Orange Blossom Skin Care

Elizabeth is fantastic. I am so glad I found her. She really takes the time to learn your skin and never makes you feel rushed. \r Her services are very reasonably priced. \r And her products are wonderful! \r A+ Pros: Best facials in town Cons: Absolutely NONE more

Orange Blossom was absolutely the best part of my holiday season. I was frazzeled and exhausted from running around and was not ready to relax when I decided to make my appointment in preparation for the holiday celebrations. I was greeted warmly when I arrived and offered hot tea . The ginger peach oolong was fantastic! The boutique was very cute and had plenty of options- everything from organic cleansers to premium mineral makeup. I was brought into the lovely treatment room and given a warm, soft facial gown to change into. The table was heated and the room smelled like peppermint and rosemary from the essential oils on the steamed towels she used on me. The facial was ultra relaxing and made an immediate improvement in my skin. My husband and kids even mentioned how refreshed and healthy my skin looked afterward! The body wrap started with a dry exfoliation, then a mini-massage with organic oils. I chose the new Organic Mimosa Champagn wrap to soften my skin. The foot and scalp massage were amazing and I couldn't believe it when the 2 hours were over! I went home and had the best nights sleep I can remember. I will absolutely be going back, especially for the enzyme facial - which included an amazing neck and shoulder massage as well. It's so nice that something so relaxing can make you look so much younger! Pros: excelent value, knowledgeable esthetician, organic products, personalized service, attentive staff, beautiful treatment room, great location Cons: no deep tissue massage offered more

Elizabeth truly did a great job with my eyebrows. I am very particular and she did them perfect. Highly recommend. I am also going to return to have a facial. She has great products! Pros: Location, Parking, Ambience, Customer Service, Professional, CLEAN more

I received a gift certificate to Orange Blossom for Mother's Day. I did not realize how lucky I was until I finally went in for my treatments! I was greeted with ice cold jasmine green tea and was allowed to relax for a few minutes before my treatment. The shop is cute and homey. Fun to look through all the skin care, body lotions, candles, and apparel. The massage was great. The bed was heated but the room was cool and the lights dimmed. The flowers and candle in the room made the place smell wonderful - nice and fresh but not perfumey at all. The facial was incredibly relaxing and my skin looked fresh, clean, and my wrinkles had actually relaxed! I purchased a moisturizer and sunscreen and I love them both. I did not feel pressured and the aesthetican (Elizabeth) even gave me her personal email address and phone number so that I could ask questions any time I needed. She went through each product in detail so I know what each is for and why it is good for my skin type. I was impressed by the personal attention. I could not have been more pleased with my experience and I can't wait to go back! more

I am getting microdermabrasion at Orange Blossom Skin Care and I have been amazed by the results. I had been receiving treatments at a local dermatologists office about a year ago (for big bucks!) but had discontinued my sessions due to lack of results after many sessions. I decided to try it again at Orange Blossom since they were having an introductory promotion. I have been amazed after only 4 sessions. My skin is smoother, my fine lines less noticeable, and I have a rosy glow. My esthetician, (Elizabeth?), combined this treatment with an organic facial. I left with super smooth skin - just a little pink - but no peeling. I like that I can do this on my lunch break and get back to work without any down time. They must have a great machine because I had 12 treatments at the dermatologists (over a year ago) and I did not see nearly the same results. The mini-facial is great to add on to get a little r&r while still 'on-the-go'. As a working mother of 3- I appreciate that. My esthetician also had a great, relaxing touch - not the 'in and out' feel of the doctor's office. The price is great too. I've seen this treatment at other spas for $145 per session - about twice the price! Two thumbs up!! Pros: Great results, very relaxing more

You won't be disappointed with Elizabeth at Orange Blossom. Wow! My lashes have never looked better and I have been tinting them for years. She is an expert in brow shaping as well. I just moved from LA and have had facials, brow waxing, you name it - I've had it - at some of the best spas in LA. I have never received such amazing customer service until I came here. They were kind and helpful during the entire booking process. The facial was extremely informative (she will answer all of your questions), relaxing, purifying, and revitalizing. She will give you extractions if you need them but she is very gentle and only does what is necessary. I loved the organic hour custom facial and I added the AHA and Paprika peel add-on (worth it!). I can't wait to go again. If you want personalized service, the best skin care, best organic products, AND results call Elizabeth. You won't be disappointed! more

I couldn't agree more with the reviews on here. Elizabeth is at the top of her game. I was so relaxed that I actually snored! The lash tinting and brow shaping were new to me and they have made my eyes pop and I do not have to wear mascara anymore. This is wonderful for those of us with Austin allergies - no more runny mascara or irritating waterproof mascara. She expertly shaped my brows and really took her time to analyze what needed to be done. Well worth every penny! She carefully tweezes any stray hair so the shaping is lasting a long time. The facials are always a treat. I enjoy them more than massages since she massages half my body during the facial anyway (the 90 min Self Renewal facial is the best) and I get my skin detoxified and looking great. She is also a licensed massage therapist so I think that helps with the relaxation aspect of her facials. I love Orange Blossom and I always get personalized attention and they call me back immediately if I can not get through on their appointment line : make sure to leave a message and you won't need to call back - they will call you. My last spa would never call me back and it was frustrating. Not a problem here!\r Keep it up! Pros: great technician, personal attention, no chemicals in facial products Cons: not open on Sundays more

Elizabeth rocks. The Eminence products she uses are top of the line effective organic products. Her experience with her hands in both gentle facials, waxing, and massages are the best in town. I am so impressed I have been going back monthly to get my eyebrows waxed, to get her paprika facial, and have been switching over to Eminence products, due to no pressure from her at all. I don't know what I would do without my monthly visits to Elizabeth!!!! Try her facial - you won't be disappointed! Pros: Quiet setting on a no thru street in downtown Austin, easy to access, and parking is always easy, awesome products, awesome skill in services provided more

I had the best facial on Wed. at Orange Blossom Skin Care. I was completely stressed out from work and made an impromptu stop on my way home and was lucky to sneak into a space that had just opened up. My esthetician (Elizabeth) greeted me and let me decompress for a few minutes before beginning the treatment. I came in for a deep cleansing facial since I've been breaking out and expected it to be painful. I was thrilled to find that my skin was rosy, vibrant, and the knots in my shoulders were finally relaxing due to the fantastic neck and shoulder massage (she is a massage therapist as well so you get the benefit of that along with the facial!). I have sensitive skin so I usually look like a wreck after extractions but she was very gentle and made sure to sooth my skin as well. I made my next appointment so that I do not have to rely on luck to get an appointment next time! \r \r On another note, even though it is downtown- the space is very intimate and the area is very quiet. This was truly a treat! Pros: relaxing atmosphere, pleasant and knowledgable staff, and I received a free eye treatment Cons: can not accomodate large parties more

I love this place! I received a facial and a back treatment. Both were top notch. The owner even stayed after hours on a Friday night to fit me in. They treat you like a member of their family rather than just another number. City Search has the wrong Zip Code though - it's 78701 not 78731 so the map is wrong as well. They are located off of W.3rd St. - about 2 blocks from the Whole Foods at 5th and Lamar. \r Pros: flexible hours, most comfortable facial table I've ever been on Cons: City Search Map was wrong - no fault of the spa more

I was weary of going to a ""spa"" but my wife insisted that my skin needed a bit of help. As usual, she was right. Elizabeth was great. I felt completely comfortable and she was very skilled. I did not realize how congested my skin was but now it is clean and clear. I think she could tell that I was unaccustomed to this sort of thing so she explained the procedures beforehand (very helpful). I had the Organic Deep Cleansing Facial and I would recommend that for anyone who needs serious skin care. I was surprised at how relaxing it was even though I typically do not get spa services. I will absolutely go back and even recommend it to our friends. Pros: Great facialist and location more

Orange Blossoms has the best facials in Austin. Elizabeth was fabulous. I've had facials at various spas around town, with painful extractions that leave my face puffy and spotted for several hours. At Orange Blossoms I had the ""Facial for Self Renewal"" and Elizabeth's extractions were so much gentler than other spas and I left with glowing, beautiful skin. I would definitely recommend her services to others. more

I had the Yam and Pumkin peel series at Orange Blossom. I am very happy with my results. I had sun spots on my cheeks, nose, and forehead and they are now gone. I was amazed that such results could be achieved through an organic peel! My skin is smoother than it was in college! My aesthetician, Elizabeth, was very skilled and educated me on caring for my skin before and after the peels. I was never rushed at all. The facial with the peel was very relaxing . I recommend getting the celophane facial wrap add-on which is very luxurious. It really soothed and hydrated my skin -especially after the fantastic facial massage. I am now a loyal guest of Orange Blossom! more

I just finished my pre-wedding beautification at Orange Blossom and I could not have been more pleased or felt more pampered. I usually get facials for maintanence but this facial was far superior to any other I have had. Elizabeth used a multitude of different massage techniques to relax my fine lines but also to relax a frazzled bride! The extractions were thorough but relatively painless which is amazing since I have a low tolerance for pain. I had the 90 min facial for Self Renewal with the AHA add-on, a lash tint, brow shaping , and the organic lip treatment. All were wonderful. My lashes are naturally blonde but now are jet black and you can see every individual hair, terrific! My brows look sleek and well shaped but still lush and my chapped, dry lips are completely moisturized and flake free. I'm getting married in a week but I had to take the time to write about my experience since she did such an amazing job and never once rushed me. I left with vibrant skin, relaxed shoulders, and a spring in my step. Perfect for the pre-wedding hustle and bustle.\r \r Thank you Elizabeth and Orange Blossom for making this time a little less stressful!\r On a side note, she uses amazing products- they really are some of the best that I've seen. They did their research when choosing that! Ask if you want to customize something, they are very accomodating to requests and are willing to help if possible. The price was also extremely reasonable for the quality of work, quality of products, and the time spent on the extra touches. Don't be fooled by the places that offer cheap facials - I've learned you get what you pay for at spas and Orange Blossom gives you so much more! Pros: skill, relaxing environment, best esthetician in Austin, I didn't want to leave! more

I found her! Elizabeth Hoeber is now located at Orange Blossom Skin Care (inside Avalon Wellness Center). She gives the best facial I've ever had. I've been with her for about a year and will never go to anyone else. She is incredibly thorough with her facials (and waxing) and she gives the BEST facial and foot massage. She only uses the best products ( she's using Eminence Organic skin care now) and I always leave feeling like a new person. Orange Blossom is an urban paradise. It's super calming and the Elizabeth always takes the extra time to answer any questions (even when I call her after my appointments). I have already scheduled my next facial with Elizabeth and I can't wait! Pros: amazing technique, soothing/gentle touch, great monthly specials more

I went to Orange Blossom Skin Care which is located in Avalon Wellness Center. The aesthetician, Elizabeth, couldn't have been more professional and helpful. I had been having horrible adult acne breakouts (annoying hormones!) and now my skin is almost completely break out free! Her facials are always phenomenal and they always fix whatever is going on with my skin. I've been going to Elizabeth for about 8 months and she always does such a great job. Her treatment room is beautiful, cozy, and not at all intimidating. She really took the time to educate me on what is going on with my skin. She also showed me product options from her certified organic skin care line. I have fallen in love with every product. She wasn't pushy at all - I love the way she educates me and then lets me make my own decision without any sales pressure. I've been to many many spas and this is the last aesthetician that I will ever go to. I've been spoiled! She also does my brows and lip waxing and she never misses a hair. Go to Elizabeth and you'll see the difference. Pros: perfect brow shaping, lip wax, and facials more

I've been to many dermatologists and estheticians for my adult acne. No one has ever been able make a difference in my skin until I came to see Elizabeth at Orange Blossom. I've been on differin and retin A and countless other medications but now I'm hooked on her acne facials. I always get the customized facials which she alters to fit my skin. My skin feels completely renewed after each treatment and I'm getting so many compliments on the changes everyone notices. I finally have my confidence back! I even tried the home care products she suggested and I can tell the difference in the quality of the products and the difference seen in my skin tone and texture. She also gives the gentlest and most effective extractions I've ever had and I've had plenty! I never leave swollen or red like I did from other places. \r \r I'm so happy to finally feel confident again. Thank you!! Pros: effective facials, great skin care education, beautiful atmosphere, caring esthetician more

I would definitely recommend Orange Blossom Skincare to all of my friends and family! The environment is very very warm and friendly. To add to that, Elizabeth is just the best! Her pleasant attitude and knowledge of skincare makes this the best spa ever!\r \r more

I fly all over the world on business and the only ""me-time"" I get is when I go to the spa. Elizabeth at Orange Blossom Skin Care puts every other spa to shame. I've been to spas in NYC, LA, London, Sydney, you name it - and their services don't remotely compare to Elizabeth's facials and treatments. I usually get a 60 or 90 minute facial and she always knows what to do to make me and my skin feel like a million-bucks. She changes it up a bit each time so I'm always excited to see if I get a foot massage or scalp massage or a pressure point massage- they are all amazingly soothing and relaxing. I have been to dozens of aestheticians and I can tell you first hand that her facials are the best value that I've seen. She does more massage (great quality of touch) than any other aesthetician I've been to and she never leaves the room (I've had facials where the aesthetician left me for 10 minutes at a time). The airplane air completely dehydrates my skin but you would never be able to tell after I have my facial! I always recommend the AHA-Paprika peel with the facial- It leaves my skin radiant and never red or flaky. If I don't know what to get, Elizabeth can always take a look at my skin and determines what I need. She's never been wrong! \r \r Besides the facials I also love her brow shaping (amazing work), lash tinting - I don't even own mascara anymore, and the body wrap- leaves my skin super soft and she can even work it into a facial session so I can get two treatments when I'm pressed for time. She even works me in after work and on weekends - she's so helpful.\r \r You can't go wrong with Elizabeth. She's a sweetheart and truly knows her stuff ! Pros: Great value, beautiful spa, cozy treatment room, Best Aesthetician in Austin more

I was thrilled with the prompt service at Orange Blossom Skin Care. I sent an email to Elizabeth and she responded immediately with answers to all of my questions. I tried the Detox body wrap with the Organic Deep Cleansing facial and I loved it! She first gave me a dry exfoliation to increase my circulation, exfoliate my skin and to get my lymphatic system going. It was very invigorating. After, she massaged a detox essential oil mixture onto my body and wrapped me up in a coccoon with hot towels and many blankets. While the oils were pentetrating she performed the facial. My skin was glowing when I left! It was fantastic! My skin felt super soft from head to toe. The entire experience was extremely relaxing and my skin felt clean and completely moisturized. I'm going back for sure! more
