About

Not Your Basic Skin is a skincare studio in Solana Beach run as a solo esthetician practice. The owner, Kristine Currier, handles client care herself, so each visit is one-on-one. The studio describes itself as high-end and boutique, and it works from a private, quiet setting.

The menu covers chemical peels, including a back treatment paired with a peel and the Factor Five chemical peel. It also offers dermaplaning on its own or added to other services, several facial options including an acne facial, an anti-aging facial and a custom facial built around each client, and microneedling with SkinPen. Red light therapy uses Celluma medical-grade LED on the face or full body. A set of CO2 treatments, including a single CO2 mask and a three-session CO2Lift pack, rounds out the menu.

There is also a combined session called the 60 Minute Masterpiece, which brings together dermaplaning, CryotouchMD and mesotherapy in one appointment. The studio lists HydroDiamond, radiofrequency, electroporation, oxygen infusion, ultrasonic scrubber, lymphatic and cryotherapy treatments among its offerings.

Booking policies ask for at least 24 hours' notice to cancel or reschedule. Cancellations made inside 24 hours carry a 20% fee, no-shows are charged 20%, and late arrivals pay the full service cost, with the session possibly shortened. Changes can be made by phone, by email or through the online booking system. The studio is open daily from 8:30 AM to 8 PM and accepts payments.

The studio works one-on-one and builds treatments around each client's skin, using a mix of advanced technology and skincare products. It says its treatments aim for visible, lasting results.

A private, tranquil setting in a studio space.
