-Your skin may become a little red and irritated the first few times
you use the appliance. This phenomenon is absolutely normal and
quickly disappears. As you use the appliance more often, your skin
gets used to it and skin irritation decreases. If the irritation has not
disappeared within three days, we advise you to consult a doctor.

away from scalp hair, eyebrows, eyelashes, lips, inner labia, clothes
etc.
-Do not exfoliate immediately after epilation, as this may intensify
possible skin irritation caused by epilation.

may cause serious skin irritation.

or aggressive liquids to clean the appliance.

Using the appliance
The epilator is intended to remove hairs by the root in the intimate area (the
outside and inside of the outer labia), the underarms, the bikini line and
hard-to-reach areas such as knees and ankles.
Warning: Do not use the epilator on the inner labia.
10 English

You can also also use it to epilate the lower part of your face (chin, cheeks
and the area above your upper lip) and the area between your eyebrows.
Warning: Do not use the epilator on scalp hair, eyebrows,
eyelashes and lips.
The appliance can be used wet or dry.
Epilation tips
-Wet: We advise you to start epilating on wet skin, as water relaxes the
skin and makes epilation less painful and gentler. Use your common
shower gel or foam for smoother epilation.
-Dry: If you epilate dry, epilation is easier just after taking a bath or
shower. Make sure your skin is completely dry when you start epilating.
-General: We advise you to epilate before going to bed at night, as skin
irritation usually disappears overnight. Make sure your skin is clean,
entirely dry and free from grease. Do not use any deodorant, makeup or
cream before you start epilating.
-General: Epilation is easier and more comfortable when the hair has the
optimum length of 3-4 mm. If the hairs are longer, we recommend that
you shave first and epilate the shorter regrowing hairs after 1 or 2 weeks.
Alternatively, you can trim the hairs to 3-4 mm before you start epilating.
