-
Gently apply 2 pumps of Blue Green Foam Soap (*water for eyeliner*), and remove with a soft and clean paper towel or gauze. Let air dry.
-
Apply a very thin layer of Aquatat ointment (*natural, moisturizing lip balm for lips*). DO NOT OVERSATURATE, as this will affect proper healing.

-
Avoid the gym, sauna, sweating, chlorine, and prolonged sun exposure.

Change your pillow case the first 2 nights.
-
Avoid blood thinners such as: alcoholic beverages, aspirin, Vitamin E, and Fish oil, as these affect healing.
-
Avoid wearing makeup on the tattooed area, until healed.
-
Brows will peel. DO NOT PICK OR PEEL, as this will result in color loss or scarring.
After the first week:
-
Color will begin to look softer.
(You may fill in brows at this time, as they may “disappear” for a few weeks)
-
Use sunscreen, to protect your brows.
-
Keep/ book your touch-up appointment!
Signs and symptoms of infection including, but not limited to, redness, swelling, tenderness, and oozing/ drainage at the procedure site, as well as elevated temperature, indicate the need to seek medical care.
​
Please Note;
Healing varies per client. The original color will soften 30-40% (or more). The touchup appointment is where we perfect any areas that did not retain as much pigment. Touch-ups are CRITICAL, not optional!
​
EYELINER AFTERCARE
​
No creams, makeup or mascara, or any other products on the treated area for 5 days.
​
Apply a sparse layer of organic coconut oil/grape seed oil/aquaphor with a clean finger or q-tip several times a day to keep liner moist. DO NOT let eyeliner dry out or scab.
NO Saline eyewash maybe used until eyes are completely healed. It will remove pigment.
​
Following the procedure, the area may be puffy for the first few mornings. A few options that may help/speed up healing are as follows: ice eyes often especially before bed and first thing in the morning, sleep somewhat propped up on your back, and avoid food high in sodium while the eyeliner heals.
Clean contacts can be worn 72 hours after the procedure.
