To increase the sleek effects of epilation, it is also
important to take extra time to care for your skin.
• Try to absorb as much moisture into your skin as possible, for added
smoothness. Exfoliate skin with a body scrub once a week. Make sure
to rinse off properly.
• The quickest way to lock moisture into your skin is with body oil, applied
within 5 minutes of getting out of the shower. A body lotion is a great
alternative.
• Pay particular attention to dry areas like elbows, knees and heels
when exfoliating.
• If your skin looks dull and you’re going out, reach for a body lotion with
a hint of sparkle – it will hydrate your skin and also ‘lift’ your skin tone.

Epilation: Common
questions answered.
Does more hair grow back if I epilate?
No, this has been proven in dermatological tests. In fact, studies show that ongoing
epilation reduces the amount of hair regrowth.
Will my hair grow back darker?
No, your hair will not actually grow back darker after epilating. It may appear so,
however, because the hair that grows back has its natural colour and is not bleached
by the sun or the use of soap, etc.
Which is the best time to epilate?
Evenings are the perfect time for your epilating session. You will feel relaxed, and any
minor skin irritations that may occur, including little bumps and redness, will disappear
over night.
Is epilation painful?
Silk-épil epilators have been developed especially to minimize any discomfort and
irritation. Pre-epilation wipes from Olay prime the skin beforehand and massaging
rollers help to relax the skin as you use the epilator. Being able to use the product in
water also reduces discomfort and irritation.
Is it safe to use the Braun Silk-épil 7 Wet & Dry in the shower and bath?
Braun Silk-épil 7 Wet & Dry is 100 per cent waterproof and is safe for usage in or out of
the shower and bath. The product features an automatic shut off mechanism that
ensures the appliance only operates once the cord is removed from the main power
and recharger dock. This safety mechanism guarantees that the appliance cannot
be taken into the water and operated so there is no safety concern of using an electric
appliance in/with water.
