About

Meet Katie

Katie Yen is a licensed esthetician and the founder of YEN by Katie — a private studio in Santa Clara, CA dedicated to intentional, results-driven skincare and beauty services.

Her approach starts with listening. Every session begins with a skin analysis and honest conversation about your goals, so each treatment is built around you, not a template. Katie works with professional-grade products and stays current through continuing education, bringing both precision and warmth to every appointment.

As a woman-owned business rooted in the Bay Area, YEN by Katie is a space where you can arrive as you are and leave feeling genuinely cared for.

Reviews

What Clients Say

★★★★★
"She absolutely nailed the look I was going for — she really listened to exactly what I wanted and brought it to life perfectly. Her calm, cool energy made the whole process so relaxing."

Makeup Application

★★★★★
"My skin was extremely hydrated and glowy afterwards. The reset facial was super relaxing and comforting. I would definitely book with Katie again."

YOU Facial

★★★★★
"Three facials over two months plus product recommendations — my skin has never looked better. Katie truly knows what she's doing."

YOU Facial + Skincare Consultation

★★★★★
"Deep cleansing, gentle exfoliation, a soothing mask — my skin felt soft, hydrated, and visibly brighter. The facial massage melted away tension. I will definitely be back."

Signature Facial

★★★★★
"Katie did my hair and makeup for my engagement photoshoot. She talked me through everything, adjusted as needed, and the results held up even through San Francisco fog."

Bridal Makeup & Hair

★★★★★
"Super sweet, kind, and professional. From beginning to end she made me feel comfortable and at ease — which is difficult to come by. Love how my brows came out!"

Do you take walk-ins? +
YEN by Katie is by appointment only. Same-day appointments may be available depending on the schedule — book online or message us on social media to check.
How do I book? +

What products do you use? +
All products are professional-grade and carefully selected for both efficacy and skin safety. Katie also uses GlyMed Plus — the same line available through the Products page.
Can I add treatments to my facial? +
Yes — add-ons like LED therapy, Gua Sha, or microcurrent can be included with your facial. Just mention it when booking — we'll include it if it makes sense for your skin, since not every treatment is right for every skin type.
How should I prepare for my appointment? +
Arrive with a clean face. Avoid strong exfoliants or actives (retinol, AHA/BHA) the day before your facial or makeup session, unless otherwise directed.
