Magdalen's Pure Skin Care is a Day Spa located in downtown Rockville Maryland next to Montgomery College. It was started in 2008 by a very passionate, licensed Esthetician, Magdalen Karugi Karanja. Magdalen grew up in Nairobi, Kenya. While she was growing up, she was fascinated by all things that enhanced skin beauty. She would experiment and make her own skincare masks from tropical fruit recipes that she found out about in the Kenyan newspaper, the Daily Nation. She would then convince her friends to try these masks.
