If you want to know how to prolong its magic and enjoy a gorgeous outcome for the longest period keep on reading and figure out what you should avoid after the treatment. 

Things To Avoid After A Facial: Top 6 Rules To Follow

1. Don’t Wear Makeup

Your skin contains lots of pores which will enlarge as you do the treatment. You should let your skin breathe, calm down and rest, and only then apply your makeup. The golden rule is to apply it the next day for the best results. Only apply your night-time skincare and let your skin renew.

2. Don’t Pick Your Skin

It is normal to experience slight redness after a facial. All of your pores will be open and the dirt, bacteria, and debris will come out, leaving your skin prone to irritation, inflammation, and new wounds. This is why you shouldn’t pick or poke around to avoid any type of new breakouts. Let it ”do its thing” for the best results.

3. Don’t Expose Yourself to The Sun

Direct heat can include sunbeds, saunas, or hot spas, all of which you should avoid. Your skin will be raw, vulnerable, and very sensitive, and high heat will only harm it, possibly causing redness or irritation. Try to protect it from harmful UV rays by wearing a hat, or if really necessary a dermatologically approved SPF.

4. Don’t Smoke or Drink Alcohol

The smoke from cigarettes contains particles that can clog your pores (and you already know how bad it is for your health). The smoke particles can get trapped easily, leaving you with a poor outcome, along with faster aging. Alcohol, on the other hand, will leave your skin puffy and uneven, so avoid both of these the best you can. 

5. Don’t Wax or Shave

Hair removal and facials don’t mix well. This is due to the fact that you may experience skin shedding and leave your pores exposed. You shouldn’t wax your face or upper body area at all. You don’t want small wax particles to get into your freshly cleansed skin, do you?

6. Don’t Go to The Gym

Although you may be a fitness freak, staying away from the gym might be the best option for you. Gym means excessive heat and sweating, which does result in debris and gunk getting inside your pores. If you can go to the gym the next day and let your skin fully recover.
