I hope you are looking forward to your appointment.
I have put together a brief list of tips to follow to ensure your treatment goes as smoothly and lasts as long as possible.
Before your spray tan:
Immediately after your spray tan
(for the duration of development time, which will be confirmed depending on what product you use)
Do not:
Maintaining Your Tan:
A woman’s tan may develop differently due to various hormonal changes (ovulation, menstruation, pregnancy). It may be streaky, patchy, fade more quickly, produce a much lighter look or no colour at all.
The following products and chemicals may also have an impact on the look of your tan, its development or staying power:
AHA products (Alpha Hydroxy Acids -Glycolic, Lactic, Malic, Citric and Tartaric acids), anti-acne products that exfoliate or dry the skin (e.g. Accutane, and salicylic acid), antibiotics or other medications that affect your skin, Retin-A type products (Retin-A, Renova, Tazorac, Tretinoin), anti-aging products that "renew" "refresh" or otherwise exfoliate the skin, band-aid or adhesive tape, bar soaps (especially deodorant or antibacterial varieties), BHA Products (Beta Hydroxy Acids, e.g. salicylic acid), body hair bleach products, adhesive facial strips (e.g. Biore) or 'peel-off' masks, bug spray, perfumes, body sprays (spray clothing or a 'cloud' of spray that you can walk through, instead of directly on to skin), Dove soap, and Dove Shower gel, Curel lotions, Imperial Leather soaps and shower gels, facial masks and exfoliating scrubs, hair inhibiting lotions (Jergens etc.), makeup remover or oils used to clean away eye makeup, baby oil, toners containing alcohols or witch hazel in the top three ingredients, wax or depilatory hair removal products (Nair, Veet, Neet etc.), use of a loofah, scrub, mitt etc. for daily washing (use a gentle washcloth or soft shower poof instead).
If you exercise and sweat heavily your tan can fade faster, especially around your joints and between your breasts.
In winter, skin is often very dry, causing your tan to fade faster. To counteract this, apply moisturiser twice daily, using a lotion after showering on damp skin and heavier body cream, just before bed. Body butter can also be used twice daily. Regular, light exfoliation can be helpful.
People with oily skin tend to develop a lighter tan than people with dry skin. The oils tend to coat the skin while dry skin absorbs more products faster, causing it to look darker.
Please arrive without any makeup or products on your face ready for your facial.
After your facial treatment, the skin can be a little sensitive. For 24 hours, please avoid:
Dermaplaning Aftercare Advice:
It's normal for the skin to look red or a bit rough a few days following treatment, though this should fade quickly.
Facial Care Advice
PRE-TREATMENT RECOMMENDATIONS
1 week before –
1 day before –
Aftercare:
1. Use Sun Protection (Min SPF 30)
2. Hydration/ Moisturise
3. Avoid Harsh Products (strong acids or retinoids)
4. Gentle Cleansing: to remove impurities without irritating. Avoid exfoliating or abrasive cleansers for a few days post-treatment.
5. No Hot Baths or Saunas for 48 hours after
6. Post-Treatment Redness: Some individuals may experience mild redness or warmth immediately after the RF Facial. This is normal and typically subsides within a few hours. Applying a cool compress can help alleviate any temporary redness.
7. Avoid Touching, Makeup: Touching, extractions.
8. Stay Hydrated: Drink an adequate amount of water to support overall skin health. Proper hydration from within contributes to the skin’s natural radiance and recovery.
9. Have A good Consistent Skincare Routine:
Please allow the following waiting times for specific procedures (on area to be treated)
• Dermal Fillers / Botox - 2 weeks
• IPL / Laser treatments - 2 weeks
• Isoretinoin (eg. Roaccutane) - 6 - 12 months post treatment
• Laser Resurfacing/Ablative - 8 weeks
• Recent facial operations - At least 3 months post-surgery
• Strong chemical peels - PH lower than 3.1. - wait 2 weeks
• Tattooing / Cosmetic Tattooing 3 months
Stop using/taking 1 week before:
• Anti-inflammatory medications such as ibuprofen. These will interfere with the natural inflammatory process that is critical for your skin rejuvenation.
• Benzoyl peroxide / adapalene (Differin)
• Exfoliants and/or AHA or BHA
• Fish Oils / Plant oil/omega 3s (Sensitive/bruising)
• Ginseng/Ginko Biloba/St Johns Wart
• Hydroquinone / Koic acid / azelaic acid
• Retinoids
• Tropical Antibiotics
• Hair Removal, Waxing, and depilatory creams.
Aftercare
• Avoid touching the treatment area for up to 24 hours, particularly with unwashed hands, as may cause irritation and infection.
• DO NOT EXPOSE YOURSELF TO THE SUN. After you have undergone your microneedling procedure the skin channels will be completely open for up to 24 hours. Topical products should be avoided as well as staying out of the sun. Do not apply any sunscreen for 24 hours due to the chemicals that may be contained in the lotion. After 24 hours UV exposure should be minimised for 2 weeks and a minimum SPF 30 should be used.
• DO NOT USE ANY "ACTIVE INGREDIENT" SKIN PRODUCTS. Post procedure avoid any skin care product that has active ingredients. These commonly include things like AHA's BHA'S, Retinol, Vitamin C, Tyronaise inhibitors and other similar agents. The skin may be sensitised and such ingredients will exacerbate this sensitivity. We recommend avoidance for minimum of 7 - 14 days.
• AVOID THE USE OF MAKEUP AFTER TREATMENT. It is imperative that you let your skin "breathe" and recover for 24 hours after the procedure. The Skin channels are open, and using a makeup brush can cause further irritation And/ or infection. Wait 24 to 48 hours before you apply makeup to give your skin the necessary recovery time. You can use make up after 24 hours. Thoroughly clean your make up brushes before use.
• AVOID SWEATING. Avoiding activities that could make you hot and sweaty for 24 hours will prevent extra inflammation
• USE A COLD COMPRESS. You may use a clean, cold compress if you have excess redness.
• USE AN ANTIOXIDANT SERUM/ COLLAGEN STIMULATING PEPTIDES. Antioxidant serums have properties that assist in healing the skin. Serums assist in soothing the skin and further reduce irritation. Collagen stimulating peptides assist in giving the skin more collagen to help recover after microneedling and further aiding in the stimulation of collagen production.
Please do not put any mascara on before your appointment.

For Best Results:
You may notice a small amount of re-growth after a week or so. It can take up to 4 treatments for your hair to get on a growth cycle that gives best results.
Makeup:
Please arrive without any makeup, please cleanse, tone and moisturiser as normal in preparation for the makeup.
Hair:
Please wash your hair the day before, and do not heat style or put any product in your hair as hair will stay in place much better with a day+ of natural oils.
If you are having hair accessories please have these with you so we can incorporate them into the style, however, I do have some basic accessories with me to try with the style.
It might be nice to wear a light / white top to help you feel more bridal. We will start the trial with a consultation, where I will ask to see a picture of your dress, any Pinterest or mood boards you have of hair and makeup styles you wish to try.

Shellac can last flawlessly, with normal wear and tear, for at least 14 days.
