BIKINI LINE
The epilator can safely be used for trimming the bikini line. If the hair in this
area is too long (normal if it has not been removed for some time), first careful-
ly shorten it with scissors or a beard trimmer. During epilating stretch the skin
tightly with your free hand and possibly extend the leg to prevent the formati-
on of skin folds during epilating.
HOW OFTEN?
At first, carry out epilation about once a week. Hair removal at short intervals
contributes to a weakening of the hair and keeps the skin smooth.
For persons with sensitive skin, weekly epilation is recommended as a matter
of principle. Epilation at even shorter intervals makes the process even gentler
and takes only a few minutes.
AFTER USE
To relax and soothe the skin after epilating, you may apply a moisturiser, aloe
vera lotion or a disinfecting aftershave lotion.
• Regular cleaning and care of the unit ensures the best results and extends
