Lip and brow tattoos, also known as permanent makeup or semi-permanent makeup , have become increasingly popular for those who want long-lasting definition and a flawless look. However, during the summer, extreme weather conditions and sun exposure can challenge the durability and appearance of lip and eyebrow tattoos. In this article, we'll give you valuable tips on how to repair and protect your tattoo during the summer.
- Protect the tattoo with sunscreen : It is essential to protect your lip and eyebrow tattoo from damage caused by the sun's rays. Apply a lip balm with SPF or a broad spectrum sunscreen to the tattooed area. Make sure you reapply sunscreen every few hours, especially after swimming or strenuous exercise.
- Avoid direct sun exposure : In addition to applying sunscreen, try to avoid direct sun exposure during the hottest part of the day. Use a brimmed hat or umbrella to protect the tattoo from harmful solar radiation. If possible, try to spend more time in the shade to reduce your exposure to UV rays.
- Keep Skin Hydrated : Hydration is essential to maintaining the life and appearance of lip and brow tattoos. During the summer, use gentle moisturizers to prevent dryness and flaking. Avoid using harsh products that could damage the tattoo.
- Avoid using harsh chemicals : Avoid using harsh chemicals, such as alcohol-based cleansers or toners, on the tattooed area. These products can fade the color and affect the life of the tattoo.
- Avoid Excessive Exposure to Water : It is important to limit exposure of your lip and brow tattoo to excessive water and humidity. Avoid completely submerging the tattooed area in swimming pools, hot tubs or salty seas, as the chlorine and salt can fade the color of the tattoo. Also, gently pat the area dry after washing to avoid irritation.
- Avoid Heavy Makeup : Try to avoid applying heavy makeup to the tattooed area. In fact, it can clog pores and cause irritation. Opt for light, breathable makeup if needed to maintain the natural look of the tattoo.
