The Protocol
Each step in the Glass Glow is designed to amplify the next. Dermaplaning creates the clean canvas. The enzyme peel refines it. Cupping sculpts and drains. The oxygen infusion delivers the active ingredients. The jelly mask seals everything in.
01
A surgical-grade blade removes the outermost layer of dead skin cells and vellus hair in a single pass. Skin is immediately smoother, and every ingredient applied afterward penetrates more effectively.
02
A gentle fruit-enzyme peel dissolves surface congestion, brightens uneven tone, and refines texture without the downtime of a chemical peel. Safe for all skin types, including sensitive.
03
Silicone cups create gentle suction to stimulate lymphatic drainage, improve microcirculation, and temporarily lift and firm the face. Reduces puffiness and creates a sculpted, defined finish.
04
Pressurized oxygen delivers the Hya10+ Complex — 10 molecular weights of hyaluronic acid — deep into the skin alongside skin-firming peptides, niacinamide, and genuine diamond powder. The result: a poreless, glass-skin finish.
05
A cooling vitamin-rich jelly mask seals in the treatment, reduces redness, and amplifies the luminosity of the oxygen infusion. Skin is visibly plump, smooth, and radiant when you leave.
What's Inside
Ten molecular weights of hyaluronic acid — from micro to macro — hydrate at every depth of the skin simultaneously. The result is a visible plumping effect that lasts for days.
Genuine diamond powder creates a light-diffusing effect that blurs imperfections and gives skin a glass-like luminosity. The same ingredient used in luxury skincare at a fraction of the price.
No peeling, no redness, no recovery. The Glass Glow is designed to be booked 2–5 days before your event — you leave looking like yourself, just better.
The oxygen infusion and diamond powder create a natural, camera-ready glow that reads as luminous — not shiny — in photos. Our most-requested pre-wedding and pre-event facial.
Dermaplaning removes the barrier that blocks product absorption. Every ingredient in the oxygen infusion penetrates more effectively because of this step — amplifying results significantly.
Cupping stimulates lymphatic drainage and microcirculation, reducing puffiness and creating a subtle lifting effect. Clients often notice a more defined jawline and cheekbones immediately after.
Who It's For
Pre-Wedding & Pre-Event
The Glass Glow is our most-requested pre-event facial. Book 2–5 days before your wedding, photoshoot, or event for peak luminosity with zero risk of downtime.
Dull or Dehydrated Skin
If your skin looks flat, tired, or lacks radiance, the combination of dermaplaning, enzyme peel, and oxygen infusion delivers an immediate, visible transformation.
Fine Lines and Texture
Dermaplaning and the Hya10+ Complex work together to smooth fine lines and refine texture in a single session — no downtime, no peeling.
Sensitive Skin
Unlike chemical peels or microneedling, the Glass Glow uses gentle enzymatic exfoliation and oxygen infusion — making it suitable for sensitive skin types that cannot tolerate more aggressive treatments.

Why Banyan & Bamboo
The Glass Glow Oxygen Facial was developed at Banyan & Bamboo as a response to one consistent client request: a facial that delivers visible, lasting results without any risk of downtime before an important event. It is our most-requested pre-wedding and pre-event treatment.
Every Glass Glow is performed by a licensed esthetician trained in the full protocol — from the dermaplaning technique to the oxygen infusion pressure settings. We do not rush this treatment. The 80-minute session is designed to deliver a complete transformation, not a quick refresh.
Mineral buildup from Austin's hard municipal water and relentless summer heat accelerate pore congestion and dehydration faster than most at-home routines can address. The Glass Glow's oxygen infusion and deep exfoliation protocol is specifically effective at reversing this kind of environmental accumulation, restoring clarity and hydration that Austin's climate actively works against.

Client Reviews
“Banyan & Bamboo offers the most transformative facial experience I've ever had. From the moment you step inside, everything feels intentional — the calming scents, the warm towels, the energy of the space. Their facials go way beyond skincare. It's restorative, rejuvenating, and grounding all at once. My skin looked instantly brighter, tighter, and smoother. The glow lasted for days, and my whole nervous system felt calmer. It's one of those rare places where you walk out feeling taken care of — inside and out. I cannot recommend them enough.”
Desiree Steele
“I called last minute on a Saturday and they were able to fit me in same day for a facial and head spa experience. It was just what I needed after a crazy work week with a lot of travel. Lindsey at the front desk was so sweet and accommodating and my facial with Sami was the best I've ever had in Austin. I will definitely be back.”
Courtney Ehrnstein
“I booked a dermafacial with a lymphatic tissue facial massage add-on. What an incredible experience. I've received many facials but this one was out of this world. Immediately on arrival the front desk was friendly and inviting — they didn't make me feel rushed. Ashley was my esthetician; she was genuinely interested in my skincare needs and was informative sharing her assessment, findings, and recommendations. The entire facial from start to finish was intentional. I got home and couldn't stop catching myself in the mirror. Hands down best facial and even more exceptional human-centered care from front office to technician.”
Alexandra Brandt
“Had such a great experience here. From the moment I arrived, everyone made me feel comfortable, welcomed, and genuinely cared for. I went in for a DiamondGlow service and really appreciated how thorough they were when explaining the treatment, my skin concerns, the process, and the different services they offer. I never felt pressured — just very informed and supported throughout the entire experience. They took the time to answer my questions honestly and made sure I understood everything before starting. The treatment itself was amazing, and my skin felt so refreshed afterward. What stood out the most was how kind, professional, and attentive the team was. You can tell they truly care about their clients and want people to feel confident and comfortable. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for quality skincare treatments and a welcoming environment.”
