Pre & Post Care (Lash Extensions) | Beauty Brows & Beyond

FACIAL PRE CARE:

It is ideal that you remove your makeup before arriving, especially if you wear full coverage. If you must wear makeup, I can remove your makeup, but please be advised this will take approximately 5 minutes off your facial time.
Do not arrive with a freshly washed and blow-dried hair style as your hair will be covered with a turban. While I will make every effort protect your hair from wetness, there is a possibility your hairline and/or hair might get wet.
Let me know if you’d like to leave your mascara on. Some clients feel naked without any mascara on, especially if they have errands to run after their appointment.
After the facial, you will want to take it easy the rest of the day. A facial is a relaxing treatment, and it is nice to extend this relaxing time for the rest of your day.

FACIAL POST CARE:

After a facial treatment, the skin can be a little sensitive. The following advice will ensure you continue to benefit from your treatment.

Avoid touching the skin to prevent bacteria or germs from your fingers getting onto your skin.
Wear sunblock to protect your skin from UV rays.
Avoid direct heat (intense sunlight & sunbeds) and indirect heat (sauna, hot bath, shower) for 48 hours after treatment.
Avoid makeup for 24 hours to allow your skin to breathe and to support the skin-cleansing effect of the treatment.
Don’t have any other facial skincare treatments within 48 hours of your facial to allow your skin to recover from the treatment and reap all the benefits.
Do not apply any other exfoliating skincare products for 72 hours after facial.
Always cleanse, tone and moisturize your face; to prevent loss of moisture, protect the skin from makeup and to keep the skin soft and supple.
Always remove all traces of makeup at the end of the day.
Do not apply perfume or perfumed products to the treated area within 48 hours.
Drink plenty of water (recommended 6-8 glasses per day). This is to help flush out the toxins from your body now that your lymphatic drainage system has been boosted by your treatment.
Don’t have any other facial treatments for 24-48 hours to allow your skin to recover from the treatment and reap all the benefits.

POST CARE AFTER ADVANCE TREATMENTS

Use an SPF on your face to protect it after any advanced facial.
Avoid extremes of temperatures- the wind, effects of central heating as this can have a dehydrating or damaging effect on the skin and your skin may be more vulnerable straight after an electrical treatment.

MAINTAINING RESULTS AFTER TREATMENT

Increase your water intake to 8 glasses a day.
Decrease alcohol and smoking to keep skin healthy.
Follow your home care routine.
Use products as advised by your beauty therapist – these should be specific for your skin type, concerns and budget.
Use a sunscreen daily.
Always wear a good sunscreen as this prevents ageing and protects your skin.
If you have any adverse reactions please contact us as soon as possible.
Protect your skin in harsh climates e.g. cold winds and hot sun.
For long term results get regular facials, at least once a month.
Eat balanced meals.
Get plenty of beauty sleep.
For long-term results and as a preventative measure, book your facial once every 6 weeks (the ideal scenario) or once every 3 months (the least).
