EYELINER

• Do not get the lashes tinted within 5 days of treatment.
• Do get the lashes tinted 1 week prior. You will be advised not to wear mascara for the week following.
• No lash extensions at the time of your appointment: Lash extensions may be applied 4 weeks after healed.

• If you wear contact lenses ensure they are removed and bring your glasses.
• Avoid eye makeup at the time of your appointment.
• Please call for further advice if you have experienced recent infection or irritation of the eyes.

Eyes Aftercare

• • Your eyelids will feel heavy and slightly puffy afterwards.
  • Swelling may be experienced the morning after. This normally subsides within a day but coult be 3-5 days.
  • Apply ice to the area immediately after treatment, for 5-10 minutes every few hours. Do not apply directly to exposed skin.
  • Using a clean cotton tip, apply a very thin layer of product provided to the area and allow the gel to dry.
  • Do not apply mascara to lashes for 7 days.
  • Do not apply lash extensions for up to 4 weeks after final treatment.
  • If you experience any unexpected discomfort or irritation of the eyes notify your cosmetic artist and consult a pharmacist immediately for further advice.

LIPS

Lips Preparation

• • If you have a history of cold sores, it is essential to see you visit a pharmacy and purchase L-lysine and/or over the counter cold sore medication (ask the pharmacist) at least 7 days before your appointment and request preventative treatment.
  • Avoid laser hair removal on or near the area 2 weeks prior.
  • Avoid wax or threading hair removal on or near the area 2 weeks prior, the hair is a guide for us to your vermillion border.
  • Scars on the area may retain pigment differently or heal patchy.
  • Ensure the lip area is not sun or wind burnt, chapped or too dry.
  • Gently exfoliate the area once a day for a week before treatment (cooking coconut oil with course sugar or coffee grinds is great for this, or a very gentle exfoliant)
  • If you have Angular Cheilitis (dry corners of the mouth) please advise your Artist before booking an appointment.

Lips Aftercare

• • You may experience minor swelling following your treatment, expect this to subside over 3-5 days.
  • Blot provided water swabs, clean the area morning and night every day for the first 4 days
  • Regularly apply aftercare product during the day to keep the area moist, this could be every 30 minutes.  Ensure you’re only applying a thin layer each time. Too much product may adversely affect healing.
  • Expect peeling around day 3-4, the colour will at first appear like it is completely gone and will gradually return as the new skin settles.
  • Return for a touch-up at 6 – 8 weeks.
  • Avoid consuming hot drinks or alcohol for 5 days.
  • If you experience unexpected discomfort or symptoms of cold sores consult a health professional immediately for further advice, and notify your Cosmetic Artist.

BROWS

Brow Preparation

• Have your brows waxed/tidied a week before treatment.
• Do not wax or tint the brows within 3 days of treatment. No tinting until 4 weeks after.
• Gently exfoliate the area for up to 3 days prior, ensure the skin is well nourished.
• Do not use any brow-enhancing serums for at least 30 days before treatment it will compomise the implant of pigment.
• Do come in with an open mind about the different techniques: after a thorough consultation your artist will advise the most suitable option.
• You will be advised not to wet your brows for 5 days following treatment, I recommend washing your hair the night before.

Brow Aftercare

• • Each morning clean the brow area with swabs provided.
  • Dab the area dry with a clean tissue.
  • Using a cotton tip, apply a very thin layer of aftercare product to the area and allow the gel to dry.
  • Repeat this procedure morning and night for 7 days.
  • Avoid saturating the area with water until the final scabs naturally fall off.
  • Once healed, minor patchiness in colour may be present in some areas. This is normal and will be adjusted accordingly at the touch-up in 6-8 weeks. I recommend wearing brow powder or pencil to cover these areas until then.
