## Story

“The inspiration for goGLOW was two-fold. First, my lifelong dream to empower women with the confidence to illuminate their natural beauty both inside and out. And, second, my passion and determination to discover, or in this case invent, a better solution to the existing, subpar, and often toxic tanning offerings in the industry,” said Richards.

“Our brand is beloved by everyone who experiences our products and locations, and that client loyalty is an integral part of our growth and prosperity. With that assurance, we are thrilled to embark on this next chapter of our journey and expand the goGLOW movement nationwide.”

goGLOW has elevated spray tanning to a professional skin service level and its salons boast an elegant, fresh, and simple design and atmosphere to enhance the overall experience for clients. goGLOW uses proprietary, state-of-the-art equipment, developed by Richards, and each specialist is a true professional, well trained in the art, science, and precision of tanning application to create a flawless, "not spray tanned" look every time. Unlike any other sunless tanning concepts in the industry, goGLOW’s approach is one of empowerment and confidence, delivering a new generation of high level treatment and results which includes education so that clients have the tools and knowledge to properly care for their skin.

goGLOW’s line of proprietary and unisex products, which can both enhance an everyday skincare routine or complement a goGLOW service, were uniquely developed utilizing natural plant-based ingredients that are vegan, paraben-free, cruelty-free, and made in the USA. Several new products are currently in development, and the existing line includes:

- **goGLOW CLEANSE** - a pH balancing daily cleanser with anti-inflammatory antioxidants to naturally cleanse skin, lock in moisture, and help with visible signs of aging.

- **goGLOW EXTEND** - a gradual self-tanning moisturizer packed with antioxidants and plant extracts including organic coconut oil and a proprietary DHA concoction to restore dry, dull, or flaky pale skin.

- **goGLOW TOUCH UP** - a professional grade self-tanning mist with a proprietary blend of encapsulated DHA, combined with organic aloe leaf juice, white tea extract and grapefruit extract to provide natural, bronzed, and brown, never orange, self-tanning results, while keeping skin hydrated and toned.

goGLOW currently operates three locations in the greater Minneapolis, MN area, and one location in Chicago, IL.
