5 Tips To Get The Most Out Of Your Cosmetic Tattoo
Once you've had your beautiful brows cosmetically tattooed, you want to make sure that you're looking after them properly so that they last the full amount of time. On average, your cosmetic tattooing should be lasting between 12 and 24 months, depending on your skin type. Oily skin will fade a lot faster than normal to dry skin. However, these tips below will help you prevent premature Fading.
-
Is to wear SPF daily on your brows if you're going to be outside or working under bright lights. Sun is the number one reason why cosmetic tattooing pigments fade, so it's really important to protect them from UV rays.
We highly recommend O Cosmedics Un-tinted SPF 30 and have tested this on our clients who have had amazing results!
-
Is to avoid exfoliating of your brows. This includes vitamin A use. Exfoliating over the brows will encourage cell turnover, which will in turn make the pigment fade a lot faster. The best thing to do is just to exfoliate very lightly around the brow area, taking a bit more care not to go over top.
-
Is if you're going to be at the beach or again in the sun, make sure that you wear a hat that keeps your brows or cosmetic tattooing in the shade.
-
Is to avoid advanced skincare and treatments over the brows or your cosmetic tattooing, because this, again, will make them fade a lot faster. To find out if your products are too advanced for cosmetic tattooing, you can check with your health care professional. The other way to know is to look at the ingredients list and watch out for AHAs, glycolic acid, salicylate acid, and vitamin A. These products will fade your browse faster.
-
Is keep your cosmetic tattooing hydrated by using a daily moisturiser once a day over the area. This will keep the skin nice and fresh and stop any premature exfoliating of the pigment. Use your normal night cream or coconut oil over the brows to keep the skin moisturised, which will in turn help your cosmetic tattooing last longer!
