Our consultations are among the things we're best known for — and they're a lot of fun! Whether you choose an in-person or virtual option, a thoughtful Ayla Guide will review the products you're currently using, discuss what else you'd like to achieve with your regimen, and make some suggestions just for you. We offer makeup lessons, too. 

 

Check out our menu of options below. Please note that when you schedule, all times listed are on Pacific Time.

IN-DEPTH CONSULTATIONS & LESSONS

Skincare: In-Depth Master Esthetician Consultation
30 minutes via video
A consultation with Julia March (the facialist voted "Best of NY" by New York Magazine and "Best of the Best" by Allure) is always incredibly thorough — and incredibly helpful. During your one-on-one video session with this master facialist, she’ll put together a suggested AM/PM skincare routine for you, with precise detail around application methods and suggested equipment/devices, if you’re interested in learning more about those possibilities. We’re sure you’ll love Julia as much as we do. (Dara treats all of her suggestions as gospel.)
Cost: $50, which includes a $5 credit towards your next purchase at Ayla

Makeup: In-Depth Makeup Artist Lesson with Melissa McMillan
50 minutes in person or via video
Our go-to makeup artist, Melissa, delivers personalized coaching on an overall look, specific products and shades, and pro application techniques with expertise and a sense of humor that we adore. Key: she'll help you determine if you're warm or cool toned — harder than it seems — and which color season you belong to, which will help make clothing choices a breeze, too. (Looking for two-person or express 30-minute sessions? Check out all the makeup options here.)

Mindset: Bach Flower Consultation
30-40 minutes via phone
During this phone call, the founder of Les Fleurs de Bach, Gérard, will review your Bach Flower Consultation form, ask some questions, and work with you to select a custom blend together. The consultation includes a custom-blended Bach flower remedy.
Read more about our approach to Bach flower remedies here and learn why we love them so much here. The fact that Gérard himself is doing these consultations is, in our view, epic.
Cost: $110
