About Glow Portal

Glow Portal is a small online journal kept by Yuna Park-Salem from Antwerp, Belgium. It has been running, in one form or another, since 2023.

A skincare-curious diary — gentle experiments, dewy mornings, slow routines. The pieces here are short, written by hand, and posted when they are ready rather than on any schedule.

About the author

Yuna Park-Salem is the skincare amateur & journal-keeper behind this site. The journal is not affiliated with any publication, brand, or commercial interest. It is a personal project that has, over the years, accumulated a small handful of regular readers.

About the writing

The pieces are first-person notes from a life of slow attention. They are not advice. They are not reviews. They are not the kind of content that the algorithms reward. They are what I want to read, written for the version of myself that wants to read it.

About this site

The site is hand-built. There are no trackers, no advertisements, and no email list. If you find something that resonates, the best thing you can do is leave a small piece of attention on it and come back when you have time for the next one.

If you want to write back, you can — quietly, by the small comment form at the foot of any post. I read everything. I do not always reply.
