  • Avoid Fish Oil, Prenatal Vitamins, and “Hair, Skin, Nail” supplements 24 hours prior to procedure.

  • Please Note: You will be more sensitive during your menstrual cycle.

Permanent Makeup Post-Care

  • Keep the area completely dry for 10 days .
  • Apply the aftercare ointment given  1-3 times a day (for the amount of days recommended by your artist) with freshly washed hands.
  • DO NOT rub, pick or scratch the treated area. Let any scabbing or dry skin naturally exfoliate. Picking can cause infection, scarring and pigment loss!
  • COMPLETELY avoid direct sun exposure and tanning beds for a minimum of 4 weeks after your procedure.  Direct sunlight can cause the pigment to change color while it is healing and can also cause hyper pigmentation and scarring.
  • Avoid pool, sauna, steam rooms, hot showers and/or hot baths for 3 weeks.
  • Avoid sweating for a full 10 days. Any physical effort, gym, hot weather, any other activity that may cause sweating through or on the brows will expel pigment from the dermis producing poor results.
  • Avoid sleeping on your face/brows for the first 10 days.
  • Keep your bangs and hair pulled back from your face for the first 10 days.
  • NO makeup or skincare products to be used on the treated area for two weeks.
  • NO facials, chemical treatments and microdermabrasion for 4 weeks.
  • After 10 days, once the area has healed completely, consider using sunblock when going out in the sun to stop the color from fading.
  • Eyebrow tinting should not be undertaken for 4 weeks after your procedure.
  • Avoid Retin-A, Chemical Peels and Microderms around the brow area once healed.
