 Tips for best epilation res\Yults
 ● Please refer to “Quick User Car\f” as well.
 ●The hair remo

val is not permanent, so after t\lhe 2n\f use we 
recommen\f that you epilate the un\fe\lrarms about once a 
week an\f the arms an\f legs about once every two weeks.
 When epilating for the first time, or using for the first time i\ln a 
while, we recommen\f using t\lhe beginner cap. The beginner 
cap narrows the epilating ar\lea thus re\fucing th\le number of 
hairs remove\f at one time. It provi\fes a more gentle\l epilation 
for beginners an\f th\lose with sensitive skin. 
 • W

e also recommen\f warming the skin to s\loften the skin 
before use.
