Liz is an absolute gem. I originally booked a Hydrafacial, but when the machine was unavailable, she reached out ahead of time to offer a customized treatment instead. That level of communication and care immediately stood out to me. From the moment I arrived, Liz was professional, kind, and very approachable. She took time to understand my skin and made honest recommendations without any pressure, which I really appreciated. The facial itself was high quality. You can tell she knows what she's doing: My skin felt deeply hydrated (not just surface-level glow) No irritation or redness at all--my skin was calm and balanced My texture looked smoother and pores more refined The finish was radiant but not greasy or overdone Everything felt intentional and tailored--not rushed or generic. I left with my skin looking healthy, refreshed, and glowing. Liz truly cares about her clients and her craft. I will absolutely be back and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a skilled, trustworthy esthetician. read more

12 years later, and Liz deserves another review. Liz is an incredibly skilled and thoughtful professional. She is a wonder at waxing, managing to make the most strange things reasonably painless and not at all awkward. She keeps my eyebrows looking fabulous. For skincare, she has continued to invest her time in learning all the best treatments, and skillfully combines them to address just about any skin or aging concern I've ever had. She takes great care of my sensitive skin, and never upsells anything that isn't perfect for me personally. She is also an incredible human. Go to Liz, your skin and life will be better for it. read more

Liz is the best, i've been going to her place for very long time. (Since she had a place on Riverside dr.) She has very bubbly personality, very welcoming, her studio always clean and makes you feel very comfortable during the treatment. I would highly recommend Liz! read more

Liz is the most amazing skin guru ever!!! My skin has never looked better. I'm doing a series of geneo facials and procell microneedling and I'm so so happy with my results. The geneo facial I had last night was the best facial I've ever had in my life and was so relaxing and healing and my skin looks like a baby!!! She knows her craft and can work out a SKIN "game plan" for you that will change your life! read more

Liz is the best in the biz. As a larger person I was nervous about waxing (as we're taught to hate our bodies) but Liz and her beautiful space put me at ease immediately. She might actually be the most amazing person: Animal rescuer, Girl Boss, absolute pro in her field-- what can't she do? Make an appointment with Liz, you won't regret it. read more

Absolutely love Liz! She is an expert and diagnosing and treating all my skin care issues. I'm returning to her after a long hiatus to prep my skin for my upcoming wedding inJanuary! We have worked out a game plan and I'm confident in her skill, knowledge and abilities! Great beautiful super clean space in Magnolia Oark. read more

I can't agree more with all the reviews about Vanity Private Studio. Liz is AMAZING, very down to earth, she makes you feel comfortable and at ease especially since it can be a bit apprehensive having someone manage your goodies down below. Liz did such a great job on my eyebrows too and I'll continue to have her do them from now on. She's very meticulous at what she does and just knows how to make a customer happy. Scheduling an appointment is easy and it's all done online. Plenty of parking at the location in the back. For first timers having a Brazilian wax, you'll love Liz, she is by far the best and I wouldn't try anyone else. read more

Liz is the BEST. Seriously if you're even a little apprehensive about getting waxed, come to Liz and she will take care of you. I went to her after going to European Wax Center once and I have to say it was so much less painful with Liz. She has the method down on lock and is also a great conversationalist so the time flies by. She does an incredible job and very reasonably priced. The shop is her own, and there is tons of parking in the lot behind it. 10/10 recommend! read more

I have been going to see Liz for years for facials, waxing etc. She is excellent at what she does and also is super sweet and fun to chat with while she's working on you. She does several different services and now does lash perms and tinting. I trust her implicitly so I had no fear in getting this done by her, especially since I have never had a lash tint or lash perm. It turned out great, process was easy and now I really don't have to wear mascara for probably at least a month. I highly recommend Liz and her business. You can't go wrong. read more

Vanity Private Studio - Before and After. No need for mascara, Liz does a great job. - Skin Care Near Me - Burbank, California

Liz is amazing! I've been coming to her for over five years and always love my visits. She's so friendly and knows what she's talking about and doing. He recommendations are spot on! Her knowledge and confidence, always makes me feel comfortable. Her facials are amazing! She's the absolute best in the valley! read more

I will not let anyone touch my eyebrows except Liz, EVER. She can NEVER move or retire. NEVER. After a debacle with my daughter accidentally shaving off half of one of her eyebrows in her early teens, I let her know to grow it back and I would take her to get them done professionally. This was more than 10 years ago, we found Liz and she fixed it right up, and I got mine done for the first time, all I could say was WOW! Having extremely light hair my eyebrows were actually there but looked invisible. With the shaping and tinting it totally enhanced my look and still looked natural. Oh did I also say Liz is amazing, and a miracle worker? Did I mention she is fun to talk with? Thanks so much Liz, the only thing that would be better if you were closer! Finally I'm doing this review. Sorry it took so long. See you Saturday! P.S. Liz also has a HUGE heart and runs an animal rescue. You really can't go wrong here. read more

Oh dear.. that's gonna.... HURT. Yes, getting a wax down there isn't the most pleasant experience ever, but Liz made me feel so comfortable getting down to my skivvies and the whole process in general. She did the most difficult part first; ripping it off was an eye clenching, I think I'm gonna die, brief moment experience. But through the good conversation we had (she's like a homegirl.. an athletic one), those 20 -25 minutes flew by. For those stubborn hairs, tweezers were used. Liz also reminded me to relax at times and take deep breaths in and out. Another perk is that Liz provides you with small chocolates prior to your wax, including Ghiradeli chocolates. I like to think these are some prewax relaxer. Although I'm not a chocolate person, I took some to distract myself. Overall, I'm satisfied with my baby smooth skin. Brazilians are $55 ladies (or gents who like to fancy themselves with this). To maintain it, Liz recommends coming after your monthly, mother nature visit and get the Brazilian maintenance for $39. Other tips: -parking is free on the side streets for 2 hours. -this place is across the street from Chase. -this place is across the street from Portos! Go ahead and grab yourself a small treat after that pain! read more

My Brazilian Wax looks so good I want to post pictures, but I'm not ready to be kicked off of Yelp. Food porn is one thing, actual porn another. TMI? Obviously not. We ladies know, when it comes to maintenance, we want to know what it is we are getting ourselves into. With Liz, she owns her own studio, and takes appointments by request (online too!). After seeing the Yelp decoration and hoping it wasn't a sham, I made a 7:30PM appointment last Friday night. Liz herself is a delight - an easy going, funny and warm person who immediately puts you at ease. Her work, the combination of hard wax and traditional wax and skilled application yields results like I've never had. The hard wax minimizes the irritation, and I have to tell you, I used to get waxes regularly in college in Beverly Hills and dreaded every single visit. It caused me to take a three year break. This single experience has brought me back to the regular waxing camp. If you have never had bikini/brazilian before, or are a veteran, I suggest your first (or next) time you make an appointment with Liz, take about 25 minutes out of your day and $45 out of your wallet (before tip) and walk out a new woman. read more

This review is way overdue as I've been going to Liz for a few years now. She ROCKS!!! For the best Brazilian and brows, go to Liz. You won't regret it. Getting a Brazilian can be painful and awkward. But Liz is so professional, easy to talk to, and amazingly skilled at what she does. I have never had ingrown hairs thanks to Liz. Love her!!! P.S. She gives awesome facials too! read more

I waited until the last minute to, um, "prepare" for my trip to Maui, and Liz was able to fit me into a very tight schedule. I was in a rush to leave the house and unfortunately hit traffic on the way over there. To add to my misery, when I finally got there and went to pull out change for the parking meter (there is a parking lot, but I just thought it was easier to pull in front), I realized I HAD LEFT MY WALLET ON THE KITCHEN COUNTER! No ID, no credit cards, no cash, no nothing. I wanted to just leave in tears, but I couldn't leave her hanging so I went up to tell her what had happened. Miraculously, she took me anyway and performed BOTH services on trust alone. Her next client was thankfully running late! I would never dream of stiffing anyone, but she didn't know me from a hole in the wall and I was really touched by the fact that she helped me out in a jam! I went straight back home and came all the way back to give her cash and a tip...I was so grateful! Thanks again Liz, you are the best! read more

This would be my regular place if I lived in SoCal. We were in the area for a weekend cruise and I was due for a Brazilian and didn't have time back home, yelped this place and it was the first 5 star that popped up. I must say; I was able to book an appointment the night before-around 11:30p- online. Her prices are super cheap for her service! I can appreciate that. Her style of hair removal is equivalent to someone working at a day spa for $85-90 a pop. Overall: she did a great job and makes you feel super comfortable. I wanted to stay after and play with her two pitbulls, but had to be on my merry way. Anyhow, if I'm ever in SoCal and in need of a wax, I'm glad I know where to go. ;) read more

V-Day takes on a whole 'nother meaning when you're at Vanity Private Studio. Primping is not just for special occasions but a regular necessity. Whether it's for brows or for more private areas, take care of your hairy biz here, leave satisfied and completely hair-free if you want. My experience here was excellent because Liz is a pro and she assesses the delicate situation at hand and applies the appropriate wax for the job. A clean work area and zero-fuss, online appointment system pushes this review to 5 stars. It's nice to receive great service at a place even when using a voucher like I did. Some businesses really hold it against you for taking advantage of such an offer. Continue maintaining the clean landscape by booking a fairly priced upkeep wax session following your first visit. Come clean and also ready to chat because Liz is a conversationalist. Free parking is located on the lot on Cordova. You might get a little confused if you're depending on the Yelp mobile app to get you to your appointment. The address is correct but the map points you to the old location. read more

This review is long, long overdue. I've been going to Liz for years now, and I will never go anywhere else. I've been to waxers from Santa Monica to Pasadena and all over the Valley, and she is the BEST. My eyebrows are always flawless. I get tons of compliments, and I wouldn't trust anyone else with them. My Brazilians are THOROUGH (I get tons of compliments!). I can't tell you how many times I've come home to find a little Hitler stache or secret kelp forest left down there with other waxers. Not with Liz. No hair is left behind. Easy online scheduling. Free parking. Super close to Porto's, for all your potato ball needs pre or post wax. Plus, Liz is fun to talk to. I highly recommend. read more

I have to say I only joined Yelp to write this review for this place... BEST. PLACE. EVER. Liz makes you feel so comfortable being naked. haha. She is just a friendly person who I felt really comfortable with. I freak out a lot especially when you are having hair ripped from your body, but she made it quick and painless. I feel more comfortable around her than an OB/GYN. So you know it's nothing weird. I love this place and for everyone, you need to do this. She's pro and it's a BEAUTIFUL place. It's clean, cute and just awesome. I drive all the way from Diamond Bar to see her. That's how awesome she is. Go. You will not regret it. read more

LIZ = COOL I will absolutely recommend her for leg waxing... - She is funny, talkative, and laid back and even accommodated me when I had a waxing emergency very last minute! - She definitely knows what she is doing. I felt very comfortable, and there were no touchups needed. She's got techniques =) - Prices are very reasonable. Make sure you tip! - Book your appointments online! Or text her her for day-of requests! KEEP IN MIND: - There is a clean bathroom next door to her studio. - It's a little suite in a courtyard in a building on the corner of Cordova and Magnolia. You will not be able to see it from the street. - There's a free parking lot. read more

I've been coming to Liz for awhile now and let me tell you....she is the WAX WIZARD....I came to her after I decided to stop shaving my eyebrows off....YES SHAVING MY EYEBROWS OFF......I thought it looked hot drawing them on....looking back it may have been a little tranny looking now, hahaha, but I originally started doing that because I thought my eyebrow shape was not sufficient to get a beautiful arch. Boy was I wrong... She has made my eyebrows into little trinkets of perfection...I am psychotic about them and she has never done me wrong.... speaking of doing it right BRAZILIAN PERFECTION...quick, minimal pain, and affordable for upkeep. Facials to die for. Liz is one of the greatest women I have met here in LA. She is such a unique individual and is so talented at what she does. You will not regret booking with Liz...DO IT!!! read more

I was on the look out for a place to get my bikini wax for over two years. And girls you know what I mean when I say, "i'm not going to trust it to just anyone" because when you get a bad one its bad and when you get a good one, well you just wanna show it to................You get my point. Liz rocks and she makes me look fabulous. Best darn bikini wax in town!!! She also gave me an amazing series of pumpkin facials which made my face look flawless. She's the best. thanks Liz read more

I have nothing but incredible things to say about vanity private studio and Liz. Not only is she extremely comforting, super easy to talk to and genuinely cares about helping you find a skin regimen that works for you, but the atmosphere and technology available are unparalleled. I've been struggling with my skin for the last couple of months, and with Liz's paramedical background and knowledge, we have come up with a solution that I foresee continuously improving. My skin has literally never felt so soft after the enzyme facial and I can't say enough that if you live in LA you MUST come here. She makes you feel at home in her studio and truly cares about your skin goals and what steps need to be taken to get you there. Thank you Liz for the best facial. I finally feel hopeful about fixing my skin! read more

Liz is awesome! It's a nice, quiet, and beautiful cozy studio and it's so easy to pop in, get my brows waxed, and go on my merry way. I butchered my brows in college, and she's been helping me nurse them into crisp, full, healthy brows and her shaping is superb! The friendly banter aint' bad either! ;) I have yet to have a facial but will be coming in soon for one. Also I was on a run with my friend and we realized we BOTH go to Liz! She had nothing but great things to say as well. Go here already!! :D read more

Liz rocks! Over the past few years, I had carted my goodies all over WeHo and the Valley to find Brazilian bliss...and I finally found it here! Liz's technique is as painless as possible. Her studio is super clean and she is a wealth of information about homeopathic cures. My skin is 100% better since she told me about manuka honey! Groupon, LivingSocial, and yes, even other Yelp specials be damned! I have found the last lady who will ever be waxing my hoohah! read more

Liz is the best. She was the first to touch my brows and I wouldn't think of going to anyone else. I've been going to her for over 4 years. I have recommended her to a number of friends and they all love her as well. She is by appointment, but she will always find a way to fit you into her schedule. she's great. read more

Liz is an angel sent from the heavens above. Ingrown hairs are now a thing of my past. Until I met Liz, I thought I was going to be stuck in this extremely painful and volatile relationship. I am proud to say I got out - for good. I can actually say I look forward to getting a Brazilian...crazy, right?! The studio is super clean, with lots of free parking. Liz uses the perfect mix of waxes to get you hair free and smooth in no time. On top of being amazing at what she does, she is super fun and easy to talk to. She is the best there is. I'll never go anywhere else. Thanks Liz! read more

Wow. I was SO nervous. I'd never had a waxing experience ever. This yelp deal came up at the perfect time. It was less than a week to my wedding and Liz fit me in for a full leg, Brazilian and under arm. I never thought I could sit there and let someone else get in my business, but Liz made me SO comfortable. My hair wasn't quite as long as it should have been, but it turned out AMAZING! I thought I'd be sore, but I wasn't at all! Instant pain then it's over. The gel she recommended I get was a huge help, and now I look amazing for my wedding day! Thank you, Liz! read more

I had made an appt. to try the NEW hydra facial Liz is offering. I was welcomed with a test run in her new Infared Sauna with a Jade bed built into (felt AMAZING) Then Liz showed me all her new equipment, I felt safe and relaxed in her knowledge and skill and I thoroughly enjoyed my facial. My skin looks amazing!!! I couldn't help but buy more visits to have more hydra facials. Thanks Liz!!! read more

I LOVE MY EYEBROWS! Just ask my boyfriend....I wouldn't stop talking about them for 3 days! Liz was great! She went out of her way to see me late one day after work so I wouldn't have to go to Vegas looking like caterpillar was crawler on my face. She took the time to talk to me about what I wanted and I got it! This was only my second time getting my brows professionally done but I liked Liz much better then Mathis Murphy. They didn't ask me what I wanted and it was much more expensive. I left there feeling a little robbed and a little naked, they tore off more hair then I wanted! I am definitely going back to Liz and would recommend her to anyone interested in a caring, professional and reasonable priced brow experience! read more

I've had a few Brazilian experiences in the past that left me psychologically -- and physically-- scarred (in the past I had signs of lifted skin and near instant infection). A friend of mine convinced me to give it another shot, so I found Vanity Private Studio on Yelp and booked after reading the great reviews about Liz. Her bedside manner is super easy-going and she's definitely not at all like the pretentious, snooty estheticians I've experienced that made me feel like I didn't belong there. Her technique was the first I've seen first-hand with mixed uses of soft and hard wax, and while there's still pain, it's less than what I've gone through in the past. She did a thorough job at tweezing stragglers, too. Afterward, I grabbed a lollipop and took her advice and applied arnica gel (arnicare bought at Sprouts) to help ease the residual pain/swelling. I used this for two days, and it helped a lot. I also Made DIY Tend Skin (mix 70% alcohol, witch hazel and crushed, uncoated aspirin) daily and I had virtually no post-wax bumps/irritation. All said and done, I plan on booking an appointment again next month, and am 100% confident about referring my friend. read more

I got my first ever Brazilian wax last week at the age of 34. I was scared to death - the pain! Showing my naughty bits to the world! However, imagine my surprise when I discovered Vanity Private Studio (thanks, Yelp). Liz, the owner, did the most amazing job - no bumps, burns, waxy bits left over - just smooth like the day I was born. I decided to go back for a facial and was not disappointed. My skin looks amazing. Very reasonable prices, great service, very lovely studio. Thanks, Liz! I have already booked another wax and facial. Can't wait to go back. How many people do you know can say that about a vagina wax?? read more

Liz is a doll. Not only does she make you feel comfortable in a very vulnerable situation, she gives great skin/hair care recommendations and has been my consultant on many a break-out occasion. She's so fun and easy to get along with, I feel like we should be having marg's on the porch after each session (but I realize I'm a client and that could be construed as creepy?) :) My friend came for the Botox Party and I will quote her here: "Best and least expensive Botox I've ever had, wish I didn't have to move to NY just because of Liz." She's a very busy lady, so book early. Great prices, great location, great gal. Totally worth it. read more

Liz is awesome! Super easy online appointment scheduling (love that i can schedule it from my work computer) Great schedule with later hours to help those of that work during the day Free parking Awesome prices Super fast and easy read more

A good wax is hard to find and many only do so through trial and PAINFUL error, myself included. I was going somewhere else when I was referred by a dear friend, and have since referred three more people. And we all LOVE LOVE LOVE her! Liz is über professional, and makes you feel completely at ease and the room temp is always just right, making for a blissful experience every time. Plus her "appointment only" policy assures you always receive the attentive service you deserve. Do not be skeptical of all of these 5 star reviews, she really is THAT great! : ) read more

Update! Liz is back and she's mah-ve-lous... still up to the grand ol' tricks of using the different waxes to become hairless... I highly recommend! read more

I have gotten a facial and I have bought several products from Lisa. She is a pro, she is easy-going, and very cool. I'm so loyal to her! I've been to several places around LA, but this is the only place where my face has improved. I've tried so many products from Proactiv to Neutorgena to expensive french brands (Sothys) to Raya to Dr. Mary Lee Amerian to stuff I dont even remember cuz my mom or my friends just told me to use it. When I heard of Liz's organic products on yelp, I was like...well, that's something I definitely have not tried cuz it sounds so weak sauce...Nooo way! I can feel softer smoother skin,and my pimples wanting to get out (instead of staying hard and stuck underneath the skin). The products seem strong enough to clear my skin but sensitive enough to hurt my skin texture (other products are so harsh I get super dry and bumpy like an allergic reaction). I heard of those facials where your face actually glows like days later. And that's seriously what's happening to me now!! And Liz sees every detail. She will get all those pimples. I actually fell asleep and when I woke up I was so embarrassed. Liz had let me sleep for awhile on purpose! And she had applied organic sunscreen and mineral powder to my pleasant surprise ... so thoughtful! I trusted all the 5 star reviews on yelp. Go meet Liz now! I met her for like 10 minutes before buying anything (because I have trust issues with anyone in the beauty business) and she gave me samples and took time to talk to me. But I quickly called her to buy more stuff and set up a facial! Love her! read more

I AM SOOO PISSED...that I didn't read MORE awesome reviews about Liz. It's not usually the case that you read a review and people are not only right but it almost does the person no justice. Let me just start by saying that Liz is A-MAY-ZING!!! I don't think anyone ever cared about the "details" of a B.W. I mean seriously!! Usually you lay there, waiting for it to end, but time just flew and before I knew it, it was time to go home, I was almost sad. Usually "it" is sensitive until the next day, but Liz made it so much less painful than any other and I had almost no sensitivity. That just tells me she knows exactly what she's doing. If any of you found Liz before ever going to anyone else, consider yourself LUCKY! I have to see her again for something else and I am sure I will not be dissapointed. And after looking at the services she offers I am eager to try something else on her menu. You know how people describe someone as being "real" or "not fake" well that's Liz, completely down to earth & hilarious! It's not everyday you feel like your bff is waxing you. So I have found my new waxist (is that a word?) and an even greater thing, she is two blocks from me and the prices DO NOT get any better than this! Trust me, I've looked! read more

Wow! Miss Miyagi, u rock! You made my waxing experience THE BEST I've EVER had. Liz is extremely professional and soothing! I didn't think I would enjoy my experience with her as much as I did. Her prices are very reasonable and she keeps it real. She has techniques that not only lessen the awkwardness but also relieve your pain with homeopathic remedies. She is a sweetheart that puts you at ease from the moment you walk in to the moment you walk out. She is worth every cent, and now that I've tried her I am hooked! Smooth and silky all the way. Thank you for sharing your expertise with me. I will never try another place for this service! Keep up the great personality and superb b-wax skills. I can't wait for my facial! read more

Like Arlene said, I also agree with alll the reviews about Vanity Private studio. Liz, is such a spectacular person, humnle and she right away makes you feel comfortable. (not like some girls!) I'd say that she has magical hands when it comes to doing eyebrows. I assure you that she's make you happy with her work. Its easy to contact her so go online and make an appointment! read more
