Corporate Skincare Bar for North Shore VIP Clients and Women Leaders
A corporate skincare bar on the North Shore turns a VIP client evening into a private spa visit with a gift. Each client sits with a licensed esthetician, talks through their skin, and makes a set formulated just for them.
Ravinia has hosted the Chicago Symphony Orchestra every summer since 1936. That sense of tradition carries up the lakefront. From Evanston to Highland Park, many firms are advisors, attorneys, and boutiques whose clients expect genuine care.

Why a corporate skincare bar works on the North Shore
A top client may already have everything, so a thoughtful experience matters more than another gift basket. First, the guest picks a skin goal: dry skin, acne-prone skin, or anti-aging, the clear favorite. Then an esthetician helps choose oils, add-ins, and serums, which are lightweight treatments with a high concentration of active ingredients.
Every base is unscented, so each client adds a fragrance they love or none. In addition, founder Cheryl Gleason, a skincare formulator and trained perfumer, develops the bases in our own lab. Our most requested North Shore skincare bar bookings are VIP client events for advisory firms, in-home client events hosted by a partner, a women's leadership dinner for a small circle, and a client spa afternoon in the quieter months.
Who books a corporate skincare bar on the North Shore
Wealth advisors and their top clients
For an advisory firm, this bar gives your most valued clients two unhurried hours with an esthetician. They leave with products they use daily, so your firm becomes part of every morning. Meanwhile, each formulation stays on file for reorders.
Law firms and professional offices
Attorneys and professional practices often entertain a handful of key clients at a time. That's why a corporate skincare bar for 20 or fewer feels right in a North Shore conference room. Even guests who rarely try new skincare enjoy the conversation.
Women's leadership circles
Senior women at Northwestern University, Endeavor Health, or firms such as ZS seldom gather just to recharge. A skincare bar gives that circle a calm, shared table. Plus, everyone goes home with a set made for her own skin.
What guests make at the skincare bar
First, each guest chooses a skin goal. Then a licensed esthetician helps her add oils, serums, and add-ins. A serum is a lightweight treatment with a high concentration of active ingredients, such as a hydrating or brightening serum. Our bases are unscented on purpose, so each guest adds her own fragrance, or none at all. We also keep every formulation on file, so a favorite can be made again.
The bar is seated and unhurried. It usually runs 1.5 to 2 hours for 10 to 15 guests, and it is designed for groups of 20 and under. For a larger room, however, the corporate perfume bar on the North Shore or the Lip Lab moves more guests per hour. Full ingredient and allergen details are on our allergens and safety page.
North Shore venues for a skincare bar
Here, memorable client evenings tend to unfold in homes, offices, and garden rooms instead of ballrooms.
Your office or a private home
Many advisors host in their own office or in a client's home. We bring the styled bar, so a dining room or conference room becomes the spa for the evening.
Winnetka Community House
Companies can book its Garden Reception Hall for private functions. For a skincare group of 20 or fewer, the residential warmth feels like a friend's living room.
Chicago Botanic Garden
In Glencoe, the garden hosts private events in spaces such as Nichols Hall. So a small client group can pair the bar with a seasonal visit.
Hilton Orrington/Evanston
This Orrington Avenue hotel suits clients coming up from the city. Still, choose a smaller room over the Grand Ballroom, so the conversation stays intimate.
Planning notes for North Shore
- Your firm's name on every jarWe can print your logo or event name on each jar. Because labels are made ahead, place the order at booking and allow roughly four weeks for printing.
- Hosting at homeFor an in-home evening, a dining room usually works well. Plan for roughly 12 by 6 feet, two 6-foot tables, and seating. Then our team is on site an hour ahead of your guests.
- Distance and transitOur Mokena studio is roughly 43 miles from Evanston and 53 from Highland Park. Also, guests from the city can ride Metra's Union Pacific North line, or the CTA Purple Line to Evanston.
- Holiday timingDecember client evenings go quickly, so reserve your corporate skincare bar on the North Shore 3 to 6 months out. Holiday dates are often gone by late summer.
Glitters & Grace was founded by Cheryl Gleason, a trained perfumer, a cosmetic and skincare formulator, and the creative force behind every bar we bring to your event.

Yes. Every base starts unscented, and each guest chooses a skin goal, so the set suits anyone. Guests who prefer no fragrance simply leave it out.

A corporate skincare bar on the North Shore is designed for 20 guests or fewer. Because 10 to 15 guests take about 1.5 to 2 hours, there is still time for dinner afterward.

Licensed estheticians host every skincare bar. Meanwhile, the bases come from our own lab, developed by founder Cheryl Gleason, a cosmetic and skincare formulator.
Do you serve Wilmette, Winnetka, and Glencoe?
Yes. We cover the whole shore from Evanston north to Highland Park, including homes, offices, and community houses along the way.
Can clients reorder their moisturizer later?
