FRECKLE CLIENTS:

If any of the following apply to you, you are NOT a good candidate for Freckle Tattooing:


Tanning/Tanning Beds: You MUST discontinue all excessive tanning if you want to go through with this tattoo procedure.

Use of active skincare products: Skincare products such as Retinol that are lightening, brightening or anti-aging can and will make your freckles fade faster. In some cases, the color of the freckles can change in tone as well.

Microneedling / laser facials: These will rapidly fade your freckles and are not recommended. If you are to receive laser treatment, please notify your laser technician as most lasers can and will change the freckle color.

Accutane: If you have taken Accutane, you must be at least 12 months post prescription completion to proceed with this tattoo service.

LIP BLUSH CLIENTS:

You should not receive Lip Blush if you have or have recently had -

* Rashes around the lip area

* Lip Filler (4 weeks prior)

* If you're prone to cold sores, take an anti-viral RX by your Dr. (VALTREX) or an over the counter supplement (LYSINE.) Take the supplement for 1 week prior to your appointment.

Pro-Tip: If you have dry/chapped lips the day of your appointment the pigment will not hold. We recommend gently exfoliating a few days prior  to your procedure (This can be made at home using brown sugar and honey.) After exfoliating your lips, moisturize your lips with your favorite lip balm! It’s important to keep your lips moisturized for best results.
