​

• for EYELINER procedures, you must remove any false lashes/lash extensions one week prior to your appointment.

• for EYELINER procedures, you must discontinue lash growth serums for 2-4 weeks before your appointment.

• for LIP procedures, if you are prone to cold sores/fever blisters, you must pre-treat for 3 days before and 7 days after the procedure with medication obtained from your doctor.

• Your lips or eyes may be dry or itchy for a few days.
