Pamper yourself pretty at Toronto's The Beauty Room!


The Beauty Room Skin Care & Esthetics is tucked away inside the L Studio Salon in Toronto's Liberty Village and offers all the typical treatments necessary for self-beautifying including manis, pedis, waxing and facials by owner/operator Amanda Chui.

I'm a total facial whore so was excited to see that they offer a wide variety of facial treatments - not only is there an express and signature facial, but there's also a large selection of results oriented clinical, corrective facials for specific skin concerns including: Oxygen to decongest and brighten; Algomask to calm and hydrate; Hydro-Lifting to hydrate and lift; Sea C Spa to lighten sun spots and repair sun damage; Collagen to minimize fine lines and wrinkles; and Botinol to plump up deep expression lines. All using products from the G.M. Collin line
Amanda decided that I could use some decongesting and brightening so I went with the Oxygen Facial. I've had oxygen treatments before and I was expecting it would be done the same way, with that machine that blows (cold) oxygen into your face but with this facial, she actually used products that have oxygen infused in them which she feels is a better delivery method to get them into your skin. The facial involved the usual cleansing, masks and extractions as well as a light peel to really help get rid of the dead skin and brighten up the complexion.

By the end my skin looked clean and fresh and felt super smooth! Only thing I didn't love about the facial, she wore gloves the whole time even when doing the facial massage. Now I understand gloves for extractions, I don't want to be touching other people's blackhead ooze but a facial massage with latex gloves on is like sex with a condom, it just doesn't feel as good!

The Oxygen Facial lasts 75 minutes and costs $100 - or if you have one monthly you get a special price of $85 (all facials have a special monthly price).

  1. haha eww gloves! I've never heard of that - everywhere I go for a facial they just cover their fingers with a napkin for extractions

  2. Sorry about the gloves! But they prevent any bacteria on my hands from coming in contact with your face. Safety first! ;)
