Nanskin Love Notes

From my very first visit with the beautiful Nan, where I was pampered and with an amazing facial, I emerged looking and feeling better than I can ever remember. I had spent years being self-conscious about my face and struggling with skin issues. Nan’s expertise, common-sense, high quality products, and amazing service have made a visible and fabulous difference in the feel and appearance of my face.

Once upon a time I had clown eyebrows. You know the kind that makes you look perpetually surprised and results from a bad waxing job or botched plastic surgery. Then I met Nan. Not only did she fix my brows but she made my skin look phenomenal! Twenty years later I am a devout once a month European facial kinda gal and am the proud recipient of frequent compliments on my great skin. Thanks Nan!

I have been coming to Nan for her fabulous facials for the past 25 years — sometimes as often as 2 or 3 times a month! Not only do I come for the amazing treatments and products, but also for the sheer nurturing pleasure of being in Nan’s private, relaxing, cozy paradise of sound, scent and healing — a space from which I always emerge rejeuvenated. Nan has a true gift for caring…for the skin as well as for the mind and spirit.

Nanskin is one of San Francisco’s wonderful jewels. Nan has transformed my sense of beauty and the importance of skin care. Nothing is better than going to her peaceful oasis, relaxing with a glass of fruit infused water and getting the full pampering Nan treatment! I have even brought my kids to see Nan!

NANSKIN feels like finding a little slice of chic spa paradise in the city. Stepping into the facial room feels like a temple space with great tunes. Nan cleans clogged pores like nobody’s business with a passion and thoroughness unmatched. I always leave Nanskin feeling refreshed, renewed & radiant!

My daughter and I both love going to the world of Nan which is peaceful, pampering, luxurious, and well divine! My only regret is we don’t get to go as often as we would like.

I might set a record – I’ve been coming to Nanskin for fabulous treatments for over 30 years! There is no one like Nan. She is simply the best and her products are fabulous, practical, reliable and reasonable. She has enriched my life tenfold and I can only hope she continues her magic!

I finally found Nan after my dermatologist Dr Kathy Fields recommended her. As a physician myself, I was impressed by Nan’s knowledge in various dermatological problems and by her techniques. After a very thorough and deep cleaning by Nan, my skin is smooth and calm without any bumps. Thank you Nan for making me feel more beautiful and confident.

I wonder why I’ve waited so long to visit Nan when I always emerge from the salon glowing with supple clear hydrated skin. Besides all the peels, masks and steaming there’s the fun girl-chat and it all contributes to improving my entire being. Also, I can’t live without Bee Beautiful–smells amazing and heals any little skin abrasion too- like that boyfriend beard-burn!

Over the past 2 decades Nan has provided me with beautiful, glowy skin and I choose her for the ultimate facial experience. I completely adore her “chill” courtyard space, a place where I can relax, let go and be pampered by Nan. Her products are among the best I’ve ever used and she is always generous with the samples. Nan is definitely on my crave list.

I first went for a facial after the make-up artist for my wedding had highly recommended her to me. Not only do I walk out after a facial with skin that looks and feels great, but Nan always arms me with a few goodies to try out and a list of some fab restaurants or services to check out too. I love love love her products! My skin gets wrecked when I have run out of her stuff and have to use something else.

Nan focuses on extractions in her facials and in conjunction with her peels, my face is always healed and glowing when I leave and continues to improve in the days afterwards. Since I’ve been seeing Nan regularly, my skin has never looked better. Her products are fantastic and she will tailor them just for your needs. She never gives a one size fits all facial but really focuses on individual needs and specific problems. She makes you look and feel beautiful.

In 1991, I lucked out and made an appointment with a facialist down the street from where I lived in the city. I chose this particular place based solely on location but ended up with the best facial, facial products and facialist I had ever had! I continued to see Nan once a month for the next 10 years that I lived in the city. I miss seeing my good friend Nan on a regular basis but I continue to use her products. In short, no one compares to Nan. Her facials are the best in the world and I have the skin to prove it.

I always make sure to go to Nanskin at least twice a year. I have been “Nanonized” for the last 25 years. I feel that she has customized a facial just for me. I highly recommend Nanskin as THE place to go for a facial. In fact, I make the trip from Palo Alto because I know she will take care of me.

One afternoon, I was trading pimple stories with a co-worker who then told me about her sister’s acne and how Nan was able to clear it all up. One visit to Nanskin and the change was immediate. Nan did a mini-facial and clogged pores were extracted. By the time I saw her again my forehead was pretty much cleared up without any scarring. Years and moves later, I still see Nan on a regular basis. I’ve since sent a handful of friends to her, whom all have also raved to me about Nan. I heart Nan, and her Nanskin.
