Lindsay is the absolute best! I’ve struggled with excessive facial hair growth, acne, redness, and I have extremely sensitive skin. No matter what I tried throughout my life nothing worked. Since working with Lindsay my face has improved like crazy! Softer skin, acne is almost 100% gone, redness is pretty much nonexistent. Lindsay is so knowledgeable she set me up with the skincare and treatments I needed and I couldn’t be happier! Highly recommend Glo, the best aesthetician on the Sunshine Coast!
