removes hair from the root all over the body so you’ll be soft and smooth for up to 4 weeks.

rence. Only use the epilator for use as described in this instruction booklet.
GENERAL INFORMATION ON EPILATION
This Remington
®
epilator has been designed to make the removal of unwanted hairs as efficient, gentle
and easy as possible. Its curved epilation head is especially designed to fit the contours of your body and
the hair guides channel fine, short and flat hair into the tweezer discs.
The rotating tweezers catch even the shortest hairs (minimum length 0.5mm) and pull them out by the
root. The hairs that grow back are soft and thin. Epilating leaves your skin smooth and hair-free for several
weeks.
If you have not used an epilator before, or if you have not epilated for a long period of time, it may take
a short while for your skin to adapt to epilation. The discomfort experienced at first is considerably
reduced with repeated use as the skin adjusts to the process.
Using an epilator may cause reddening or irritation of the skin. This is a normal reaction that will quickly
disappear. However, you should consult your doctor if the irritation has not disappeared within three
days.
All methods of hair removal from the root can result in in-growing hair depending on the condition of
the skin and hair. Regular exfoliation helps to prevent in-growing hair.
In some cases inflammation of the skin could occur when bacteria penetrate the skin (e.g. when sliding
the appliance over the skin). Thorough cleaning of the epilation head before each use will minimise the
risk of infection.
Some useful tips
When using an epilator for the first time it is best to try it on a small area to get used
to the process of epilation.
The optimum length for hair removal is between 2-5mm. Epilation is easier and more comfortable.
Take a warm bath or shower before epilating and exfoliate to remove dead skin cells. This will make
your skin more pliable, making the epilation process less uncomfortable.
Epilate in the evening so that any possible reddening can disappear overnight.
After use you can use a body cream or aloe lotion to sooth the skin and reduce skin irritation.
Regularly exfoliate after epilation to avoid in-growing hair.
