RELATED: How to Groom Your Brows at Home Like a Pro When it comes to brow tinting, stay away from hot showers and excessive perspiration, both things that can reduce the life of your color, as much as you can. You should also avoid using harsh stringents, toners, or chemical peels near the brow area as that can strip away pigment. “Excessive sun exposure will also expedite your brow tint breakdown, so if you do want to sit on your private balcony during quarantine, use an SPF lip balm on your brows. This will give you hold and sun protection at the same time,” says Healy. If you want to reverse discoloration damage, Jablow recommends dabbing a non-acidic, whitening pen on discolored spots. IntelliWHITE’s kit ($50; intelliwhite.com) comes with a mouthguard to help the gel stay on the teeth, has a water-based formula with xylitol to condition, and holds a neutral pH level of 7 to prevent tooth sensitivity. It’s definitely not a bad idea to give your hairstylist a call for a personal consultation and some advice, adds Cisnero. “I strongly advise clients not to do anything that involves bleaching their hair at home. Glosses (while still left better in the hands of professionals) are far less risky than lifting your hair lighter.” Unless you’re super experienced, you might also want to refrain from at-home dermarolling for the time being, says Rodrigues. “Without professional supervision, it isn’t guaranteed that something won’t go wrong. Since you aren’t able to go into the office if a treatment goes south, stick to topicals until you’re ready for your next treatment.”
