About
Hello, my name is Rachael! I am the owner of Desert Aura Skin, a fully state board–compliant skincare studio offering professional makeup, esthetic, and body treatments. I am a licensed esthetician specializing in skin health, advanced skincare, and polished, camera-ready makeup for events, photo shoots, and corporate settings. I am trusted by professional athletes and high-profile clients while also proudly serving everyday clients. Services are delivered with professionalism, discretion, and attention to detail. Makeup services include event and special-occasion makeup, individual and small-group bookings, and personalized makeup lessons for everyday, business, or professional looks, available in person or virtually. For clients needing both makeup and hair services, I partner with a professional hairstylist to offer coordinated hair and makeup packages so services can be completed efficiently at the same time. Skincare services include chemical peels, anti-aging, acne, and skin-brightening treatments, as well as full-body lymphatic treatments. Appointments are available in-studio or via mobile services. Thank you for choosing Desert Aura Skin! 🏜️

Amazing…! Had a girls’ weekend and we did 8 mini facials and everyone was so happy with their services and each was customized to their preference!

So gentle and relaxing! My face was very vibrant after, products used were delicate as my face gets irritated easily. Was so relaxed I fell asleep highly recommend!

Rachael gave me a facial from the heavens! It was my first time, I was very skeptical because I have extremely sensitive skin I left there feeling better than I ever have! My skin was glowing, no break outs, no stress!! She listened to my concerns, explained everything to a T and answered any of my questions without hesitation! Now thats someone who knows what theyre doing!!

Rachel is exceptional at what she does. Shes knowledgeable, attentive, and very intentional with her work. My skin looked incredible and continued to glow well beyond the appointment. If youre looking for real results and not just a quick facial, shes the one.
Desert Aura's reply
Thank you so much, Myra! It was such a pleasure taking care of your skin at Desert Aura Skin. I’m so glad you loved your facial and saw lasting results, that’s always my goal for my Phoenix skincare clients. I truly appreciate your trust and support 💛
