About the founder

Yoanna Valdés

Certified esthetician · Permanent makeup artist · Founder of Astral Beauty Spa

A studio where Tampa comes to slow down: one guest, one room, one hour of complete attention. Astral grows not by volume, but by trust — skin by skin, ritual by ritual.

Her story

Yoanna was born and raised in Cuba, where she understood from a young age that beauty goes far beyond appearance. Caring for a person, listening to them and helping them feel confident in front of the mirror can become a profound way of transforming their life.

That sensitivity, combined with her obsession for detail and perfection, led her to turn her vocation into a profession. Today, as a certified esthetician and artist specializing in beauty and permanent makeup, she combines technique, precision and aesthetic judgment to create elegant, natural and personalized results.

In Tampa, Florida, she founded Astral Beauty Spa with a clear vision: to create the place she herself would have wanted to find as a client. A private, professional, honest and unhurried space, where every person feels heard, respected and truly cared for.

Yoanna receives her clients personally and studies every face, every skin and every need before beginning. For her, a good result is not just about something looking beautiful, but about representing the person who wears it.

Her work stands out for its precision, but those who know her also remember something more: the way she treats people. Compassion, dedication and a love of serving are an essential part of every experience at Astral.

Because when professionalism meets the heart, beauty stops being just a result and becomes an experience worth remembering.

Her philosophy

  • Listen before treating — every skin tells its own story.
  • Less, but better: honest recommendations over long menus.
  • Privacy and calm are part of the treatment, not a luxury extra.
