Brazilian Waxing Aftercare Guide


Because smooth skin deserves gentle care

✨ Immediately After Your Wax:



  1. Avoid heat & sweat for 48 hours: No hot baths, saunas, steam rooms, heavy workouts, or tanning. Your pores are open and need time to calm down.
  2. Wear loose-fitting clothing: Let your skin breathe, tight leggings or underwear can cause friction and irritation.
  3. Hands off! Avoid touching the waxed area to reduce the risk of bacteria and breakouts.
  4. Avoid sexy time for 48 hours to avoid any bacteria or irritation.

















🧼 Cleansing & Moisturizing:


Here are a few of my favorites on my Amazon Storefront (proceeds go towards your local waxer, aka me.)

  1. Use a gentle, fragrance-free cleanser.
  2. Hydrate the skin daily after the first day. Choose a lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturizer or oil (like jojoba or aloe-based).
  3. Avoid harsh products with alcohol, fragrances, or active ingredients like retinoids or acids on the waxed area for 2-3 days.


















🚫 Avoid for 24–48 Hours:



  1. Pools, oceans, lakes, saunas, sweating (bacteria risk)
  2. Sex or intimate activity (friction = irritation)
  3. Tanning (sun or bed, can cause hyperpigmentation)
  4. Deodorants, perfumes, or lotions with alcohol if the wax area is near the bikini line.














💬 Common Post-Wax Reactions:



  1. Redness & sensitivity: Totally normal and usually fades within a few hours.
  2. Small bumps: Common and temporary, avoid picking or touching!
  3. Ingrowns: Stay on top of exfoliation and hydration. See recommended products below.
  4. Pinpoint bleeding during a Brazilian wax is the appearance of tiny, dot-like spots of blood on the skin’s surface, often caused by hair being removed from the follicle root in sensitive areas.














📅 Rebooking Tip:



  1. For the best results, book your next Brazilian wax every 4–6 weeks. Staying consistent reduces discomfort and leads to smoother, slower regrowth over time.

  4. Pretty Kitty & Body Oil - 1 oz : The perfect product when it comes to helping you reveal beautiful skin. Not only will it help prevent and treat ingrown hairs, but also soothe, hydrate, nourish, brighten, and moisturize the skin. This product is also non-comedogenic (wont clog your pores) so its perfect for your skins health.



Products I 100% recommend, these are chemical exfoliants and moisturizers.

  1. I personally LOVE a chemical exfoliant, especially if you are prone to ingrown hairs. The moisturizer is going to help soften your hairs so they don't curl up and clog. The chemical exfoliants are great because they contain glycolic and salicylic acids (AHAs & BHAs) for a deeper exfoliation. Here are a few of my favorites on my Amazon Storefront.
