Beauty Republic

Hands down the best facial I ever had! Marissa made me feel so welcomed and relaxed on my birthday. I also loved how professional she was. Before we started, she asked what my facial goals were and she remembered from my notes that I asked about derma-planing and I got so excited so I was really happy that we focused on that. She also gave the best head, face, and shoulder massage! I will always come back and this will be my go- to spot for facials (: Thank you Marissa!

Beauty Republic has moved locations and changed their structure since previous review, so a review update is in order!Beauty Republic is now located at the address reflected on their business page here on Yelp. The studio is actually located on a residential property, but it is NOT inside the main house. They make sure to provide you with instructions via text message the day of your appointment, which is very helpful. The studio is now officially a team of two, lead by founder Marissa Duarte and her sister in law Vanessa. The services no longer include nails services. Their focus is entirely on skincare. Vanessa does offer waxing and lash lift/tinting services though! So, if you are looking for a place that is entirely dedicated to facials of various kinds with a holistic approach, this is it! And it's LOVELY. The studio is cozy and super well appointed. I was super relaxed the entire time. I went in for a facial that included gua sha with Vanessa. Vanessa is incredibly sweet and fun to talk to before and after your session. She keeps the session chat free so that you can indulge in all the relaxation possible and I loved it! Another nice aspect to their business is that it is a gratuity free zone, meaning that the pricing on their website is what you pay for and that's it. So you can think of it as the gratuity is included. I've never experienced that before and I must say it's a really nice way to enjoy a treatment. After my facial, Vanessa was gracious with her time and gave me some tips on how to use my gua sha stone at home. Her energy is wonderful and both she and Marissa seem to be super dedicated to continuing their education and developing all the skills they need to be the best! I will definitely we returning again for another facial and plan on booking one for my husband as well.

My appointment at another salon was cancelled on short notice so I called here based on Yelp reviews and they worked me in for the same day. The facial was reasonably priced and very enjoyable. Brittany talked to me for a few minutes before we started and talked about her plan for my treatment and all of the products she planned to use. The facial was very relaxing and my skin looks and feels much better. Brittany doesn't leave while the mask does its work, she stays and gives a nice shoulder and arm massage. I will definitely be back.

Meet your new favorite spa, convenient location, beautiful atmosphere, and incredible staff. The second you walk in, you are met with a smiling friendly face, soothing music, and a lovely front room. Pour yourself a cup of tea, and enjoy the lovely window art of Marcy Ellis.I love shopping their front selection of beauty products, and have now tried a couple different services (but coming back for more soon!). Recently, I went in to try a wax and eyebrow tint with Vanessa. She is absolutely lovely, and did a fantastic job of grooming my brows to my specifications. The following week I made an appointment with Brittney to try sugaring. Per their website, sugaring is "Body sugaring is an ancient Egyptian method of hair removal using a 100% natural paste of sugar, lemon and water. No resins, No chemicals, no dyes. It's is water soluble, will never adhere to live skin cells, and will not burn skin as it's applied at room temperature and, removes hair in direction of natural growth". Definitely a much more pleasant experience than waxing, and the process afterwards has been a breeze. No healing period, or irritation, and slow re-growth. I can't wait to come back and update my review! What do I want to try next? The "Ultimate Sculpting Facial Massage" which involves cupping of the face for lymphatic drainage, and the "Fan Favorite, Microneedling" to help my skin with aging and smooth fine lines.

I absolutely love spending time at Beauty Republic. The space is beautiful and everyone who works here is fantastic at what they do and great with client service. Every service feels like a luxury, even a bikini wax. I go here for waxing, sugaring, tweezing and facials. I love that they offer unique takes on these services, like sugaring as an alternative to waxing (sugaring doesn't stick to the skin as much as wax so it can be better for sensitive skin in certain areas), and fancy and sumptuous facials that include cupping/buccal massage/effective devices like LED lights and microneedles. With all these options, you might expect to be paralyzed with indecision but Paula, Brittney and Marissa all know how to discern exactly what you need.

After years of trying to find a place for my wife to go that worked with our schedule, we were referred to Brittany here. As a bday present to my wife, i called and scheduled a 90 min facial. My wife called me afterwards and said it was the best and most relaxing experience she's had in tucson. Since then shes had 3 more treatments, all with Brittany, and she has been more than satisfied. Gentlemen if youre looking for a great present for your wife, this is it! Thanks again beauty republic, you run a great small businessDavid

Vanessa is just awesome very detailed oriented and personable. Her price point is reasonable and she makes you feel right at home! Highly recommend

I know nothing about beauty except that it can be expensive. I had been wanting to try a lash lift after watching a bunch of my girlfriends get into lash extensions and finally went for it because yelp had a $5 off coupon (and I was honestly looking for any excuse to try it). On my way to the salon I stopped at the pharmacy to pick up a prescription and I heard the women in front of me ask the pharmacist what to do because her eyes were inflamed and in pain from a lash job she just got. I instantly got nervous. I shared this with my lash artist, Vanessa, who put all of my worries at ease without any kind of sales pressure. I went forward with the lash lift and was surprised at how intense the results were. The process felt fast even though we were there for an hour and I felt comfortable the whole time. Not sure if I would do it again just because it still feels too pricey for my grungy self, but I would 100% recommend it for those hesitant for their first time!

Made an appointment for my mom and she called me nearly to tears because it's been years since she's felt so relaxed and rejuvenated. She got her facial massage from Marissa and was very happy. Thank you so much

During my visits to see Marissa at BR, I completely shut down. I know that that tike is for me and me alone and I have never felt so pampered. I let her customize my facials all on her own, and I genuinely feel her sending love to me through her hands. I wish I could spend a day there. The space itself is very charming, and the treatment room is bright and airy and like a visual breath of fresh air. I will go there for as long as Marissa and Vanessa are in practice.
