For your safety and to achieve optimal results, please adhere to these instructions and requirements. Failure to follow any or all of the above requirements, including pre-care, or having any of the conditions mentioned in the contraindications, will result in being turned away from your appointment and incurring a cancellation fee.​

​

• (OPTIONAL) You may arrive at your appointment with your eyeliner filled in as you like. I will take into account the shape you like, but will also share my input & suggestions according to your natural shape & features. We will work together to reach the desired shape.​

• Having the procedure during your menstrual cycle may make you more sensitive to discomfort during your procedure.

• If you have been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, Graves disease, or have Thryroid issues PLEASE be aware that this may affect your sensitivity tolerance to the procedure, and may affect your final healed results.​

• If you are a smoker, your pigment will fade faster and the topical anesthetics used during the treatment will not last as long.

• If you arrive for your procedure with any abrasion, blemish, skin irritation, bruising, scabbing, skin rash or mole in the area that is to be tattooed, I will not do the procedure. No exceptions. You will lose your deposit and require another deposit to re-book another appointment.

• This procedure will NOT be performed if you are pregnant or nursing.

• Important Note- I must know if you are under the care of a Doctor for any medical condition. I must also know of any prescription medications you are on. If this pertains to you, please email me through the link on this website.

• If required (I will let you know in advance if applicable), you must provide a doctors approval letter the day of the procedure. If the letter isn't provided you will not be serviced and you will have forfeited your deposit. A new deposit and new appointment will be required.​

​​

👁️ CONTACT LENSES & LASH EXTENSIONS

• Contact lenses must be removed before your appointment
  → Please bring glasses to wear afterward

• Lash extensions must be removed prior to your eyeliner appointment
  → Extensions may be reapplied after full healing (typically 2–3 weeks)

​

🚫 6 MONTHS- 1 YEAR BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT

• If you have been on the prescription ACCUTANE, or similar, you must be off of it for ONE YEAR prior to your procedure. Any topical steroids or acne medication included. No exceptions!​

​

​🚫 4–6 WEEKS BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT​​​

• Be sure to stay away from SUN or tanning bed exposure for 30 days PRIOR to & AFTER your procedure. If you show up for your appointment with a new tan or a sunburn, you will need to reschedule and will forfeit your deposit. As your skin exfoliates from sunburn, it will take the pigment with it. Also, pigment will heal darker on the skin that is tanned.

• Discontinue all lash serums, especially those containing prostaglandins (e.g., Latisse, GrandeLASH-MD, RevitaLash, Babe Lash). These products thin the skin which increases sensitivity, increases the risk of skin tears or bruising, and can negatively affect pigment retention and color.

• Avoid using : Retin A, Vitamin A, Retinols, Glycolic acids (or any type of acids meant to resurface your skin), lightening products such as Hydroquinone, Chemical Peels, Microdermabrasion, facials, or Photo Facials (IPL’S) 4 weeks before the appointment.

• Botox and filler on the forehead, temple, and eye area should be avoided 1 month prior to procedure for those that do not regularly receive injections. Those who do regularly receive injections must wait 2 weeks minimum.

• Keep in mind & make an effort not to sweat the day of your procedure or for 10 days after. Sweat contains salt, which will prematurely fade the pigment in the skin. You need to consider this if you lead a very active lifestyle.

​

🚫 14 DAYS BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT

​​

• Avoid spray tans or self-tanner on the face​​​

​

​🚫 7 DAYS BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT​​

• Stop using eye creams with active ingredients

• If you are prone to cold sores near the eyes, consult your physician about preventative medication

​

🚫 48–72 HOURS BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT

• No alcohol or caffeine 48 hours prior to and on the day of your procedure​​

• Do not take anything that will thin your blood such as aspirin, niacin, Vitamin E, Fish oil supplements or Ibuprofen unless medically necessary 72 hours prior to procedure. Tylenol is acceptable.​ ​​

• Reduce sodium (salt) as excessive sodium (can increase swelling)​​

​​​

🚫 24 HOURS BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT

• Avoid intense workouts or activities that cause heavy sweating

• Get a good night’s sleep

• Stay hydrated

• Do not apply eye makeup or heavy skincare around the eyes

​​​​​​​​​​

🧴 DAY OF YOUR APPOINTMENT
