"Julia's Tincture "Love Your Face" is a gift; now instead of touching and adding to skin problems, I use a few drops beneath my mask or sunscreen. Inflammation begins healing almost immediately upon contact and I feel a sense of confidence with my skin that I've never felt before. THANK YOU so much, Julia."

—ELENA BROWER, owner, VIRAYOGA

"As a teenager and young woman I always had very low-maintainance, perfect skin. Then, just as I hit my stride out on my own, my skin changed completely. It became freakishly oily and of course it broke out, not surface breakouts -breakouts that hurt and therefore were hard to ignore. It changed my life too, I wanted to hide just as opportunity was knocking, and only because of my skin. Julia helped put my life into balance as well as my skin and it has once again become low-maintainance, perfect skin! Julia is a healer and a teacher, and she will help you. I truly do wish there was a Julia March in every city!

Julia works magic when it comes to skincare. Since I have been receiving treatments, my skin has become dramatically more radiant and clear. Her profound expertise and incredible healing touch make each session a powerful, transformative experience. She is the best skincare therapist I have ever worked with."

New York Magazine OnlineOne of the sparkling gems at the unassuming, slightly crunchy Soho Health & Wellness Center is Julia March Integral Skin Care, a one-room, one-woman operation established in 2002 that specializes in top-of-the-line facials. Here, the delightful Julia March employs a “whole person” approach to skincare, starting with an intensive sit-down consultation—assessing skin problems, medical conditions, diet, sleep habits, and stress level—to determine the best facial for each client. Believing that the skin reflects inner health, March integrates her Slovak grandmother’s traditional beauty secrets (masks of sour cream and fresh berries) with the latest skincare technology, and accents it all with her training in Vortex Healing, reiki, reflexology, and massage. Her most lavish treatment is the two-hour Alpha State Facial, which uses the Future-Tec system (comprised of laser, microcurrent, ultrasound, and vacuum) to exfoliate, plump fine lines, and stimulate collagen; massage and energy work is also incorporated to bring active brain waves to a resting (alpha) state. All treatments are finished with a hand, arm, neck, and shoulder massage and foot reflexology, leaving the body blissfully relaxed and recharged. With the assistance of her divine-smelling products—by Luzern, Anakiri, Environ, and Shira—and her package incentives, March makes it easy to get on track to healthy, glowing skin and physical well-being.

Teen Scene Magazine Online If you're into home remedies – like mixing yogurt, berries and honey to make a great facial mask – then you're in for a treat at Julia March Integral Skin Care. Julia is an absolute goddess when it comes to making your skin look fresh, young and totally amazing. Before beginning the facial, Julia sits down with you in her treatment room – a very nice, cozy room with burning candles and aromatherapy that puts you right at ease – and goes over everything under the sun involving your skin. She'll ask you everything from how many glasses of soda you drink a day to how often you work out to any health problems you might have, so that she can really customize the facial for you. And then comes the facial! With 9 facials to choose from, there's something for everyone. But the one to try is definitely the Splash Facial, which involves tons of different masks, scrubs and creams that clean up your skin in a heartbeat. After blasting galvanic current on your skin to open up the pores, she'll begin the extractions – which are surprisingly painless! To end this amazing treatment, Julia prepares a mix of sour cream, kiwi and berries to really make your skin radiant and glowing. Your skin will thank her!

 "Julia March uses energy work (Reiki and Vortex Healing®, among other techniques) in the Alpha State Facial ($325) to bring brain waves to resting frequencies (the alpha state). It complements the treatment's more clinical steps, like microdermabrasion and micro-current muscle lifting. Her goal: 'to treat the whole person'. Call it the mind-beauty connection."

Luxury Spa Finder, January-February 2005

 “Aesthetician Julia March's no-frills office is a far cry from her former swanky digs, where she charged close to $400 for a facial. But the new place suits her businesslike approach to skin care. Our session was a blur of fruity-smelling masks and nearly painless extractions. A week later, our blemishes were nonexistent. March really does mean business.”

Allure BEAUTY DIRECTORY, August 2003

 

"I definitely noticed how much clearer my complexion looked after the first visit, but I was thrilled that other people noticed as well. Julia was so informative during my facial, I've really learned the right way to look after my skin. Seeing her every five weeks and some quick home maintenance keeps everything looking clear and healthy."

—River Lloyd, Celebrity Hairstylist

"I highly recommend Julia March for facials and other skin care. I have “problem” skin so I have avoided facials in the past, for fear they would aggravate my skin. I was amazed at the results from one facial with Julia. Not only was the treatment relaxing- with soothing music, relaxing scents and foot massage- the results were remarkable. My skin was smooth, clear & blemish free. I felt wonderful. Julia was also very knowledgeable about skin care and offered some excellent suggestions for ongoing care of my skin. It was a healing experience for my whole body."

"Julia March is an exceptional skincare practitioner in that her practice integrates an holistic approach in combination with an extensive knowledge of health issues, the latest technology and gentle attention to each individual skin's requirements. I was impressed by her in-depth knowledge; she was able to answer my many questions with refreshing insight into issues about individually tailored skin care incorporating not only a "surface" approach but an holistic view of body and spirit. It is rare to find such a whole body view in the beauty industry where the practitioner is addressing both the external issues and related matters of body and spirit. Her broad knowledge in combination with her advanced techniques and her sensitive touch ensured that it was my best facial ever. My skin positively glowed. If i still lived in New York I would be visiting Julia as often as possible..."
