EnglisH

- 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.
- Do not use the peeling glove immediately before or after epilation.

general information about epilation
- 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.
- Make sure your skin is clean, entirely dry and free from grease. Do
not use any cream before you start to epilate.
- Epilation is easier just after a bath or shower. Make sure your skin is
completely dry when you start to epilate.
- We advise you to epilate before you go to bed at night, as this allows
any skin irritation that may develop to diminish overnight.
