Michele Glanden
Owner & Facialist
I can pinpoint the exact moment I fell in love with skincare — my first spa experience, Queen for the Day, at age 13. From that day on, I knew exactly what I wanted to do when I grew up.
In 2011, I got the courage to follow my gut & take a leap of faith. I left my corporate job at Philadelphia Magazine to train at the Rizzieri Aveda Institute in Voorhees, NJ. There, my passion turned into expertise, and the dream of opening my own private studio began to take shape. After graduation, I gained hands-on experience at Avenue Apothecary in Rehoboth. Life soon pulled me in different directions — changing careers & building a family — but I never lost my love for skincare. I was confident that this passion would one day guide me back to my original dream. Finally, in September of 2024, I launched Craving Quiet!
Returning to the industry, I knew I wanted to take a more holistic approach — one that goes beyond the skin’s surface. True skin health is deeply connected to overall well-being, from the products we use to the stress we carry. My goal is to create a space where skincare feels both healing & transformative.
The best part of working for myself is being able to spend the time connecting with my clients. I want to help you achieve your skincare goals in a way that feels both nurturing and results-driven. I am passionate about educating my clients on the products I truly believe in and witnessing the impact my treatments have on their confidence and well-being.
I can’t wait to welcome you to Craving Quiet!
