Do yourself a favor...

by Melaniessss at Citysearch

...and go see Gail!!!! I decided to go to her after reading a small blurb about her services in Time Out New York magazine. I am so glad I did - after struggling with mild/moderate acne for several years, seeing dermatologists, trying literally everything I could - Gail's facials have completely changed my skin for the better. I get a (very affordable) Acne Facial, which is a salicylic peel followed by extractions and the use of a high-frequency machine to get rid of bacteria and promote healing. She offers other services though (specializes in peels) and also has her own line of effective products which are wonderful, even for people with sensitive skin like myself. Going to do this once a month has brought my skin to a place that a year ago, I could not have imagined, and every time I go, it gets even better. This is the one place I have been to get a facial where you can go home with your face actually looking NICE, not like someone just took a scalpel to it!

Everything about GKAY is great - the services, the products, the results you will see (because you will see them) and also, Gail herself...she is such a sweetheart and so kind to people who have skin issues that might be a bit of a sore subject for them to talk about! She believes in eating healthy, drinking plenty of water and taking care of yourself over super harsh treatments. She is truly concerned with the happiness of her clients and will take the time to get to know you, your skin and your personal issues.

CHECK HER OUT!!!!

New York's Best Kept Secret for Great Skin

by rolfie at Citysearch

I decided to try Gkay after a recommendation from a friend and I am so very glad I did. I have struggled with acne since my teenage years and after seeing Gail for two months I now feel comfortable not wearing makeup (that is absolutely huge for me)! She does a great job of giving you and your skin individual attention. She gave me great advice on little changes to make in my daily routine that would make a huge difference in my overall skin health. Plus she has her own line of skincare products which are absolutely amazing. Her services are also highly affordable.

• Pros: Great individualized attention
• Cons: Nothing at all

Amazing Daily Facial Products

by kddoxey at Citysearch

I'm a divorce mom of a 3 year old son. I work from home. It's been easy for me to sit in the confines of my home and sulk and not take care of myself for no one but my son sees me. I didn't know how to feel good about myself anymore. Then I tried some products recommended by Gail, the GKay esthetician. The products were simple to use and forced me into a daily routine. I now wash my face each night with the cleanser provided, tone with the amazing aloe toner and then use the incredible night treatment that after only a few days helped diminish the fine lines that were around my eyes. In the morning, I use the enzyme scrub to exfoliate my skin. I instantly noticed the difference in my skin making me feel younger and optimistic again. After a week, I was feeling so much better about my appearance that I was encouraged to begin running again as I used to and to eat healthier. I'm so happy with the results of the skincare products I got from GKay and how they have greatly improved the appearance of my skin and gave me the push I needed to improve other areas of my life.

• Pros: Amazing products shipped directly to my door.

Caring skin care professional

by candc07 at Citysearch

I have oily skin and lately developed cystic acne.

Looking through the site, i decided to try Gkay. Gail is warm and caring, and I felt comfortable as soon as i arrived. She gives one on one care, and you get undivided attention. After reviewing my lifestyle choices, she gave me advice on how to adjust it, in order to have better skin. I've been going for a month so far, and i got 2 acne peels. My skin was breaking out pretty bad, and now i can see it getting better and better. By the way, i'm a dark skinned, so I can say that Gail knows skin, whatever the type. I recommend highly this place.

• Pros: affordable, excellent customer service
• Cons: none so far

Best Solution to Acne and Aging

by evanssd1 at Citysearch

I recently ordered the mini extractions kit and the high frequency machine and they were both worth every penny. I had tried everything to clear up my skin and NOTHING was working. It was dry, irritated, and broken out. As soon as I received my order from Gkay I followed the directions and gave myself a facial. My face looked and felt better that night. The next day I was well on my way to clear, balanced skin. I'm 36 and was desparately trying to address aging and acne. I have finally found the answer.

• Pros: Great products, great knowledge, great results
• Cons: none
