Bluemercury

I just had the modern facial and added the microdermabrasion. Alla provided the service and she was FANTASTIC!!!
I absolutely loved the oxygen therapy at the end.
Please go in and ask for Alla, you will not be disappointed!!!

I’ve had facials over the last 35 years so I can tell you I’ve had bad ones and good ones but the very best I’ve had was from Brianna Garcia at Blue Mercury she’s the best so knowledgable about her products and so focus on me she made me feel so relax her massage technique was amazing my skin felt amazing at end of service I felt pampered. I see her every six weeks for a facial and have seen great results in my skin. And I really enjoy the products she recommended for me, she knew what was best for my skin. Also her technique for waxing is so great it hardly hurts!

This review is based on the spa services I had with Brianna Garcia.
I had a modern facial ($ 95 for 50 minutes) and have NEVER had a better facial. Brianna really took the time to find out what my skin concerns were, and what I was trying to achieve. She customized the perfect blend of products to suit my skin type, and explained to me why she chose the ones she did. At this point she could put whatever she wanted on my face because I felt completely confident that she knew exactly what she was doing. You can really sense her passion for what she is doing and her excitement when she is talking about products she loves. During the facial she cleansed, toned, masked, and massaged (20 mins!!) me until I pretty much fell asleep. At the end of my service she did an oxygen treatment which I learned eliminates all bacteria from your skin. Pretty amazing.
Also THE WAXING. YES. You can trust her with your brows + any other area. Added bonus: she is super quick!
Basically, you need to go and see Brianna. She will hook your skin up, and you’ll be so thankful you found her.

Brianna, an esthetician here, really knows what she’s doing. I didn’t feel like I was just «in and out» when I was getting waxed, like I’ve experienced at other places. I actually felt like she listened to my concerns about my massive eyebrows and acne. She told me about some products that were specific to my concerns, and didn’t just shove the most expensive thing down my throat. I was amazed that she actually knew about every little ingredient in the products. It’s nice to encounter people these days who actually take pride in their work and clients.

(This review is for the store only, I haven’t been to the spa).
I’m a makeup junkie and spend a ton of money on skincare and cosmetics. I was pretty excited when I heard about this new shop opening at Bridgeport.
I went in later at night and it was a bit slow. Thank goodness, because I don’t think one could browse easily with more than a few people inside. The brands were just what you’d find at Nordstrom or Sephora, but the shopping experience was not nearly as good. I like to swatch and try things on before I commit to a $ 30+ lipstick or eyeshadow, but the store isn’t really set up for experimentation. I did swatch a few shades, but couldn’t find makeup remover anywhere, nor was I offered any (even when the salesperson saw me struggling to get lipstick off my hand).
The salesperson was so stinkin’ pushy and wouldn’t let me look in peace. If I say I don’t need blush, don’t keep harping about how I need to buy a blush to go with my new lipstick. I was pushed everything from candles to blush to holiday sets to skincare, even though I said I just wanted to browse. I’m guessing they work on commission, but this was extreme and totally obnoxious. Also, the person checking out next to me was loaded down with samples and freebies, probably because they spent more than I did (I get that, I know how life works). But my sales lady was clearly panicked that I was going to want some too and kept worriedly glancing over at her coworker, who was making her customer giddy with all the free stuff. I felt really awkward and even though I wasn’t expecting a goody bag of samples, I do think it was tacky she didn’t even offer me one tiny little sample of anything. Especially when there was a giant jar of samples directly behind the counter and I was still spending a decent amount of money on one thing.
Needless to say, I left feeling annoyed and wondered why I spent my money there, when I could have racked up some points at Sephora or had a nice consultation at Nordstrom or Blush in NW. Nothing about the product presentation, variety, or customer service entices me to return. Oh, they have a mediocre return policy too (only store credit, vs the full refund offered at Nordies or Sephora).
