Transforming spirit through touch

Transforming spirit through touch

Your skin holds everything you've lived, and it deserves care that's as restorative as it is effective. My unhurried facials, 90 to 120 minutes of clinical skincare and generous hands-on massage, help your skin balance and regenerate while you finally get to exhale.

Book With Me

Two ways to restore.

Whether you come for your skin, your stillness, or both, every session is guided by the same healing touch.

Clinical Facials

Rejuvenate. Regenerate. Release.

Unhurried 90 to 120 minute facials with generous hands-on massage, customized for your skin's needs, from pigmentation and acne to dryness, sensitivity, and loss of radiance.

SKIN IN EVERY SEASON OF LIFE

Perimenopause, menopause, and the years beyond can bring dryness, pigmentation, breakouts, sensitivity, and changes in firmness. I support these concerns with customized facials and professional homecare, in a calm space where you can take a break from everything else. I believe in supporting skin through every stage of life, never fighting it.

Results you can take home.


I use the full Lira Clinical range of products in my facials and homecare recommendations. I love this line because it was created by warm, innovative women right here in the San Francisco/Bay Area who are always researching new ingredients and delivery technologies to make their products even better. Whatever your skin needs, I'll build a simple routine around it so your results continue between visits.

My approach

After nearly three decades in skincare, I'm still inspired by the body and spirit's natural ability to heal when given the nourishment it needs: nutritionally, energetically, and spiritually.

  • I am so delighted to have found an esthetician who is loving and kind in her approach to skin care and even self care for that matter. Kim is passionate about women and making them feel comfortable in their own skin. 

    Megumi F

  • Kimberly - she is the jewel in the crown. I love seeing her. She is an amazing waxer, excellent facialist, and an all around great person. Her table side manner is unequaled.

    Devon W

  • Kimberly is absolutely amazing! My skin glows for weeks after visiting.

    Milla L

  • Kimberly is great, she tailors the service to the customer and explains everything one needs! Her studio is restful and a wonderful peaceful respite in the city.

    Maria M

  • Best facial ever. Super friendly, thorough and enjoyable. I live in LA but make it a point to come to retreat whenever I’m in town. Couldn’t recommend more.

    Emma P

  • I love Kimberly and her amazing way of making this overworked mom relax and enjoy the moment.

    Tink E

  • After I started getting regular facials and using the products Kim recommends, I no longer needed to see a dermatologist or use acne meds. Miraculous! She's kept my skin glowing, beautiful, and wrinkle-free for over 15 years.
