I first started visiting Kim for Brazilian waxes. She was always fantastic at waxing—gentle, thorough and clean—and at one of my visits I was having a particularly bad breakout/skin day and she gave me a free consultation. I’ve struggled with minor facial acne since high school. In high school, I was on antibiotic creams and pills to fight the acne and as a swimmer my skin was both oily, sensitive, inflamed and extremely dry all at the same time. As an adult, I went off the antibiotic treatments (mostly) and onto birth control—that lead to a host of other hormonal skin issues. When I finally consulted with Kim I was off the bc but still suffering from stubborn hormonal breakouts around my jaw line and my pores were clogged but so tight that my skin was peeling in some places. I was spending hundreds of dollars on all sorts of over the counter lotions and acne treatments but couldn’t find anything that felt good on my skin. My first facial with Kim was an incredible experience. She explained every treatment, answered my questions, and made me feel like a QUEEN. She recommended a trio of Osmosis products for me: Clarify Serum, Purify Cleanser, and Quench Lotion. These products just felt right on my skin and my skin has flourished under Kim’s care. I no longer have the dry-oily-inflamed hormonal skin that I came to Kim with. A week after my first facial with Kim and a few days of my new Osmosis regimen I sent both my younger sisters to see Kim. They had similar, nothing short of miraculous, results. I choose Skin & Tonic because I trust Kim’s expertise and most importantly I know that Kim truly cares about each and every one of her clients. Her passion for skin care really shines through in the quality of the work she does. I’ve never felt that Kim gives less than 150% of her effort to each and every facial I have with her. Not only would I recommend family and friends to go see Kim—I already have! Both sisters, my mom and my neighbor are regulars at Skin & Tonic now! Whenever I have a chance to send a friend to see Kim I take it! Kim is a skin miracle worker, plain and simple.

I enjoy trusting Kim with my skincare as facials are an important part of my self-care. She encourages and inspires a natural approach with both her products and her educational guidance for a personalized treatment for my skin's ever changing needs. Her soft, nurturing touch is welcome to my nervous system and helps me to shine my brightest face to the world!

I have experienced problem skin since I was a teenager, mostly acne and oily skin. I have tried it all... medications, natural remedies, topical lotions, but my skin is ever changing as I age so nothing seems to work forever. I would use makeup to cover my imperfections but that often created more problems. Although I started going to Skin & Tonic for waxing in Lahaina, I quickly came to consider Kim as my skin guru. She is so knowledgable and always has great suggestions for skin issues, using gentle and natural products. I started using the Osmosis Skincare line and LOVE it. I use the cleanser, cc cream, masks, powder and bronzer. I have also gone to Kim for facials, which are amazing. Even though I moved to the other side of the island, I will still drive to Lahaina to visit Skin & Tonic for treatments and products. I always recommend Skin & Tonic to anyone as Kim is the sweetest, most professional, knowledgable and caring Esthetician on Maui.

For years I have been suffering with rosacea and I have tried everything from antibiotics to IPL's and nothing was working. If anything, those harsh treatments and medication made things worse in the long run.

Then I found Kim, the owner and aesthetician, of Skin and Tonic. She has been a miracle worker. She has provided me with knowledge about how to heal from the inside out. When I go see her she performs a non evasive facial on me loaded with nutrients and calming products. Their is no downtime after my facials and no harsh chemicals or products used.
With proper diet, exercise, and my monthly revitalize facials I now am looking better than ever. The redness has dissipated and even the texture of my skin looks smooth and glowing.
I can't thank Kim enough. I would recommend her in a heart beat for anyone who has any skin facial issues or for anyone who just wants to look their best.
Thank you Kim!

My skin has drastically improved since receiving treatments at Skin & Tonic! The waxing treatments I’ve received are also extremely gentle. I would recommend Skin & Tonic to anyone on Maui, especially if you are in Lahaina. Kim is the best!
