About Face Love

  • I can’t say enough good things about this place. Geen did my makeup for Auto Prom and she is amazing! She finished around 1pm and it lasted until I took it off at 3am! Everyone there was so nice and just easy and relaxing. They made me feel like they knew me. It was such a great experience. I can’t wait to return! Thanks again Geen xo

  • Just had my second facial yesterday- my skin looks amazing! My sister had told me I needed to start going before my June wedding now to get my skin in perfect condition. She was right. She recommended About Face to me and I am so happy she did! I look forward to my monthly facials!

  • It's been years but my makeup session with Robin was an incredible experience for me! She taught me so many great tips that I still follow to this day, especially because I have hooded eyelids. The products I purchased were fantastic too. I would highly recommend this service.

  • A most enjoyable, relaxing experience. I had my make-up lesson done last week. Robin taught me how to apply the new colors I am now using. When I left the salon, I felt beautiful. The face products I bought make my skin glow. My make-up stays on the complete day. I recommend going to About Face Beauty Spa.
