general information about epilation
Epilation is easier just after a bath or shower. Make sure your skin is
completely dry when you start to epilate.
When you use the appliance for the first time, we advise you to try it
out on an area with only light hair growth. This helps you get
accustomed to the epilation process.
For optimal epilating results, the hairs should not be longer than
10 millimetres (Fig. 2)
To epilate longer hairs, follow one of two procedures below: (Fig. 2)
1 shorten the hairs to a maximum length of 10mm with a trimmer. In
this case, you can start to epilate right away.
2 shave the hairs completely. In this case you can start to epilate after a
few days (the hairs must be at least 0.5mm long).
Your skin may become a little red and irritated the first few times you
use the epilator. This phenomenon is absolutely normal and quickly
disappears. As you use the appliance more often, your skin gets used
to epilation, skin irritation decreases and regrowth becomes thinner
and softer. If the irritation has not disappeared within three days, we
advise you to consult a doctor.
We advise you to epilate before you go to bed at night, as this allows
any skin irritation that may develop to diminish overnight.
Epilating with the leg skin cooler
Only use the leg skin cooler to epilate your legs.
Make sure your skin is clean, entirely dry and free from grease. Do not
use any cream before you start to epilate.
1 Slide the insulating sleeve onto the skin cooler. (Fig. 3)
The insulating sleeve prevents an unpleasant sensation of coldness in your
hand while you use the appliance. It also keeps the skin cooler cold as
long as possible.
Sometimes the pivoting cooling head freezes onto the skin cooler and
does not move when you take the skin cooler from the freezer. The
