Using the appliance
General information about epilation and body puff
Epilating with the Satinelle Massage will leave your skin smooth
and hair-free for weeks.As epilation may cause skin irritation or
ingrown hairs in some women, we advise you to read the text
below.
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.
Epilation is easier just after taking a bath or shower. Make sure
your skin is completely dry when you start epilating.
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.
After epilation you can apply a mild cream or body milk to
soothe your skin and reduce skin irritation.
Use the exfoliating body puff in the shower. Regular massages
with the puff may help to prevent ingrowing hairs. Do not use the
puff immediately before or after epilation.
This appliance has been extensively tested on the underarms and
the bikini line. Some women will develop skin irritation when
they epilate these areas for the first time.We therefore advise
you to try out the appliance on a small patch of skin first.
