Lacy Yamaoka

is a Texas native and former luxury travel and social media marketeer turned aesthetician after parlaying her adoration for expat-living, traveling, and wellness into a thoughtfully-designed skin studio. After working and living around the globe from 2006 to 2017, and receiving spa experiences at top hotels from Tokyo to Tapei, to Oslo and Anguilla, she noticed a lack of intention in the North Dallas market where you might say wow, that was it. Traveling the world she’s been able to experience how culture and design intersect. The fine details in the studio, from the Japanese and French-infused service to the Kelly Wearstler lighting and arresting scent she discovered in St. Barths, it’s all about pleasure, escapism, design, and feel-good intention. All the touchpoints you might find in a five-star hotel, and she’s lived in a few.

The day Lacy graduated esthetics school, she flew out to a seminar and training with Biologique Recherche, as there was no doubt who her skincare partner would be, having discovered the brand after visiting Paris early on in her career. With the homogenous, quick beauty fixes rampantly available, Lacy, a creative chameleon and lifelong learner saw this as an opportunity to help others embrace the aging process positively and enhance natural beauty, versus striving for perfection. Plus she enjoys the bonus of clients feeling full of life post-treatment, it’s satisfying for all. Je ne sais quoi - the French saying that describes the elusive beauty you cannot quite put your finger on, that cool-girl confidence, is what Lacy believes women should strive for, and it all starts with feeling good about the skin you’re in. The inner glow, her intuitive skincare method, consistent self-care and wellness are all important factors in achieving long-lasting results. Wellness for Lacy is simple - honoring what your body needs, and doing it.
