  • Keep your skin moisturised a few days prior to your appointment

  • Ensure your skin is clean prior to your appointment

Post Care

  • Avoid touching the area for 24 hours after your wax to avoid irritation and infection

  • Exfoliate the waxed area 48 hours after to reduce the risk of ingrown hairs

  • Wear loose clothing after your wax to avoid ingrown hairs and irritation

  • Avoid any perfumed products, soaps etc on the waxed area for 24-48 hours to avoid irritation

  • Avoid shaving or other forms of epilation between appointments to keep the hair growth cycle the same

  • Avoid hot showers, spas, and pools for 48 hours to avoid irritation.

  • Avoid swimming, spas, and saunas for 24 hours

  • Avoid playing with your lashes. - Rebook in 4 weeks


Spray Tan


Pre-care

  • Remove unwanted hair 24-48 hours before tan (wax, shave, laser etc)

  • Exfoliate 24 hours prior, this allows the dead skin cells to be removed and new ones to build back up as this is how tan gains its colour

  • Shower before your tan without soaps or wash your hair on the day of your tan to avoid any discolouration of your tan

  • Avoid wearing deodorant, moisturiser or perfume on the day to avoid discolouration

  • Bring loose dark clothing to wear after your tan and jandals

  • You will need around 2 hours after tan before you rinse off

Post Care

  • Rinse off at the time given which is usually 2 hours after your tan

  • Rinse off by allowing water to run over your body gently, with no soaps, body washes or hair washing until the water runs clear

  • Pat dry with towel (do not rub this will cause patches)

  • Please note your tan will develop between 12-24 hours

  • Avoid touching your body while your spray tan is drying as this can leave fingerprints on your body

  • Avoid activities that will make you sweat. Sweating creates streaks in the tan

  • Avoid chlorinated swimming pools that can react with the tanning solution and create an uneven fade in the tan

  • Moisturising the skin daily after 24 hours will help make the tan last longer and fade more evenly

  • Avoid the use of lotions or creams which contain AHA’s or Glycolic acid as they tend to exfoliate the skin and reduce the tan length

  • Use a neutralizing ph body wash

  • Wait 12-24 hours before wearing perfume, makeup and deodorants
