Desuar owner Deisy Suarez-Giles started making mud masks and scrubs as a 6-year-old at home in the Dominican Republic before immigrating to Brooklyn, N.Y., with her family.
At 10, she started assisting Mary Kay and Avon representatives, and then later soaked up skincare and makeup knowledge working at cosmetics counters in major department stores in New York City.
In 2007, Suarez-Giles moved to L.A. and, after a brief stint running a spa inside a North Hollywood salon, started offering facials, massages, skin treatments and beauty services out of her home.
In 2014, she opened her first day spa in downtown L.A. and today has three with locations that include Hollywood and Monterey. With a degree in spa and hospitality management from UC Irvine, the licensed esthetician, certified massage therapist and published author believes in making spas accessible by providing high-end experiences at reasonable prices.
