‘Skincare’ Review: Elizabeth Banks Goes For The Kill In This Twisted Face-Off Thriller


A review of Skincare starring Elizabeth Banks as a facialist who suspects the competing aesthetician across the street is trying to gaslight her

It is a fictional story very loosely inspired apparently by a real case involving aesthetician Dawn DaLuise who was accused of putting out a hit on a rival facialist in 2014 and did wind up doing some prison time before being acquitted. Trouble starts however when her landlord rents the empty store space across the alley to a rival, Angel Vergara ( Mexican star Luis Gerardo Mendez) who she sees as direct and unwanted competition. Cast: Elizabeth Banks, Lewis Pullman, Luis Gerardo Mendez, Michaela Jae Rodriguez, Nathan Fillion, Erik Palladino, Ella Balinska, Mike Ferguson, Wendie Malick.
