Full, defined but still natural-looking eyebrows are the most requested type of brow in my skincare studio. I think a slightly thicker, naturally shaped brow fits everyone’s facial shape really well and helps highlight beautiful facial features!

My skincare studio has moved from the Halsted location in River West to a studio space in Wicker Park. I was so sentimental about the Halsted location because it was scrub me™ skin care studio’s first home, I took some time to say my proper goodbyes before I moved on. What makes me so excited about the new space is that I’m sure you’re all going to absolutely love it! scrub me™ skin care studio is moving into a space with newly constructed salon suites; construction wrapped up in late May so the studio is going to be totally brand new.
