Beloved same-day skincare chain to open first San Antonio salon
Face Foundrié will begin offering same-day services in 2026.
Cult-favorite salon chain Face Foundrié is bringing its inclusive approach to beauty to San Antonio for the first time. According to state filings, the franchise is eyeing a spring debut at 320 E Basse Rd #101 in the Quarry Village shopping center.
In 2024, the company identified Alamo City as its next planned expansion market. At the time, it was targeting popular shopping centers like The Shops at La Cantera, The Rim, and The Village at Stone Oak.
“As we continue to expand, San Antonio stands out as a city brimming with potential,” the company wrote in a press release. “Known for its rich history and dynamic economy, San Antonio offers a prime environment for growth. We have identified several key markets within San Antonio that present exciting multi-unit opportunities.”
Founder Michele Henry envisioned the brand after having her third child. Frustrated by the hassle of booking spas in advance and dealing with changing skin, she saw a gap in the market for same-day skincare. The research led to her opening the first Face Foundrié in 2019.
As the name implies, the chain focuses exclusively on the face. Among the services offered are dermaplaning, chemical peels, hydrogel masks, facials, light therapy, and brow waxing and tinting. Ever on top of trends, it also regularly adds treatments like gua sha, cupping, and microchanneling to stimulate cell turnover.
Although services are offered à la carte, Face Foundrié also offers memberships for regular upkeep. Fans can also organize Face Parties for five or more guests, scoring a 10 percent card for their efforts.
According to Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation records, the salon is aiming to complete its buildout at Quarry Village by mid-April 2026. State records are not always accurate indicators of real project timelines. A request for more details was not returned in time for publication.
