For a growing number of travellers, however, it ends with skin that looks different \u2013 glowier \u2013 from how it did at the beginning of the trip.<\/p>\n<div datatype=\"p\" data-qa=\"Component-Component\" class=\"e8zc9q40 css-1xdhyk6 ec74h0k0\">This is the whole premise behind the <span data-qa=\"Component-Text\" class=\"css-0 ef9u0v00\">glowcation<\/span>, a term everywhere in recent travel trend reports that describes a very specific kind of trip: one built around a wellness treatment, beauty ritual or very targeted pharmacy haul.<\/div>\n<div datatype=\"p\" data-qa=\"Component-Component\" class=\"e8zc9q40 css-1xdhyk6 ec74h0k0\">During a normal holiday, many people will squeeze in an odd spa afternoon between museum visits. A glowcation, however, is a trip where the treatment is the entire reason for going \u2013 a clinic in Seoul, a hammam in Marrakech, a <span data-qa=\"Component-Text\" class=\"css-0 ef9u0v00\">thermal bath<\/span> in Germany \u2013 for something that cannot be replicated at home.<\/div>\n<p datatype=\"p\" data-qa=\"Component-Component\" class=\"e8zc9q40 css-1c6uqr6 ec74h0k1\">That is not to say that you cannot get a facial, a skin booster or that same treatment without leaving your neighbourhood, but the real draw is usually something that does not travel well: that country\u2019s fresh water or clay, or a decades-old technique in this country.<\/p>\n<p datatype=\"p\" data-qa=\"Component-Component\" class=\"e8zc9q40 css-1c6uqr6 ec74h0k1\">That exclusivity means that cities around the world have come to expect these wellness tourists. In Seoul, for example, there are hundreds of clinics fighting for business. With so much competition, this means shorter waits for clients \u2013 an appointment that takes months to land at home can be done in the same week you arrive.<\/p>\n<p datatype=\"p\" data-qa=\"Component-Component\" class=\"e8zc9q40 css-1c6uqr6 ec74h0k1\">According to Skyscanner\u2019s 2026 travel trends report, travel planning and advice conversations within Reddit\u2019s beauty subreddits have grown 215 per cent year on year. That same report says that 27 per cent of Gen Z travellers are seeking treatments or skincare shopping while travelling in 2026, while nearly a third of people now shop duty-free for skincare.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<center><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.scmp.com\/lifestyle\/travel-leisure\/article\/3363172\/6-glowcation-destinations-your-next-beauty-and-wellness-fix-seoul-marrakech?utm_source=rss_feed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article At Source <\/a><br \/>\n<center\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For many, a holiday ends with a suitcase full of souvenirs.
