Waxing will leave your skin silky smooth, but to keep it that way you’ll need to follow a post care regimen. The regimen is just a few easy steps to keep skin as beautiful and smooth as if you just got the wax. Whether you got a Brazilian bikini wax, or a shoulder and back wax, post care will be the same few easy routines...
Do the following:
- Use Tend Skin, a liquid product applied directly to the waxed skin, morning and night for the 3 days following the wax, then once daily afterwards.
- Avoid very hot water, hot tubs, saunas, and steam rooms for 24 hours after the wax.
- Use an exfoliator, such as an exfoliating towel, with a gentle bath gel on freshly waxed skin to remove dead skin cells and keep hair follicles clear, discouraging ingrown hairs.
Avoid the following:
- Tanning beds and direct sunlight for 24 hours after waxing
- Bar soap that will leave a film on your skin, encouraging ingrown hairs
- Harsh products with heavy perfumes or dyes for 48 hours, or until skin feels ready for them
- Waxing can lead to enlarged pores for a day or so, so for a day or so, avoid any activity that will cause friction to the area and keep it clean and protected
