I love this luxurious, hydrating and calming face oil. It feels and smells amazing on my skin. I plan to use restoring oil year round, mixing it up with the other incredible and beautiful face oils BK offers. I am a massive fan!

I had my first facial today by Shi and it was truly my favorite ever! Shi put on this spray and I knew I had to have it! Smells like the most beautiful rose garden! I will never go without it! The products are amazing!

Shiloah first is so amazing! She was prompt and ready to spend an hour of pure relaxation and treatment for my face. She took the time to explain every step and customized my facial specifically for my needs. I have had many facials in my life but this one by far was the very best! Book your facial as soon as you can, you won’t be disappointed!

After a very stressful day! Getting a treatment for acupuncture was just what I needed! I highly recommend getting acupuncture and taking the time to recharge.

As a first time acupuncture client I didn’t know what to expect and was anticipating that I’d have to do numerous treatments before feeling the benefits or understanding the process. Wow! I was pleasantly surprised. Vida and the serenity of the room instantly put me at ease. Vida greeted me with a warm welcome and talked me through the process. We discussed my concerns and she listened! I didn’t feel the needles and immediately fell into a dreamlike state of relaxation. I fell asleep and awoke to a handwritten note explaining the benefits and how it could help me in my journey of wellness.
I highly recommend Vida and look forward to many more treatments. 💚

I had my first Sculpt and Lift facial with Shiloah. Her products and techniques left my skin nourished, plumper and glowing. I love the Liquid Layer mist and Anti-Aging Oil for my face and the Healing Oil is something I use on my arms for those dry bumps I get on the back of them. Even though I came in for a facial, my whole body was relaxed by the special heated mattress on the facial bed and Shi’s peaceful demeanor. Shi is not only a talented technician, she is sweet, thoughtful, kind and absolutely adorable! I’ll be seeing her again.

I didn’t expect to be walking into By Karisse Altiera for acupuncture just one day after knee surgery—but something in me needed a shift. I was exhausted, emotionally drained, and honestly just wanted to crawl into bed. But a quiet voice whispered, “Give yourself this moment.” So I did.
The second I met Vida, I felt it—this wasn’t going to be like any acupuncture session I’d had before. She wasn’t trying to fix me or impress me. She was simply present, grounded, and exactly what my nervous system needed. I got on the table with a racing heart, but the moment her hands touched me, I felt safe. My body softened. My mind let go. And for the first time in days, I rested.
I’m so grateful we get to offer this kind of care—where healing isn’t just physical, it’s energetic, emotional, and deeply human.

I had the most incredible acupuncture session with Vita—truly one of the most relaxing, rejuvenating experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment I arrived, her calm and nurturing energy set the tone. During the session, I could actually feel my energy shifting and releasing. It felt like a full reset for both my body and mind. I walked out feeling lighter, clearer, and completely renewed. Vita has such a powerful, healing presence. If you’re looking for deep relaxation and real energetic transformation, I can’t recommend her enough. Ryan is absolutely amazing—professional, warm, and deeply passionate about creating a truly relaxing and high-quality experience. You can feel the care and intention she puts into every detail of the spa.

The picture i’m including here is not fun to look at, but it just shows you how incredibly healing acupuncture can be. These photos are 48 hours apart. I took a bad fall at Laguna Beach high school was rushed to the trauma center, received 10 stitches and could not even open my eye. I had two sessions with Vida and am absolutely thrilled with the results. I fell asleep during my first session after initially being nervous to book the treatment. I’m grateful for acupuncture as well as the healing oil product from By Karisse. I can’t believe how much better my face is looking just days after a scary accident. Please take my word for it and give yourself the gift of acupuncture.

I am no stranger to acupuncture, and Vida does an exceptional job. Her energy is so grounded and intuitive and I feel amazing in her care. And experiencing it in the beautiful By Karisse treatment room makes the experience so amazing!

I went in not really knowing what to expect, and Vida immediately put me at ease with her knowledge and warm demeanor. Not only did she give me a wonderfully relaxing acupuncture session, but she is such a wealth of knowledge for all things health, diet, etc.
I’ll definitely be making this a regular part of my health/maintenance routine!

Lovd the products

I had the absolute pleasure of receiving the 60-minute Gua Sha Facial with Danielle at the new Facial Atelier—and it was nothing short of transformative. From start to finish, the experience was deeply relaxing, professional, and truly restorative. Danielle has such a warm, friendly presence and an intuitive touch that made me feel both at ease and completely cared for. Not only did I leave with glowing, lifted skin, but I also gained a better understanding of how to support my skin’s natural rhythms. It was more than a facial—it was a full-body exhale. I can’t wait to go back!

This is my second bottle, and I have literally applied it to every part of my body that needs TLC. (Booboo here, booboo there.) It is simply the best, simply amazing product. Try it, you'll like it, too. Guaranteed.

All Over Whip is probably the most unique product I have used for body moisturizer. The whipped texture and the way it melts is so soothing. Also, the scent is amazing! Another wonderful product!

I've been hearing about the vagus nerve for a while now and wondered who might have the best product. After much review, I chose ByKarisse, and very glad I did. The roller ball applicator makes applying so easy, and the beautiful quartz stone massaging tool elevates the whole ritual. Oh, did i mention i love the scent? Very calming. They even included a card with specific directions in case you need it. I did. I've noticed an improvement in my sleep, and will continue to apply and massage every night.

A million thank yous is what I feel like I owe By Karisse. I have psoriasis. It’s an embarrassing, awful condition to suffer from. The worst place in my opinion that psoriasis can show up is on my face. Recently, I noticed three different spots on my face that were breaking out in psoriasis. I happen to have a bottle of healing oil and decided to see if it would help my psoriasis when I applied it to the spots on my face not only did it make those areas look refreshed with glow skin, but over the course of a few days of using it every day it has basically arrested the psoriasis and stopped it from spreading anywhere else on my face. I have suffered from psoriasis for decades and your product is the first product. I have tried out of many that has helped me this much with the condition. Thank you so much for your awesome healing oil.

I love this oil. It's so moisturizing and smells great. I use it am and pm. When I wake up my skin looks firm and is glowing. I'll definitely reorder.

I’m not one to get my makeup done. I prefer a much more natural look than most services offer for make up. Shiloh’s did an excellent job- I had a very elevated and natural look that lasted all night long. There is no smudging fading smearing. Everything held its place perfectly!

I having been using the anti aging oil for only 20 days and am loving it. Highly recommended!

I’m impressed with the healing oil. Smells great and works wonders!

The scent! It is by far my favorite oil that I have tried

Very happy with her body oil. Scent is pleasant and it’s the right amount of greasy for Maine winters.

I’ve been using this oil got over a year. I cannot be without it! I use it for everything… burns, cuts/scrapes, my grandsons ouchies too.
I recently had hip replacement surgery. I’m using it on my big scar. Hope it heals quicker.
Wish I could buy a bigger size.
Also use on my face.

I absolutely adore using toning oil with my gua sha stone! The combination has become an essential part of my skincare routine. The oil absorbs quickly into my skin, providing the perfect amount of slip for the gua sha massage without leaving any greasy residue. Its delightful scent adds a lovely sensory element to my self-care ritual, making it a truly enjoyable experience.
What I appreciate most is how gentle this toning oil is on my sensitive skin. It doesn’t cause any irritation or redness, which is a huge relief. Instead, it leaves my skin feeling soothed, hydrated, and refreshed. The oil’s nourishing properties, combined with the gua sha technique, have noticeably improved my skin’s texture and tone.
I’ve found that this combination helps reduce puffiness and promotes lymphatic drainage, giving my face a more sculpted appearance. It’s also been great for improving circulation and promoting a healthy glow. Overall, the toning oil and gua sha stone duo has been a game-changer for my sensitive skin, providing both immediate and long-term benefits that I absolutely love.
