Editorial Review for Glow Skin Spa – by Katie Heffernan

In Short
Since 1999, this Upper East Side spa has been a labor of love, expanding from a tiny one-room operation to a six-room suite. But that doesn't mean it's outgrown its down-to-earth vibe--rather, the soothing blue relaxation lounge is more akin to your best girlfriend's living room and estheticians are easily mistaken for old friends (and for some clients, they are). Founder Jillian Wright's loyal following means she's booked out for months, but not to worry--she trains each of her staff in the ways of top-notch treatment.

it was great to finally find a place where they know a lot about your skin and the way it works! the facials are great and all girls spend time with you to figure out your needs. definitely if you want your skin to glow:) that is the place! one things that this place lacks is a relaxing spa atmosphere.... it's not like you come in, they give you a rope, slippers and you can sit on a couch, watch TV, drink fancy tea and listen to a good music on the background.... there are spas like that.. this one is more for actual results, if you have any concerns about your skin... i would say it's more medical approach, which i love!

Pros: great facials!

Cons: not very much of a spa experience

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

I am not a type of person to write review. I read them and make a decision to wander to go or not. But I can't resist not saying anything about my experiences with Glow Skin Spa. More like, it is my last resort . For years, I been suffering with acne. Until recently, my acne is just not behaving anymore. In addition, I have sensitive skin too. So I am very limited to what I can use. I believe I brought everything that is out there for my skin type. Spend over $500, still no results. I was very very frustrated. Until I read the reviews here and give this spa a try. I must say, I am so glad I did. The person who made my face all in balance and clear is the lovely Jaime Carson. She customize my facial and my at home regimen. She always tell me what she is doing during the facial. After 4 months, my skin is soooooooooooooooo much more clearer. The environment is great. Like there slogan. They can't wait to pamper you. And I must say. THEY DO PAMPER YOU.

Pros: GREAT SERVICES AND PRODUCTS!

Cons: NONE

Known for some of the best facials in the city, yet still low-key and friendly.  See the full editorial review.
