Gisella Zimmer: The Brain Behind Elite Beauty Bar

With an interest in beauty from a young age, Gisella Zimmer set out to provide clients with a one-of-a-kind experience for beauty maintenance. Inspired by her mothers knack for business, Gisella dreamed of creating a space which can be a one stop shop for all things beauty. She always had her parents’ entrepreneurial spirit and she recognized a space in the beauty industry for an emphasis on natural beauty, so she began making plans.

Gisella’s journey in the beauty industry is impressive, to say the least. She has relentlessly pursued education in many aspects of beauty, and she is continuously expanding her knowledge. She has a variety of certificates including Master Makeup and Hair Design, Derma Lip Blush Specialist, Brow Lamination, Lash Lift Artist, and more. With all of these certificates, Gisella has always stuck to her belief that beauty is timeless. She uses her extensive knowledge to highlight natural beauty while providing exceptional services.

As an expert in beauty, Gisella strived to create her own luxury beauty world to share with others at an affordable price. She opened Elite Beauty Bar, keeping the motto “luxury with a heart” in mind. With Elite Beauty Bar, Gisella takes away the hassle of clients running around town for different beauty appointments by ensuring Elite Beauty is a one-stop shop for all beauty treatments.

As the only one-stop beauty salon in Pasadena, Elite Beauty Bar offers a myriad of services. From manicures, make-up, and hair styling to brow lamination, waxing, and facials, Elite Beauty Bar has got it covered. That being said, Gisella incorporates the 80/20 philosophy in her work by reminding clients that 80% of their results come from at-home care and 20% come from professional treatments.

Elite Beauty Bar also prides itself on its commitment to using cruelty-free, vegan, innovative, and natural products. Some brands used by the salon are Jazzy France, Pinkies Collections, and ASIDA Paris. Gisella loves working with these brands because they combine her Filipino roots with French quality.

Gisella explains, “I’m proud to say that these are the first Filipino cosmetics that are made in France and I’m proud of it as I am a Filipino as well. They are cruelty-free, vegan, and natural.”

Since its opening in September of 2023, Elite Beauty Bar has expanded exponentially, and continues to do so. Gisella remains committed to natural beauty and hopes to continue providing clients with a unique experience of luxury care at an affordable price.
