About violet
Violet Mkhitaryan is a biochemist and aesthetician in Boston, celebrated for her exceptional expertise in skincare and personalized, results-driven beauty treatments.
Her journey into the world of beauty began in Yerevan, Armenia, where, from a young age, Violet was captivated by the art and science of natural, holistic beauty. After moving to Boston, she refined her craft while working in premier salons, developing a deep understanding of skin.
In 2004, Violet’s vision and passion gave rise to her award-winning skincare products and spa experiences, bringing together plant medicine knowledge, innovative formulations, and a holistic approach to beauty.
Her Newbury Street spa became a Boston beauty destination, earning recognition in Boston Magazine as a “Best of Boston” favorite for decades and establishing Violet as a go-to expert for results-driven facials. Her philosophy is rooted in personalized care: understanding each client’s unique skin needs and creating treatments designed to deliver visible, lasting results.
our foundation
Violet is a combination of science, nature, ancient Eastern European wisdom and real-world expertise. Our philosophy is simple – work in harmony with the skin’s natural rhythms, its dynamic skin barrier —supporting its ability to renew, restore, and maintain a healthy, radiant balance.
Decades of hands-on esthetic expertise, a degree in biochemistry, and an in-depth knowledge of medicinal plants come together in every Violet formula that came to life by listening to my clients’ concerns, understanding their skin needs, and witnessing countless skin transformations throughout the years.
