Aesthetix By Vera

Aesthetix By Vera is run by its founder, Vera, a California-licensed esthetician. The studio works by appointment only, and walk-ins are not accepted. Clients reach out through an Instagram direct message with a preferred date and time. The business is open Monday to Friday from 11am to 5pm and Saturday from 10am to 4pm, and it is closed on Sundays.

A visit typically begins with a skin analysis on the day of the appointment, so each customized facial can be shaped around what the skin needs at that time. Treatments draw on targeted cleansers, exfoliation, extractions when they are appropriate, masks, massage and corrective serums. The facials address concerns such as acne, congestion, dryness, sensitivity, aging and dullness. Facials are done by hand and do not use machinery, and the business uses professional-grade products in both facials and brow waxing.

Brow services are a central part of the menu. Brow waxing follows the client's natural growth pattern, and brow lamination with tinting sets the hairs into an even, lifted shape and adds color. The studio also offers a Korean lash lift, which lifts lashes from the root using Korean-formulated solutions. The business says the brow lamination and tinting results last up to six to eight weeks, and the Korean lash lift results last six to eight weeks with no extensions or upkeep needed.

The studio describes its approach to skincare as holistic and skin-first, with a focus on intention, simplicity and results. It presents the space as welcoming, safe and inclusive, and it suits clients who prefer a minimalist approach with personalized treatments.
