This is the first review I have ever written on city search, but I decided I wanted to take the time to do this as I have never been so impressed by a beauty therapist in my life! \r \r I don't think I could explain how grateful and fortunate I was to have found ZINA at aphrodite skin care. \r I came from Australia to new york last year with terrible skin problems, I had tried everything and thought there was no way my skin could be fixed! \r Six months later MY skin is amazing and I am so happy!! this is no exxageration, i wish i could post before and after pictures of what zina has done for me. \r I am an actress and she has literally saved me skin and helped my career. \r Zina is by far the best aesthecian I have come across.. and trust me I must have been to about 20 different salons. \r \r her work is thorough, clean, meticulous and she is a complete perfectionist.. yes the facial is a bit painful but that is because she does a real deep extraction clean! not a stupid ""fake"" extraction like most untrained beauty therapists. \r \r she has also over time become very special to me and always been there for me to talk to. I moved to new york very young on my own and she has really been so good to me and helped me through everything.. what a wonderful day it was the day i walked into aphrodite skin care! \r \r zina is truly so passionate about what she does, she is up to date with everything skin care and she never pushes products or anything on to you.. in fact she makes this home made miracle cream after every appointment for free which is the most amazing cream!\r \r i have told all my friends about zina and i wanted to pass it on to all new yorkers!!! \r \r thank you zina, i am truly grateful to have met such a special, kind, passionate and truly talented women! \r \r \r
