The underlying issue with dry skin is that it lacks in moisture (oil) and protection due to under production of sebum (oil) in the sebaceous glands (oil glands) of the skin.
This lack of natural protection and moisture causes the skin to become fragile and sensitive to external factors. Premature aging, fine lines and wrinkles are a major concern with dry skin.
Insufficient oil supply causes skin to lose elasticity and the aging process is accelerated. Dry skin can also become easily irritated by products, cold, heat, and sun exposure.
One pro of having dry skin is that your pores are virtually invisible! So when properly cared for your skin can look flawless!

Post care is key in the longevity of your microblading procedure.
During this procedure we use a fine sharp blade to make incisions into the skin in order to insert pigment. Because of this, your skin experiences a bit of trauma, which is why preparation and post care play such an important role.
Taking necessary precautions prior to treatment will ensure that your procedure can be performed safely and effectively. Please review Pre-Treatment guidelines.
After your procedure, your POST CARE washing and moisturizing instructions using your kit are as follows:
Gently cleanse lower half and forehead with your cleanser in the morning. When rinsing cleanser away, use a warm face cloth avoiding drip from forehead onto brows.
Dampen a clean gauze or cotton pad with the cleanser and gently wipe brows in outward motion. Blot dry with dry gauze/pad.
Once your brows begin scab or flake, apply a small amount of the moisturizer over the brows after washing in the morning and evening.
During your recovery, your brows may feel a bit itchy. Applying a cooling mask such as the Cucumber Recovery Mask reduces irritation.
You can apply a serum to excelarate the healing process and promote healthy cell regeneration in the recovering area.

POST-TREATMENT GUIDE
Hot temperatures will irritate your brows during the first 12 hours, therefore remain indoors and fan if necessary.
DO NOT touch brow with unwashed hands, doing so can cause infection.
DO NOT soak brows. Showers and baths are safe; keep your brows away from direct water contact as this may cause colour to fade.
Face washing and moisturizing instructions:
Gently cleanse lower half and forehead with your daily cleanser in the morning. When rinsing cleanser away, use a warm face cloth avoiding drip from forehead onto brows.
Dampen a clean gauze or cotton pad with the cleanser and gently wipe brows in outward motion. Blot dry with dry gauze/pad.
Once your brows begin scab or flake, apply a small amount of the moisturizer over the brows after washing in the morning and evening.
5. DO NOT use ANY makeup or SPF directly over the brow area until brows have completely healed. This may alter colour tone or blur strokes.
6. AVOID direct sunlight, this can cause the pigment to fade and irritate the skin.
7. DO NOT pick or lift scabs or flakes from brows, this may pull the pigment prematurely causing fading or gaps in strokes.
8. Brow can be lightly tweezed around area treated but not directly over for 3 weeks. Waxing procedure can be performed 4 weeks following procedure.
