TIPS FOR SUCCESSFUL HAIR REMOVAL
Scrubbing
Scrubbing is a necessary step for successful hair removal. Done regularly, it:
- prevents hair from growing back under the skin,
- removes dead cells and refines the texture of your skin,
- prepares your skin to help it absorb skin care products.
Scrubbing done once or twice a week maintains a healthy and fresh skin. We recommend
scrubbing ideally the day before hair removal. The scrubbing will straighten the hair thereby
helping you to remove it. Avoid scrubbing just after hair removal.
Epilation
- In the bath: for maximum comfort, start your epilation a few minutes after relaxing in the warm
bath water. The heat will cause your skin’s pores to dilate making hair removal easier.
- In the shower: for good depilation in the shower, make sure your skin is thoroughly wet.
- On dry skin: you can also use the appliance out of the bath or shower, but be careful to remove
all traces of oil or moisturiser from your skin.
Epilation of your legs
• Turn the appliance on by pressing the button once for speed I or twice for speed II (13).
• Hold the appliance at an angle of 90 degrees to the surface of where hair is to be removed (14).
• Always work with both hands: carefully stretch the skin with one hand while moving the
appliance with the other. Only move your epilator against the direction of the growth of your
hair. Do not use circular or back and forth movements (15-16).
• Slowly move the epilator, while pressing down lightly. Careful not to press the appliance down
too hard against your skin; it might slow down and be less effective.
