Two of the most asked and most important questions. How to look after my Permanent Makeup treatment. And is there anything I need to do before my treatment?
So we have put together a PDF for you to take a look through, explaining everything! Hope it helps.
Hi guys, here is a quick video to show you how to perform a Permanent Makeup scratch test.
When you book an appointment with Rebecca, you will receive a patch test in the post. It’s important to check you don’t have any allergies to the pigment used during your treatment.
If you have any questions about this, feel free to give me a shout.
A question we’re getting asked a lot right now- How to strengthen your natural nails. So we’ve put together a little list of nail rescue products if you want to take care of your natural nails and give them a little TLC during the lockdown.
The Best website to get these from seem to be Nail Polish Direct. But we will pop all the links in this post. These aren’t the cheapest options out there but they are the ones we use in the salon so we can fully vouch for them! We’ll do some research on some cheaper alternatives for our next post also.
Firstly, you’ll want a good nail strengthener. Your nails will feel quite strange for the first few days after removing your acrylic or gel. And depending on how careful you have been whilst removing, they could be a little tender. This is quite normal, so try not to worry. We love the OPI Nail Envy and yes this stuff really does work! Next, you might want to use a ridge filler. Removing your own nails from home isn’t the easiest thing to do, and you may be left with some ridges 😥 This makes us so sad!
So this OPI ridge filler from the Ultimate Shine collection will be the perfect remedy.
Now time for some colour! If you dare 😂 There are tons of gorgeous OPI colours on this website. We recommend the Infinite shine range as they are long-lasting, quick-drying and sooo nice!
If you don’t want to wear a colour skip straight to the last step, which is to apply the Top Coat. Now, this is our ultimate hack! The OPI Infinite Shine Primer (not topcoat) is AMAZING as a Topcoat. It keeps your colour on for twice as long! It’s also super shiny.
We recommend reapplying your Nail Envy every couple of days to keep building strength.
Then remove everything once a week and start again.
Top Tip-Don’t rush. Leave plenty of time between applying each layer. I like to do one hand at a time so that I always have one free hand because I can’t bear the thought of not doing anything for more than 5 minutes 😂
We can not wait to see you back again to make your nails feel beautiful again. If you have any questions at all feel free to contact
Although we hate the thought of you having to remove your lashes, we are aware it may come to this. So we wanted to advise all of our lovely lash clients how to remove eyelash extensions safely.
On the plus side- this may be the perfect opportunity for you to have a little break from lash extensions (deep breath). So here it goes….
We recommend Nouveau Lash Extension Remover, you can purchase this online.
This product is a gentle formula that will effectively and comfortably remove your lash extensions in the comfort of your own home. Whilst conditioning your natural lashes and reducing any risk of damage.
Once you have this product please ensure you remove contact lenses before you begin.
Apply directly to the lash extensions using the sponge tip applicator and leave for 3 – 5 minutes before gently brushing along the lashes to remove the extensions.
Ensure you rinse away any excess residue from the product and use a saline eye wash if required.
Good luck and please don’t hesitate to message if you have any questions.
In the meantime, why not have a browse through Permanent Makeup or Skincare menu’s and start planning your pamper time for after the Lockdown 🙂
It pains us to say, it may get to the point where you need these instructions on how to remove acrylic or gel nails. So we put together some instructions for you…
Your nails are likely to feel dry and brittle and your hands will have a white powder residue on them from the acetone. Apply a moisturiser or cuticle oil (coconut oil will do) and if you have one, apply a nail strengthening product regularly. We recommend OPI nail Envy.
Good Luck! And if you need any help please comment below or follow us on Facebook for more tips and advice
