Eyeliner
Aftercare
Healing usually takes about 3 – 7 days. The pigment will appear very sharp and dark immediately after the procedure because it is still sitting on top of your skin, and has not yet settled in completely.
The healing process.
The pigment may rub off but don’t panic — the color will gradually soften. Once healing of the skin starts taking place, the eyeliner will look like dry skin. Which might give the impression that the color pigment is fading too quickly — this is just superficial color and dry cells being naturally removed from your skin. Do not pick or scratch the area, after couple days this will subside.
It is highly recommended to wear sunglasses to avoid exposure sunlight, this helps prevent the color from fading prematurely.
The day of treatment
