How to Choose a Facial in Washington Heights and Inwood
Compare custom, hydrating, exfoliating, and specialty facials by what happens during the appointment and what you want from it.
Start with what you want from the appointment
Choosing a facial is easier when you begin with a preference, not a promise. You may want a first visit with a consultation, a moisture-focused service, an exfoliating treatment, or a facial tailored around your complexion. Tomy Rivero Beauty offers facial services at its Washington Heights Beauty Lab and Inwood Beauty Cafe.
The service names describe different approaches. They are a useful way to narrow the menu, then a conversation with the provider can help you decide what fits your needs and comfort level.
Custom facials and a first visit
The TRB Custom Facial | First Time Client begins with a personalized consultation, followed by a facial tailored to your skin using Eminence Organics. It is a clear starting point if you are new to the studio or would like to discuss your preferences before choosing a more specific service.
The TRB Custom Facial is the menu’s signature custom option. Its description includes cleansing, exfoliation, and targeted hydration with products selected for your complexion. Both custom options leave room to talk through what you want from the appointment.
Hydration, exfoliation, and the Insta-Glow facial
The Super Food Hydrating Facial is centered on moisture-focused care and SuperFood products. Insta-Glow combines dermaplaning with a Hydrojelly mask. If you are interested in either service, ask the provider what to expect and whether its steps suit your preferences.
The Microdermabrasion Facial is described as controlled exfoliation to smooth the skin’s surface and refine the look of uneven texture. Skin Reset is a broader restorative facial with enhanced exfoliation and targeted treatments. The menu also includes Age-Less, with advanced exfoliation and hydration, and Men’s Skin Recovery, which addresses concerns such as dryness and post-shave irritation in its service description.
A simple way to narrow your options
Use the menu descriptions to identify the kind of appointment you want, then ask questions before booking if you are unsure. You do not need to diagnose your skin or choose based on a dramatic result claim.
Want a consultation on your first visit? Compare the first-time TRB Custom Facial with the regular custom facial.
Prefer moisture-focused care? Read the Super Food Hydrating Facial description.
Interested in dermaplaning with a mask? Ask about Insta-Glow.

Choose with clear expectations
A facial menu can help you describe what you are looking for, but it cannot replace an individual conversation about your skin and comfort. Share your preferences and ask what each service includes before your appointment.
