Can i wax my eyebrows while using the acne medication differin?

Question

i want to go get my eyebrows waxed in two days and i don't want them to wax my skin off because i am using differin which has made my skin dry. i am using moisturizer but i was just wondering if it is ok to go get my eyebrows waxed while i am on this acne medication.

Answer 1

You can, but itll definitly hurt a little more then normal.

It makes your skin more sensitive.

I recommend getting off differin until after you get your eyebrows done, then get back on it.

Answer 2

Yes, just use more moisturizers.

Answer 3

You arent supposed to wax when you are on acne medication at all, but you can totally get youre eyebrows threaded. Wherever you live, search on google for eyebrow threading places near (bblach your address)  

Threading is like extreme plucking, no chemicals involved, and can pluck virtually every hair on your face, and it cost MUCH less than waxing because a cotton string is involved rather than muslin and wax.

Answer 4

I use this too and i think that as long as you dont use the medication around your eyebrows for the next couple of days then it shouldn't be a problem to get them waxed. I would definitely still keep using the moisturizer too to make sure.

Answer 5

why would you put differin under your eyebrow?

Answer 6

I'm not familiar with differin but i would say that since you have acne i wouldn't even want to take the chance of waxing them. Whenever I get mine waxed I usually breakout in that area, so I have just been tweezing them. Sure it takes longer, but you wont break out.

Answer 7

Best to ask your dermatoligist

Answer 8

Just MOISTURIZE like crazy starting now, and always.
