably for about 30 mins just scrolling on my phone while waiting for it to kick in. After that, Evelyn brought me to another room where she was going to start my procedure. She ended up doing extractions and then a chemical peel treatment. After that, she wipes it off and starts to microneedle. It was a smooth process and didn't really feel much. However, once the numbing cream wore off, I was really starting to feel it on one side of my face. It was only for the last two minutes. Afterwards, Evelyn put something cooling to help with the stinging sensation and handed me a small electric fan. The small fan felt so good, because my face felt like it was on fire! Once I was done, she told me some basic aftercare and shared the importance of using sunscreen 24hrs after the procedure. My face felt raw, tight, and on fire so had to use very gentle products after. 8hrs after my procedure, my face was pretty red, and I started to tolerate the pain. Later that evening I used a gentle face wash and cerave moisturizer. For the next few days, my skin started to peel and a lot of my texture had disappeared. Once it completely healed, my skin was glowy and my acne scars have lighted up. Just in time for Christmas eve festivities!! I look forward to my next micro-needle appointment with Evelyn! She's professional, informative, really kind, and has an amazing sense of humor. 10/10 recommend!!

Stumbled upon a total gem yesterday! My sister Reisa…read moreSalonga and I were wandering through downtown Pleasanton and couldn't resist popping into Good Common Sense. The outside was covered in the most beautiful spring flower decorations....it perfectly matched the gorgeous weather! We were so inspired to learn that everything in the shop is handmade and completely free of harsh chemicals. We even got to meet the owner, who is incredibly knowledgeable and down to earth. It honestly brought so much light to our lives just discovering such a thoughtful, local spot. If you're looking for high-quality natural skincare or just a "feel-good" local shop, you have to check this place out. Such a perfect day to be free and discover something new! They had dinosaur egg bath bombs with a hidden toy inside and a bunny bath bomb that you can paint and add to an Easter basket..you know I got a couple for King! For myself, I indulged on their handmade soap bar with this cloth material that acts as a scrubber and holder for your soap and sugar body scrub that I can't wait to try.

Just a quick update…read more I like a darker lip color. Last year I found Witch, Please! at good common sense. It is a seasonal color so I was unable to replace the tube I lost until September when they made a new batch. I went in and bought 2 tubes. I wasn't happy with the depth of color on the new batch. When I said something, the owner agreed the color wasn't the same and apologized. She said would get additional mica and replace it for me. After I bought the new tubes, I found my missing tube so now I have 3! Thanks for making a customer happy!

I started seeing her for eyelash extensions, and as someone with extremely short, straight, and brittle lashes, I'm always amazed at how beautiful and natural they look. Danielle always puts the integrity of my natural lashes first, taking the time to explain what's realistic for my lash type and why some inspiration photos might not be achievable without causing damage -- which I completely appreciate. She also did nano brows on me to correct the shape of my eyebrows, and I couldn't be happier with the results. On top of that, I go to her regularly for brow lamination, tint, and wax, and my brows have never looked better. The owner, Ella, is the sweetest and most accommodating person I've ever met. She makes every visit such a warm and welcoming experience. You can really feel the care and positive energy the entire team puts into their clients. If you're looking for a spa that combines luxury, expertise, and genuine kindness -- Industry on Main is it!

There's lots of brow places out there but she has great technique so I'd say it's special. I know this place has other services but I am only familiar with getting my brows done. Danielle has also done my lashes for a trip and I would say I'm lucky and like a natural look and she was able to take my direction and run with it! Highly recommend!
