Violet Skin Boutique

Owner Violet Mkhitaryan, a former biochemist, is a regional pioneer in natural skin care—and her lineless skin is proof that a perfect complexion needn’t come from harsh additives. Royal jelly eye cream? A lifting face mask made with egg yolks? All of her treatment products are a revelation, and thankfully available to take home. Mkhitaryan is also an aromatherapy connoisseur, which only adds to your facial relaxation (all that shoulder and neck massage helps, too). The salon also offers body wraps and massages, as well as nearly painless hair removal thanks to a French butter wax made especially for sensitive skin.
