As there is no downtime required after carbon facial, you can apply mineral makeup 2 hours after treatment if you wish. However, if you can avoid wearing makeup for the first few days whilst your skin is still red, this will provide the best results. It’s best to use an SPF moisturiser underneath and avoid any harsh chemicals contained in some makeup that can irritate your skin further.
It’s recommended to avoid any products that contain retinol for at least a few days. This is because retinol may irritate the skin further. Instead, moisturise daily using SPF protection as this will help to avoid over-exposure to sunlight and also soothe the skin. As you may experience some flaking or drying of the skin, moisturising regularly will help to alleviate this as well as skin tightness.
