Lip Blushing Aftercare
It is essential that you follow these instructions after your lip blush treatment, 70% of your healed results depend on how you took care of your lips during the healing process!
● Day 1: Blot the area with a cotton pad dampened with distilled water every hour. Apply a thin layer of the aftercare ointment prescribed by your artist.
● Day 2-10: Clean your lips after every meal – at least once a day – with a mild alcohol-free soap and water. Do not rub and be very gentle. Make it quick and dry the lips by tapping them with a cotton pad or a clean towel.
● Apply the prescribed ointment after every cleaning, and whenever you feel your lips are getting tight and dry. Keeping them covered with a layer of aftercare cream prevents heavy scabbing, and protects the area from external contamination.
General rules for the first 7-10 days, or until the peeling is over:
● Don’t touch your lips or pick at the scabs or skin that starts peeling off.
● Don’t get the lips soaking wet – no long hot showers, no swimming, no excessive sweating (this includes saunas and steam baths). Refrain from working out.
● Don’t get toothpaste on your lips.
● Don’t put any makeup or care products on the area besides the prescribed aftercare ointment.
● Don’t eat spicy or very salty foods – they’ll sting.
● Don’t drink anything too hot – it’ll trigger swelling.
● Don’t drink alcohol – it will burn and dry out your lips further.
● Don’t expose your lips to the sunlight. No tanning in the sun or in tanning beds for 3-4 weeks.
● Don’t sleep on your face.
● Don’t get teeth whitening.
Tip: Refrain from eating for a few hours immediately after the procedure. Drink through a straw. Itching and flaking may occur during the first 10 days of healing. Only use a Qtip or a cotton disk with post-care cream to relieve the itch, ensuring they heal properly.
