The Urban Glow Story
Our Story
We’ll Take Care of You
Urban Glow is more than a skin and beauty clinic, it’s a space where every client feels seen, supported, and genuinely cared for.
Our team brings together decades of combined experience, advanced industry training, and a deep understanding of skin across all ages and stages. Whether you’re a teen managing breakouts, navigating skin changes in your 30s and 40s, or seeking support for mature skin, there’s a therapist at Urban Glow who understands your needs.
We take a respectful, tailored approach to skin health, focusing first on repair and barrier support, before progressing to more active treatments. From our carefully selected product ranges to our personalised treatment plans, everything we do is designed to deliver real results in a calm and nurturing environment.

Stephanie
Founder & Owner
Stephanie is the heart behind Urban Glow. Warm, welcoming, and deeply passionate about skin health, she created Urban Glow as a space where real results meet genuine care. From the moment you walk through the door, her calm energy sets the tone for everything that follows.

Her passion lies in helping clients feel confident in their skin, by working with the skin, not against it. Stephanie believes in rebuilding and repairing the skin barrier before using active ingredients, to create lasting results without compromising skin health. Every product and treatment on the menu reflects that gentle, results-driven philosophy.
With over 20 years of experience, Stephanie began her career in the UK with NVQ Levels 2 & 3 in Beauty Therapy, then moved to Australia in 2011, where she earned her Australian Diploma and quickly became a leader in the industry. She managed Orbe Beauty before becoming a co-owner, mentoring up-and-coming therapists and partnering with TAFE to support students through their qualifications.
She’s won multiple awards with Guinot skincare, including SA Salon of the Year, and even visited their Paris headquarters. In 2021, she took full ownership of the business, rebranding as Urban Glow and expanding into advanced skin and body treatments with state-of-the-art equipment and the introduction of O Cosmedics.
In 2025, she expanded the space to meet growing demand, yet no matter how much Urban Glow grows, Stephanie’s mission stays the same: to create a calm, beautiful environment where every client feels supported, cared for, and glowing.

She later added internationally recognised CIBTAC and CIDESCO diplomas in Beauty and Spa Therapy to her impressive resume, as well as the Australian Certificate IV in Training and Assessment.
