Get That Holiday Glow With a BB Glow Treatment

Eric McPherson • November 30, 2022

Makeup trends have come and gone, but keeping things simple and natural will always be a mainstay in the fashion and beauty world.


New cosmetic and spa treatments allow us to enhance our natural beauty, all while being immersed in a delightful, pampered experience.

The latest trend in the beauty sphere is BB glow treatments. But what is a BB glow treatment? Read to learn every detail about this exquisite semi-permanent makeup solution. 


What is a BB Glow facial treatment?


A BB glow facial is a semi-permanent skincare treatment applied to your face to give you a fresh new look on your complexion. The name itself comes from the makeup product BB cream, which is essentially a lighter, non-full coverage foundation type makeup that helps even out your skin tone. The BB glow treatment acts the same way in terms of coverage. 


Your skin is penetrated by means of contemporary laser technology. Along with putting the pigments in place, it also provides a number of other advantages that help to give your skin a healthy, youthful glow.


What are the benefits?


There are numerous BB glow treatment benefits. For one, the semi-permanent makeup treatment allows you to forgo the need to apply foundation, saving you money in the long run. This is perfect for anyone who is often busy and does not have the time to carefully apply makeup to the face. 


The facial treatment leaves you looking fresh and healthy as it evens out your skin tone. Anyone suffering from redness from rosacea, acne scar or other skin blemishes can benefit greatly from this treatment. The facial also helps with collagen production, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. BB glow facials can also help an individual feel more confident in themselves. 


What to expect during your BB glow facial session?


A couple of steps are taken to achieve beautiful BB glow results. First, your aesthetician will prep your skin by cleansing and exfoliating it.

She will then carefully colour-match your complexion in order to have a seamless and natural look. The products mimic the usual steps when applying regular makeup products to the face. You will have a primer, a blush, contour, concealer and the base foundation. In this case, these are all semi-permanent. 


She will then roll the microneedle tool over your face to blend the semi-permanent makeup. Afterwards, she will massage your face and apply a mask to rehydrate your skin. 


How long does treatment take?


The treatment takes about 2 hours to complete, depending on what you ask from your aesthetician. Afterwards, you are not allowed to get your face wet for 24 hours or wear makeup for the next 48 hours. After three days, you are left with beautiful glowing skin, which can last for several months due to the semi-permanence of the makeup. 


Expect a small amount of redness following treatment, which usually lasts one to two days. Peeling around the mouth and nose may also happen, especially in people with dry skin.


How many sessions are needed to see results?


After your first session, results will not last long compared to someone who has had several sessions. First-timers can expect results to last about a week before needing to return for a second appointment. After your third session, your results should last several months.
