How to Prepare for Your Glamour Glow Facial

Preparing your skin beforehand to get the most out of your Glamour Glow Facial can help enhance the treatment’s effectiveness. Since this hydrating facial is gentle and non-invasive, there are minimal pre-treatment requirements, but a few simple steps can ensure you achieve the best results. Here’s how to get ready for your appointment:

Avoid Excessive Sun Exposure

Limit sun exposure and avoid tanning for at least 24 hours before your appointment. Sunburned or irritated skin may be more sensitive during the treatment, so protecting your skin will help ensure a comfortable experience.

Skip Harsh Exfoliants & Active Ingredients

Refrain from using strong exfoliants, retinoids, or harsh acids (such as glycolic or salicylic acid) for at least 24 to 48 hours before your facial. These ingredients can make the skin more sensitive, and the facial already includes gentle exfoliation to renew your complexion.

Stay Hydrated

Drinking plenty of water before your facial appointment helps boost hydration levels, allowing your skin to fully absorb the moisturizing serums used during the facial. Well-hydrated skin responds better to treatments and enhances the facial’s long-lasting glow.

Remove Makeup Before Your Appointment

While your aesthetician will cleanse your skin as part of the facial, arriving with a makeup-free face allows the treatment to begin immediately. This ensures that no residual makeup or skincare products interfere with the cleansing and exfoliation process.

Inform Your Aesthetician About Skin Concerns

If you have specific skin conditions, allergies, or concerns, be sure to discuss them with your aesthetician before the treatment. This allows them to customize the facial to your needs and ensure the best possible results.

Plan for a Makeup-Free Day (If Possible)

While you can wear makeup after the treatment, many patients prefer to let their freshly treated skin breathe. Consider scheduling your facial, if possible, when you don’t need to apply makeup immediately.

What to Anticipate for Your Glamour Glow Facial

Knowing what to expect during your Glamour Glow Facial can help you feel more relaxed and prepared for your treatment. This non-invasive, multi-step facial is designed to cleanse, exfoliate, hydrate, and protect your skin, delivering immediate results without downtime. Here’s a step-by-step look at what you can anticipate during your appointment:

Consultation and Skin Assessment

Your aesthetician will begin by discussing your skincare concerns, goals, and any sensitivities you may have. This allows them to customize the facial to suit your skin’s unique needs, ensuring you get the best possible results.

Treatment

The treatment starts with a thorough cleanse to remove dirt, oil, and residual makeup. Next, gentle exfoliation helps slough away dead skin cells, leaving your complexion smooth and prepped for hydration.

Your aesthetician will perform painless extractions to clear out clogged pores and blackheads if needed. This step helps refine your skin’s texture and minimizes congestion without irritating it. A customized blend of moisturizing serums and antioxidants is applied to deeply hydrate and nourish the skin. This helps combat dryness, improve elasticity, and give your complexion a radiant, dewy glow.

What to Expect After Your Glamour Glow Facial

Glamour Glow Facial treatments require zero recovery time. The procedure takes 30 minutes, and you can begin to see improvements immediately.

Unlike other procedures, you won’t see any mild redness or swelling and can resume your daily routine as soon as your treatment is over. It’s a non-invasive procedure, so if you want to receive additional skincare treatments, you can without having to worry about potentially compounding side effects.

Post-Treatment Skincare: How to Maintain Your Glow

Your Glamour Glow Facial leaves your skin feeling refreshed, hydrated, and radiant—but maintaining that dewy skin requires proper aftercare. To maximize your results and keep your skin looking its best, follow these essential post-treatment skincare tips:

Hydrate for Long-Lasting Radiance

Hydration is key to locking in the benefits of your facial. Drink plenty of water to keep your skin plump and moisturized from the inside out. Pair this with a high-quality, hydrating moisturizer to seal in moisture and enhance your skin’s natural barrier.

Protect Your Skin with SPF 30+

After your treatment, your skin may be more sensitive to environmental stressors, especially UV rays. Wearing broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen daily helps prevent sun damage, premature aging, and hyperpigmentation, ensuring your fresh glow lasts. Sun exposure can impact your skin even on cloudy days, so don’t skip this step!

Avoid Harsh Products for 48 Hours

Your skin is in a renewed and delicate state post-facial, so it’s best to hold off on strong exfoliants, retinoids, acids (such as glycolic or salicylic acid), and other potent active ingredients for at least 48 hours. These products can be too harsh immediately after your facial, potentially causing irritation or sensitivity. Stick to gentle, soothing skincare to let your skin fully absorb the benefits of the treatment.

Follow a Gentle and Consistent Skincare Routine

A simple, hydrating routine will help maintain your results between facials. Cleanse your skin with a gentle, non-stripping cleanser, follow up with hydrating serums or lightweight oils, and finish with a moisturizer suited to your skin type. Keeping your routine minimal yet effective will prolong your glow and keep your skin looking refreshed until your next treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Glamour Glow Facial

How does this facial compare to microdermabrasion?

The Glamour Glow Facial focuses on deep hydration, gentle exfoliation, and antioxidant infusion to refresh and nourish the skin. Unlike microdermabrasion, which uses a mechanical exfoliation method that may be too harsh for some skin types, the Glamour Glow Facial is a more hydrating and non-abrasive alternative. 

Can you wear makeup after the treatment?

Since there’s no downtime, you can apply makeup immediately after your facial. However, many patients love how fresh their skin looks and prefer to go makeup-free for the day.

Can I combine this with other treatments?

Yes! The Glamour Glow Facial is non-invasive and safe to pair with other skincare treatments, such as chemical peels, microneedling, or laser therapies. Since it does not cause irritation or peeling, it can be used as a pre-treatment or follow-up to enhance the benefits of other cosmetic procedures. Your aesthetician can recommend the best treatment plan based on your skincare goals.

How Long Do the Results Last?

The Glamour Glow Facial delivers immediate improvements in hydration and skin texture, with a radiant glow lasting up to a week or longer. You’ll notice long-term benefits with regular treatments, including improved skin elasticity, fewer fine lines, and a more even complexion.

How often should you get a Glamour Glow Facial?

For the best results, many of our patients opt for a monthly treatment to maintain their skin’s hydration, clarity, and glow. However, your aesthetician can recommend a personalized schedule based on your goals.
