Why Sought-After Esthetician Joomee Song Doesn’t Recommend Retinol and More of Her Skin Secrets

For Joomee Song, the secret to facial sculpting is all in the hands—no fancy gadgets, no high-tech tools, just her fingers. The Los Angeles-based esthetician and founder of Faceworks Inc. has a client roster that reads like an awards show red carpet (think: Lady Gaga, Zendaya, Greta Lee, Sydney Sweeney, and more), all of whom swear by her signature KAIKA™ facial sculpting massage—a technique rooted in deep facial massage, chiropractic Shiatsu, and Japanese microcurrent therapy. Fittingly, Kaika means "to bloom" in Japanese.


In this episode, Joomee shares how growing up in Japan and watching her grandmother’s skincare rituals shaped her holistic approach, why she believes skincare routines as of late are way too aggressive, and whether facial massage can replace your actives. Plus, she breaks down how overusing one side of your body can lead to facial asymmetry and her go-to massage techniques for sculpting your face at home.
