Before Sophie found GLOW Beauty Bar, her skincare routine looked... familiar. Like many busy professionals juggling meetings, Pilates, and weekend errands at Sherway, she did her best but even the most glow-obsessed among us can fall into habits that hold our skin back.
Since starting her personalized treatment plan at GLOW, Sophie’s skin (and confidence) has completely transformed. Here are 3 things she no longer does and what she’s doing instead:
❌ Mistake #1: Skipping SPF Unless It’s “Sunny”What she used to think: “If it’s cloudy or I’m just working from home, I don’t really need sunscreen, right?”
What she knows now: UV rays don’t take days off. They come through clouds, windows, and compromise the progress made from treatments and skincare.
What changed: Her GLOW aesthetician helped her understand that SPF isn’t just for the beach, it’s a daily essential. Now, Sophie applies her medical-grade sunscreen every morning without question. It protects her skin, her results, and brings a new layer of confidence to her day
❌ Mistake #2: Falling Asleep Without Washing Her FaceWhat she used to think: “I’m exhausted. A makeup wipe is good enough.”
What she knows now: Skin does its best work overnight but only when it’s clean. Wipes don’t actually cleanse; they leave residue behind and block skin from renewing properly.
What changed: Now, Sophie treats her evening cleanse as a reset. She uses a botanical cleansing oil followed by a gentle second cleanser, both recommended by her GLOW aesthetician. It’s become a calming part of her routine, a quiet moment of joy to end the day.
❌ Mistake #3: Chasing Trends Instead of ConsistencyWhat she used to think: “If this serum went viral on TikTok, it has to work, right?”
What she knows now: Trendy products don’t equal tailored care. Her skin needs consistency, not chaos.
What changed: With a customized treatment plan built just for her, Sophie now follows a skincare routine that’s rooted in real results. No more guesswork, just a clear path to glowing, healthy skin. The joy is in knowing exactly what works for her.
Sophie’s Glow Advice? “Stop guessing. Let the pros take the wheel. My skin has never looked better, and I feel more confident showing up in every area of my life, bare-faced and bold!”
