About

UrbanSkin was rebuilt in Moraga in 2021 under its current name by founder Sandra Martin, a licensed esthetician whose career in skincare began in Berkeley at a medical spa. After losing her previous space during the pandemic, she reopened her practice here. The business says some of its clients have been coming to her for about twenty years. Clients enter through the back entrance of Sissi's Cafe, and the studio is on the right.

The business describes skin as a matter of health rather than luxury, and it uses fewer products, chosen based on evidence. A first visit includes a review of the client's current home-care routine. The approach is to understand the skin, treat what it needs at that point, and then maintain the result. The business says it does not chase trends or give every client the same facial each month by default. Treatment is kept separate from relaxation services.

Appointments are reserved online, and a credit card is kept on record to secure each one. Changes or cancellations received under 48 hours before the appointment, along with no-shows, incur a fee of 50% of the treatment's price. The phone line at (925) 330-7304 accepts text messages only and cannot take voice calls.

The main offerings are the Glass Skin Reset, a first-visit program that is the starting point for new clients; Teen Acne Reset, for ages 13 to 18; Collagen Renewal, a regular light peel; corrective peels for established clients; and waxing and brow services using a soy-based wax. The business also says that when a treatment is not the right fit, the practitioner will tell the client and may suggest laser treatment, a dermatologist or another professional.

Treats skin as health rather than luxury, using fewer products chosen on evidence, with each visit built around what the skin needs at that point and on keeping the result up.
