The Parlour Room is dedicated to helping you look and feel your best. While all our recommendations are curated by our team of in-house experts we may also earn an affiliate commission if you choose to purchase through our links.

This April, we collaborated with GLOW LAB, a natural skin care brand from New Zealand, to provide media and influencers with a luxurious skin and body treatment at SELF. GLOW LAB’s innovative skincare line brings you an accessible and highly efficient solution for pampering yourself with a rejuvenating facial in the comfort of your own home!

Our guests were greeted by our exceptional team of SELF therapists and treated to a personalized Autumn Glow-Up experience. Each guest received pampering with Glow Lab’s skin, hair, and body products, which our team tailored to their individual needs. You too can experience your own Autumn Glow-Up by following our step-by-step guide. We were also lucky enough to catch up with head chemist, Gillian Worth, on all things GLOW LAB. Read below to find out more.

The Autumn Glow Up

 

GLOW LAB uses ingredients sourced from nature and combines them with scientifically proven ingredients to create effective and natural products. Additionally, their skincare line is pH balanced and dermatologically tested, making it suitable for all skin types.

  1. Begin your skincare routine with GLOW LAB’s Gel Cleanser for a thorough double cleanse. Enriched with vitamin C and glycerin, it effectively removes impurities and leaves your skin feeling fresh and rejuvenated.

  2. Next, use GLOW LAB’s Brightening Exfoliator to gently buff away dead skin cells and reveal a radiant complexion. Formulated with Natural Rosehip Seed, this exfoliator is gentle on the skin yet effective in promoting a smoother and brighter complexion.

  3. Follow up with a 5-minute facial massage using circular motions and working upwards to stimulate blood flow and promote a healthy glow.

  4. Next, Indulge in a deeply hydrating Hydrating Sheet Mask, formulated with active ingredients to create supple and glowing skin. Leave it on for 10 minutes or more for optimal results.

  5. Give your arms and feet a good scrub with GLOW LAB’s Body Scrub, followed by a hot towel to remove any excess product. Then, apply GLOW LAB’s Body Lotion, a luxurious blend of Shea Butter, Macadamia, Coconut, and Sweet Almond Oil to nourish and hydrate your skin.

  6. Moving back to the face, apply the replenishing GLOW LAB Eye Serum containing Vitamins C & E, Aloe Vera, and Glycerin to brighten and smooth the delicate eye area.

  7. Next, apply the Pro-collagen Plumping Facial Serum, a collagen-boosting serum enriched with peptides, glycerin, and witch-hazel to firm, smooth, and accelerate skin repair.

  8. Hydrate your skin with the GLOW LAB Facial Moisturiser, a lightweight daily moisturizer enriched with Macadamia and Rosehip Oil to provide long-lasting hydration.

  9. Take care of your hair and scalp with a relaxing Scalp Massage using the GLOW LAB Repairing Hair Mask. This powerful, multi-tasking keratin protection shield is suitable for all hair types and is enriched with Vitamin E, Shea Butter, Argan, and Coconut Oil.

  10. Finally, ensure that you finish your routine with your favourite SPF to protect your skin from harmful UV rays.

We were also lucky enough to catch up with head chemist Gillian Worth, on all things GLOW LAB.

1. We love your pro- collagen range, what is the importance of collagen in a skin care routine? 

Collagen, as we know, is a key protein that keeps our skin looking healthy and youthful however there are several factors that cause this protein to decline, including UV damage, and naturally, from ageing. With skin’s natural collagen production starting to decline from just 25 years of age, using skin care products that promote the skin’s production of collagen, helps to prevent and reduce skin degradation, and retain skin elasticity and moisture. Our Pro-Collagen Plumping Facial Serum helps to kick start collagen production and boost hyaluronic acid levels in your skin during the day, whilst the Pro-Collagen Plumping Night Cream works to repair skin and retain moisture while you sleep.

2. Going into winter, what are the top 3 Glow Lab products you’d recommend we use?

Our Rosehip Oil + Plus, is a skincare superhero! With cooler dry weather our skin tends to work harder at retaining moisture, and our hyaluronic acid levels tend to decline. Thankfully, this oil is boosted with Beracare BBA, a powerful ingredient that has been scientifically shown to increase levels of hyaluronic acid by up to 82% after 9 days of use! This beautifully scented oil also includes trusty Vitamin C that offers a brighter looking complexion and essential fatty acids and antioxidants that reduce unwanted signs of ageing.

The Glow Lab Vitamin C Night Cream is our moisture-boosting saviour and perfect if you’re looking to prep your skin for the cooler months and avoid dryings. This cream includes powerhouse natural ingredient, SuperOx-C™ (Kakadu Plum), a rich source of Vitamin C scientifically shown to increase skin luminosity by up to 30% in 30 days! Also, enriched with Vitamin E and the probiotic anti-ageing technology ProRenew Complex CLR™ to enhance skin renewal, for healthy and radiant looking skin.

With the dehydrating effects of summer on hair, including exposure to UV and chlorine, now is the perfect time to repair damage. Our Repairing Hair Mask is the perfect solution to reverse the drying effects and take control of your hair with a product designed to deeply nourish and repair. Boosted with FK RestoreTM Functional Keratin®, an active ingredient scientifically shown to reduce breakage by up to 80% and improve hair strength and prevent colour fade just to name a few. Further enriched with Vitamin E, Shea Butter, Argan and Coconut Oils to help create smooth, shiny hair. Yes please!
