Aftercare

General Nail Care: Moisturize: Regularly apply cuticle oil and hand cream to keep nails and surrounding skin hydrated. Protect: Wear gloves when doing housework, gardening, or using harsh chemicals to prevent damage and polish chipping. Avoid Picking: Do not pick at or peel off nail polish or gels, as this can damage the natural nail. Gentle Filing: If a nail chips or breaks, gently file the rough edge instead of tearing it off. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Limit exposure to acetone-based nail polish removers and other harsh chemicals that can dry out nails.

Immediate Aftercare (First 8-24 Hours): Avoid moisture: Refrain from showering, bathing, swimming, or excessive sweating for at least 8 hours, as this can disrupt the development of the tan. Avoid tight clothing: Tight clothing can rub against the skin and cause the tan to streak or fade unevenly. Pat dry: When you do shower, pat your skin dry instead of rubbing with a towel. Longer-Term Aftercare (Days 2+): Moisturize daily: Hydrated skin holds onto a tan longer, so moisturize with an oil-free lotion at least twice a day. Use gentle cleansers: Avoid harsh soaps and scrubs that can strip the tan. Exfoliate gently: After a few days, you can gently exfoliate to help the tan fade evenly. Avoid prolonged hot showers/baths: Hot water can accelerate the fading process. Consider gradual tanning lotions: If you want to extend your tan, use a gradual tanning lotion to maintain a sun-kissed glow. Avoid chlorine and saltwater: These can also cause the tan to fade faster. Be mindful of activities: Avoid activities that cause excessive sweating or friction, like intense workouts, until your tan is fully set. By following these aftercare tips, you can help your spray tan last longer and maintain a healthy, natural-looking glow.

Detailed Aftercare Instructions: Keep lashes dry: Avoid getting your lashes wet for the first 24-48 hours to allow the lifting solution to fully set. This includes showering, swimming, and steam rooms. Avoid heat and steam: Stay away from saunas, hot showers, and direct sunlight for the first 24-48 hours, as heat can weaken the lift. No makeup: Do not apply any eye makeup, including mascara and eyeliner, for the first 24 hours. Be gentle: Avoid rubbing or touching your lashes excessively, as this can disrupt the lift. Sleep on your back: If possible, sleep on your back for the first couple of days to prevent crushing or bending your lashes. Use a lash conditioner: Apply a lash conditioner daily to nourish and maintain the lift. Brush your lashes: Gently brush your lashes upwards with a clean mascara wand or spoolie brush to keep them from clumping or tangling. Avoid waterproof mascara: Avoid using waterproof mascara as it can be difficult to remove and may weaken the lift. Avoid oil-based products: Be cautious of using oil-based skincare or makeup products around the eyes, as they can break down the lifting solution.

After lash and brow tinting, avoid water, steam, and makeup for the first 24 hours. Gently cleanse with a mild, non-oily cleanser after the initial period. Avoid oil-based products around the eyes, as they can cause the tint to fade faster.

Avoid heat: Steer clear of hot baths, showers, saunas, steam rooms, and swimming pools for at least 24-48 hours. Heat can open pores and make the skin more susceptible to irritation or infection. Sun protection: Protect the waxed area from direct sunlight and tanning beds for 24-48 hours. Sun exposure can cause sunburn and increased sensitivity. Loose clothing: Wear loose, breathable clothing made from natural fabrics to prevent friction and irritation. Tight clothing can rub against the newly waxed skin, causing discomfort and potential ingrown hairs. Gentle skincare: Avoid using harsh soaps, lotions, or deodorants on the waxed area for at least 24 hours. Opt for gentle, fragrance-free products or those specifically designed for sensitive skin. No strenuous activity: Refrain from intense workouts or any activity that causes excessive sweating for at least 24 hours. Perspiration can irritate the skin and potentially clog hair follicles. Soothing products: Apply aloe vera gel or other soothing lotions to help calm and hydrate the skin. Tea tree oil can also be used for its antibacterial properties. Exfoliate gently: After a few days, gentle exfoliation can help prevent ingrown hairs by removing dead skin cells. Avoid touching the area: Refrain from touching or scratching the waxed area, especially with unwashed hands, to minimize the risk of infection. Consider ingrown hair treatments: If you're prone to ingrown hairs, consider using a treatment oil or serum after a few days to help prevent them. Seek professional advice: If you experience excessive redness, swelling, or signs of infection, consult a dermatologist or healthcare professional.
