i What the quiz asks you
Five questions, about sixty seconds. It asks what your main skin goal is, hydration and glow, anti-ageing and firmness, acne scarring and texture, breakouts, brightening and even tone, or sensitivity and redness. It asks how your skin feels most days, how much experience you already have with facials, what you want most from a visit, and the kind of care you are drawn to. There is an "I'm not sure yet" answer on the questions where guessing would not help, and picking it does not disadvantage the result.
ii What you get at the end
A named starting point. The result tells you which treatment we would begin with, what it includes, what it costs, and what members pay. If your answers suggest that a proper look at your skin should come before any treatment, it says that instead. Skin Coaching is $50 and is available in studio or virtually. Nothing is booked automatically. You leave with information, and you decide what to do with it.
iii What if I don't know my skin type?
That's fine. The quiz never asks you to name a skin type. It asks how your skin behaves, which you already know. The quiz narrows the options, and a proper look at your skin in the studio settles it. To skip straight to that, book the Signature Facial ($135, 60 minutes), which includes the same assessment. If your question is about your routine, Skin Coaching is $50. Membership is there if you want to come regularly afterwards, and it is never required.
iv Should I book a facial or a targeted treatment?
A facial cleanses, exfoliates, hydrates and treats the skin surface. It suits most people who are starting out or maintaining their skin. A targeted treatment (microneedling, RF microneedling, a chemical peel or dermaplaning) works deeper and is chosen for a specific concern such as scarring, texture or firmness. If you are new to us, we usually begin with a facial, because it shows us how your skin responds before we suggest anything stronger.
v Is there a version for teens, or for specific concerns?
Yes. The Teen Facial is $75. It is gentle and focused on teaching good habits. For a specific goal, our specialty facials start at $155 and follow G.M. Collin protocols: Hydrolifting, Collagen 90 and Sea C brightening. The quiz will point you to one of these if your answers call for it.
vi Is the quiz really anonymous?
Yes. The quiz asks for no name, email or contact details, and you don't need an account. We see overall patterns, such as which goals come up most, and never an individual's answers. You can take it as many times as you like. Our privacy page explains what is and is not recorded.
