Testimonials

“I have been a client of Claudia's for fifteen-plus years. This is quite simply the best facial you will ever have. Once you have been cared for by her you will not consider a facial anywhere else, no matter where your travels take you or your curiosity leads you. It is that good! Your entire experience with Claudia Colombo is special because she is. She has a gift for this kind of service and for knowing just what you need when she sees you. Her manner is both professional and comforting. Her studio is lovely, quiet and serene, like her. You emerge from your treatment relaxed and restored, as if you have been away, and this feeling lingers. As you leave her space, you are looking forward to your next visit.”

— Dr. Susan Gonella (NYC)

“I have been a loyal client of Claudia Colombo for about 16 years! I’m often told I look younger than I am and I owe it all to Claudia. Not only is she a visionary and trailblazer in the world of holistic skincare and well-being but in advanced skincare treatments. Everything you read these days that is “trending,” she has educated me on and/or performed these treatments and concepts years ago. I trust her guidance to help me navigate all sorts of health issues for myself, my family and even my pets. She is a walking wealth of knowledge—not to mention beautiful from the inside out!! My monthly treatments with her are sacred!”

— Jennifer Gilbert, NYC

“I first met Claudia Colombo in 2012 after a make up artist I was working with recommended her to me. My skin felt stressed from working a lot and all the traveling. I was desperately trying to find a place in New York that I could trust and where I felt safe as I had bad experiences before. From the moment I walked into Claudia’s treatment room, I felt relaxed. She created a wonderful space that resonates with my beliefs and after treatment my face is not only glowing but I am deeply relaxed. She combines organic skincare with innovative technologies and I have never had a better facial than with her. Every time I am back in New York, I make sure to see Claudia and I highly value her recommendations about skin care treatments and products. She doesn’t throw in gimmicks and works with products that truly work. I have recommended Claudia many times and no one has ever been disappointed. She is truly my skin hero!”

—Vanessa Breuer, Model (Ibiza, Spain)

“In 2005, a friend gifted me a facial with Claudia Colombo—talk about the gift that keeps on giving! I can’t count the number of times since then that I have received compliments on my skin, even now that I am in my mid-fifties. This appeals to my vanity, of course, but in a deeper way it makes me appreciate the ways in which Claudia supports my overall health and vitality. I’m committed to natural skincare, so I greatly value the fact that she is so knowledgeable about a range of modalities and always up-to-date on the latest non-invasive treatments (not to mention beautiful inside and out). I trust her implicitly and she has helped me navigate all sort of issues. I look forward to my visits with Claudia because I come away not only looking radiant but feeling profoundly soothed and healed.”

— Laura Silverman, The Outside Institute

“Claudia Colombo is hard for me to put into words other than I aspire to be more like her in my everyday life. Her commitment to holistic health and beauty and the passion she brings in wanting to educate others is something I have experienced first-hand and know I am better for it.”

— Samarah Daher, Refinery 29

“Claudia is an insightful, skillful, and extremely nurturing skincare expert. I’ve been seeing Claudia regularly for treatments over the last 13 years, and with each and every visit I leave with my skin looking and feeling dramatically more radiant and glowing! Claudia’s extensive experience, in-depth knowledge of holistic /natural remedies (both internal and external), and healing touch make each session a truly therapeutic and transformative experience. I have referred Claudia to my family and closest friends, and all have mirrored my sentiments.”

— Danielle, NYC

“More than a facial! When I need a reset, I go to Claudia Colombo who has an unbelievably vast repertoire of tools to coax one out of a dull state of affairs. I always look and feel radiant afterwards, but her treatments are not just skin deep. Claudia gives me a lot of positivity. I feel renewed motivation to get back on track after our sessions. Claudia reminds me to continue looking after myself when I seem to have forgotten the importance of doing so. The benefits redound not just to myself but to those whom I care for. Claudia, thank you for taking great care of me and setting such an excellent example and for being such an inspiration.”

— Eileen LaMorte, Corcoran Group

“Claudia Colombo was referred to me almost 10 years ago as the facialist I “must go to” after having a less than satisfactory experience at a “celebrity facialist” here in NYC. I fell in love with her treatments, her rock solid skin and nutritional advice, and her healing hands. My skin and I couldn’t be happier. She cuts through the riff raff, gives you only what you need, while also offering you state-of-the-art methods. She will be my facialist for life. And now I’m the one referring her to all my friends! Trust me, they too have become life long clients!”

— Tanya Zaben , Interior Monologue

“Claudia Colombo is a gem in the holistic skin therapy world. From the moment you step into her studio, you know that you have found a treasure and can feel Claudia’s passion. Her techniques are innovative and state of the art. Her products are the finest, all-natural products available on the market. Clients reap the benefits of her consistent continuing-education and love for the what she does. I have never once received the same facial because she looks deeply at my skin and determines exactly what would benefit me the most that day. It is always fabulously customized to me and my facial needs. My partner and I live in Paris and we still find ourselves on Claudia’s table every time we are in NYC for the perfect combination of skin care and relaxation.”

— Holly Horvath, (Paris, France)

“I have been a client of Claudia Colombo for 15 years, and my skin has improved dramatically thanks to her expertise. I am often mistaken for being a decade younger than I am. Claudia’s skin care offers a unique and creative blend of state of the art science and technology with gentle, holistic treatments. Claudia is skilled at analyzing the needs of each individual client and prescribing appropriate facials and products. My appointments with Claudia not only meet my skin care needs….they are my peace and sanity!”

— Debra, Bereavement Counselor (NY,NY)

“The best facial you will ever have! I’ve been a devoted fan of Claudia’s skin care expertise for over 20 years. She has a gift for giving facials that feel luxurious, while providing the most beneficial, targeted results. Plus Claudia only uses products with the finest, purest, cruelty-free ingredients - another reason to feel great about an already wonderful experience.”

— Heather Olson, NYC

“Claudia is amazing. I'm 58 and no one believes it. I credit this largely to Claudia. I started with facials but am now completing a series of micro-needling sessions, which sound scary but I have complete confidence in Claudia -- and my skin looks (and feels) amazing). She offers recommendations on complementary products and they've all been highly effective. I also just enjoy her company -- in the dog-eat-dog world of Manhattan's beauty industry she offers authenticity and kindness. Highly recommend.”

—Jennifer W., Yelp review

‘Who needs botox or facelifts when there's Claudia Colombo? She does organic, healing, amazingly effective treatments with the greatest dedication, always adding new tools to her impressive arsenal. Lately I've been doing the Face Sculptor treatments (once a season in view of the price...) and they shave off years like a slicer shaves off cheese (priceless!).”

— ML S., Yelp review

“I have been going to Claudia for many years after trying spa facials. There really is no comparison. Claudia knows my skin, uses wonderful natural products and I always leave feeling like I have a glow. She is a wonderful person on top of doing a fabulous job with my skin. I really enjoy my facials and look forward to them and my chats with her - an even a nap! Can't recommend her enough!”

– D.K., Yelp review

“This was the best facial I've ever had, hands down! Claudia is extremely knowledgeable, gentle, and talented - she genuinely cares about your skin and carefully assess your skin before the facial so she truly knows how to best benefit you. She takes her time and does a great job making you feel relaxed. I genuinely trust her judgement on my skin and can't wait to go back!”

— Casey K., Yelp review

“I've been going for years and this is the best facial and best products in manhattan. My skin is sensitive and moody AT BEST and I've never had a problem. My skin looks amazing after a treatment. Best facial you will ever have. Hands down. If you can get in, you need to go!!! And brows are money well spent!!!!!”

– Nic D., Yelp review

“I'm so happy to have been referred to Claudia. I've had many facials in my day and this one truly stood out - not only is Claudia very knowledgeable about skincare, she really personalized the experience to ensure that I received the best possible treatment for my skin. It is obvious that she truly cares about her clients - in addition to providing an incredibly thorough facial, she also gave a relaxing massage, recommendations for vitamins that would work based on my skin type as well as samples to try. She immediately felt like a friend I had known for ages. My skin still feels great and I will definitely be going back. Highly recommend!! A+”

– Robin D., Yelp review

“Having combination acne-prone skin can be a very frustrating thing. Finding the right combo of products and having the right hands on my face are very important to me. I've been to many estheticians throughout the city, so I know a good facial. I love Claudia's holistic angle when working with her clients. She not only knows about the skin but has an awareness of how things going on within us can create what's going on in our skin. I felt very comfortable with her immediately. I've been having a more problematic skin year but within just two facial sessions she's helped balance my skin out a lot. I especially love the product line she uses and recommends. My skin doesn't feel dried out or irritated, it's more naturally balanced. If you are into a holistic, mind and body approach to your skin care and wellness definitely make a visit to see Claudia!!”

– Carmen M., Yelp review

“When I moved to NYC one of my goals was the find the perfect person to regularly see for skincare and facials. Fast forward countless facials and I think I finally found that person! All throughout the facial, Claudia talks to you about your skin history and your overall wellness in order to figure out the best treatment and beauty regimen. Aside from my skin looking amazing, I was completely relaxed. 

I can't wait to go back this month for another clarity facial!”

– Mary A., Yelp review

Virtual Testimonials

I just had to reach out to tell you how refreshing it was to speak with you about skincare and wellness. I'm so glad I scheduled this virtual product consultation/appointment with you as I learned so much from your wealth of information. Thank you for being so sincere, helpful and encouraging as I navigate through the aging process and make better choices involving my health.

It truly was a pleasure talking to you! I hope to connect in a month for another zoom appointment, I would love to learn more from you.

— Flo M. (Wexford, PA)

I heard about Claudia on social media during the lockdown in early 2020 in an online article. I looked her up and I was impressed with her social media presence and demonstration videos of the products that she offered. I'm located in the Midwest so I booked an online consultation with her. I was looking for help finding a product line that fit my skin concerns with the help and guidance of a professional. I found that in Claudia. During my consultation, she fully assessed my skin and addressed my skin concerns and gave advice on how to best care for my skin. I was interested in the Faith Lamellar line of products, that I had seen her demonstrate, and she helped me pick a regimen and gave me directions on use. It was a great and really fun experience to have an online consultation with her. She puts you at ease immediately and provides excellent and thorough advice. She also answers any follow up questions and concerns after. I hope to someday have a facial in person by Claudia. But in the meantime, I highly recommend to anyone looking to book an online consultation to book one with Claudia. You will enjoy it!

— Cristina G. Age 51 Nurse (Decatur, IL)

I started working with Claudia during the mandated quarantine. I wasn't sure what to expect from a virtual consultation, but was so pleasantly surprised. Claudia is warm and friendly, knowledgeable (she has the most beautiful skin to prove it!), and extremely thoughtful. She took the time to really listen and get to know me, my skin history, my goals for the future. She reviewed my regimen in holistic detail, including considerations for diet and other lifestyle factors, and provided me with a recommended course of action to implement the change I wanted without immediately overwhelming my skin with too many or too harsh of products. I felt myself in very safe hands. I have been following the regimen she recommended for a few months now and have already seen major improvements in my skin. I highly recommend the virtual consultations and can't wait to take advantage of her in-person services in the future.

— Elena D. Age 31 CFO ( New York, NY )

Thank you Instagram for leading me to this amazing woman! I didn’t know what to expect from a virtual service but I am so pleased. Claudia, you are gifted and your energy is positive and sincere. I’m feeling renewed and inspired about life again. Your advice and product recommendations have made such a difference in a matter of weeks. I love my new skincare regimen. I’m happy looking in the mirror now because of the changes I made, especially to my diet, which have had a profound effect on my skin and body.
