Using the appliance
General information about epilation
◗ Epilation is easier just after taking a bath or shower. Make sure
your skin is completely dry when you start epilating.
◗ When you use the appliance for the first time, we advise you to
try it out on an area with only light hair growth to get
accustomed to the epilation process.After epilation you can apply
a mild cream or body milk to soothe your skin and reduce skin
irritation.
◗ Before epilating longer hairs on sensitive skin areas, shorten them
with a trimmer or a pair of scissors.
◗ We advise you to epilate before going to bed at night, as this will
allow any skin irritation that may develop to diminish overnight.
◗ Your skin may become a little red and irritated the first few times
you use the epilator.This phenomenon is absolutely normal and
will quickly disappear.As you use the appliance more often, your
skin will get used to epilation, skin irritation will decrease and
regrowth will become thinner and softer. If the irritation has not
disappeared within three days, we advise you to consult a doctor.
◗ Epilation can lead to ingrown hairs or minor skin injuries, which
may cause inflammations due to penetration of bacteria into the
skin. It is therefore important to clean the epilating head very
carefully after each use.
Epilating the legs
Make sure your skin is clean, entirely dry and free from grease. Do not
use any cream before you start epilating.

doesn't move when you take the skin cooler from the freezer.The
pivoting head will start pivoting again after you have passed it over your
leg a few times.
