It's not recommended to cover post-peel flaking with makeup. Makeup can stick to the dry, flaky areas and actually make the texture more obvious. Additionally, your skin is sensitive after a peel, so introducing makeup could bring bacteria and potentially cause irritation.

For a treatment just 2 days before an event, opt for a hydrating or oxygen facial, or consider dermaplaning if you don't have active acne. These treatments provide quick radiance without disrupting your skin barrier or causing visible peeling that could be noticeable during your event.
Yes, you should cancel if your skin feels sensitive. Listen to what your skin is telling you and reschedule for a less stressful time. It's better to postpone the treatment than risk an adverse reaction that could affect your appearance for an important event.
Foundation turns grey on oily skin due to oxidation - a chemical reaction where the makeup reacts with your skin's natural oils and air. This is especially noticeable on Indian skin with warm, golden undertones when mixed with foundations that have cooler, pink or neutral bases.
Ask the salon to use long-wear, oil-free formulas specifically made for warm, oily skin. Request proper skin preparation with oil-controlling products, and ask them to use a translucent powder with a slight yellow tone to set everything, which helps cancel out any greyness.
Mention your concern about oily skin and previous grey foundation. Ask if they use anti-oxidant, oil-free formulas for warm, oily skin. Request a test application on your jawline to check in daylight after 30 minutes to see how the foundation reacts before committing to the full application.
Not necessarily. Powders can also oxidize and may look thick and cakey. A better option is often a matte, oil-free liquid foundation made for oily skin, lightly set with powder. This combination tends to last better and look more natural.
No, it's not normal. Frizz that quickly usually means the hair cuticle wasn't sealed properly during the flat iron stage, or the product was a mismatch for your hair type. You should get several washes before seeing even a little frizz.
It's really risky to layer chemicals, as this can cause severe breakage. A better approach is to have a professional check your hair's protein-moisture balance and consider a gloss or bond repair treatment instead of a full chemical treatment.
A professional blow-dry with a round brush and heat protector can temporarily tame frizz. If the frizz is severe, consider a sleek bun, braided crown, or hair accessories to cover up the texture on your wedding day.
Look for salons that specialize in 'corrective hair services' or 'bridal hair rescue.' Use platforms that show stylist specializations and have real client photos. Be transparent about your timeline and the treatment you already received.
The redness and burning usually lasts a day or two. However, the uneven, ashy colour can stick around for 3 to 5 days as your skin sheds. If the reaction is severe with blisters, it can take over a week to heal.
