It is a super convenient solution for those who want to save time on make-up on a daily basis. Permanent make-up always gives you a fresh look, even if you just got out of bed. However, after treatment, proper aftercare to maintain the desired result is important.
After setting permanent make-up for eyebrows, it is essential to keep the skin dry for the first 3 days and treat it with provided cream. I write about the care cream in this blog https://permanent-mooi.com/blog/nazorg-permanente-make-up/ I tell about aftercare permanent make-up. Water can cause infections and affect the pigment.

Avoid direct contact with water: During the first 3 days you may shower, but avoid your face. You take care of this one but avoid contact with water.
Gentle dabbing: you can shower after permanent make-up after three days, briefly. And you gently dab your eyebrows dry with a clean towel. Avoid rubbing as this can damage the pigment.
Avoid steam and heat: Also avoid prolonged exposure to steam and heat, such as saunas and hot baths, for the first eight days after treatment. Heat can irritate the skin and slow down the healing process.
Moisturise the skin: After showering, it is important to apply a moisturiser to keep the skin hydrated. Choose a cream suitable for sensitive skin and avoid direct contact with the treated eyebrows.

Aftercare for permanent eyeliner is similar to that for eyebrows, but requires some additional precautions due to the sensitive nature of the eye area.
Over time, you will get used to your permanent make-up and shine like never before. Avoid the sun’s rays though. In this video, I talk about why you should lubricate with a cream with a high SPF during a wonderful sun holiday.
