Blush & Glow Skin Care & Waxing

Amazing experience every time!!! Michelle is funny, kind, and fabulous at her job. I would never go anywhere else. Happy 5 year anniversary Blush and Glow.

I’ve had two great estheticians that I have gone to in the past. I’ve moved twice so both are very far from me. I have been driving from Schaumburg to River North or Joliet just to get a wax, so thank God for Unilocal.You just can’t trust your crotch with anyone. That’s how I learned about Blush & Glow. I had high expectations before my appointment because of the great Unilocal reviews, and Michelle still managed to surpass those expectations. Normally when I get a wax I feel like the pain is equivalent to getting a tattoo or about half as painful as childbirth, but not here. Michelle made getting a wax a pleasant experience. She is soooo sweet and kind. She made me feel like a longtime customer. I definitely recommend Blush & Glow. 10 Star AAA++ Rating!

Michelle is AWESOME. The reviews for this place is definitely on point. I am a big fan of great customer service and Michelle provides 100% customer satisfaction and does EXCELLENT work! I recommend this place to everyone… I won’t get my lashes done anywhere else.

I love getting my eyelash extensions done by Michelle at Blush & Glow.
The salon is meticulously clean, beautifully decorated and Michelle is wonderful.
I highly recommend Blush & Glow!

Have been going here a year and a half pretty consistently for eyebrow waxing. Michelle is awesome and now I won’t trust anyone else to touch my eyebrows! Definitely recommend her place! It’s cozy and warm and she’s so friendly. She’s great at remembering her clients and keeping up with their lives and what’s going on with them. She’ll make you feel like you’re hanging out with a friend while you’re there each time!

So I finally got time today to getting around to writing this review!!! What can I say about Michelle! She amazing, lets be honest my first appointment with her for a Brazilian I was nervous. Taking my pants off for a stranger!!! Whhhattt? Haha but she made the experience more comfortable, just because she is so easy to talk to! I now go in every month for my Brazilian (ladies if you can afford to do it I would) While a Brazilian can be painful if you keep up with it, it will become less of a hassle! (The beauty queen Michelle taught me that)
I highly recommend her! Great personality and her spa is clean and welcoming! Ladies this is the spot to go!!! She is fun and sassy, so if you have a waxer ditch them and come to Michelle ;) If you don’t have a waxer book your appointment now!

Beautiful space! Smells great, CLEAN and Michelle is a living doll! And comedian. My services are always hilarious and professional. Book in advance, she’s hard to get into but worth the wait. :-)

Thanks to the Unilocalers who helped me find Blush & Glow. Went for a full leg wax yesterday. Wow! Michelle is everything she is touted to be. The boutique is very clean, and beautifully decorated. And, she is both competent and quick. I generally delay getting waxing done because it takes so long. This time, I scheduled a follow up appointment for next month before leaving the salon.
The prices are quite reasonable, but most importantly the work is impeccable.
Blush and Glow is my new skin care resource.

Michelle is amazingly talented! I go to her for my brow wax and when I leave, she’s made me love my eyebrows again!

Blush and Glow is a beautiful boutique spa with an effective product line and a meticulous therapist. My dry and dehydrated skin was «glowing» and I «blushed» when I saw the immediate and lasting results! With over 10 years in the skin care industry, Michelle will make you feel good on the inside and look fabulous on the out! Caution: book your appointment early, this boutique books up fast!

I have been a ‘Blusher’ since Blush and Glow’s opening and have probably had every service offered. I echo all the other reviews. Blush and Glow is warm, inviting and very clean. Michelle is professional, funny and does a great job! What has brought me to write this review is the fact that I absolutely LOVE the new online booking system. I downloaded the Vagaro App for Iphone and booking an appointment has NEVER been easier!!! I booked my appointment in less than a minute while walking from the parking garage to my building this morning AND was able to add it to my personal calendar. Thanks Michelle for making the TOTAL experience wonderful!

I love this place. Michelle makes you feel so relaxed and right at home. She did an amazing job and has a great personality! You will not regret your visit. I will come here whenever I am in Illinois!

Blush and Glow is a fantastic little gem I found through Unilocal!Thank you Unilocalers!
Michelle is professional, fun, and super sweet! She walks you through the process and makes sure you know what she’s doing every step of the way. She made me feel totally comfortable from my first appointment with her. I’ve had 4 brazilian waxes with her and I’m going in for my 5^th this weekend. I’ve never left unsatisfied.
The shop is adorable very girly and makes you feel right at home. Every single little nook and cranny in this place is clean, from the baseboards to the light fixtures which tells me she keeps her tools and wax clean!
She uses a super convenient online booking system. They even have an app where you can book new appointments and view past appointments.
I’d 100% recommend Blush and Glow to anyone for all their waxing needs.

Hands down, the best. Michelle knows more about my skin than i do. She is helping me get my face looking its best for my wedding, and it is amazing how much she has helped in a short time! If you have any big event on the horizon where you need to look your best, you should go see Michelle at Blush and Glow NOW!

First of all Michelle is the greatest.
I’ve been going to her for about 8 months now and only have positive things to say. I honestly look forward to going to get my «full leg w/​blush» every month.
She is hilarious, and makes you feel so comfortable every step of the way.
That atmosphere is so warm and inviting. It also impeccably clean (even in the winter — extra kudos)
Most importantly… She is terrific at her job, I’ve never had any issues during or after my waxing experiences. I had read tons of terrible waxing experiences before I went in for the first time. And Blush & Glow dismissed them immediately. The pain is completely tolerable. And I can hardly focus on it anyways with us laughing and talking :)

After contemplating eyelash extensions for a long time I decided to try them out. I researched many of the salons (not a lot to choose from) here in the western suburbs. I came across Michelle’s salon on Unilocal.Booking my appointment was quick and I got into her salon the following week. Her salon is beautiful and she goes out of her way to make you feel at home. Coffee and snacks in the waiting room along with great magazines and a burning fireplace on the flat screen;-)
Michelle spent 2 hours working on my lashes. In that time we had great conversation and listened to great music. She is so much fun and made me feel so relaxed. After my appointment was over I couldn’t believe how great my lashes looked! Wow!!! I recently went for my fill in and my experience again was suburb! Paying for my service on her ipad made tipping easy and efficient. I am so glad I found this great salon!

Michelle is amazing! I was so nervous to get my first brazilian wax, but she made me comfortable and did a wonderful job. She is hilarious – I was laughing so hard that I couldn’t believe how quickly it was over. I have since become a regular and I would recommend Blush & Glow to anyone for waxing.
Now I have to make an appointment for a facial! :)

I’ve waxed almost exclusively for at least 15 years and have never had a brazilian. I mean, why do more than you have to? But I do get a «regular» bikini wax, and pretty much everything else waxed too. I was heartbroken to relinquish my artistic friend and aesthetician Ivana at Elizabeth Arden downtown, whom I’ve gone to for waxing regularly since 2001, but I can’t make the long trip downtown for a wax now that I’m in the burbs with a young child.
I found Michelle thanks to all you Unilocalers and can’t recommend her enough! I love her place — great atmosphere — and although she uses the strip waxing, which I generally think is incredibly painful, she makes it as painless as possible! Her strips are soft bedsheets that she pre-​cuts to size, not the cheap paper strips used in many salons. She is meticulous, and hilarious, and so kind! I also love the shaping she did on my brows. I will definitely be making the more manageable trip to Glen Ellyn on a regular basis for her services.

I’ve been accustomed to going into the city for waxes but after living in the burbs for about a year, it really isn’t worth the hassle or the stress of driving into the city for a quick wax even if it is from time to time. I found Blush and Glow through the Unilocal reviews and decided to give it a try. I love this place and will probably make it my go-​to spot going forward.
I’ve been to a LOT of waxing places throughout my moves and will say this is probably the cutest place. Michelle does a great job at giving her clients a warm and classy atmosphere. It’s completely glam. Michelle is also really skilled at what she does. I am 9 months pregnant and can pretty much pop any day now but Michelle is a pro and made my whole experience quick and as painless as possible. The check out experience is also quick too and I was in and out within 20 minutes.
So for anyone who is looking for a waxing experience like the city, this place is the place to go!

After a long-​term relationship with my old waxing place came to an end, I’ve been hunting for a new go-​to. I’ve found it! Blush & Glow is a wonderful small business owned by the fabulous Michelle.
Scheduling: You can schedule by phone or online. I used her online scheduling service and found it easy and convenient. Additionally, she had loads of availability, — which I’ve had issues with at city spas. Michelle went above and beyond by contacting me by email when she noticed that I had two appointments scheduled within a week of each other. I simply hadn’t had a chance to cancel one yet but she beat me to the punch. Really attentive customer service! You can also opt for email and text reminders, which are a nice bonus.
One note on the online system: there should be a way to cancel or change your appointment online. I had put off changing my appointment because it required a phone call.
Location: Blush & Glow is located a block or two from the train station in downtown Glen Ellyn. There is a sign on the outside of the building, which helps first-​time visitors. I easily found free street parking within 5 feet of the door.
Space: The space itself is small without seeming claustrophobic. Michelle greeted me immediately and made me feel welcome and at ease. There was one other client waiting, and Michelle greeted her by first name. Impressive. They have a Keurig machine in the reception area too, — nice touch. My wait was less than 5 minutes so I didn’t indulge in a K-​cup. The treatment room was cheerfully and tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean. I was impressed by the cushioned treatment bed — it’s much nicer than your average waxing table. Think massage at a spa.
Service: I had a «full blush», which is Wax & Glow’s terminology for a Brazilian. Michelle used soft wax and worked quickly. I felt less pain than I have experienced at other spas, and the end result was high quality. I can see how a first-​time waxer would be very comfortable with Michelle, — she is professional, quick, and careful, but very warm and friendly.
Overall: With 20% tip, my trip cost me $ 66 (all payable via credit card). Considering the money I saved by not paying for a cab or parking or public transportation in the city, this is a pretty competitive price. Michelle mentioned that she is hoping to start up a frequent waxer program in the New Year, which will make the cost even more reasonable. I’m a huge fan of this business and will go here from now on. Michelle deserves 5 stars for her well-​run boutique.
