I Went to Machine Gun Kelly's Facialist — Here's What Happened

As a beauty editor, I've had roughly 200 facials in my life. So let's just say I know a thing or two — and the treatment I recently got with Celeste Rodrigues, of Celeste Rodrigues Skin Care in Los Angeles, stands out. For starters, the vibe: The setting is under-the-radar in a "celebs totally go here" kind of way. Her studio is situated on a quiet street in Beverly Hills. In other words, it's exactly the place you'd expect to run into Machine Gun Kelly during a casual weekday afternoon facial. (I didn't, by the way, but it's no secret that the rap star regularly books appointments with Celeste.)

The treatment room has a cozy, girly vibe, with pops of cool-girl touches via the baby pink door and her signature neon Celeste Rodrigues Skin Care sign. The walls are neatly lined with her favorite products from IsClinical, Skin Better Science and other Celeste-approved brands. The celeb expert has a no bullshit, yet luxury-driven approach to skin care. Her "The Works" facial, (aka her most popular treatment), is a multi-step, 90-minute trip to skin heaven and it'll cost you $400. Steep, but worth it. Wondering what it's like? Come with me; it'll be like you're there yourself.
