Aminah's Organic Skin Spa: Our History, Mission & Vision


Aminah's Organic Skin Spa is an eco-friendly “green” spa that focuses on a holistic approach to skincare while working to reduce global warming. The owner of Aminah's Organic Skin Spa, Aminah, is a licensed Esthetician who was originally trained in Newport Beach, CA. Aminah and her staff's knowledge stems from the fact that they have struggled with skin issues themselves and have learned how to treat and improve their skin using Eminence Organic Skin products from Hungary.

Aminah founded her company with the intention of improving the self-confidence of our
clients. We know how important first impressions are and how blemished skin can reduce your self- esteem and discourage you from approaching others for the first time. Our mission is clear: To improve our client's skin which brings self-confidence and self-empowerment which in turn will enhance all facets of their lives.

We are a Las Vegas spa that proudly uses organic spa products that contain no harsh chemicals, pesticides, herbicides or parabens. Our products are sodium laurel sulfate-free and cruelty-free. 

Organic Skincare, Products & Techniques that Deliver Results


The organic products and facials used at our Las Vegas day spa are more powerful and results-oriented than chemical-based skincare and facials. This is because the organic products in our facials, and prescription home care regime for clients, have a higher concentration of vitamins and minerals sourced from organic fruits, vegetables, seeds and hand-harvested herbs. Our skin recognizes these organic ingredients as food because they are in fact food and nutrition for the skin.  Additionally, our Hungarian Facial massage techniques and advanced mixology skills drives results!


Another benefit of using organic skincare is the skin's extremely high ability to absorb organic nutrients.This is because the molecules of organic ingredients are smaller and therefore able to penetrate deeper and work more effectively than chemical-based products. This is why over 90% of our clients see and feel results from just one treatment!


We're an Earth-Friendly Spa that Cares


Our staff knows how vitally important it is to lessen our carbon footprint here on earth. That is why we strive to be as “green” as possible. Currently our Las Vegas organic spa is over 60% green. We routinely recycle at our spa by using green and organic skincare products that are all packaged in recycled materials, vegetable ink and by making use of a green, paperless booking and check-out system.

At Aminah’s Organic Skin Spa we primarily use green cleaning products and we even use
green/organic bug deterrent made with essential oils. Additionally, we partner with our skincare company Eminence Organics and cooperate in over a dozen green initiatives with them. 

For example, for every product sold, Eminence 
Organics plants a tree in one of 37 countries around the world that can be tracked online. This particular movement is called “Forests for Future”. Recently we were informed that our Las Vegas spa helped contribute to the planting of over 700 trees since November 2012 which incidentally, covers an area approximately 68 acres. 

We truly are a Las Vegas day spa that cares about our local community, the planet we live on and the clients we serve. In our on-going effort to contribute to the community, our spa volunteers at the Shade Tree women's shelter and the American Cancer Society because we wish to help those less fortunate who are in need.

Meet Our Staff Members 


Aminah’s Organic Skin Spa would be nothing without its dynamic team members that are dedicated to improving our clients’ skin and self-esteem, while also staying abreast with the continuing education of organic skincare. Learn more about what makes each of these fantastic women unique below.

Jessica - Spa Manager

Jessica has been in customer service for almost fourteen years, starting with her
first job at a children’s day care center. From there, her career has taken her
through different aspects of customer service and retail including merchandising,
marketing, shipping and receiving, and managerial concepts. Jessica is a firm
believer in doing her part for the environment. Known as the “Recycling Queen” at
a previous job, Jessica pushed for a system of recycling at the corporate level which
helped to result in a regional eWaste recycling venture. She has been “green” for
decades with a long-lived love of Organics and natural living. When first introduced
to the Organic skin care line Eminence, Jessica fell in love right away and noticed a
smoother complexion. However, it didn’t take long to notice other changes in her
skin as well: increased hydration and balance, fewer breakouts, and an ever-present
glow, as well as virtually no more Eczema flare-ups. “Eminence will be the last skin
care line I ever use!”

Dafne - Lead Esthetician

Dafne is a professionally trained dancer in jazz, tap, acrobats, hip hop, and modern
dancing. She became a dancer for a very well known company in Las Vegas. When
she turned 16 she found out she had a passion not only for dance but also makeup and
decided to do makeup on the side just to make some extra money. At the age of
18 Dafne decided to explore more and became a special EX make up artist and learned
about molding and sculpting the face. At the age of 19 a clothing designer decided
to hire her as his lead make up artist and she did runway make-up for a few months
before realizing she had a passion for skin care as well. Dafne got to meet women with
different skin types and skin problems. She wanted to help women and men get the
flawless skin they always look for when it comes to make-up. So she decided to get her
license to help educate people about their skin and how to take care of it.

Dafne is our lead Esthetican and has immersed herself in learning the Unique Hungarian Techniques we implore during out facials.  She is an exceptional team player and leader training our new Estheticians with passion and care.  Her exceptional customer service and leadership makes her invaluable.

Jennifer - Esthetician

Jennifer was born and raised in Las Vegas. She has been an esthetician for ten years,
working in both resort and local spas. Jennifer decided to become an esthetician because
she wanted to find a career that would allow her to take the time in obtaining a degree
in creative writing. What she discovered is a love for the artistry of aesthetics and
for being of service to clients. It feels good to make other feel good! The field of
aesthetics is always growing. Jennifer loves learning and watching clients' skin transform.

There is nothing better than improving the way a person feels about their skin
and themselves. She is a mother, a stepmother, a wife and the mama to two goofy
Labradors. Jennifer enjoys yoga, writing, and photography.  Jennifer is actually one of the main writers for our Blogs and Newsletters.  Jennifer believes she has the perfect marriage of blending her 2 passions of writing and skincare and so do we!

Sara - Esthetician/ Receptionist

Sara’s interest in esthetics happened quite accidentally: while struggling through cosmetology school and trying desperately to enjoy doing hair, her interest in skin care was piqued during a brief chapter on facials. After deciding that cosmetology just wasn’t in her cards, she switched her focus to skin care and hasn’t looked back. Coming from a performance background, and paired with a particular love of anatomy, she not only understands the importance of a perfectly arched brow, but the mechanisms and structures that support that brow. Her keen interest in the physiology of the skin and musculature of the face are what drive her passion for esthetics and she is constantly working to expand her knowledge.

A professional dancer and mother of two, Sara can often be found honing her abilities in a dance studio or doing chemistry experiments with her two young boys, who she affectionately calls her Mad Scientists.  Sara is our in house “skin” Wikipedia.  Her advanced knowledge of anatomy and chemistry makes her the go to person for skin facts.  Additionally, Sara is a talented Esthetician and puts clients at ease with her confident, reassuring touch and expertise skills.

We appreciate you taking the time to learn more about the history, mission and team members of Aminah’s Organic Skin Spa. If you are interested in scheduling an appointment at our Las Vegas day spa, please fill out the forms located on our website or book an appointment online today.

Pow, Bang, Kaboom! Antioxidants, the Super Skin Heroes!


“With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility.”
Combating the signs of aging takes power. Where do we find the needed power amongst rows and rows of products that claim to have the secret weapon to aging? It’s overwhelming and expensive to try to solve the age dilemma.  A bit of science helps to understand why we age. A bit a science fiction makes it fun!

There is a consistent process of damage going on constantly on your skin called free radical damage. Sort of like evil unstable electrons determined to speed up signs of aging such as loss of elasticity and wrinkles. It would be a sad fate for our delicate dermis, except for an incredible bunch of superhero molecules called antioxidants that work to inhibit the oxidation of other molecules. These are the good guys! They come to the rescue and stabilize and balance the skin, preventing premature aging. Fortunately you don’t need a bat signal to find antioxidants. They come in the form of fruits, vegetables, and herbs. Most of the benefits from antioxidants taken internally never reach the skin. Topical application works best for the protection of your skin.

Here at Aminah’s Organic Skin Spa, we specialize in antioxidant rich skin care. Every Eminence Organics product is loaded with super skin heroes. Our stimulating treatments, such as the Blueberry Detox Peel, is able to restore radiance in a single treatment. Try one of our serum boosters, which are like superheroes with boxing gloves. “It’s clobbering time” for all the mean free radicals. Ingredients like acai berry and grape, with the ability to smooth deep wrinkles, will restore harmony in the skin. Vitamins A and C and Co Q10 are all extremely potent age-slowers. Who needs a cape or a mask when you have pulp, seeds, and peels to maintain a youthful glow?

 What makes Eminence superior to other skin care products is quality and the lack of disruption in the natural state of ingredients. Skin is smart. It knows the difference between synthetic Vitamin C and natural Vitamin C from strawberries, and therefore our skin will more readily accept the natural versus the unstable lab engineered stuff. Protect your skin from the destructive forces of molecular warfare with monthly facials and daily home care.

Raw Vegan Diet for your Skin

Consumers interest in raw, vegan, holistic diets are on the rise.  Why not pursue the same for your skin.  Your skin is your body's largest organ and your body's largest detoxification organ meaning it filters what you eat, drink or more importantly what you are not eating or drinking.  Though beautiful skin starts from the inside most of us are lacking in the internal nutrients we need to reach maximum health and vitality of the external skin.  This why we suggest a raw, organic diet for your skin with Eminence Organics Skincare products, handmade in Hungary since 1958!  Organic products are more powerful and results oriented because they have a higher concentration of nutrients derived from organic sources such as fruit pulp, vegetable roots, seeds and hand harvested herbs.  Much like juicing may lead to weight loss, increased energy and higher vitamins absorbed, your skin responds to high potency nutrients found in organic skincare.

The best way to test this is to come in for an introductory facial at Aminah's Organic Skin Spa (702) 816-5996.  99% of our clients feel and see a difference from one facial.  From our youngest client at 9 years of age to our oldest client 75 years of age, each see a difference.  Then to maintain that new found healthy skin invest in a starter kit from Eminence Organics Skincare.  This is a small, travel size sampling of a few products that will last about a month.  You will fall in love with the brimming herbs and aromas of the fruit pulp and herbs and be delighted in the improved texture and quality of your skin.  You will fee great that you are feeding your skin vital nutrients necessary to slow aging and improve certain conditions such as sun damage, acne, rosacea.

Organic skincare products such as Eminence Organics and the advanced mixology and Hungarian facial massage techniques that Aminah's Organic Skin Spa employs can continually improve your skin so that your skin does not get used to the same technique.  The facials utilize a unique mixture of products based on each clients needs and are rotated so that the benefits from the various ingredients are experienced.  Be it the Blueberry Detox Firming Peel, Cucumber & Parsley treatment, or Yam & Pumpkin Enzyme Peel, each facial is a decadent dance of special Hungarian Anti-Aging massage techniques and vitamin packed skincare treatments renewing, hydrating and balancing various skin conditions leaving the skin and body relaxed and rejuvenated and refueled with essential vitamins and minerals.

So beautify from the inside out and feed your skin a raw, organic diet that is nutrient dense and see the maximum smoothness and radiance come through like you have never seen before.  For more information visit www.aminahsorganicskinspa.com or call (702) 816-5996 for a complimentary consultation.

Organically Yours,
Aminah's Organic Skin Spa
