AFTERCARE
-
Please treat your cosmetic tattoo as an open wound. It is important not to have anything covering it (i.e. lotions, makeup, neosporin or vaseline) for 10-14 days. You need to let it breathe to heal. Avoid dirt and bacteria.
-
Please do NOT pick or scratch or rub your brow. It can cause scarring and loss of pigment.
-
Day of treatment- gently blot with a damp cotton pad dipped in distilled water to clean excess lymph. Do this every hour for the full day to prevent hardening and forming a scab. Apply a very thin layer of the aftercare balm with clean hands. There should be a slight sheen.
-
Day 2-14- Apply aftercare balm 4-5 times a day. Remember no water, lotions or makeup during the healing process. Keep them dry. This is the most important part of your healing process.

We aim for perfection but everyone's skin is different and will react differently to pigment. Some skin will heal faster, retain pigment longer depending on health, age and lifestyle.
