It is recommended to eat something before your appointment to make sure your blood sugar levels stay stable during the procedure.
No excessive alcohol or caffeine consumption 24 hours before your procedure. Alcohol and
caffeine can thin the blood, which causes the skin to be hypersensitive, and bleed/bruise
more easily.
Avoid blood thinning medications for 24 hours before the procedure. This includes Aspirin,
Niacin (Vitamin B3), Vitamin E or Advil/Ibuprofen, fish oils tablets. Please consult your physician if this is an issue.
Eyelash extensions should be removed 3 days prior to the procedure.
No eyelash perm and / or tinting at least 3 days prior.
Eyelash growth serums like Latisse bring extra circulation to the lash line area which results in more growth of hair / lashes. This can cause the skin to be hypersensitive and bleed easily. It is recommended to discontinue the use of these products at least 2 weeks before your treatment.
Do not wear any eye makeup on the day of your appointment.
If you wear contact lenses, please wear glasses on the day of your appointment.
Please Note: You will be more sensitive during your menstrual cycle.
POST CARE
Splash your eyes with water and wash off any pigment residue immediately after the procedure. Pat dry gently with a clean tissue.
Wash the skin around the eyes with water twice a day (morning & night) pat dry with a clean tissue.
Apply ointment 2-3 times a day for up to 7 days for thick eyeliner (OMIT FOR LASH LINE ENHANCEMENT).
Scabs will take about 7 -10 days to peel off. Do not pick at the scabs or peel them off prematurely.
Swelling and redness is normal for the first few days.
Slight stinging sensation in the first few days is also normal.
The colour will fade approximately 30-50% lighter when the scabs fall off. This is completely normal. Do not feel discouraged if the fading is more than you expected.
To achieve the perfect eyeliner, we need to see how your skin accepts the initial application and a touch-up appointment is where we will perfect the shape and colour.
No eye makeup is allowed until the scabs completely fall off.
Avoid sweaty exercises such as hot saunas, hot yoga, and swimming for a minimum of 7 days.
SWELLING
Swelling occurs up to 3 days after the procedure, especially in the morning.
Exercising the eyes can help reduce swelling and puffiness. Try blinking actively for 2 minutes in the morning.
To relieve swelling, you can ice the area with soft gel ice packs.
