Does getting a facial hurt?
It’s normal to feel slight pain upon completion of your facial, too. After all, your skin has been subjected to a lot in a short period of time.

Should my face hurt after a facial?
Redness. It’s normal for an area of the skin to experience redness after a facial treatment. It is more common in manual extractions that require force, like squeezing, to manage clogged pores and remove blackheads.
What should you not do before a facial?
- Wear clothing that is comfortable.
- Wear your make-up.
- Skip any strong at-home facial treatments the week before your appointment and any exfoliation treatments a few days prior.
- Stay out of the sun and away from tanning for five days before your facial.
- Know the names of the skin care products you are using at home.
Is it OK to wear makeup to a facial?
There’s no need – you can show up to your facial with your makeup still on, since your esthetician will just remove it all during the cleansing portion of the facial. The cleansing portion of the facial occurs even if you aren’t wearing makeup, so arriving with makeup on won’t take away any time from the treatment.
Can you wear makeup after facial?
“Can you wear makeup after a facial?” This question seems to pop up repeatedly, and the answer to that is, “Ideally, no.” Immediately following a facial, it’s probably best to stay away from your makeup (at least for 24 hours).
How many times should I get a facial?
Setting those factors aside, the general recommendation is for a facial every three to four weeks or once a month. That’s how long your skin’s life cycle is. After three or four weeks, your skin cells grow back. Facials help this process and assure your skin always glows.
