About Melissa R. Mixon

Melissa R. Mixon is a licensed esthetician, luxury wellness strategist, and the visionary founder of Glow & Escape — a boutique brand that blends skincare, soulful travel, and intentional beauty into unforgettable, elevated experiences.

With a background rooted in glamour modeling, Melissa spent her early years immersed in the fashion, style, and cultural rhythms of cities around the world. This global exposure shaped her signature eye for detail, elegance, and soulful living — a foundation she brings into every aspect of her brand.

As a traveling esthetician, Melissa has delivered high-touch skincare and wellness treatments in elite spaces across the U.S. and abroad, including the renowned White Elephant Spa in Nantucket. Her clientele has included high-net-worth individuals and wellness travelers seeking more than just results — they seek transformation.

Glow & Escape is the natural evolution of Melissa’s journey — a space where luxury meets intention, and beauty travels with you. Through this platform, she curates elevated getaways for couples, families, and mindful adventurers, while also offering on-site bridal beauty services and wellness planning for destination events.

In addition to her travel expertise, Melissa is the founder of two sister brands:
DeLaRosa Aesthetics – focused on skin health and healing
DeLaRosa Beauty – skincare, bridal makeup, designed to glow with you, wherever you go

Many of the images and blog posts on Glow & Escape are drawn from Melissa’s own journeys — offering not only recommendations, but reflections and inspiration from the road. Her writing captures the beauty of slowing down, living with intention, and finding radiance in every destination.
