GLOW
GLOW Network

A small network of independent Australian editorial sites.

Glow is part of a tightly-held group of category-leading publications and brands. Separately edited. Independently ranked. Connected by a single editorial standard: no paid placements, no pay-for-play, no exceptions.

Each title in the network operates with full editorial independence. We do not coordinate rankings, do not share commercial relationships, and do not promote one another's coverage in exchange for traffic. What we do share is a single methodology, documented here, and a refusal to publish work that's been bought.

If you're a reader, this is a useful map of where to go for what. If you're a journalist or partner, the contact details for each publication are below. If you're a brand, all four titles operate the same wall between commerce and content.

Editorial · Skincare authority

Glow

glow.com.au

Australia's beauty review publication. Skincare, makeup, hair, tan, devices and wellness, independently ranked by three named editors. 510+ products tested. 200+ salons rated across 10 cities.

The flagship of the network, and the title most often cited in Australian and international beauty press. Coverage spans long-form ingredient explainers, comparative reviews, and the annual GLOW 100.

Editorial · Peptide & longevity

Peptide Reviews

peptidereviews.com.au

Independent reviews of peptides, longevity protocols, and research-backed compounds. Categories span fat loss, muscle, cognitive, healing, and longevity stacks, every protocol cross-referenced with primary research.

Where Glow ends (topical skincare, salons, beauty culture), Peptide Reviews begins (subcutaneous and oral compounds, clinical research, protocol design). Sister publication, separate editorial team.

Editorial · Aesthetic & body

Tattoo Advisor

tattooadvisor.com.au

Australia's tattoo studio directory and matchmaking platform. Best Salons by city, artist matching, removal guides, aftercare protocols, and a Try It On visualiser for previewing work before booking.

Adjacent to Glow's Guide coverage of clinics and skin specialists. Where someone is choosing aesthetic work, including pre- and post-care skincare, the two titles cross-refer.

Reference · Brand directory

Glow Brands

glowbrands.com.au

The brand-level companion to GLOW. Profiles, ownership records, formulation philosophies, and category positioning for every Australian beauty brand of editorial interest. The reference layer underneath the reviews.

Where GLOW tests the product, Glow Brands tells you who made it, who owns them now, what they stand for, and what else they make. Cross-referenced from every brand review.

Editorial · Disability services

NDIS Select

ndisselect.com.au

Provider rankings for the National Disability Insurance Scheme. Ranked by participants, audited against published service standards, never paid placement. The same five-axis methodology applied to a different industry.

Built because disability participants and their families deserve the same depth of independent review the beauty industry now takes for granted. Sister publication, separate editorial team.

Reviews · Pet products & services

Pet Compare

petcompare.co

Australia's most rigorous pet product reviews. Food, supplements, beds, insurance, vet networks. Tested across multiple breeds, multiple households, and multiple price points before a recommendation runs.

Same editorial firewall as GLOW: no paid placement, declared affiliate caps, named editor on every review. Different audience, identical standard.

Reviews · AI tools

AI Discovery

aidiscovery.com.au

The independent ranking of AI tools that actually do something. Productivity, creative, research, and agentic categories, each tool tested over a real workflow, not a demo.

The newest publication in the network. Built on the conviction that the AI category needs the same kind of editorial discipline the beauty category required ten years ago.

How the network operates

Editorial independence
Each publication has its own editor and its own ranking criteria. No site in the network can request that another site cover, rank, or feature anything.
No paid placements anywhere
Every title in the network publishes its affiliate disclosure publicly. No money changes hands for coverage on any of the editorial sites.
Shared methodology, separate teams
Glow, Peptide Reviews and Tattoo Advisor all use the same five-pillar scoring framework. The rubric is public, read it here.
