Don’t Miss Georgia Louise

Or the facialist’s new uptown spot.

Georgia Louise

What do Linda Evangelista, Emma Stone, and Mario Testino have in common (besides magazine covers, of course)? They all get their glow on at facialist Georgia Louise’s glam new digs on Manhattan’s Upper West Side. “I wanted the space to be quiet, comfortable, and discreet, but I also wanted it to express my personality,” says Louise, who also needed enough room for a heated table and eight cutting-edge machines (including a new pore purifier called the Georgia Louise Jet). To that end, she enlisted the help of her friend and client Caroline Legrand, an interior designer, who tinted the walls nutmeg, added texture with cork wallpaper, and installed vintage furniture and art. “The decor had to match Georgia’s nurturing spirit and healing hands,” Legrand says. And what hands they are. Seventy-five minutes with Louise (including her transformative Lift & Sculpt Butterfly Stone Massage) and you’ll be ready for your own magazine cover.
