Holistic Facial Services
Holistic facials at our Laguna Beach studio, each one built around your skin on the day you come in.
Which facial is right for you
Every facial at By Karisse is built in the room. Your esthetician looks at your skin that day, asks where you are holding tension, and works from there, with the botanical oils and layers we make by hand in Laguna Beach. Start with how much time you have and what your face is asking for.
- Custom Signature Gua Sha Facial, 60 minutes. Hands-on work and traditional gua sha for circulation, puffiness and facial tension. A good first facial.
- Custom Sculpt & Lift Facial, 75 minutes. More time through the jaw, cheeks and neck, for the places you hold the most.
- Custom Restorative Facial, 90 minutes. The longest visit, with manual work, steam and light-based support. For when you want to be taken care of.
- MACSL Lymphatic Facial, 60 or 90 minutes. A cleanse, exfoliation and mask built around the MACSL lymphatic method, with slow work from the head down to the rib cage.
- Sculptural Face Lifting, 60 minutes. A structural facial massage done entirely by hand, inside and outside the mouth. Muscle work, not skincare.
- Sound Bath Facial, 75 minutes. A holistic facial while singing bowls are played around you.
- CO2Lift Carboxy Facial, 75 minutes. A professional carboxytherapy treatment. No needles, no downtime.
- Custom Acne Facial, 60 minutes. Extractions and barrier care, adjusted to your skin that day. For tweens, teens and adults.
- Teen Athlete Facial, 40 minutes. Built for teen skin, with a short written routine to take home. A parent is welcome to stay.
Not sure? Book the gua sha facial. Your esthetician will tell you what she sees and what she would suggest next time.
Questions people ask
What happens at my first facial?
Your esthetician asks about your skin, your routine and where you feel tight. Then she cleanses, looks closely, and builds the rest of the hour around what she finds.
Which products do you use?
Our own. The oils, layers and cleansers are made by hand in small batches here in Laguna Beach. Some treatments add a professional product when your skin needs it.
Can I book a facial and acupuncture on the same day?
Yes. Many clients pair a facial with cosmetic acupuncture with Vida. Book them back to back online, or call 1-833-944-5723.
What is your cancellation policy?
We ask for 24 hours notice to change or cancel.
Where is the studio?
