We will help you determine your skin type at your consultation. But, there are four basic types: normal, oily, dry, and combination. The best way to get an idea is to wash your face with a gentle cleanser, pat it dry, and then wait an hour. If your skin is tight after an hour, you have dry skin. If your t-zone is shiny but your cheeks are tight, you have combination skin. If you have a shine on your cheeks and t-zone, you have oily skin. If you have a slight shine to just your T-zone, you have normal skin.

Glo2Facial isn’t your average fluff-and-buff facial. This is a next-gen, science-backed treatment that hits skin from every angle—oxygenation, exfoliation, and deep infusion—all in one powerhouse session. No downtime, no BS, just real results.
We’re talking customized serums, tailored tech, and a three-step protocol that gets deep into your skin’s business—boosting collagen, dialing up hydration, and kicking dullness to the curb. Whether you’re battling breakouts, chasing glow, or fighting fine lines, Glo2Facial meets your skin exactly where it is and levels it up.
It’s clinical-grade skincare with a rebel edge—and your skin’s about to get addicted.
THE 3 POWER MOVES OF THE GLO2FACIAL
Oxfoliation™
This is where the magic starts. We’re talking gentle exfoliation meets oxygenation, all triggered by a custom Glo2 capsule reacting on your skin. It kicks up blood flow, boosts skin metabolism, and gets your cells breathing like they just hit a reset button. Translation? Your skin’s lit—inside and out.
LUX Ultrasound
Next up: we open the gates. This step uses low-frequency ultrasound to vibe your skin open, creating microchannels that let all the good stuff soak in deeper and hit harder. Think clinical-grade penetration without needles. Skin barrier? Access granted.
Detox Massage
We finish with a lymphatic massage that drains puff, de-stresses skin, and sculpts like a pro. It’s not just relaxing—it’s functional. We’re flushing toxins, reducing inflammation, and giving your face that post-facial snap. Snatched, soothed, and glowing.
THE GLO2 serums
refine
Best for: Mature skin, visible fine lines, and uneven texture.
Refine is your skin’s secret weapon against breakouts, oil overload, and texture drama. This clinical-grade serum is stacked with salicylic acid and retinyl palmitate—translation: it dives deep to unclog pores, speed up cell turnover, and crush congestion before it even starts. Oily, acne-prone, or just feeling a little chaotic? Refine is your go-to.
Featuring ingredients such as red algae, retinoid derivatives, and peptides, Refine focuses on improving the appearance of texture, fine lines, and overall skin smoothness.
Think a little extra polish for skin that has stories to tell.
hydrate
Best for: Dry, dehydrated, tight, or dull skin.
Hydrate is like an IV drip for your face—loaded with hyaluronic & lactobionic acid, niacinamine, peptides, and antioxidants like blue spirulina, to plump, smooth, and flood your skin with serious moisture. This isn’t surface-level hydration—it’s deep, dewy, clinical-level skin therapy that hits different. Dry, tight, or just feeling a little “meh”? Hydrate brings the bounce back. It rebuilds your barrier, locks in glow, and leaves your skin looking lit from within—no filter required.
Because thirsty skin deserves better than another iced coffee.
brighten
Best for: Dullness, uneven skin tone, and the appearance of dark spots.
Brighten is your skin’s wake-up call. Loaded with vitamin C, kojic acid, and botanical boosters, this serum targets dark spots, dullness, and uneven tone like it’s on a mission—because it is. We’re talking radiance with a vengeance. Brighten doesn’t just lighten hyperpigmentation—it revives tired, lackluster skin and leaves you with a glow that says “I drink water and mind my business” (even if you don’t)
Perfect when your skin looks like it could use a little sunshine, minus the UV damage.
EXOFIRM
Best for: Mature skin, visible fine lines, reduced elasticity, dryness, and dullness.
ExoFirm brings some serious skincare sophistication to the party. Featuring plant derived CICA exosomes, 24K gold, and peptides, this advanced customization is designed to support the skin’s natural renewal processes, improve the appearance of firmness and elasticity, and promote a smoother, more hydrated complexion.
Think luxury skincare meets regenerative inspired science. Because your skin deserves the gold treatment, literally.
Protect
Best for: Dry, environmentally stressed, sensitive feeling skin.
Protect is your skin’s ride-or-die defense squad. Packed with ceramides, turmeric, and mangosteen this serum shields against stressors like pollution, blue light, and whatever else life throws at your face. Think of it as armor for your glow—calming inflammation, strengthening your barrier, and keeping skin balanced, even when everything else isn’t. Sensitive? Reactive? Just straight-up over it? Protect steps in, cools it down, and keeps it locked in.
And let’s be serious, for us Chicago city dwellers, this one makes a lot of sense. Between the brutal winter wind, dry indoor heat, pollution, and our city’s unpredictable weather, our skin deals with plenty.
Consider Protect your skin’s personal bodyguard, because surviving a Chicago winter is hard enough without your face joining the fight.
Smooth
Best for: Rough texture, blemishes, and visibly uneven skin.
Smooth is your skin’s texture-taming, line-blurring fixer. Powered by lactic acid, glycolic acid, and botanical softeners, this serum gently exfoliates and resurfaces—no irritation, just transformation. Bumpy? Blotchy? Fine lines trying to crash the party? Smooth sands it all down—refining pores, boosting glow, and leaving skin crazy-soft to the touch. It’s like a gentle peel and a smoothing filter had a baby—with clinical credentials.
Smooth targets surface irregularities and helps improve the appearance of congested or textured skin.
Because your skin should feel as good as it looks.
Energize
Best for: Tired, puffy, and lackluster skin.
Energize is a metabolic jolt for tired, sluggish skin. Infused with caffeine, peptides, and powerhouse antioxidants, this serum boosts circulation, recharges cellular energy, and wakes your face the hell up. Dull skin? Puffy vibes? That drained, post-long-week look? Energize gets in there and flips the switch—reviving tone, tightening under-eyes, and giving your complexion a fresh, oxygen-fueled kick. It’s like espresso for your skin—fast, focused, and fierce.
Energize helps refresh the appearance of fatigued skin and support a smoother, more awakened look.
For those mornings when your face is telling everyone about last night’s questionable sleep schedule.
CLARIFY
Best for: Oily skin, acne prone skin, congestion, and enlarged looking pores.
Featuring bamboo charcoal, lactic acid, and willow bark, Clarify helps remove surface impurities, gently exfoliate, balance excess oil, and improve the appearance of congested skin. It also supports a smoother, calmer looking complexion without stripping away essential moisture.
Think of it as a reset button for pores that have been making questionable life decisions.

Questions? We've Got The Answers
The lymphatic system is part of the immune system. White blood cells inside the lymph nodes (lymphocytes) fight viruses and bacteria in your body. Lymph fluid containing these foreign cells travels through the lymph vessels to be filtered through lymph nodes and drained into the bloodstream. This is called lymphatic drainage. Our body naturally drains lymph vessels, but when lymph fluid doesn’t drain, it can build up and cause puffiness and swelling.
Nope! You can get the Glo2Facial in Lincoln Park anywhere on the body, as well.
