Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Lid Waxing.

Yes. At Simply Beautiful Facial Spa, our trained estheticians use gentle wax and precise technique, plus pre-treatment assessment and optional patch testing to minimize risks. Certain conditions like active infections or recent eye procedures require postponement; we’ll advise during your consultation.

Most sessions are brief, usually 10–20 minutes, depending on hair amount and sensitivity. Consultation and preparation add a few minutes. We prioritize precision and safety, so appointments are scheduled to allow careful technique without rushing.

No. Lid Waxing targets surface hairs around the eyelid, not eyelashes or follicles. When performed properly by a professional, it does not thin lashes or skin. Repeated aggressive treatments can cause irritation, so we use conservative, safe techniques to protect hair and skin.

Clean skin free of makeup and lotions, avoid retinoids or exfoliants for 48–72 hours, and limit sun exposure before your visit. Arrive with natural lashes and inform us about medications, recent eye procedures, or sensitivities to ensure safe treatment.

Avoid rubbing, applying eye makeup, or harsh products for 24–48 hours. Use a cool compress and gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer if needed. Avoid direct sun exposure and chemical peels near the eye until skin has settled to prevent irritation or infection.

Yes. We often combine lid waxing with brow, upper lip, or cheek waxing in one session. Scheduling allows sufficient time to ensure safety and comfort. Inform your esthetician about sensitive areas so we can tailor techniques and sequencing for optimal results.
