2. INTRODUCTION
BB Glow facial is a beauty treatment that involves micro-needling/infusing a semi-
permanent BB cream into the skin to give it a flawless, natural-looking complexion.The
BB cream is infused with vitamins, peptides, and other nourishing ingredients that are
beneficial for the skin.While BB Glow facials can provide temporary improvements to
the skin's appearance,it's important to note that they are not a substitute for a healthy
skincare routine and lifestyle habits. Eating a nutritious diet, staying hydrated, getting
enough sleep, and using sunscreen regularly are all essential factors in maintaining
healthy, glowing skin.

7. PROCEDURE
Here is a step-by-step guide to the BB Glow facial procedure:
 Cleansing:The first step is to cleanse the face thoroughly to remove any dirt, oil, or
makeup.This is important to ensure that the skin is clean and ready for the
treatment.
 Exfoliation:The next step is to exfoliate the skin to remove any dead skin cells and
prepare it for the micro-needling process.A gentle exfoliating scrub or enzyme peel
is typically used for this step.
 Numbing: Depending on your pain threshold, a numbing cream may be applied to the
skin to minimize any discomfort during the micro-needling process.This is optional
and may not be necessary for everyone.

8.  Micro-needling:The BB Glow facial uses a micro-needling device to create tiny
punctures in the skin, which allows the BB Glow serum to penetrate more deeply.
The device is moved over the skin in a criss-cross pattern,focusing on areas where
more coverage is desired.
 Serum application:After the micro-needling is complete, the BB Glow serum is
applied to the skin in a thin layer.The serum contains a combination of pigments,
vitamins, and hyaluronic acid, which helps to even out skin tone, improve texture, and
boost hydration.
 Additional layers: Depending on the desired level of coverage, additional layers of the
BB Glow serum may be applied. Each layer is allowed to absorb fully before the next
one is applied.

9. The entire procedure typically takes around 60-90 minutes and there is no downtime
required afterwards.You may experience some mild redness or sensitivity immediately
after the treatment, but this should subside within a few hours.
