Risk & Safety Guidance

Possible Risks

There is the potential to have an allergic reaction to the products used during a lash lift. This could cause redness, swelling or rash.

It is recommended to only repeat a lash lift every 6-8 weeks, as more frequent treatment can overtreat the lashes and cause them to become brittle or thin.

Pre-Treatment Guidance

To be able to provide you with the treatment, please ensure you follow the below guidelines:

• Remove eye makeup, contact lenses and false eyelashes before your appointment.
• Avoid curling your natural lashes for at least 24 hours prior to treatment.
• If possible, stop using waterproof mascara 48 hours before your procedure, to avoid residue left on the lashes.
• If there is any indication of eye infection, or any other eye related condition, please wait until this is fully cleared before scheduling your treatment.

Post-Treatment Guidance

For the best results, please ensure you follow the below guidelines:

• Do not get your lashes wet for the first 24 hours after a lash lift. This includes showering, swimming, sauna and steam rooms.
• Avoid applying cosmetics and makeup for the first 24 hours post treatment.
• Try not to touch or rub the eyes, or pull on your eyelashes. It is vital to leave the lashes alone for the first 24 hours after a lash lift. This
  is the settling period and interference during this period may affect the lift results.
• Try not to sleep face down. This can affect the position of the lashes.
• Rebook a subsequent lash lift for 6 - 8 weeks time, to continue to have beautiful, hassle free lashes.

Possible Risks

There is some risk mostly related to skin irritation or allergic reaction caused by the chemicals. This can include swelling, redness, peeling, itching and/or bumps on the skin. The side effects may occur directly above and beneath the eyebrows, but they can also extend to the eyelids.

Brittle or damaged brow hair can occur if brow lamination is repeated too often. Please leave at least 6 weeks between treatments.

Pre-Treatment Guidance

To be able to provide you with the treatment, please ensure you follow the below guidelines:

• Avoid wearing makeup, or remove it prior to treatment.
• Inform your therapist of any previous irritation during brow procedures

Post-Treatment Guidance

For the best results, please ensure you follow the below guidelines:

• Redness and mild swelling is normal after your treatment.
• Avoid putting water on your brows for the first 24 hours.
• Gently brush your brows into position every day with a clean, dry spoolie, which will be suppled by your therapist.
• Do not apply any brow creams, serums or makeup for 48 hours after your brow lamination.

Possible Risks

There is a risk of skin irritation or allergic reaction and this can be due to a number of things. Waxing can cause redness, swelling or irritation. There is also a possible risk of burns if the wax is too hot. It is also possible to react to chemicals within tinting products.

Pre-Treatment Guidance

To be able to provide you with the treatment, please ensure you follow the below guidelines:

• It is best to arrive to your appointment makeup-free. This includes foundation, eyeshadow and brow filler or powder.
• Please inform your therapist if you are taking any topical facial and/or skincare medications like Retin-A, Accutane etc.
  or have any skin conditions.
• No spray tan, or self tanning products to be applied for 3 days before your appointment.

Post-Treatment Guidance

For the best results, please ensure you follow the below guidelines:

• Do not touch the area for 24 hours.
• Do not apply any products to the area for 24 hours.
• Do not get eyebrows wet for the first 24 hours.
• No extreme heat treatments (eg. very hot baths or showers, saunas), swimming or excessive sweating within the first 24 hours.
• Surrounding skin should return to normal within 24 hours after treatment.
• Apply aloe vera gel to soothe any lingering irritation from waxing.

Possible Risks

Risks may include an allergic reaction to products used in the salon. Slight irritation, temporary redness or sensitivity, especially for those with sensitive skin, may occur following the treatment.

Pre-Treatment Guidance

To be able to provide you with the treatment, please ensure you follow the below guidelines:

• Don’t wax or shave for 48 hours before your facial treatment.
• If you are using an oral medication that is known to thin the skin (such as Roaccutane), it is recommended to discontinue
  treatment for 3 months before having a facial treatment.
• Avoid the sun! Do not get sun burned prior to your treatment.
• Don’t over-exfoliate in the 2-3 days leading up to your appointment.

Post-Treatment Guidance

For the best results, please ensure you follow the below guidelines:

• Avoid picking, squeezing or touching your facial area after treatment.
• Please do not cleanse or apply additional products to your skin for 4-6 hours following your facial treatment.
• Do not apply make-up for the rest of the day, following treatment. Let your skin stabilise and rest.
• Skip the gym. No sauna use or heavy sweating, as the increased heat in the skin and sweat can be irritating to freshly
  exfoliated skin.
• Avoid the sun and drink plenty of water.
