I found Natural Skin Creations through a friend in Yoga class, and I am SO glad I did!! The staff here is Great & so helpful. When I initially called, I had a million questions, and Heather was very helpful in being patient with me. I have been breaking out in the past 6 months, and could not figure out why. Heather asked a simple question, if I had washed my face when I was done working out (or for me doing Yoga), and to my surprise, I was not, & THAT was what was causing so much congestion! Of course, I booked a DermaGlow Facial that was suggested by Heather. When I arrived, I was pleased to see how 'zen' it was; a cute little house nestled in the heart of Montrose! Quiet & a perfect relaxing get-a-way! I only had to wait 5 minutes (which is WAY better than most Spas around town)! Marbella did my Facial, and it was FABULOUS! She is very thorough and she is perfect at easing your mind! She and the staff are GREAT and I will keep returning every 3 weeks. I have been back 3 times now, and within the first 2 Facials, my face cleaned right up, with the advice of Heather too. I wash my face before I leave Yoga, and in about 3 weeks, my face cleaned right up! These ladies are a God sent & you have got to try this Spa out! You will NOT be disappointed! Peace & Yogi Love!
Pros: VERY addicting! Friendly Staff & a wonderful Facial
Cons: Not a thing!

I tried this place out based on Citysearch reviews, and I cannot understand the rave reviews. First, my appointment started about 20 minutes late because the steam machine wasn't working. After the facialist Marbella was ready, I was taken out back to this slightly cave-like room with some seriously weird music playing. The music was so strange that the lyrics actually distracted me for most of my treatment. The steam treatment was a disaster. It didn't quite reach my face and when it did it smelled like dirty feet. The facialist actually left the room for part of the steam treatment which I found very unprofessional. The bed was horribly uncomfortable, and I felt like I might fall off of it at any moment. The extractions were painful and the results were not that impressive -especially, in light of the fact that the facialist kept telling me how good she was! Whenever I tried to make a comment or ask a question about the facial, she dismissed me and told me that she knew what she was doing. Needless to say, I do not have any plans to return.

I did my online research and tried out Natural Skin Creations because of all the great reviews here. I have oily skin and my pores were craving a purge of all impurities. I got the Revive Facial and I'm sad to say I didn't like it. :( Miss Kat and her staff were very sweet, but after the facial my face felt very tight, raw and remained red for several days. Interestingly, she used two Q Tips for the extractions, while this may be more sanitary it also HURT like cuh-razy and wasn't thorough--I still had some visible congestion. The extractions left dark, scar-like spots for several weeks and I broke out even more after that experience.

From the initial phone conversation to set the appointment I was incredibly impressed. I had called several spas around town only to be swiftly and rudely dismissed with "we're booked". Though this spa was booked as well for the day I wanted, the receptionist, Heather thoughtfully asked if something else would work for me. Her very friendly and professional nature convinced me in an instant to look at my schedule again. She also took the time to listen to my particular reasons for seeking a facial treatment and made a helpful recommendation to get me through the next few days until my appointment. Today, I was enthusiastically greeted by the owner Kat, and Marbella, who did my facial. I got the Renewal and was amazed with the level of care that Marbella took in treating my skin. Her personality is fun and professional, always willing to answer any questions and offer suggestions to maximize the effectiveness of the treatment. She is also very meticulous and takes great pride in doing the facial to perfection! It's wonderful to meet people who love what they do, as it shows in the level of service provided, and I believe that these ladies truly enjoy what they do. When my facial was finished, both Kat and Marbella took extra time to share some very helpful tips with me to maximize the results. I look forward to seeing my skin clear and shine with renewed health over the next few days. And I look forward to my next visit at Natural Skin Creations! I walked away feeling pampered, cared for and appreciated. It was a fantastic experience and I highly recommend them!
Pros: Superb services and good prices
Cons: Might be addictive ;^)

I started going there over the past several months and have had a couple of different treatments all from Maribella. It's like your favorite bar because everyone knows your name and the "drinks" aka treatments are just what you need. The quality of the service is just as good as any of the high-priced pretentious salons around town, but it is way more relaxed especially since you don't feel like you're being judged when you walk in. It's also casual but very clean. Marbella listens to what your concerns are and what you need, and then responds accordingly. She is also very professional but fun at the same time. She makes sure she does a good job and doesn't hurry through so she can squeeze another client in. Overall, I have had many different spa expereiences around the city of Houston, but this place is definitely my favorite.
Pros: The service and atmosphere!
Cons: Can't think of any!

After relocating to Houston I was stress and wanted to treat myself to something. Not having a facial in a while I thought why not - the weather in Houston can be so damaging to your skin. I began searching for a good place to get a facial in Houston and happened upon Natural Skin Creations (NSC). It was in my neighborhood and I was very impressed by the website (The real thing does not disappoint!!). Based upon some great reviews on CitySearch, I went out on a limb and made an appointment. I'm very particular about my skin. I have sensitive / dry skin. I got an aromatheraphy facial from Marbella and felt instantly renewed and refreshed. Marbella was very patient with me and my skin and I walked out of the spa with an illuminous glow. She removed all my dead skin without exerting wear and tear on my face. The cost of the aromatheraphy facial was quite affordable for the number of services provided. Marbella is also great with eyebrow and bikini waxing!!!! The prices for these services are also quite affordable compared to many spas or nail salons that offer these services. Before I moved to Houston, I swore by facials and other services at International Chain spa but I'm all about Marbella and Natural Skin Creations.

its been 3 years since my last visit to a dermatologist that's why right now i have this real bad acne. I went to NSC 2 weeks ago and i cant wait to go back again. Marbella did my facial and she really made me feel comfortable and made me feel at home. She gave me advices on how to avoid from getting a lot of acne. The staffs are very polite and are not pushy with their products, (But i still ended up buying it because i love the smell of their products (minty smell)- it's addicting) I've only been there once and i was so satisfied with everything (no complains at all). It is so far the best experience i had compared to other facial spa/ even dermatology clinics that i had tried before. Im going to continue my facials with Marbella until im acne free, (Im so excited for that, i got addicted with NSC) -KS
Pros: very relaxing and good customer service
Cons: cant think of any

Marbella did my first professional facial ever and I am hooked ! It was a splurge, but I consider it money well spent, and I am going back as often as I can. She is knowledgeable, respectful, and has a fun personality. The spa is gorgeous, all the staff are friendly, and the spa rooms are very relaxing. I floated away with a handful of advice, smelling great, and feeling as thrilled as if I'd bought a new pair of hot jeans. S M L
