Swiss Touch SkinCare is the best-kept secret in LA! I've been going to Ruth for 15 years, and her amazing facials and expert skin care advice are integral in maintaining a glowing complexion. Ruth is a genius with eyebrow shaping, so I don't let anyone touch them but her. I love the calm, beautiful atmosphere of her studio, flexible hours, and she has incredible prices too.

My skin has never looked so good... Ruth is amazing at what she does I recommend her anytime someone asks me about my skin so I thought I'd let all you yelpers know too :) she also set me up with amazing products that are all natural and I can totally tell the difference from anything else I've ever used. The best part is that she kept my skincare routine super simple and easy to maintain time wise and financially. Her prices are really reasonable too! 10/10 highly recommended!!

I highly recommend Ruth. I am in my 40's and still continue to battle acne, and Ruth has been instrumental in the drastic improvement of my breakouts. She does not try to up-sell you at all. However because of her, I have finally found products that improve my skin's texture and appearance. She takes the time to help you because she genuinely cares about her clients. Ruth is the best!

I've been to Ruth twice now and she is hands down the best person to go to when you're unhappy with your skin. Her facials are incredibly relaxing and I always leave with a huge smile on my face. She recommends products best suited for your skin and gives you samples of products to try. Every product I've sampled from her I've already purchased because they're that GOOD! highly recommend her. I'll be coming back every 1-2 months :)

Ruth is the best!! I am so glad I was referred to her by some moms- as I was in desperate need of eyebrow shaping.
First of all she is so friendly, felt like I had known her for years but it was my first time meeting her. And second, she is very skilled at her craft and did an excellent and thorough job shaping my brows. She does facials and other skincare services as well, but for me I will definitely be returning for my next brow waxing.

I called with a 911 face emergency (a third eye!! A huge cystic blemish on my forehead. Ruth helped me with an extraction and gave me high frequency therapy to kill the bacteria and infection...and sent me on my way so that the blemish would go down before a big meeting the next day. The space is beautiful and I felt more than taken care of. Thank you so much Ruth, can't wait to come back without an emergency.

Ruth is simply the best! She is a true gem and I almost don’t want to write this review so I can keep her schedule a little more available for me. Lol.
I have been looking for someone I can trust with my sensitive skin...she’s it. She is knowledgeable, passionate, and she really does have the Swiss touch. I have already seen a transformation on my skin since starting to see her and am so excited for her to keep being my skin guru.

Ruth is a dream. Not only is she lovely and her set up so clean and yet still cozy, she knows skin care. She is very good at what she does and, on your first visit, she takes you through what she sees and what she's going to do and, at the end, she gives advice for how to take better care of your skin at home. She does not push products on you or make you feel like you should be coming to see her monthly. She just wants her clients to feel really good when they leave. Which I did. I can't want to go see her the next time!

I have been going to have Ruth turn back time for years. She is wonderful and excellent at her craft. After being out yesterday, a woman stopped me to say how lovely my eyebrows looked. Sometimes when you go to someone for a long time you take them for granted. Ruth is an artist with brows, just want others to know how amazing she is at her job!

Ruth is simply phenomenal. My first experience with her was about a year and a half ago. I've never loved my skin, never really "indulged" in facials so this visit was a big deal. I expected a relaxing spa like experience, to feel refreshed, and go on my way. What I got was so. much. more. Ruth spent quality time getting to know me, my skin, what I loved, what I didn't, and created a customized experience for me. She also took time to speak about my skin type and made suggestions for my daily routine and products. She did not push the products, but did provide deep knowledge

Oh, if only I still lived in LA... this is the only place I trust with my acne prone skin. I found Ruth about 5 years ago when I was struggling to get my adult acne under control. After the first visit, I went home with samples of products that she believed in so much, she told me she would refund my money if they didn't work to my satisfaction.… Well let me just say, it worked! The cleanser, the scrub, the moisturizer... Ruth basically personalized my skin care regimen based on my skin type. Anyone that can help clear up acne is a skin care expert in my book. 5 years later, I no longer
