Facial epilation
●
Before use, make sure your skin and the epilation
head are thoroughly clean.
●
Turn on the appliance by sliding the on/off switch
(2) to the left or to the right. The rotating direction
of the tweezers depends on the direction you
move the switch when turning on. For best results,
make sure that the tweezers rotate against the
direction of hair growth.
●
To become familiar with the appliance, we
recommend trying it first on the chin or near the
outer corners of the mouth.
●
Hold the appliance with the tweezers against a
section of skin that you keep stretched with your
free hand. Carefully guide it with gentle pressure
against the direction of hair growth.
Do not press too hard as this may lead to skin
injury. To stretch the upper lip area, you may use
your tongue to push from below.
●
After use, slide the on/off switch to the «o» (= off)
position.
●
Carefully clean the epilation head using the
cleaning brush provided.
You may want to dip the brush into ethanol (70%).
Make sure that it is completely dry before you
re-attach it and close it with the protective cap.
●
To relax the skin we recommend applying a
moisturizing cream after epilation.
●
When epilating for the first time, it is advisable to
epilate in the evening, so that any reddening can
disappear overnight.
General information on epilation
All methods of hair removal from the root can lead to
irritation (e.g. itching, discomfort and reddening of the
skin) depending on the condition of the skin and hair.
This is a normal reaction and should quickly dis-
appear, but may be stronger when you are removing
hair at the root for the first few times or if you have
sensitive skin. If, after 36 hours, the skin still shows
irritation, we recommend that you contact your
physician. In general, skin reactions and the
sensation of pain tend to diminish considerably with
the repeated use.
In some cases inflammation of the skin could occur
when bacteria penetrate the skin (e.g. when sliding
the appliance over the skin). Thoroughly cleaning
the epilation head and your skin before each use will
minimise the risk of infection.
