Aftercare instructions for all facial and body waxing treatments
We hope you are loving that baby smooth skin! Now, let’s talk about how to take care of it from here.
Facial waxing:
If you received facial waxing (brows, lip, chin, etc.), it is important to avoid touching the area. This prevents bacteria from entering the follicle and causing post wax irritation or bumps. It is also important to wear your SPF every morning, and a physical sunscreen (mineral/zinc based) is preferred for post treatment. Avoid acids and scrubs for 24 hours after the wax. Exfoliate the skin gently 24-48 hours after your wax and follow with a gentle moisturizer.
Body Waxing:
If you received body waxing (Brazilian, bikini, underarms, legs, etc.), it is important to minimize bacterial exposure by avoiding touching the area, wearing clean, loose, cotton garments, and for intimate areas, this means avoiding sexual activity for 24 hours.
Avoid exfoliation for 24 hours following the wax, then resume exfoliation with a gentle scrub or exfoliating cloth or glove 3 times a week therafter. Apply a post wax oil or other approved, fragrance free gentle moisturizer each day.
