Share your talent. Earn your glow.
Trade for Glow
For nearly 20 years, Astoria has been our home. Trade for Glow is our way of giving back — a community exchange program where local entrepreneurs and service providers receive luxury aesthetic treatments at Renew Esthetics in exchange for what they do best.
No money needed. Just your talent, your time, and your story.
What Is Trade for Glow?
Trade for Glow is a service exchange initiative born from gratitude. If you’re a local entrepreneur, freelancer, or service provider, you can apply to receive luxury skin care treatments at Renew Esthetics Medical Spa — in exchange for a service of equivalent value that you provide.
How It Works
Step 1
Apply
Fill out our Trade for Glow application. Tell us who you are, what service you offer, and which Renew treatment you’d love to receive.
Step 2
We Review
Our team personally reviews every application. We look at the service offered, its proportionality to the requested treatment, and the fit with our community mission.
Step 3
We Connect
If selected, we reach out to coordinate the details of the exchange — your treatment dates, the terms of your service contribution, and the content plan for your feature.
Step 4
You Receive Your Glow
Come in for your treatment. Our team takes care of you the way we have taken care of Astoria for 20 years. With your consent, we document the experience and create content that tells your story.
Step 5
You Receive Your Glow
We publish your story across our platforms — tagging your business, showcasing your service, and introducing you to a community that has trusted us for nearly two decades.
What You Can Receive
At Renew Esthetics, we believe every exchange should feel fair — for both sides. That’s why. Depending on the nature and value of your service, your trade may include — but is not limited to:
- Laser Hair Removal
- HydraFacial Luxe
- Dermaplaning
- Facial Rejuvenation
- Chemical Peels
Our team will assess your skin and your goals during a complimentary consultation and recommend the treatment that best fits both your needs and the agreed terms of your exchange.

How the exchange is valued
No two trades are identical — and that’s intentional. When you apply, our team evaluates the professional value of the service you offer. We then align it with a treatment (or combination of treatments) of equivalent value. Both parties agree on the terms before any commitment is made. Our goal is a trade that feels genuinely fair — not transactional.
What We Accept in Exchange
We welcome any professional service of fair value. Some examples:
- Hair styling, coloring, barbering, nail artistry, makeup
- Website design, tech support, social media, photography, videography
- Catering, custom baking, meal preparation, restaurant experiences
- Plumbing, electrical, HVAC, maintenance, renovation
- Pet grooming, veterinary services, pet sitting
- Personal training, yoga, nutrition, massage therapy
- Accounting, legal, coaching, tutoring
- Landscaping, interior design, cleaning, florals, graphic design
Don’t see your service? Apply anyway. If what you offer has real value to our team or our space, we want to hear from you.
