...and I broke out all over the area after a couple of days! I don't what to do about it and I don't know why it happened. Any remedies? Should I get my brows waxed again? Thanks in advance! (:

I usually brake out if I don't do this but I go straight home n wash my face n put my regular skin care on then I use salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide the day after my skin has healed. N I rarely get pimples around my brows. They put baby oil on my face after wards even when I ask them not to n it drives me nuts. Just be sure to wash your face n don't put the acne treatment on till the day after or it'll burn like hell.

Ya the baby oil is what's doing it! They freaked smother it all over my face and I look like an oily hot mess so I also go straight home n wash my face cause of my acne prone skin.

Azulene oil. Lots of spas use it after you get your brows waxed to calm the skin. Try it out and see if it helps. Sally Hansen includes it in their wax strip kits.

Baby oil? what the?..
I've been getting my brows waxed for awhile. if you break out days later are you sure it was from the waxing? is that the only area you broke out? because that's not usually. usually it will show up sometime that day. next morning latest..

I can only get waxed on my arch, the top of my brow breaks out. the skin is different on different areas of the face. I would advise not to wax that area of you're sure that's y you broke out. or talk to the person who performed the waxing n talk about other options. maybe using a different wax, or different soothing oil after or not waxing at all.

When I ask them not to put the oil on my face I definitely don't get as many spots maybe it's irritating my skin.
