Brow Aftercare

STEP 1: Day 1

Pat brows with a damp paper towel (use bottled water) every 2 to 3 hours for the first 24 hours to remove any buildup. Pat again before bed and again in the morning.

STEP 2: Days 2-7

Avoid using any oil-based products for the next 7 days. Gently wash the brows twice daily to remove bacteria, oils, dirt, and sweat. (Don’t worry, THIS DOES NOT REMOVE THE PIGMENT!)

STEP 3: Days 7-14

Gently wash your brows daily. If your brows feel dry, tight, or itchy, use a Q-tip to apply a “THIN” layer of Aquaphor before bed. Note: Your brows must be completely dry before applying Aquaphor. If applied too thickly, the pigment may not hold.

STEP 4: After Day 14

DO NOT pick, peel, or scratch the area, and avoid removing the scabs. It will take 7 to 10 days for your skin to heal completely. Afterward, apply sunblock regularly.

DO NOT

•  Wet brows for 14 days. If accidentally wet, pat dry immediately

• Touch brows with dirty fingers.

• Swim, sauna, jacuzzi or take steamy shower for 14 days.

• Pick, scratch or peel scabs off.

• Sleep on your face.

• Expose brows to direct sunlight-wear a hat when going outdoors. 

• Apply cosmetics on brows for 14 days.

• Wax/threading/tweeze for 3 weeks.

• Get facial, chemical treatments, peels, tan, botox for 4 weeks.

• Use cream containing Retin-A or Glycolic Acid on the brows.

Things to Avoid 

• • Do not wear makeup in the brows for 10 days.
  • Avoid scratching or picking the brows.
  • Limit showers to 5-8 minutes and avoid excessive water exposure to the brows.
  • Do not use acid or manual exfoliants on the brows.
  • Avoid sweating in the brow area for 10 days.
  • Stay away from swimming, saunas, UV exposure, tanning beds, acne products, hydroxy acids, laser light therapy, facials, threading, waxing, or removal products.

Day 2-7:

Always wash your hands before touching or cleansing the brow area.

Gently wash your eyebrows twice daily with water and an antibacterial soap like Cetaphil or Neutrogena. Use your fingertips to cleanse the area gently, wiping in an outward motion.

After washing, pat dry and allow to dry completely before applying a very thin layer of aftercare ointment with a cotton swab. Avoid over-applying.
