I have been getting facials with Mariya regularly in the last couple years. I haven’t done any regular treatments for a couple of years before I found Mariya. Just didn’t find anyone after the move… so let’s just say, it was quite a bit of work! Mariya offers very individualized care to each patient. No cookie cutter treatments. I am getting a different treatment every time, depending on what my body/face is telling her. Mariya knows the body and product chemistry, face map and has a lot of experience. It takes patience, consistency and discipline from both sides, if you want lasting results but you will get the best for your money! I had regular painful cystic breakouts when I started treatments and I realized I have not had any issues with that in a while. Mariya spends lots of time with her clients and is truly passionate about what she does! P.S. New location in Sorrento Mesa has plenty of parking and easy to access.

My goal was to do a brow wax but let me just say, I am not an expert on facials but this was the best facial treatment I ever had. A friend recommend Mariya to me who did her waxing here and so decided to try it out. It was a bit odd to go to a Salon inside the residential building but this place is more like a hotel and the salon is super cute! The first time I was there, the brow wax was $15 with a coupon deal and she took off another 15% because I was a first time client which was totally reasonable. The procedure was painless but Mariya told me that my skin is sensitive and that I should stay out of the sunlight and try threading next time. Not sure about the threading yet but she did convince me to try one of her facial treatments and SOOO happy i did! Just want to not that I did get some sensitivity in the eyebrow area afterwards but nothing unusual. So about the 2nd time, the glorious facial! I think the key here is the extraction because as good as regular facials that I’ve had before are, nothing clears the pores like this! I had some little marks after the extraction for like a day or two but my skin is so amazingly clear now! Don’t remember what the facial was called but I paid $65 for it and it lasted about an hour, maybe more. I think the pricing on her website is a bit confusing since I thought this would cost more so I think it makes sense to talk to her about exactly what she would recommend and double check the price. Because for the price I paid it was totally worth it. Will be back to Mariya’s again!

Found Mariya from living social, she is very nice and most importantly does a thorough job! After the first appointment I bought a package (Brazilian wax) have not been disappointed Just an update on my review, I continue to see Mariya on a regular basis, she is the best! I really like her new location, very easy, no parking issues.

Mariya is very proffessional. She knows what she is doing. I do not have good skin and don’t do much to take care of it. She was frank about what was needed, how much it cost, method of payment and she came on a weekend to accommodate me. My skin looked better just after one treatment. I will be going back….

I found Mariya’s services on living social. I liked that she was very accommodative and scheduled me on the same day. The location isn’t best. It is inside of a residential building. The front desk people were nice and helped with the detections. When I met Mariya downstairs, she gave me a form to fill out and even though it wasn’t my first time for Brazilian waxing, she explained to me the process. Mariya was as fast as some cosmetologists, BUT I had almost no ingrowns after this waxing. Mariya is definitely a cosmetologists that choose quality over quantity.

I’m not a make up person usually, Mariya just made it very elegant and natural. I just loved it very much that I could nt thank her more.

Mariya is honestly the best I’ve ever had!!:) I’ve been to several places for hair removal and waxing services and she provides the most comfortable and painless service! Other times when I have gotten bikini or brazilians I have had issues with irritation or ingrown hairs after, however with Mariya this does not happen. I will be returning to Mariya for all my waxing needs.

I have been going to Mariya’s salon for about two years now for eyebrow threading. She is absolutely incredible. Her techniques are great and she always makes sure that me, as the client, is comfortable and well attended. Having lived in London on and off for the past four years, I have had eyebrow threading there as well. Even in such a fast paced city as this, I have never had an esthetician come close to Mariya in her skill and customer care. If you have never tried eyebrow threading, I would definitely recommend it and the only place to have it done is at Mariya’s salon!

Just had a facial with Mariya yesterday. The process with making the appointment was great – she was very responsive, and I can be difficult to schedule with. Her facial was really, really good – I was impressed. I had a deep pore cleansing facial – she was very thorough, yet gentle, and my skin feels and looks great today (and did yesterday as well). She also did a very good job with making me feel relaxed, and using all sorts of great things on my face. I especially liked that nothing she used had a strong scent. I use really natural skincare, and it felt like what she was using must be fairly natural as well. If I could vote for one improvement – which really does not count as part of a facial review, it’s this… when I’ve had facials before (and I’ve only had 4 or 5 in my life), it’s always included a hand or foot massage, usually while the mask was on – and that’s something she didn’t do. If she had, boy, it would have been exceptional. But I’m still definitely a fan, and can highly recommend her!

I’ve been going to see Mariya for over a year now, and I’ve really noticed a difference in my skin. Her knowledge of methods, peels, and overall skin care is excellent. It’s the best hour you can spend pampering your face. I highly recommend trying her out, and I think you’ll be very happy. Thanks Mariya!!

I was suggested Mariya by my dermatologist about a year ago for my adult acne. I have been most satisfied with her ability. She has magic fingers that seem to rejuvenate my skin. With the healthy products she uses and her trained skill I have seen and been told there is a remarkable difference in my skin.

The best facial I’ve ever had, better than the fanciest salons! All the services are top notch.

Mariya’s skin care goes beyond excellence in the skin care industry. The products are superb and the facials are like nothing I’ve experienced before. If had to rate them 1-10 I would give them a 10. Thank you Mariya!”

I’ve been coming to Mariya’s almost 16 years and I’ve never found another spa that gives better facials. The massages, body scrubs, facials and skin care are the best in the city. There is no better place to de-stress and pamper yourself. Excellent service!

I have been going to Mariya’s Skin Care since 1995, and have been very pleased with the service each time. Mariya does a good job with lip, brow and bikini waxing. Her facials are incredible.She’s very knowledgeable in the area of skin care, especially with sensitive skin.

On Wedding Make-up Thank you Mariya for making my big day awesome! My skin and eyebrows were fabulous! Any brides to be – I highly reccomend the Bride Package, a series of treatments with chocolate and champagne – talk about feeling like a princess. Its the perfect way to get some relaxation before the big day!

Lovely, relaxing, deep-cleaning facial, complexion-improving peel…regardless of your skin-care needs Mariya is first-rate. She is very accommodating, a true professional, and her new location is nicer and still very convenient.

Mariya has been taking care of me and my brows for 16 years! She is a beautiful artist, and I love the pampering she includes in a brow wax. The aromatherapy and calming music with her gentle touch have made look forward to each visit. Who can you trust with your eye brows? Mariya. She is the best! (And her facials are out of this world!)

Mariya was awesome 🙂 She gave me my first Brazilian wax ever and she walked me through it and was really comforting. She has a special – $35 for first time clients, price is originally $50 and up. I also did a back facial. Overall I was very satisfied 😀 Will be coming back.

I have been going to Mariya for threading for several months now and she does a wonderful job, I have very sensitive skin and I never leave with redness or irritation.
Chrissy C. San Diego, CA
Mariya is fabulous. I have been a client for 10 years, and her work has consistent through this entire time. I made the mistake of trying a different aesthetician who was closer to my house a few years ago, and realized I made a huge mistake when that person hacked my eyebrows. Mariya’s facials are also a relaxing experience. You won’t be disappointed!
