More information

What's Included

Thorough yet gentle treatment designed for delicate facial skin.

  • Personal consultation to understand your skin and goals.
  • Cleanse and protect the area.
  • Warm or hot wax chosen to suit sensitivity and hair type.
  • Precise removal on the upper lip or chin.
  • Tweezing for any remaining stray hairs.
  • Soothing post-wax care to calm and protect.
  • Home care guidance and maintenance plan.

Who It's For

Ideal if you prefer a smooth, tidy finish with minimal fuss. Suits fine or coarse facial hair, including hormonal growth on the chin. A comfortable alternative to tweezing or shaving when you want quick, consistent results.

Not suitable over active acne, sunburn or very sensitised skin. If you use prescription retinoids or have had recent peels or laser, wait until the skin has fully recovered before waxing.

Duration & Appointment Timing

A short, efficient appointment that fits easily into a busy day. Exact timing depends on hair type and whether you are waxing the lip or the chin, and will be confirmed when booking.

Arrive with clean, make-up free skin. Avoid heavy exfoliation, retinoids and direct sun on the area for 48 hours before your visit.

Aftercare & Maintenance

For 24 hours avoid hot showers, steam, swimming, strenuous exercise, sunbeds and make-up on the treated area. Keep skin clean, avoid perfumed products and try not to touch or pick.

Apply a light soothing gel if needed. Begin gentle exfoliation after 2 to 3 days to help prevent ingrown hairs, then moisturise daily. Rebook every 3 to 4 weeks depending on growth, and avoid shaving between appointments for the best results.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does a lip or chin wax hurt?
There may be brief discomfort as the wax is removed, but the area treated is small and the sensation passes quickly. A calming finish helps reduce any lingering sensitivity.
How long will the results last?
Most clients enjoy smoothness for 2 to 4 weeks, depending on their hair growth cycle. With regular waxing, regrowth often feels softer and finer.
Will I get redness or bumps afterwards?
Mild redness is common and usually settles within a few hours. Keep the area clean, avoid heat and make-up for 24 hours, and use a soothing gel to calm the skin.
Is waxing suitable for sensitive skin or if I use retinol?
Often yes with the right approach, but there are exceptions. Avoid waxing over sensitised skin, recent peels or prescription retinoids, and check your products before booking.
How should I prepare for my appointment?
Let hair grow to around 3 to 4 mm so the wax can grip. Arrive with clean, make-up free skin and avoid exfoliation, sun exposure and retinoids for at least 48 hours beforehand.
