After Care

• At first your eyebrows will appear extremely dark. This is normal. Your eyebrows will completely exfoliate in approximately 7 days resulting in a soft natural color.
• Apply a small amount of Vaseline with a clean Q-tip, or extremely clean finger, at least twice a day (morning and night) for approximately 7 days, or until your eyebrows have completely exfoliated. Do not allow eyebrows to dry out during the healing process.
• Some swelling and redness is to be expected, but will dissipate quickly. Itching is common, but please do not scratch or pick at your new eyebrows during the healing process as this can cause insufficient color saturation to that area.
• Keep eyebrows clean by allowing water to gently flow over them in the shower. Please avoid direct water pressure. You may also pat them with a clean warm or cool washcloth. Do not wash with soap or facial cleanser for 7 days, until healed.
• Eyebrows may heal slightly blotchy after the first appointment. This is normal. You may fill in with a brow pencil after they have healed. This will be corrected in the second appointment.
• Avoid tanning booths, pools and hot tubs for at least one week after procedure to prevent infection.

Post Procedure information for lips:

• Continue taking the antiviral prescribed medication from your doctor or dentist if you have a history of cold sores.
• It is normal for your lips to be extremely bright and swollen after your appointments.
• Gently apply Vaseline unto your lips several times a day until they completely exfoliate.
• Your lips will exfoliate in approximately 4 days, resulting in a soft natural color. The color may seem to have completely disappeared. After 3-4 weeks you will notice the color reappearing. It takes at least two applications of pigment to achieve optimal color; a "lipstick look" cannot realistically be achieved.
• Do not apply lipstick for one week after procedure.
• Lips tend to be extremely dry for a few weeks after procedure. Chap stick or a lip moisturizer with a sunscreen will help your lips to feel moist during this healing period.
• Avoid hot tubs, chlorinated swimming pools, and tanning booths for one week.
• Sun damage, scar tissue, cold sores, dense lip tissue and a history of smoking may limit the amount of color your lips will take. Some clients obtain great color saturation, and others retain little color. Final results cannot be guaranteed.

Eyeliner After Care:

• At first your eyeliner will appear extremely dark. This is normal. You may lose up to 40% of the color after the 1st appointment. When applied for the first time, eyeliner usually requires two sessions to achieve optimal color.
• Eyes will be tender and swollen for a few days. This is normal and will dissipate in 24-48 hours.
• You may elevate your head and apply cold compresses. This is most effective if done during the first 24 hours.
• Apply a very small amount of Vaseline with a clean Q-tip at least twice a day (morning and night) for 3-4 days. Do not allow eyeliner to dry out for the first 72 hours.
• Be careful not to get Vaseline in your eyes and do not apply Vaseline over tear ducts.
• Itching is also common. Do not scratch or pick as this may cause insufficient pigment to the area.
• Keep eyeliner clean by allowing water to gently flow over them in the shower. Avoid direct water pressure. You may pat them with a clean cool or warm washcloth. Do not wash with soap or facial cleanser for 3-4 days, during the healing period.
• Do not wear contacts, eye shadow or mascara during the healing period of 3-4 days.
• Avoid tanning booths, pools and hot tubs for at least one week after procedure to prevent infection.

Eye Infections:

• Eye infections are not common, but of course they can happen at any time.
• Do not use too much Vaseline! Vaseline acts as a magnet to allergens like smoke, dust, dirt, chemicals and pet dander, which can cause an eye infection. Do not place Vaseline over tear ducts.
• Do not touch your eyes with dirty fingers. Wash hands extremely well or use clean Q-tips!
• If eye irritation occurs, stop using the Vaseline immediately. Clean eyes by washing off Vaseline, and rinse with buffered eyewash. Contact your physician for antibiotic eye drops.
