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.

I have had several facials at Glow with Dana and am highly impressed. She is a true professional and has a very intelligent, open way of explaining, discussing and recommending everything from treatment types to products. My oily skin tends to a lot of blocked pores and her product recommendations have been excellent in helping keep my oil levels more balanced and my pores smaller, less blocked and generally better behaved all around! Nothing but good things to say here and compared to other salons where facials are perhaps a bit ($20-$30) less money you get far more than your money's worth at Glow. Brava Dana!

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
