Meet Libbey, Founder of Kiss and Makeup Now in San Diego!
After earning her theater degree from SDSU and spending time in Los Angeles, Libbey found her calling not on stage, but behind the wax pot.
She grew up around hairstylists and originally got into beauty for the brows, but fell hard for how waxing made people feel. What started as a love for perfectly shaped arches turned into a full-blown passion for helping clients feel confident in their own skin. By 2015, Kiss and Makeup Now was born right here in the heart of San Diego.
The studio, tucked into the Clairemont neighborhood, feels more like your best friend’s cozy (and slightly Barbie-themed) living room than a typical wax spot. With a heated bed, clean tools laid out like a pro, and Libbey’s signature humor, you’ll leave your Brazilian or underarm wax wondering why you ever put it off. Every session is tailored whether you need a wax before a maternity photoshoot or just want a smoother switch from shaving. It's body care with personality and precision.

If you’re in San Diego and want more than just a quick rip-and-go wax, Kiss and Makeup Now is the spot. We specialize in customized Brazilian waxing using a mix of hard and soft waxes for sensitive skin, coarse hair, and everything in between. Clients say it feels more like a cozy comedy show than a salon visit, heated bed, comfy pillows, and all. Whether it’s your first wax or you’re a monthly regular, we’ve got the smooth part handled.
-
Sensitive skin? Totally valid concern and totally manageable. We use gentle wax formulas and skin-safe techniques designed to minimize redness, bumps, and post-wax irritation. Most clients with reactive skin notice smoother results and fewer ingrown hairs over time, especially when they follow the right prep and aftercare routine. Plus, waxing reduces the risk of shaving-related irritation like razor burn or nicks.
-
Absolutely. We regularly see pregnant clients (especially third-trimester folks who can’t even see their bikini line anymore). Brazilian waxing during pregnancy is safe when done by a trained professional who understands how to adjust for skin sensitivity, swelling, and positioning. Bonus: the heated bed, pillows, and humor help take the edge off. Just double-check with your OB if you’re unsure.
-
Skipping exfoliation. Using heavy lotions. Wearing tight jeans right after. We see it all. The most common aftercare mistakes include not using an ingrown serum, picking at bumps, or applying scented products that can clog pores or cause irritation. Our best advice? Keep it clean, wear breathable fabric, and follow our full aftercare guide.
-
Most clients stay smooth for about 3 to 5 weeks, depending on their hair type, hormones, and consistency with waxing. The more regular you are, the slower and softer your hair grows back. If it’s your first time, expect regrowth a little sooner, but don’t worry, it gets better each visit.
-
Start with a gentle exfoliator (2–3 times a week) and follow with an ingrown serum designed for post-wax care. Look for ingredients like salicylic acid, lactic acid, or tea tree oithird-trimesterl just skip anything harsh, overly scented, or comedogenic. We’ll recommend a product at your appointment based on your skin type so you leave with a plan, not a guess.
