AN INTERVIEW WITH TONY SILLA, CO-OWNER AND HEAD ESTHETICIAN OF FACE PLACE With the holiday season upon us, the invites to parties and celebrations will start piling up. While friends and family gather and reunite, taking photos will undoubtedly be on the to-do list. Glowing skin will not only have you looking red-carpet ready, but will have others turning heads. Having been in operation for over 40 years, Face Place is the expert and must-stop destination to help you achieve healthy and ravishing skin. FACE PLACE 8701 Santa Monica Blvd West Hollywood, CA 90069 310.855.1150 www.faceplace.com
Q: Can you tell us about Face Place, and how the idea came about? Tony Silla: Face Place has been successfully operating in Los Angeles for over 40 years. Our signature treatment was first introduced in 1972 by Ernie Benson, the original founder of Face Place. Mr. Benson wanted to provide a facial that was geared primarily to results with a focus on extractions and cleaning the skin. No one was doing this at the time, and still nobody does as thorough a cleaning as we do at Face Place. When skilled extractions are combined with galvanic current, the result is improved skin tone, firmness, fewer lines and a clearer complexion. We (Paul Rogers and myself) acquired the Face Place in 1997 and continue the company’s commitment to the skin care philosophy that has been so successful since its opening. Q: What services does Face Place offer? TS: The Face Place’s West Hollywood location offers its signature facial treatment, which is excellent for all skin types, medical aesthetics including Botox, filler, IPL treatments and laser hair removal, waxing services for men and women through Stark Waxing Studio at Face Place and relaxing reflexology during your facial treatment. Q: Do you find a lot of people coming in more so during the holiday season? TS: During the holiday season, we do see an increase in the frequency with which our clients schedule their facial treatments. It’s the time of year when we get together with family and friends that we may not have seen for some time. In this instance, we especially want to put our best face forward.

Q: Does Face Place provide any holiday specials? TS: During the holidays, for Locale readers only, we will be including one Collagen Elastin Treatment and one Ultimate Face Shield with their first treatment. Q: Any tips on how we can keep our skin looking radiant for the holidays? TS: The best advice we can give is to keep your skin hydrated. Add a serum to your skin regime. Apply Face Place Hydrating Serum under your moisturizer, and your skin will remain radiant not only for the holidays, but all year round! Q: What is the clientele like at Face Place? TS: Our clientele represents those who are concerned about maintaining healthy, clear, glowing skin. That may be a 14-year-old who wants to clear up an acne problem, a 35-year-old who wants to keep their skin’s smooth, youthful complexion or a 65-year-old who has been a client for years and is now sending in their children and grandchildren. Our clients are both male and female, all ages and from all walks of life. Q: How has Face Place evolved over the past 40-plus years? TS: We have stayed true to what works; the signature treatment that was offered at our opening in 1972 is the same treatment we offer today. Equally important has been the development and evolution of our line of facial products targeted to meet the needs of both men and women. Q: How would you describe the vibe of Face Place? TS: Face Place has a very informal, comfortable atmosphere. We treat all our clients as part of the Face Place family.
This one’s for the rebels, the frolickers, the fierce, flirty and the feminine! Like their mission statement, Hey Saylor Cosmetics is “An ode to every woman who believes in herself and knows how to get what she wants.” Noel Sweeny is a self-taught makeup artist and creator of Hey Saylor Cosmetics, who is passionate about one purpose: making women feel beautiful. Each individual product is meticulously formulated to help all women achieve an effortless and natural look for every occasion.
Tips and Tricks: Turn heads with Hey Saylor Cosmetics’ popular red lip stain, Rendezvous for Two, paired with a black dress for a bold and daring look this holiday season. Using a primer as a solid base prior to applying makeup helps it last longer. Add the Age-Erasing Face Primer, Baby’s Butt, onto your list of products to try! A gold shimmer eyeshadow and black eyeliner is a popular and elegant look to pair with red lips for the holidays that’ll make you look picture-perfect for the camera. Use a translucent powder to prevent makeup from creasing. Make the eyes pop with Hey Saylor Cosmetics’ Stay Put Gel Eye Liner in Star Struck that you can choose to apply for a smoky, or subtle look. A nude soft pink lip paired with a smoky eye is a great color combination for the holidays. Achieve a holiday glow with Hey Saylor Cosmetics’ Face Shimmer in Animal or Pour Some Sugar on Me – both of which can be applied to eyes, lips, or cheeks!
