Skinperfect Aesthetics and Beauty Bar

I’ve had several facials here over the past few months and really appreciate the customized approach that Darla offers. My skin is constantly changing and she always knows exactly what to recommend given my circumstances. She is very accommodating and always runs on time.

Went in for a filler and botox with Kelly she is so kind and patient and knows how to makes you relax. Best of all she makes you look beautiful!

Great service and friendly! I went there for the first time and had a great experience. Definitely going back. I had an eye brow waxing and tint. Great job ! Painless waxing also.

Just went to Skinperfect today and had an awesome experience with Jennifer!
I’m not a femme-​girl, I don’t know makeup, I don’t do my brows. But I decided to get my brows shaped for the first time after watching way too many Youtube eyebrow videos.
My eyebrows were a mess and a half. I don’t tweeze, or use little pencils or whatever. They just kind of curl into some shape and I just pretend that they aren’t that bad. Jennifer put me at ease, complimented their natural shape, and got to work. She was done in under 5 minutes, though I could tell she was doing a lot. But she was very fast, and the wax (also first time with any wax on me, ever) was quick and pretty painless. It was a little warm going on, but not at all painful coming off.
But I also mentioned that I’m trying to just makeover myself, learn how to use makeup, but my coloring is so yellow that it’s hard for me to do anything but put on chapstick and mascara. So she took a few minutes and did a face of makeup for me, matched me pretty well right off the bat, with the concealer, foundation, concealer, etc. She did it so quick, and for free just to show me the basics before I headed off to Ulta and Sephora. And it looks so nice.
Probably the best 15 minutes of my year. I’m feeling like a new chick with new eyebrows!
Thanks Jennifer!

The only place I trust! Highly recommend Skinperfect for all your waxing and skincare needs! Darla is an amazing person and highly skilled esthetician! She makes waxing as painless, quick and easy as possible. I live in Seattle but happily drive to Burien because of Skinperfect! Darla, thank you for reminding me today why I will never go anywhere else for my waxing services!

The best Brazilian experience ever! It was the quickest and the least painful waxing I’ve ever had! Darla was so amazing and made me feel so comfortable and relaxed. So glad to find this place in my neighborhood, now i don’t have to drive all the way to downtown or capitol hill to get a Brazilian!

Just moved to WA and have been researching wax places since then. I decided to go with this place and am 100% satisfied. The woman was direct, quick, and comfortable with no weird vibes. The place is clean so that is a huge plus/​priority.

I went in to Skinperfect last Saturday and had the new facial Dermaplane. Carrie was my esthetician, she took her time and did a great job. My skin felt and looked amazing! While she was doing it Darla (owner) came in a couple of times to make sure everything was going well and gave a couple of pointers to Carrie as it is a new procedure. I would highly recommend paying a visit to Skinperfect Sea for all of your skin care needs!
Sincerely,
Patty J

The best ever! Come in and give it a try love Darla she’s the best, cares about you and what you’r needs are

One of my best experiences! I have been getting Brazilians for the past 10 years and I have had an unpleasant experience in the past so I’m always very nervous about going somewhere new. Unilocal helped me find this location and I am grateful. Highly recommend for any body wax. Very professional and pleasant!

This is by far one of my favorite places to go and receive excellent services from all the Estheticians that work at this facility. Such a cute place :)

I went in here with my mother a couple months ago to return some lipstick that she bought (was not opened). My mom had a voucher for products that she got at the time she got the lipstick and was hoping to return the lipstick and use the voucher at the same time. Darla was the women behind the counter, who I later learned was the owner, and went on to tell my mother that the person who gave her the voucher and serviced her that day a couple months ago was mistaken and should not have given her that. She went on to be very rude and eventually walked away telling the sales associate to deal with us because she just couldn’t anymore. I told my mom I had to go outside at that point because I was so furious and shocked that someone would treat us that way for no reason. Don’t take it out on your customers that your associate messed up. She seemed to think that because she was honoring the voucher that she was doing a good deed, but her attitude made it very clear that she wished we never walked in the door. I would not recommend this place to anyone until that lady is no longer a part of the establishment.
If you do go there, see Jennifer. She is fantastic! Do not go there unless she takes care of you and she is working.

Today I was on a wild goose chase trying to find ANYONE that could take me for a last minute Brazilian. I called here and Darla answered the phone and was SOOOO sweet, accommodating and very helpful with prep tips before I came in. When I arrived she was welcoming, showed me about her ADORABLE salon/​spa and step by step walked me through my firsts experience. she did an amazing job. Fast, helpful, sweet and made me feel 100% comfortable. I booked my next appointment and have recommended her to my sister and a few other family members. Will be a regular here now! And ALSO, the Brazilian was $ 69!!! SCORE! Totally worth the drive from kent to The heart of old Burien. Lots of cute boutiques and amazing bar and grills on the same block!

The owner and employees are super nice folks. Unfortunately the quality has slipped on the brow tinting. A couple of times they did the wrong color and last time my brows were tinted unevenly. I think this is because they rush through the treatment so quickly.

I don’t even know where to start — I have been a long time customer of Skin Perfect and I always request Jennifer. If you’re going to go to get any service I recommend Jennifer — not Darla. Darla is «fake nice» and pretends to be customer focused but if you go there long enough you will see her true colors. I have had Darla for services a few times by default even if I request Jennifer. I do however recommend my friends to go to Skin Perfect because it’s the closet to our house but I tell them to ask for Jennifer and if Darla is working don’t book an appointment. Below are just some conversation that have happened to me over the last few months.
Scenario 1: I went in for a service in September and the girl and the front desk let me know Darla was running late. Not a huge deal so I sat and waited. When Darla came out (15 mins later) she says to me «Your sister made me late». I was slightly taken back by this — you’re blaming my sister for you being late. 1^st off, that’s unprofessional and 2^nd off, even if my sister was late why should that have any effect on me or my service or it to be implied it was «my fault» that my sister made me late. Ridiculous!
Scenario 2: I went in again for a service and Darla is openly talking with another adult in the lobby about her dislike for St. Francis and the principal (using her name) along with other horrible things to do say about the school, teachers, classes sizes and cost about the school that sends her kids too — I also was shocked that she would publicly have this conversation the place she works and owns. For all she knows — the school principal could be my mother.
Scenario 3: I went in last month for a service and Darla laid her political views on me. She 1^st spoke about how she was against the Undocumented Students in WA to be able to apply for and receive aid for college tuition. Because she never had assistance for college. Then in the same appointment she also talked about how she was 100% against the increase in in minimum wage and that if it goes up in WA she will have to find a college graduate to work the front desk.
Lastly, the one thing I think is really tacky is they try to charge a «cancelation fee» if you have to change your appointment more than 48 hrs in advance. I have never been to any kind of salon or had service that changes a cancellation fee– plus how will you enforce that? Send out bills to customers that cancel? They are not a doctors offer.
I’m giving Skin Perfect 2 stars on this review — Those starts are because Jennifer is GREAT and is everything Darla is not.

Darla has been my go to gal for waxing for the past 4 or 5 years now! I love that she generally always is on time with her scheduling so I can have an appointment during my lunch hour. Skinperfect’s new remodel is gorgeous and I love the products they carry. Burien is lucky to have a quality esthetician locally!

I had seen Darla at Skinperfect over 6 years ago when I was a junior in high school. I was in need of a brow wax and facial (Christmas gift to myself) and I remembered how wonderful Darla was!
I was not disappointed when I walked through the doors. Darla is very professional and is completely concerned with my comfort level. She also explains what she is using on my face, so I know what works and what she is using. If anyone is looking for a great place to relax and rejuvenate, GO SEE DARLA at Skinperfect!

I love Darla, her services, product and darling jewelry. This is a local business I’ve supported now for almost a year and will continue to!

Got a brow tint-​lasted a week. Not too bad and it was only $ 15.
Got a bikini wax, WHOA MAMA! It wasn’t as horrifying as I had expected. Jennifer was really nice, made me feel comfortable and did a good job at the waxing part-​pulling the strips away super fast and causing little sting. I will say however, as it was my first waxing experience I was dissapointed in dealing with the collage of red bumps the very next day. I’m sure this is my skins fault but more or less I had no idea this might be an issue or how to handle it and in retrospect, would have appreciated a heads up or some post waxing maintanance tips from Jennifer. Google had my back though. Thanks Google!
I’ll give it another go. They are expanding their studio into the store next to them so i’ll definitely want to come by and check it out. Get re-​tinted and maybe even test their mani/pedi’s. In the interim, I’ll be watching to see other reviews come up. I did see some bare minerals and may want to get a little testing makeover at some point to see if I want to expand my look!

The staff is very professional and friendly. I asked Darla (the owner) for recommendations for my skin and was given a complete instruction guide for skin care with the recommended products. I noticed improvement in my skin in less than a week! It was smoother, with a brighter and clearer tone.
Not to mention their fast and efficient Brazilians
I like to support local businesses whenever I can and this is one of the best out there!!!
