Rules & Prizes

Who is running it

The Ultimate Glow Weekend giveaway is organized by Glow Hour in collaboration with GLO30 Old Town. Glow Hour handles entry and winner selection; GLO30 Old Town provides the GLO30 services. The participating studio is at 106 N Lee St, Alexandria, VA 22314. Questions for the giveaway organizer go to info@glohour.co. Instagram is not a sponsor, endorser, administrator, or partner in this giveaway. By entering, participants release Instagram from responsibility for the promotion.

Who can enter

Entrants must be 21 or older and able to travel to and attend an experience in the Washington, DC, Maryland, or Virginia area during October 2–4, 2026 and, if they claim a GLO30 service, visit GLO30 Old Town in Alexandria. Entrants need not live in DC, Maryland, or Virginia.

No purchase or payment is required to enter or win. A purchase does not improve the chance of winning. Opting in to marketing emails or texts is not required and does not improve the chance of winning.

How and when to enter

The giveaway begins when the giveaway post is published and closes September 29, 2026, at 11:59 PM Eastern Time. To enter, follow @glowhourdc and @glo30alexandria_oldtown, like the giveaway post, comment “GLOW” and tag the person you would bring, then complete the linked entry form. The tagged person must also follow both accounts for the entrant to qualify for a prize. The tagged person must complete their own entry to receive entrant benefits or qualify for their own prize. One entry per person. Duplicate comments or form submissions do not create additional entries and will not be considered.

Prizes and benefits

• One grand-prize winner: Two tickets, one for the winner and one for a friend, to one available experience the winner chooses from Glow Hour’s selected October 2–4 weekend picks. Glow Hour will pay for the tickets, with a combined ticket budget of $80–$200. The winner also receives one 60-minute SmartGLO Facial at GLO30 Old Town, including an AI skin scan and full treatment. The facial is for the winner only and has a stated value of $220. The combined stated value is approximately $300–$420, depending on the chosen experience. Picks are subject to availability when the winner confirms their choice; if one is sold out, the winner may choose another available pick within the ticket budget.
• Ten runners-up: Each receives the complimentary GLO30 First-Time Guest Pass, a 30-minute experience with a GLOria AI skin analysis and 15-minute facial, plus a GLO30 GloPack. The pass is available only to new GLO30 guests, one per person.
• All eligible entrants: Each receives booking details after October 2 for the complimentary GLO30 First-Time Guest Pass, a 30-minute experience with a GLOria AI skin analysis and 15-minute facial. The pass is available only to new GLO30 guests, one per person. Glow Hour also plans to email any secured offers for selected October 2–4 weekend picks before that weekend. An offer or promo code from any particular event host is not guaranteed.

GLO30 Old Town says the First-Time Guest Pass can be booked online without a special code. Booking is required and subject to appointment availability. GLO30 told Glow Hour that the grand-prize winner has until December 15, 2026 to redeem the facial; the follow-up email will state the deadline for other entrants’ pass bookings. GLO30’s general booking terms say a card may be required to hold an appointment and a $30 fee may apply for cancellation within 24 hours or a no-show. There is no prize substitution. Prizes are non-transferable and cannot be exchanged for cash. If a selected experience becomes unavailable, the winner may choose another available selected pick within the ticket budget. If none remains available, the winner retains the SmartGLO Facial but the ticket portion cannot be awarded.

How winners are selected and contacted

Glow Hour will draw the grand-prize winner and ten runners-up at random from eligible entries after entries close. Winners are scheduled to be announced September 30, 2026. Glow Hour will attempt to contact the grand-prize winner twice by email or Instagram DM, and by text only if they chose giveaway texts. The grand-prize winner has 12 hours from Glow Hour’s first contact attempt to respond. If they do not respond within that period, they forfeit the prize and Glow Hour will draw another eligible winner at random. Glow Hour will contact runners-up about their prizes by email or Instagram DM. Eligibility will be checked before any prize is awarded. If an entrant or their tagged person does not follow both accounts, the entrant will be disqualified and another winner selected.

The chance of winning depends on the number of eligible entries received. Participants are responsible for any costs not expressly included in the prize, such as travel, parking, and additional purchases. Winners are responsible for any applicable taxes on prizes. Glow Hour may request information needed for tax reporting if required by law.
