Skincare Palm Springs · Since 1999
Our Story
The skincare branch of a family business — and the little label that grew out of the treatment room.
How We Began
The Official Skincare Branch
Skincare Palm Springs began as the product line of Palm Springs Spa Massage Inc. When Samuel launched it, he introduced it in his own words as “the official Skincare Palm Springs branch of Palm Springs Spa Massage Inc.” — offering “a full line of spa quality, potent and effective skin, body, bath and hair care formulations.”
The line grew out of the work itself. In the founders’ words: “after 20+ years and serving over 30,000 massage therapy and skin care clients in Palm Springs and beyond,” the house finally offered its most-loved skincare to take home. The family’s roots reach back to Massage Mechanics, and the business — family owned since 1999 — became Palm Springs Spa Massage. The skincare branch carries the family name on every jar.
Today the Collection is made exclusively for us under the Skincare Palm Springs label — every piece on this site, made to order — cruelty free, and made in the USA.
The Heart of the Craft
“Intuitive spa service customized according to what your therapist senses when their healing hands connect to your body.”
That is Samuel’s own definition of what happens here — and it is why the word of this house is bespoke. The products are chosen in advance; the care is sensed in the moment. Never cookie-cutter.
The People
Two Names You’ll Know
Samuel — Founder & Owner
Samuel founded the family business in 1999 and built it one guest at a time — from a single therapist’s practice into Palm Springs Spa Massage, with its skincare branch beside it. The bespoke standard is his: every product chosen, every session made to order, because that is how he has always worked.
Esther — Licensed Esthetician & Reservation Manager
Esther is the esthetician of the house — standalone facials are her specialty and her own line of the business — and the reservation manager who keeps every booking running beautifully. When you book a facial, you are booking her skilled hands and her esthetician’s eye.
The House Motto
“Are you mature in years? Are you in any pain? All are welcome — rest in our strong, safe hands.”
It has been the motto of the house from the beginning — and it hangs over the skincare shelf just as it hangs over the massage table.
