A facial can leave your skin looking fresher, cleaner and more hydrated, but a little preparation beforehand can help you get even better results.
At Threading Station in East Grinstead, Palak always recommends keeping things simple before your appointment.
Avoid strong skincare products beforehand
Try not to use harsh exfoliants, retinol or strong acids for at least 24 to 48 hours before your facial.
These products can leave the skin more sensitive during treatment.
If you have sensitive skin, you may also find our guide on threading vs waxing for sensitive skin helpful.
Stay hydrated
Hydrated skin usually responds better to facial treatments, so make sure you drink enough water before your appointment.
Arrive with clean skin if possible
You don’t need to arrive completely makeup-free, but lighter makeup can help speed up the treatment process.
Avoid sunburn before your facial
If your skin is sunburnt or irritated, some treatments may need to be adjusted to avoid further sensitivity.
Tell your therapist about your skin concerns
Everyone’s skin is different. Let Palak know if you have sensitive skin, dryness, acne or irritation so the treatment can be tailored properly.
Aftercare matters too
After your facial, keep skincare gentle and avoid heavy exfoliation for a day or two.
