About Carmen
I'm Carmen, a licensed esthetician and Colorado native.
My facials are built around Korean skincare, which focus on deep hydration, a healthy skin barrier, and gentle, consistent care. Over 20 years in day spas, med spas and plastic surgery clinics taught me how skin responds, and that experience guides every treatment.
Why Korean Skincare?
A few years ago, an esthetician I’d known for years on Facebook started posting before-and-after photos of her clients. The results stood out, and every esthetician in our circle wanted to know what she was doing. I was one of them. I started reading about Korean skincare and couldn’t stop.
What I found was a different way of thinking about skin. Western skincare tends to focus on correcting a problem, often with stronger actives, and treating each concern as it shows up. Korean skincare starts with the health of the skin itself. It puts hydration and a strong skin barrier first, uses lightweight layers that skin absorbs well, and favors gentle, consistent care over harsh treatments. The idea is that skin that’s hydrated and calm looks better, tolerates treatment better, and holds its results longer.
That approach made sense to me after more than 20 years of working with skin, and it’s what I now build every facial around.
What to expect
Every visit starts with a full skin analysis and a conversation about what's behind your skin concerns. Then I customize your facial to fit. You'll leave with a clear explanation of what I did and why, plus a home care plan.
Who I work with
Many of my clients come to me for hyperpigmentation, hormonal breakouts, and sun damage. Others just want 90 minutes of relaxation while getting their customized treatment.
