Chemical peels have long been hailed as the secret to smoother, brighter, more even skin, but if you’ve ever been turned off by the idea of visible peeling, redness, or hiding indoors for days, we get it. That’s exactly why we created the No-Peel Chemical Peel Facial, a gentle, spa-grade exfoliating treatment that delivers all the glow, none of the drama.

This treatment is perfect for clients who want to smooth texture, refine pores, and even out tone without disrupting their schedule. Whether you're heading back to the office, to an event, or just living your day-to-day life, this peel fits in effortlessly. It’s skincare that works with your life, not around it.

A Gentle Reset for Skin That Feels a Bit “Off”

During the treatment, your esthetician will apply a light chemical exfoliant formulated to boost cell turnover without triggering visible flaking or irritation. You might feel a slight tingling or warm sensation, nothing intense, just enough to let you know something is happening.

And something is. Behind the scenes, dull and uneven surface cells are gently lifted away, encouraging smoother texture, tighter pores, and that lit-from-within glow. Some clients notice a light dryness or tightness in the days following the facial as the skin naturally renews itself, but there’s no downtime, no hiding, and no guesswork. Just fresh, radiant skin.


Who A Chemical Peel Is Perfect For

The No-Peel Chemical Peel is especially loved by first-time peel clients, busy professionals, and anyone looking for a soft-but-effective reset. It’s ideal if you’ve been feeling like your products aren’t absorbing as well, your skin’s texture feels a bit rougher than usual, or you simply want to maintain long-term skin clarity and glow.

This is also a great facial for those with acne-prone skin, early signs of aging, mild pigmentation, or dullness without needing anything aggressive or invasive. If your skin is compromised or ultra-sensitive, we may recommend a different service but for most skin types, this treatment is a no-brainer.


Post-Facial Glow Without the Guesswork

You’ll leave your session with skin that feels clean, refreshed, and instantly smoother. No peeling sheets. No scaly texture. Just results. Any mild redness or tightness typically resolves within a day and most clients don’t experience any visible flaking at all.

To keep your glow going, we recommend avoiding exfoliants, active ingredients like retinoids, and intense workouts or heat for about 48 hours post-treatment. Hydrating, barrier-supportive skincare and SPF are your skin’s best friends in the days following your facial. Trust us, your future self will thank you.



How Often Should You Get It?

This facial is designed to be repeated regularly, ideally once a month for maintenance or in a series of three to six sessions spaced four weeks apart if you’re working on targeted concerns like acne, pigmentation, or fine lines.

Because it’s so gentle, it also plays well with other treatments in your skincare plan. Many of our clients alternate this peel with Oxyderm facials, JetPeel, or hydration treatments for a holistic, results-driven approach to skincare that respects the skin barrier and builds results over time.


Want to Level It Up?

If you’re in the mood for something extra, we offer a number of curated add-ons to enhance your treatment, like LED light therapy for inflammation, lymphatic drainage to reduce puffiness, or a custom mask upgrade to amplify hydration. You can also pair the No-Peel Facial with microcurrent sculpting, nano infusion, or even dermaplaning for a refined finish. Your esthetician will recommend the best add-ons based on your skin’s needs.


One Final Note

The No-Peel Chemical Peel may be gentle, but it’s still a professional-grade exfoliation, so there are a few things we’ll ask before booking. This treatment isn’t suitable if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, have certain autoimmune conditions, or have recently used strong exfoliants or retinoids. As always, we’ll walk through your skincare history to make sure this facial is the perfect fit.



A Peel You Can Actually Plan Around

The best part? This facial doesn’t require a “recovery period.” You can go about your life while your skin quietly renews in the background. Think of it as a behind-the-scenes reboot with visible results that don’t ask you to cancel plans.



Book your No-Peel Chemical Peel Facial today and step back into your week with smoother, brighter, more refreshed skin with no peeling required.

As we step into 2026, GLOW Beauty Bar is excited to share something we've been working on behind the scenes: a refined rebrand launching this January.

This evolution isn't about change for the sake of change. It's about growth, clarity, and ensuring that every part of your experience—from the moment you book to the moment you leave glowing—reflects the level of care, expertise, and intention we bring to your skin.


Why We're Evolving

Over the past 11 years, GLOW Beauty Bar has grown alongside our clients. Your expectations have evolved, our standards have risen, and our approach to skincare has become even more intentional and results-driven. This rebrand is a natural next step—one that allows our brand identity and systems to fully align with who we've become and where we're going.

We believe great skincare isn't about trends or quick fixes. It's about consistency, education, personalization, and trust. Our refreshed brand better reflects that philosophy.


What's Changing

Beginning this January, you'll notice a refreshed look and feel across every GLOW touchpoint:

  • New brand colours that reflect a calm, elevated, and modern aesthetic

  • Updated team uniforms aligned with our refined brand identity

  • A brand-new website designed to be cleaner, easier to navigate, and more informative

  • A new booking system that simplifies scheduling and enhances your overall experience


While the look is evolving, what matters most is staying the same: results-driven treatments, personalized consultations, and exceptional care—always.


Same GLOW You Love, Just Elevated

This rebrand isn't about reinventing who we are; it's about accurately reflecting it. As our services, expertise, and standards have continued to grow, our systems and visual identity needed to grow with us. This refresh ensures that what you experience is fully aligned with the level of care you already know and trust.


Introducing Our New Booking System: Mangomint

As part of this upgrade, GLOW Beauty Bar is transitioning to new booking software called Mangomint starting January 1st.


Mangomint was chosen with your convenience, clarity, and care in mind. It allows us to create a smoother, more intuitive booking experience while supporting the high-touch, personalized service we're known for.

  • Refill your intake form

  • Re-enter your credit card information when booking

  • Faster, more intuitive booking – find your appointment in just a few clicks

  • Clear appointment confirmations – always know what's scheduled

New Year, Fresh Skin: January Skin Imaging for GLOW+ Members

A new year is the perfect time to check in with your skin. This January, GLOW Beauty Bar is offering New Year Skin Imaging, treatment plan and skincare updates exclusively to GLOW+ Members.


Skin imaging is one of the most powerful tools we use to truly understand what's happening beneath the surface. It allows us to move beyond guesswork, track progress over time, and create a treatment plan that's uniquely yours.


What Is Skin Imaging?

Our advanced skin imaging technology captures detailed images of your skin, highlighting concerns such as:

  • Congestion and pore activity

  • Sun damage and pigmentation

  • Fine lines and texture

  • Redness and inflammation

  • Overall skin health and aging patterns


This gives both you and your aesthetician a clear, visual understanding of your skin—beyond what's visible to the naked eye.


Why January Skin Imaging Matters

January skin imaging sets the foundation for the entire year ahead. After the stressors of the holidays, seasonal changes, and colder weather, your skin may be showing signs you're not even aware of yet.


By starting the year with skin imaging, we can:

  • Establish a clear baseline for your skin in 2026

  • Set realistic, personalized skin goals

  • Adjust treatments and home care with precision

  • Track meaningful progress throughout the year


It's not about doing more—it's about doing what's right for your skin.


Offered Only Twice a Year: January & July

Beyond your initial consultation, skin imaging is offered exclusively in January and July to GLOW+ Members. This timing is intentional:

  • January allows us to assess post-holiday and winter skin

  • July lets us evaluate sun exposure, heat, and mid-year progress


Limiting imaging to these two points ensures we're tracking true, long-term changes—not temporary fluctuations—so your results are accurate, measurable, and meaningful.


How to Book

Skin imaging can be added to any January appointment. To schedule:

  1. Book your treatment as usual

  2. Let our front desk team know you'd like to add skin imaging (an additional 15 minutes)


Availability is limited. Once January ends, skin imaging check-ins won't be offered again until July. We encourage members to book early.


What Makes GLOW Different

At GLOW Beauty Bar, we don't chase trends—we build plans. We don't guess—we track. And we don't rush—we personalize.


Our approach combines advanced technology, expert analysis, and intentional timing to deliver results you can see and trust. Every system we choose, every update we make, and every service we offer is rooted in our core values: integrity, excellence, growth, results, teamwork, and wellbeing.


What This Means for You

  • Less friction, more ease

  • Clear guidance instead of overwhelm

  • Personalized plans backed by data

  • Confidence knowing your skin is being cared for intentionally


This rebrand and these updates aren't just cosmetic—they're structural. They support better outcomes, stronger consistency, and a more elevated experience at every visit.


Thank You for Growing With Us

We are deeply grateful for the trust you place in us and for being part of the GLOW community. This rebrand marks an exciting new chapter, and we're honored to have you with us as we continue to grow with intention.


Thank you for trusting us with your skin, your self-care, and your time. We can't wait to welcome you into this elevated version of GLOW Beauty Bar in January 2026.


Looking for brighter, clearer skin without the downtime? Photo Infusion is a next-generation hybrid facial that merges two of our most popular treatments, JetPeel and Photo Facial, into one powerful, non-invasive session. By combining lymphatic stimulation, serum infusion, and intense pulsed light (IPL), this service targets hydration, pigmentation, redness, and early aging in one go. It’s the ideal treatment when you want results that are both instant and cumulative: plump, radiant skin today, with continued improvements in tone, clarity, and texture over the next several weeks.

What to Expect from the Process Your treatment begins in one of our private rooms with IPL to correct uneven pigmentation, reduce redness, and improve skin texture. The light pulses may feel like a warm flick against the skin, followed by a cooling JetPeel finish that soothes and calms. You’ll leave feeling refreshed, hydrated, and noticeably brighter. Redness may occur briefly, and pigmentation spots may temporarily darken, but these are all signs the treatment is working.

Who This Treatment Is For  Photo Infusion is ideal for clients who are:

  • Women and men of all skin types (Fitzpatrick I–V)

  • Clients dealing with acne, pigmentation, or vascular concerns

  • Anyone looking for visible results with less downtime

Real Correction, Not Just Glow Photo Infusion doesn’t just give you a superficial radiance, it actively improves the health and appearance of your skin over time. IPL targets underlying vascular and pigmented lesions while stimulating collagen production. Meanwhile, JetPeel delivers potent serums deep into the dermis to hydrate and de-puff. Together, they work synergistically to calm inflammation, brighten dull skin, improve elasticity, and smooth out early fine lines. The best part? You’ll notice instant hydration and glow, with continued improvement over the next 7–10 days.

When and How Often? This treatment is most popular during the fall, winter, and early spring months, when sun exposure is easier to control. However, it can be performed year-round with the right sun precautions. Most clients benefit from a series of 3–6 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart. For long-term maintenance, we recommend returning every 2–3 months, or as part of a seasonal skin reset.

Important Aftercare Reminders

  • Avoid sun exposure, heat, and exercise for 48 hours

  • Do not wash your face until the next morning

  • Use mineral-based SPF daily (zinc or titanium oxide)

  • Pause all actives (retinoids, acids, exfoliants) for 3–5 days

  • Stick to gentle, hydrating skincare products

  • Change your pillowcase and sanitize makeup brushes

  • Do not pick at pigmented lesions

Want to Elevate the Results? While Photo Infusion stands strong on its own, you can amplify your outcome by pairing it with LED Light Therapy, Dermaplaning, or Microcurrent. Your aesthetician may also suggest a Neck & Chest treatment to extend the results beyond the face.

A Final Word Photo Infusion is one of our most advanced multitasking facials, offering deep hydration, pigment correction, and texture refinement in one session. It’s perfect for those who want visible, lasting results without needles, peeling, or recovery time. Whether you’re prepping for an event or investing in long-term skin health, this hybrid treatment delivers both instant satisfaction and progressive skin transformation.


Ready to see the light? Book your Photo Infusion facial at GLOW today and discover what modern skin correction can feel like.
