She was highly detailed in color mixing as well as application and the result was a natural looking tan that lasted over a week. The smell was barely noticeable and very comfortable on my skin. With other spray tans it has been nearly impossible not to jump in the shower to get rid of the smell and tacky feeling. This one was great from start to finish. I highly recommend Glow Giver Gal!

While using my last session,…read morean employee named Caleb offered to upgrade me to a Level 1 bed free of charge if I purchased 100 points for $275 to use in the future. I agreed. Now, a year later, the owner, Ann, is telling me I'm missing 10 points and claiming the upgrade was not free. She initially tried to blame it on a separate incident where my tanning bed shut off within the first 10 seconds, and I had to call the front desk to restart it. Apparently, that was documented as two sessions in one day, which makes no sense. It's really disappointing to hear that an employee's word means nothing, even after I explained the situation. I took note of every session I went, who checked me in and how many point I was suppose to have left . This is not how you run a business by backtracking on what was promised and refusing to stand by your staff's word.

Connie C. I visited Palm Desert two weeks ago and happened upon The Skin Event. After meeting and talking with the owner, Ruth, I decided to get a facial. I let them recommend the treatment best for my skin. I can truthfully say this was the most relaxing treatment I have ever received (in fact, I fell asleep during the treatment). My skin looked 100% better and felt tighter and so smooth. I plan on relocating to California and will definitely set up regular appointments with The Skin Event to take full advantage of the series of treatments to achieve the best skin possible. read more

Hmm, well after meditating for 15 years and getting 2/3 through the "intake form" ...the honest…read morereads here are "extremely regimented", "stifling in approach" and "exquisite need to control my environment and outcome". The intake form ultimately tapped me out, turned me off -- sent the dinero in another direction. Ask me about my skin ? Sun and cleansing practices ? Sure. Allergies ? Yeah, to a certain extent. But H to the E to the L to the no I'm not listing every single allergy I have. And as an intuitive / energetic offering...this is a bit much. If you're intuitive enough to disallow cell phones for crystal health -- listing every single allergy is unnecessary overkill. Never been asked before, never had a reaction in 30 years of facials...and allergic to tons. You know what a client's got going on if you're reading energy, and it's hard to believe any offending products are even used at this joint. For instance, should I really sit here and list every opioid I've ever had an allergic reaction to, even if it's completely irrelevant...or just pass up this maze and get that uber relaxing facial I'm after ? "Would you agree that consistency is key" ? Sure -- and so is self-love, self-care, nurturance and r&r. The summary of this paragraph is essentially "I'm really not for travelers, one-offs or a rejuvenating day at the spa excursions. I want and need you to be committed to myself and my business -- and I'm strongly urging you to agree to come every 4 weeks." Honestly, maybe a subscribers only site would be the best approach for you. "Please take a photo of your skincare" ...Um, okay...But on the real, I don't think an energy healer needs all this clutter around. No, you don't "need" to see it regimented by text message. You think you need to see it, but eliminate the thinking part and true achievement will occur. "Please indicate your understanding"...of my elongated voice. I'm sorry -- wait in my car for 15 minutes in the desert, and text you to come in ? For real ? Don't you think desert life feels oppressed by all that engine idling ? Or have the humans transitioned everyone to EMF overload from electric cars ? Wowzers. I'm sympathetic to covid victims, but state that you are if that's what this paragraph's about. Because post-pandemic it's wayyyy controlling, unless you yourself are immune compromised or you're actively crafting a space for those who are. Schedule a 15 minute appointment to re-up the products I should never stray from, after committing to you ?? And you'll see if you can fit me in to pick them up ??! Good lord girl. I'm about to pay YOU -- are you trying to pay me for those 15 in MY schedule ? Ahem...if your life made you a rich kid on El Paseo -- maybe just install a foyer with an atm and a product vending machine, so as not to be interrupted. Or there's this handy thing called a receptionist... "Required reading" ? Um, okay... "Late arrival policy". Ok...hold up, 10 minutes late auto-cancels the sesh and you get all my skrill and I get nada ? Whaaaaat ? For rill ? In one of the most populous regions of the u.s. this is a little hanal...unforeseen traffic occurrences and fluid shifts in matter are laws of physics. How bout you improvise there magic actress, and give me those remaining 50 minutes I paid for ? "15 minutes before" Um..okay. But do you pay me for those 15 minutes of mine ? Cough it up girl. "Duty to Inform" Hmmm...kind of you. But heads up : "respects your privacy" and "requests full disclosure" is an oxymoronic juxtaposition of polarities, bordering on mutually exclusive phenomena. What about this -- trim the fat and just ask for esthetics-relevant allergies ? Simple...It's a straight up facial already free of oppressive ingredients to its atmosphere. "Cancellation Policy" Mmm, okay. But I'm curious -- why does your life necessitate doubled importance than 98% of other service providers, who require 24 hours ? "Service Upkeep Policy" Yikes, omit this one. You can't control a person's life and fluid / flowing circumstances to this extent... it's just icky, and yes -- leaves an air of exclusivity all over. As if to say : Come to me and only me and if something changes, give me the comprehensive download immediately. Heads up...lots and lots of people come to get a facial just to RELAX. "Children & Guests" ...Ok -- you sure you don't want me to drop off that firstborn ? "Photos" Hmm...like you take my photo before and after with or without choice ? It doesn't specify, except to decline social media. As a photo sensitive -- I would decline all photos. They're a privacy red flag and encroachment on personal property and consciousness boundaries. "Please look for email AND text message"... Hm. So you get to unplug me -- but how about I unplug you ? The intake form maxed the thinking mind, tensed all muscles in the neck, and made me send her to laughter yoga.
