Cleaning the epilator head
4
After each use, switch off and
unplug the appliance. Take off
the soothing attachment and
brush out the rows of wheels.
5
Thoroughly clean the tweezer
element with the cleaning brush
and also disinfect it with a few
drops of Silk·épil cleaning fluid
or alcohol. While cleaning, you
can turn the tweezer element
manually. To take off the epilator
head, press the two release bars
on the front and back and pull
it off.
6
Give the top of the housing a
quick clean with the brush.
Put back on the epilator head.
Some useful tips
• For the first use or if not having
epilated for a long time, we recom-
mend to first shave longer hairs.
After 1-2 weeks, the regrowing,
short hairs are much easier to
epilate.
• In the beginning, it is advisable to
epilate in the evening, so that any
possible reddening can disappear
overnight.
•
Hair is easier to remove after bath-
ing or showering (but remember
your skin must be completely dry).
• After epilating, we recommend
applying Silk·épil cream or
another moisture cream to relax
the skin and relieve slight skin
irritations.
• It may happen that regrowing
fine hairs do not manage to get
through to the skin surface.
In order to prevent the risk of
ingrowing hairs, we recommend
the regular use of massage
sponges (e.g. after showering) or
exfoliation peelings. By a gentle
scrubbing action, the upper skin
layer is removed and fine hairs
can get through to the skin
surface.
