Merritt Knize Skincare at 2121, ste 3, East Cesar Chavez Street, Austin, Texas.

Merritt is my skin guru.

The cold season had left my face looking dull. As I walked into Merritt's luxurious and serene spa, I knew I was in the right hands. I had a facial cleansing, microdermabrasion, salicylic and retinol peel, lip mask, and massage. This was not only relaxing, but I could feel my face coming back to life again.

I left feeling like a billion bucks (adjusting for inflation). A few days later, after the rest of my dead skin cells had sloughed off, I saw it! My face was glowing like it hadn't been in months. It was just in time too, since I was leaving on a trip to see my boyfriend's extended family. I felt great and rejuvenated.

Thanks Merritt, for always treating me like a queen, for your love, and your radiance. Shine on!
