Came in here for a wax and manicure. Such great prices. Ms. Kim has magic in her hands. Very highly recommended for a painless quick and clean wax! read more

Kim is so great!!! She makes me feel so relaxed and comfortable when getting waxed. She is so thorough with her job, recommend her for sure!

My mom has been a customer here for a REALLY long time, and thus, I have also been a customer here. Clean, reputable, and nice employees. Just talking about it is making me desperately crave a pedicure for my mangled, disgusting feet. read more

The salon is super cute! Decorated with a shabby chic look and feel. The service was good. The staff are friendly.

I chose this salon because of their work with healthy and ethical nail salon organizations (clean conditions, fare wages, etc), and have been coming here regularly for pedicures ever since. It's very pleasant, everyone is really nice, and it feels clean. The prices are reasonable, and they do a really good job. Thanks to the Spa Elysee team! read more

My go to place for eye brow wax. I usually call ahead and they get me in right away =)) very convinient

Unlike most nail salons they only tell you to come in if they know they have time to fit you in. I've come here once to get waxed and let me say Kim is the best waxer I've ever had. She was fast, friendly and efficient. I recently came here for my pink and white acrylics fill. Helen did a great job at fixing my terrible nails and making them look pretty. My only complaint was how ridiculously expensive they were compared to other shops. $45 for a fill!! I got them put on in LA for less than that and they honestly looked flawless so I was a little disappointed by that. I'm definitely going to go back and hopefully a normal fill won't be so expensive. read more

I can't say enough about this place! It is very clean, professional staff, large array of services, and a great location. I'm a regular and refuse to go anywhere else. I highly recommend Kim's! read more

Went with a friend for a brazilian wax - first timer here! I had been dreading this appointment as I have been reading horror stories online of everything that could go wrong during the wax, and how much it would hurt. Appointment was at 6pm, my friend called Kim around 4pm to see if she had availability, she said come in right away! Got to the salon, very friendly staff, greeted as soon as we walked through the door. I went upstairs first for my wax. Kim asked me to undress and to lay on the table. She did a very good job about making me feel extremely comfortable. I told her it was my first time and she told me not to worry. She talked to me the entire time, which helped take my mind off of everything. She would check with me to see if it hurt, to which I would respond, oh my god, and kind of giggle. She was very straight forward and everything was done in about 15 minutes. I felt around - hairless! She put a cream on me and recommended I purchase it for my ingrown prone skin. I went down stairs to wait for my friend to get hers done as well. Overall a great experience, Kim really made me feel okay about everything. When needing a touch up, I'll be back to see Kim! read more

I have been her twice. Good service and fast! I've had 2 Shellac manicures, brazillian and leg wax, Waxing was fast and pretty painless! Highly recommended! Great Prices! read more

Thank you Yelp friends for making me meet Kim! She is such a sweetheart, I am so happy I found her. I will be a devoted client for sure... Kim did a perfect job for my brazilian and upper leg wax, not to mention in a record time. I was in and out in under 30 minutes. Fyi... As a brazilian, my standards for a brazilian wax is pretty high, she is the best I had in my life! I can't wait to try her facials. As soon as I do I will update you with a review. read more

Just visited Kim's Perfect Skin & Nails for the first time and was not disappointed. I made an appointment with less than 24 hours notice and was able to pick my time no problem. Upon arriving at the salon I was greeted immediately and sat down right away. I was doing Shallac, so Kimberly (the owner's daughter) gave me the samples to choose from. She also wrapped my nails in the foil to begin the removal process. Jessica did my nails, did a nice job and was very friendly! PROS: price! $25 for shellac (including removing the shellac I had on already) friendly, attentive staff!! gave me water and a magazine to read while I waited for my nails to soak hand massage- quick, but great touch! clean! CONS: nothing really. The one comment I would say is that my nails are longer on my left than my right-- they didn't get evened out to match completely. Although, Jessica made sure each hand was even. The other comment would be the clear coat got on my finger tips so when I put my hands in the UV light, my fingers felt a little toasty. All in all- great place--I will be back. I'd also like to try their other services! read more

My first time here and I can say I will never go back. So I went in to get a shellac manicure and pedicure . Not too many shellac colors to pick from. So I wanted a white color then the owner tells me she didn't have it ... Ok then why are you displaying it (she was kinda rude about it ) I didn't feel very welcome to begin with. Wasn't offered anything to drink or a magazine . But then one of her usual clients walks in and she offers tea /water I thought this was just rude! So I get my nails done by Karen and 5 minutes I leave the salon I'm driving and notice that my nails are chipping And the shellac is lifting!!!! And my toes looked like a disaster! This has never happened to me! So I call and Kim the owner tells to come in and they will fix it ...I come the next day And they redo everything and the owner had gone to get the polish I wanted ...well now my nails have Bubbles!!!! Nope never again.... there goes $50 dollars down the drain! I have gotten shellac many times and never have gone through this ..very disappointed expected way more read more

I have been coming here for mani/pedi for over two years now and all of the nail techs are amazing. They always remember my name, take their time to get to know you and most importantly provide an excellent nail service. I would recommend them to anyone! read more

I was in town last weekend and I couldn't go back home without getting a facial from Kim. I got a few new Biologique Recherché products...but best of all was Biologique's new Microlab puncture facial! It's sooo incredible! I am amazed that Kim has the new machine, but no one in LA near me has it yet. My face was red for the first day but after that, it's wonderful. Can't wait until our next San Jose trip so I can get another facial. Thanks Kim! read more

Highly recommended Kim for for a facial. She did a amazing job on my face since my skin near my chin was irritated and not smooth. She really smoothed my skin out which felt great. read more

I went for the first time today for a wax (Kim) and manicure (Jessica). I am very pleased with the results! Kim was quick, professional, and flawless. She did an incredible job on my brows and the lip was painless. My manicure also turned out really nicely, I was impressed they only charge $10! All instruments were sterile and the place was spotless. I will absolutely go back. read more

Somehow my simple mani pedi eyebrow threading turned into the extra 10 minute leg/foot/hand/arm/shoulder massage with an eyebrow dye. Not complaing though because it felt wonderful and it's been a long time since I treated myself. Besides Jessica's job on my eyebrows was fab! I'll be coming into see her regularly from now on. read more

Kim is the best waxer by far. Prices are great, she's super quick, her technique is amazing and she always distracts us with chatter and conversation. Never had a reaction to her wax (& oh goodness have I had reactions to wax) and I travel to see her...she's that good. read more

I tried many places before finding Kim and I have been her customer now for 15 years. I went back to her because she was the first to treat my breakouts and actually extract blackheads. I had my adult onset acne under control with her facials and products.. Every facial is customized to your skin and it's needs .She does teen facials at a reduced price. Now that I am getting older her microdermabrasion is great for collagen stimulation and wrinkle prevention. She also does permanent eyeliner, lash and brow tints and waxing. Her products are plant based and she has the latest equipment /technology and she regularly attends esthetician conferences in Paris and around the USA. Healthy skin is her passion. I won't go anywhere else for facials. Pedicures are excellent too with electric massage chairs. read more

HIghly recommend Kim for bikini/brazilian waxing. She knows hers ways! Doesn't hurt AT ALL and makes you feel comfortable.

I hadn't been to kim's for a few years until yesterday. I decided to get a brazilian wax and it was very quick and painless. The best part about this shop is that Kim is very knowledgable about skin care products, she really knows her stuff, I mean look at her, her skin is beautiful. I think i got my nails done by a lady name jessica. She was very nice and did a great job on my shelac and pedicure. I went on a Monday and I would normally get my pedicure from Karen but she had the day off. Karen and Jessica are both very great. I will be back in a month thanks Kim and Jessica! read more

Oh my god to be honest I have gone to many places over the years and Kim's perfect skin is by far the most upscale and yet so down to earth place I have ever been everytime I go she makes me feel like I am getting the special treatment and for somebody who works as a house cleaner keeping up to make myself feel pampered every now and then is the ultimate treat she definitely makes it all worth going...... 5 stars for you Kim thank you so much for making me feel beautiful and revived my eyebrows look so great.....thanks again read more

I always call ahead when I want an eyebrow wax and so far they have had openings to do so. Great price. I have had different women do my eyebrows and each time the results have been a perfect fit for me. I am definitely a repeat customer. read more

Amazing!!!!! Friends and I got our nails done at Spa Elysee for my wedding. They were so accommodating, and my nails looked fantastic! Could not have been happier. And, my shellacs lasted for like 3 weeks and still looked beautiful. Thank you Spa Elysee! read more

I have been a customer here for over a year now, starting out getting basic manicures/pedicures (super awesome chairs and massage too!), then advancing to having some waxing done. I went here for my second ever eyebrow wax and was very very happy with the end result. My eyebrows looked damn good after. I also just recently went back for a brazilian bikini wax. Kim herself preformed the waxing and was really awesome. I had not had a waxing done in a very long time and she was great. I felt very comfortable with her and she knew how to make the process as painless as a bikini waxing could be, lol. She even uses two different types of wax in different areas to help aid the process. Love this place! will never go anywhere else! read more

I recently moved to Burlingame and saw all the great reviews on here for Kim's. I can't say that I believed all the comments about the brazilian wax being painless, but I expect a certain amount of pain, so who cares? Um, apparently I care now. It seriously didn't hurt AT ALL! And it was super quick. I am definitely going back! read more

This Place is fantastic!!! My sister has been going here for 22 years and my wife turned me on to Kim's facials and Yonka products when we got married in 2012. Kim, the owner, her son Anthony and Kim's mother Rosie are the best! They really know their stuff. I have suffered from adult acne and rosacea for most of my life. After using Kim's products for 3 months, it was as if I had new skin (for the better). Me and my wife have been very consistent since October of 2012 with getting facials, using the Yonka products and getting great skin-care advice from Kim and Anthony. My wife, Paula also gets eyebrow threading, manicure and pedicure. She say the staff is awesome and won't go anyplace else. This place is very hygienic and you are surrounded by and a serene atmosphere. Me and my wife highly recommend this fine skincare establishment. We are hooked for life as long as we live in Burlingame!!!!!!!!! read more

This place did a really good job on my French pedi, I was very satisfied with the job the nail tech did. My friend even got a massage which she said was pretty good. We went back again, but this time they weren't so welcoming. They just said "come back tomorrow!!" Great pedi, but they need more staff. There were only 2 people getting work done, not sure why they just didn't ask us to wait. read more

Thanks to Kim's monthly facials, deep knowledge about skin, great products and her advice on how to maintain my skin after a facial, i have beautiful skin. I had problems with my skin for so long and then i met Kim and my life changed! I started eating healthier and using the products i purchased from Kim. I am so grateful to have her as my skin care lady she is truly amazing and passionate about what she does. I highly recommend her! read more

STAY AWAY FROM THIS SPA. i normally don't go to nails salon because i work in a podiatrist office and i have a lot of patients got infections, fungus nails and ingrown nails due to the improperly nail care from nails salon. i came here because i am on vacation with my sister, after i saw the pic on yelp showing that they sterilized all the tools before use on the customer and of cause with all the good reviews, i decided to give it a try. WRONG DECISION!!!!! first of all, i didnt see any sterilized implements or did they really sterilized?? usually nail tech opens the package in front of the customer but maybe she did, maybe i missed it,but i wouldn't know, at least she didnt do it in front of me. Then, she asked me soap my hand in COLD WATER!!! seriously? it was hella cold today, whats the point to soap in cold water? ok fine, but why my nails turn brown after i soap in the water? i asked her, she goes, "because you put polish too much." This is so funny because i dont do polish on my hand!!!!! ok, skip the story, here is the whole point that i gave 0 star, she file my nails with an USED nail file!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! how the hell you guys protect your customer if you use a clean tools but a used file???? excuse my words. OMG, i cant believe it. luckily, she didnt cut me which is good. Finally, paint job. she didnt disappointed me of cause. yes!! my polish came out so UNEVEN. my dog can do better then her, and since she didnt buff off the brown which i mention before, so i can still see the brown color under the polish. very good! i end up ask her to remove it all and i would rather have nothing on my nail. she really pissed me off, i will not never ever come back!! my tech is called HELEN. THANKS FOR RUINING MY DAY, I APPRECIATE IT! read more

Came here for the first time today. Kim was working on my nails, we were getting to know one another ect. Told her I lived in South San Francisco (south city) and currently attend university in San Francisco. She was rushing my nails, doing them pretty badly because she had a facial to do right after me. I pointed out one nail she had messed up very nicely and she started redoing about 4 more because they had the same problem. I was frustrated and politely asked for her to just take them all off at that point so I could go somewhere else. She proceeded to say "none of my burlingame clients complain, this is so typical of south city scum like you". I told her how horrible that was and explained how much it hurt me and she started to apologize. She caused me to cry and I left upset and very humiliated. Kim may seem sweet, but be aware of her horrible work ethic and customer service. She obviously thinks less of certain customers just because of where they live. The other nail ladies apologized for her behavior. When she's the OWNER. Despicable. read more

Today was my first time and I got my eyebrows waxed and lip waxed because Kim recommended it. Kim is so sweet and very nice! she was right of recommended me getting my lips waxed because I was happy with the result my brows turned out really good too. I will definitely come back again for waxing! :) read more

I don't go to a salon for regular mani/pedis because I do them myself. I am pretty picky about who does my nails when I do get them done and am more likely to get pedicures if anything. I have been going to this salon for at least 10 years and they are great. Always professional, clean and they remember your name when you come in, even if it's been more than a few months. They do book up quickly so it's best to call first. Although I have walked in on the occasional Sunday and they have been able to take me. Kim the owner is always so put together and really knows her stuff. She really takes pride in her business and she strives to offer the best customer service. read more

Kim's Perfect Skin is an amazing salon. Kim is very passionate about skin care and the care of the whole body. The services provided at Kim's Perfect Skin range from manicures and pedicures up thorough the latest in skin care and body care services. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. I have been going to Kim for greater that 12 years. She has years of experience in skin care and carries a line of exceptionally effective products that deliver great results quickly. Her facials are fabulous. She examines your skin and determines the right treatment. Kim's salon is my close kept secret. OK....so now everyone knows. Get a facial and a mani/pedi and don't forget products for home care. You'll be oh so glad you stopped in for a visit and service! Can't say enough about Kim's Perfect Skin, Kim and her team Tootle Loo! read more

Mani-pedi service was excellent. It was very clean and in a nail salon, that is unusual! Convenient location.

I would like to express my sincere thanks and gratitude to Kim for her extraordinary expertise in skin care. I have noticed a huge difference and improvement in my skin after just one facial. Since using the products she recommended for my skin type and expert techniques I have seen a dramatic difference in the look and feel of my skin. I look forward to working with Kim and will do whatever it takes to achieve optimal results. For those of you out there who may be skeptical regarding where do get your facials done, I would highly recommend getting your services from Kim Pham. She has over 30 years of experience. You will not regret it! Her salon also operates as a full service salon that includes facials, waxing, nail care, make up, etc.. the atmosphere of her salon is very relaxing and comforting including the decor of the salon which was designed by her husband. Love the European features....Thank you yelpers for your great reviews, I would not have found this place without your help. I am proud to say I have FINALLY found my new Esthetician for all my skin care needs. Can't wait for my next appointment. read more

I chose to give Kim's a second chance and was extremely pleased this time around. Kim's followed through with their offer for a new mani, and it looks wonderful. Helen is a great tech! I will definitely want to return again after my fresh start. read more

I recently came here for an acrylic fill and eyebrow wax and tint. I called ahead to make an appointment so that my services could be scheduled back to back and they graciously accommodated me within 2 hours. The atmosphere is lovely with an "quaint french feel" I was very pleased with my brows. I originally asked for threading, and explained that I preferred that to wax as I have sensitive skin and was afraid to try waxing. Well, to my surprise I found the wax less painful! My nails turned out perfect and after 2 weeks they are still strong and shiny! I highly recommend giving them a try! read more

I was given an appointment to come in at 6 PM for a review for a previously bad experience. When I arrived for my appointment and told them I have an appointment at 6pm, they asked me if I could come back later as they are busy at the moment. They forgot about my appointment helped two people before me. Then finally i was helped at 6:30pm. 30 minutes after my scheduled appointment. Helen did my nails and she did a good job but she was the person who made me wait even though I had an appointment and helped two people before me. Still not one good experience at Kim's. read more
