MEET ELIZABETH.
A skincare kit received as an eleventh birthday present from her Greek grandmother — a woman blessed with flawless olive skin — sparked a lifelong passion for skincare in Lilac & Dahlia’s founder and inspired the name of Pacific Grove’s finest skincare studio.
Lilac stands for passion, purity, and fresh beginnings. Dahlia for inner strength, commitment, honesty, and positive changes. This is what inspired the creation of Lilac & Dahlia. This is what Elizabeth is excited to bring to you in Pacific Grove.
Foundations, East Coast to West Coast.
You’ll benefit from over a decade of skincare education which began on Boston’s famous Newbury Street before moving to the sunnier climes of the San Francisco Bay Area. Elizabeth developed her knowledge and skillset during three years at the successful In-Symmetry Wellness Spa in the heart of the Mission Creek neighborhood of San Francisco.
A journey to expertise
Elizabeth then joined the innovative Bliss Spa at the W Hotel in San Francisco, a spa known nationally for its Brazilian waxing technique and oxygen facials. This allowed Elizabeth to develop her unique approach to your skincare. Having established herself as a first-class esthetician, many of her clients followed her to La Tira Wax Studio in the Noe Valley neighborhood, where they celebrated "Best Brazilian Wax" in San Francisco Magazine's 2017 awards.
A family affair
Elizabeth and her husband welcomed baby William into the world in 2018. This spurred a retreat from city life and ultimately brought them to Monterey County and the beautiful city of Pacific Grove.
Having enjoyed a period of maternity with young William, Elizabeth got to work planning Lilac & Dahlia, which opened in April 2018. You can now benefit from Elizabeth’s expertise and unique approach to skincare right here in Pacific Grove.
A unique approach
Your skin is unique and impacted by many factors. Your lifestyle, your work, and environmental factors all combine with your natural skin type to demand a unique regimen. Elizabeth works with you to formulate quality treatments, customized for effectiveness and results. Versatility in product choice and a primarily natural approach combined with scientific insight mean your skin is in the best possible hands.
