Keisha is the best!
“Keisha is the best! I came to Canada on vacation and Keisha traveled a long way to give me a refreshing makeover
I am so completely satisfied! My family is shocked. She was professional and down to earth at the same time. We had such a good time and she did me up perfectly. I would receive Keisha if you want a professional makeover, a good time, and a stylist that doesn’t mind travelling. I would add photos but I’m extremely private and shy away from social media”

Fleek Leeks is da bomb
“Fleek Leeks is da bomb. As a photographer, I’ve worked with a lot of makeup artists over the years and Keisha is definitely one of the best that I’ve worked with. She’s personable and easy to get along with and yes her work is precise and beautiful without looking overdone. She knows how to work with a wide range of skin tones, which is actually very rare to find. Basically if you want a great make-up job done, look no further.”

The Beauty Room, located in Liberty Village, is a beauty and skincare clinic founded in 2012 by Amanda Chui. Initially a small section within a hair salon, it has grown into a full-fledged beauty spa known for its personalised services.
Some of those services include advanced skincare facials, cosmetic injections, and eyelash lifts. They can even provide permanent makeup services to accentuate a client’s natural features.
You can enjoy all of these amazing services at cheaper prices once you sign up for their Beauty Club membership. A friend of mine pays a flat monthly fee as a member, and she tells me that it’s so worth it.
Overall, they’re a good choice. I just wish that they open their doors on Sundays and Mondays too.
Pros
- 12 years of experience
- Offers permanent makeups
- Has a membership program
- Special discounts for friend referrals
Cons
- Unavailable on Sundays and Mondays
- Inconsistent operating hours
Fantastic experience from beginning to end
“Fantastic experience from beginning to end. Jane was my lash technician and I absolutely love the classic result she was able to achieve for me. I love the Beauty Room. Everyone is so warm and welcoming. They also have the cutest little dog that wanders around and is a delight to see. I’d recommend going here for all your beauty needs. Thanks again for the fantastic experience. The space is spotless and the design is beautiful.”

Always have the best experience at the Beauty Room!
“Always have the best experience at the Beauty Room! Just got a little mommy makeover and feeling great!
Highly recommend Darby for service, she always kills it! My lash lift and tint and brow lam look amazing.
Just love nurse Tim! Super professional, patient and skilled when it comes to injections. Won’t be going anywhere else moving forward.
I’m recovering from surgery from my delivery and they made sure I was very comfortable.”

3. Clinique De Mode
Address: 211 Yonge St
Phone number: +1 416-551-3551
Business hours:
11:00 AM – 7:00 PM (MON-FRI)
10:00 AM – 6:00 PM (SAT)
10:00 AM – 5:00 PM (SUN)
If you’re looking for some top-quality products to enhance your skincare routine, come check out Clinique De Mode. With three locations across the city, they’re one of the few authorised retailers of SkinCeuticals, a skincare product line that was based on Dr. Sheldon Pinnell’s skin cancer research.
Aside from their SkinCeuticals products, I’m also impressed with the huge variety of services they offer, including hydrafacials, Botox, chemical peels, and microneedling. Most of these services are performed by Christina Moraitis, the clinic’s founder and a licensed medical esthetician with over 14 years of experience.
They offer free consultations to ensure they can formulate a skincare treatment that’s unique to each client.
However, I should inform you that they require visitors to provide them with their credit card details before any consultation may take place. As someone who takes data privacy seriously, I’m a bit disappointed.
Pros
- Founder has 14 years of experience
- Authorised retailer of SkinCeuticals
- Offers free consultations
- Three locations in Toronto
Cons
- Requires credit card details for a free consult
- Some rude staff
Incredibly convenient location and easy booking
“Incredibly convenient location and easy booking.
The individual I normally go to at another clinic is on a leave and has set the bar quite high. I booked with Natalie and was super friendly, professional, informative, and efficient.
Highly recommend.”
– Jessica Lynne, Google Reviews
The team always gives me an amazing experience
“I cannot recommend Clinique de mode enough! Every time I go in there, the team always gives me an amazing experience. I’ve had some skin concerns the last few times I’ve been and the estheticians are always happy to adjust the treatment based on my skin’s needs and provide helpful post care advice/product recommendations.”

Phone number: +1 647-360-6555
Business hours:
11:00 AM – 7:00 PM (TUES-THURS)
10:00 AM – 6:00 PM (FRI)
10:00 AM – 5:00 PM (SAT)
MD Skin Lab, located in King West Village, is a cosmetic clinic founded by Dr. Soreya Dhanji and Dr. Vishaal Govan. They offer a wide range of personalised, non-surgical skin care treatments, including injectables, laser treatments, microneedling, hair restoration, and medical Botox.
While there are a lot of things I can praise this clinic for, the biggest one for me is the rich variety of promotions they offer on a monthly basis. It’s even better since I discovered that they offer flexible financing options for clients with tight budgets.
It’s also great that they offer complimentary gift cards to new clients. That, combined with their free skin consultations, was enough to convince me to give them a try.
The only major concern I have with MD Skin Lab is their tendency to be fully booked quickly.
Pros
- Offers special deals every month
- Offers flexible financing options
- Complimentary gift cards to new clients
- Offers free skin consultations
Cons
- Tends to get fully booked quickly
- Unavailable on Sundays and Mondays
I am very happy with my results
“Highly recommend Dr. Robbie Bahniwal. She is extremely knowledgeable, professional, patient, and respectful of your goals. She listened to my needs and focused on educating me. I never once felt pressured. She was able to answer all my questions prior to treatment and walked me through my entire treatment process which was so comforting. Overall, my experience was great, and I am very happy with my results. I highly recommend MD Skin Lab. Five stars all around!”
– Pawan Sidhu, Google Reviews
Both the doctors are phenomenal and know what they are doing
“I highly recommend MD Skin Lab. Both the doctors are phenomenal and know what they are doing. I’ve had no hesitations since I started getting my treatments done from them, because they are always educating me through the process. And of course, I’m so happy with my results!
Some of the treatments I’ve done with them include dermal fillers, botox for my masseters / preventative botox and PRP for my hair (and I’ve seen so much growth)”

5. Skin6: The Beauty Clinic
Address: 802 Dundas St W 2nd Floor
Phone number: +1 416-362-6266
Business hours:
11:00 AM – 6:00 PM (MON)
10:00 AM – 7:00 PM (TUES-FRI)
11:00 AM – 5:00 PM (SAT)
Skin6: The Beauty Clinic is another reliable provider of personalised skin care and advanced treatments. It was founded by Jeremy Tebbutt, a skilled esthetician with over 15 years of experience.
This clinic offers a wide range of treatments, including HydraFacials, CoolSculpting, Emsculpt, and injectables. Moreover, they also provide Vitamindrip IV therapy, which can drastically enhance your skin health by delivering essential vitamins and nutrients straight into your bloodstream.
However, while I do find their advanced equipment and treatments to be quite impressive, the prices Skin6 asks for are a bit expensive for my taste. I was only convinced to try them out once I discovered that they offer special deals regularly.
Pros
- Founder has 15 years of experience
- Offers special deals regularly
- Has Vitamindrip IV therapy
- Two locations in Toronto
Cons
- Above-average prices
- Inconsistent operating hours
Everyone made me feel very comfortable and well attended
“I had initially booked a consultation and was quite nervous as I had no experience or knowledge regarding injectables or medical grade skin care. The owner and staff were so kind and welcoming; everyone made me feel very comfortable and well attended. I was recommended a treatment plan for my skin concerns and everything was very well explained. Camila and Vlada were both honest in their suggestions and very clear about the time it would take to achieve the desired outcomes. Booking appointments with them was also super easy. The clinic was also incredibly clean and well maintained. I will be recommending Skin6 to absolutely everyone!”
– Hannah Rolleman, Google Reviews

“HANDS down my favourite place in all of Toronto for beauty treatments. I’ve booked fillers, botox, facials, IV drips and so many more incredible services with this team. My personal go to is Nurse Liz and she always helps me feel my most snatched and fabulous self!
10/10 would recommend you book today!”
