Wet/foam epilation

Before use

Using

•

This epilation head is for legs/arms, so do not use it to your underarms

and bikini-line.

•

Trim your hair before epilating for the first time or if you have not epilated

for a long time.

1. Wet your skin.

2. Remove the cap.

3. Wet the discs and place a small quantity of liquid body

soap on the discs.

4. Turn the s

witch on to the 1 or 2 position and then

epilate.

(1=low speed epilation/2=high speed epilation)

Foam makes the epilator slide better, so you can move it fast. Always

wash the discs well after use to remove any residual soap.

Dry epilation

You can also epilate without wetting your skin or the discs.

For best epilation results

Before use

Using

•

Apply the epilator at a right angle to your skin

and press gently while moving it slowly

against the hair growth.

•

When using the appliance, pull your skin taut

where the area is prone to sagging (on the inside

of the knees and elbows).

•

Rub your skin to lift short hair.

Move the epilator with the side that has the foam keeper facing the front.

•

Do not remove the frame of the epilation head.

•

Do not use if your hair is longer than 5 mm.

Reddening might appear for your first use. Cool towel will help if you feel

pain or there is a rash.

•

We recommend regular use of massage sponges or exfoliation to prevent

ingrown hair.

Wet/foam Shaving

Before use

Shaving

1. Attach the shaver head.

2. Wet your skin.

•

Shaving with soap lather makes the skin slippery for a closer shave.

•

Do not use shaving cream, skin cream or skin lotion as it will clog the

blades.

3. Turn the switch on to the 1 or 2 position.

(1=low speed shaving/2=high speed shaving)

•

Hair removal is easier and less painful when the hair is short.

•

Slide the pop-up trimmer switch up to cut long hair.

•

Press gently so that the whole of the blade is in close contact with the

skin and the surface of the blade does not move up and down.

Shaving the bikini line with the bikini comb

Place the bikini comb onto the shaver head and slide trimmer up.

•

When the bikini comb is in place, make sure the comb is in close contact

with the skin.

Dry shaving

You can also shave without wetting your skin or the discs.
