I just received the most amazing facial from Liz at Faux Glow. She did the Recharge Signature Facial with a lot of extractions but when she was done I thought my face was going t...

Well I had two sessions of a full body organic tan about a month apart with two different techs. Even though I asked for the same color, the first time was darker and I did unfort...

Ask for Liz! 5/19/2008

I went to Faux Glow hoping to get some color and I walked away a bronzed beauty! I am very fair and was somewhat apprehensive about sunless tanning but I found out that they had a range of colors for all types of skin color. I had my appointment with Liz and she was very pleasant. The prices are a bit high (I am a college student and I work part time) but Liz's service was high class and based on the compliments I got were totally worth it! Pros: Service, atmosphere, location Cons: Price more

""South Beach Bronzed"" and Loving it!!!! 5/18/2008

I read the reviews about Faux Glow on citysearch and I decided to try them out. They welcomed me with some Zico Coconut water (so yummy) and they had some snacks to eat while I was waiting. Katie came over and had me fill out a form and then we picked out the right shade for my skin - we decided the ""South Beach Bronzed"" was the best color for me. I saw myself in the mirror after it was done - it looked AMAZING!! Katie said it would get a little darker as the day went on but then the surface color would wash off and the tan would look just as great. As I was paying I looked up and I saw Linda Wells (the Editor of Allure Magazine) coming out of her room - she looked really good! I couldn't believe I saw her there. SO COOL! That is my favorite magazine - can you tell. Katie then gave me a brochure with all the instructions and tips on how to make the tan last longer. I decided to buy the package because it would make the sessions less money. I will be going back there for good. I hope I run into Linda Wells again. Pros: Seeing Linda Wells, Package Discounts, Color looked great, Katie was super sweet Cons: I didn't get to talk to Linda Wells more

I was so happy I tried Faux Glow! 5/16/2008

I went to Faux Glow after reading Paris Hilton was a client. She always looks great - so I knew I would have a good chance also. Well Rene' gave me the ""Bahama Bling"" color since I have a medium skin tone (she said the color would look natural on me). The color looked amazing. I was going away on vacation and I didn't have to worry about laying in the sun and baking my skin. I sat under the umbrella and drank some pina colada's, read some books, took naps and just relaxed. NO SUNBURN. My husband complimented me every day and told me how great I looked. I'm so glad I finally found the right place to get my airbrush tan's. I even bought a package of 4 sessions - since you get a discount the first time you are there. Great job!! Pros: Rene' was very nice, I loved the funky colors in the spa, The pampering Cons: Wish the prices were lower more

You've tried the rest, now try the best! 5/11/2008

Faux Glow lives up to all the hype. I have been going there for 5 years and made the mistake of trying a new place because they were booked (won't mention any names - but they were horrible). Faux Glow has the best artists in the city by far and the owner (Jeani) is truly the Picasso of Airbrush Tanning. I have been going to her for years but had to stop going to her for awhile because she was really sick for 2 years. She trained her staff to be just as amazing and no matter who I get they always do a great job! I'm so excited to hear they are expanding and opening a new location in LA. I have business out there and now i will have both coasts covered. Jeani really has done an amazing job with her business - she has expanded 3 times since she opened and she is really a smart business woman. I know all of this because I became friendly with her when I became her client. Her product she makes is amazing and the color is perfect - I love how she can customize it for each clients skin type. They really know how to make their clients feel comfortable in their spa and treat them with snacks, drinks, wine & cappuccino's (I never want to leave :). Well as you can tell I LOVE THIS PLACE and will continue to be a weekly client. Great job girls! Good luck in Cali! Pros: The Staff, The Spa Atmosphere, The Faux Glow Color more

Can't imagine going anywhere else! 5/6/2008

I'm a very fair blonde that's concerned with blinding people in the summer when I've fearlessly committed to switching over to skirts, shorts & tank tops. I have a cool undertone and find that most tanning products make me look muddy not to mention how they have the tendency to pool in those crevices that you definitely don't want to emphasize. The airbrush artists at Faux Glow not only match my ideal summer tone perfectly but add all the appropriate contours I wish I really had. In all honesty looking at my body with those contours gives me motivation to achieve those curves on my own...might give the faux girls less to do when I go next time...lol. more

Glowing Like a Star!!! 5/3/2008

I love this place. I found them through Allure magazine. They were mentioned in the Best of the Best issue. So I thought I would give them a try -but first I read some reviews on Citysearch (which seemed to confirm with the magazine). What a lovely place. I love the way it's decorated (the owner said she was the decorater). Katie had me fill out a client release form and then we went over colors - i picked Hollywood Honey. I didn't want a lot of color - just a light glow. She told me that it would last for only 4-5 days since we were going so light - but I didn't mind. I really just wanted to try out Faux Glow and see if I liked it there. I LOVED IT! They also offered me some snacks and a really refreshing drink called Zico - it's a Coconut water - it was so delicious. I will be going back there for sure. I'm so glad summer is coming up and I have found a great place to get my Airbrush Tans. Pros: Amazing Color, Zico Water, Katie more

Simply the Best!! 5/1/2008

I have been to other places in the city (Brazil Bronze, Sundara, Allure Day Spa, etc.) and nothing compares to Faux Glow. I usually go to Jeani or Katie. For my first vist they had me fill out a new client form and it also asked why I was there and what kind of color I was looking for (which I thought was great). Once I filled that out, we went over colors - I choose the Hollywood Honey. I loved my color - it was perfect. They give you a discount for your first visit of 10% off - so I took advantage of that and bought a package - I knew I would be addicted to this. They give you a brochure with all the instructons and tips on how to make it last longer. I was doing this for a wedding I was going to and I looked great in my dress (my husband couldn't stop staring at me - extra credit!). The color looks so natural and it lasted about 8 days on me. I'm so excited I read about them in Allure magazine and they lived up to their expectations. I can't wait for my next appointment. Pros: Staff is very friendly, They know thier stuff, Amazing Color! more

Best Glow in NYC! 1/29/2008

I am VERY fair, and I made an appointment with Rene...I was nervous to get sprayed because I did not want to become orange, and I did not want to look strange. Rene made my experience a very comfortable one...she went over the colors with me, and told me that the ""Hollywood Honey"" would get rid of my pastey white skin...and it did!! I looked amazing and felt great. Rene took great care of me, she made me feel comfortable and look great! She also gave me great instructions for maintaining my color for as long as possible. Thanks so much, I will be back for sure and will tell all my friends to come see you Rene! Pros: Perfect Tan, Staff more

Best Airbursh Tan EVER! 1/15/2008

Wow- there is not enough I can say about my Faux Glow from Jeani. I am quite the pale ale and have a family history of skin cancer- not to mention I wrinkle easily and going to college in Southern Cali, I noticed changes in the way my skin was looking- so suntanning is not an option for me. But I was going to Maui and wanted to look tan and hot in my bikini, so I found Jeani and had an at-home session with her. From the first moment she came in, she made me feel so comfortable! You can choose to leave underwear on if you'd like but I didn't want tan lines so I went nakie- which can be a humbling experience but the whole time we just chatted about our fave reality shows and I didn't feel at all uncomfortable or shy- it was like a girlfriend was spraying me. The tan itself was GORGEOUS- WOW is all I can say. You can choose which shade you want depending on your skin tone too so it looks natural. I felt so confident (and thin!) in my bikini and my husband kept saying how great I looked during the whole trip- his only regret was that he didn't get a tan from Jeani himself! Not only did the gorgeous tan last the entire week I was in Hawaii, but when I came home to New York and it was fading in some spots more than others, I did just what Jeani said- took a hot bubble bath and the entire tan came off so easily! This was very different from my other airbursh tans I have had both in LA and NYC because when they started fading I would try to exfoliate in the shower and I would scrub furiously and it would only come off in certain spots- it looked so strange. But with Jeani's tan- after a 20 minute bubble bath I was back to my pale ale self- it's sad to go back but MUCH better than looking two-toned like I had before with my other airbrush tans. The entire experience was just awesome and I could not have asked for more. I encourage everyone to try Faux Glow and I plan on doing a package this summer so that I look ""South Beach Bronzed"" for the entire season! Pros: gorgeous natural looking tan, extremely comfortable and easy process Cons: not having a Faux Glow 365 days a year! more

The best service anywhere in the city - and the color was amazing!!! 12/22/2007

I've tried several other places in the city and i saw Faux Glow in October's 2007 issue. I went to Jeani and she was amazing. She first offered me a cappucino and some snacks. Then we went over colors - I picked South Beach Bronzed. She showed me into the room which was very spacious and gave me instructions on how to prepare. She then came back into the room and started to spray me with a system that allows warm air to spray onto the skin so you aren't freezing (what a treat). Then she used the tube to continue drying me with the warm air for a minute and i was done - no drying time needed. She told me this is one of the new features they offer to clients - so you have a choice. I loved the color - it looked so natural and everyone that saw me over the next few days told me how great i looked. I think they already booked their own appointments. Thank you for pampering me - I will be back. Pros: Friendly Staff, Warm Air, Natural Looking Color & it Lasted 8 days. Cons: Had to park a block away more

They dont call it Glow for nothing! 11/13/2007

I was very skeptical on trying a new place but to my amazement it looked soooo great! Liz sprayed me and she did an exceptional job! She was professional, detailed, and very sweet. I would def recommend Faux Glow and Liz for anyones future tanning needs. I plan to go through out the entire winter to keep up this amazing glow! Ive been to other spray tanning spas in the past but Faux Glow is by far the best place I have been to. Liz left no streaking, no blotches, and the color looks amazing! Pros: Staff Cons: cant go on rainy days more

Wonderful Tans AND Great Customer Service! 10/9/2007

I was browsing on CItysearch and came upon the last review of Faux Glow. I was take aback by her comments about the customer service. I have never had any problems and or issues with Faux Glow. I am a consistant customer and have never had any problems with the staff. I firmly believe that Jeani Roth owns a very friendly and upscale business and that Faux Glow is the best spray in the city. As far as a 24 hour cancelation policy, Im pretty sure... actually, i would almost guarentee that every salon in New York has the same thing, so why this is an issue for some would boggle the mind. Jeani, Faux Glow staff, your the best and I reccomend you to all of my friends. See you very soon, smooches!! Pros: Wonderful Service and a smile on every face. more

BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE FOR REPEAT CUSTOMER!! 10/4/2007

I wanted to comment on the reply. I did say that I liked the tanning, as I have gone there for years and years. I was just commenting on their customer service. I think that their tanning is great, and I only commented on my last tan as the person was fairly new (as she told me). Cons: Bad customer service more

The best tan ever!!! 6/4/2007

I got a Faux Glow from Katie right before a major photo shoot. She surpassed all of my expectations. My tan was not blotchy or streaky at all. My agent even loved it! I had the medium shade and was bronzed from head to toe! I would definitley visit Faux Glow again, especially before an important event. Katie was helpful and sweet, as were the rest of the staff. So far in this city, this is the best spray tan I've gotten. Thank you Faux Glow- you are the best! I'll be back! more

Vibrant, Beautiful and IT'S NOT BAD FOR YOUR SKIN!!! 5/31/2007

People look at me and say... WOW you look radiant with a little sun on your face. Well it's always right after I get a Faux Glow!! It's amazing what a little tan can do!! I owe you girls at Faux all of the amazing complements I get and I thank you so much for making my skin look and feel so great!! more

Sunkist 5/29/2007

I love Faux Glow! Every time I leave I look like I just got back from the islands. They can cater the tan to your skin tone - which makes it perfect for all seasons. I never have to lie in the sun again!!!! Pros: Everyone is so friendly and they really know how to do the tan properly Cons: I wish I could think of something more

Best Sunless tanning salon out there. 5/29/2007

Every experience I've had at Faux Glow has been better than the last. I've been to many sunless spas and none compare. Not the tan, not the ambiance, and certainly not the staff. They are so warm and friendly. If you are looking for a tanning spa in New York City, this is the only place to go! more
