SATINELLE PRESTIGE - Epilator PHILIPS - Free user manual and instructions

USER MANUAL SATINELLE PRESTIGE PHILIPS

With your new Satin ICE you can remove unwanted hairs quickly, easily and effectively.The combination of the proven epilating disc system with the newly developed contour-following skin cooler constitutes a revolution in epilation.Thanks to the natural numbing effect of ice on the skin, the new Satin ICE makes epilation more comfortable and less painful than ever.The result is a silky-smooth skin and a hair growth reduction of up to 50%, assuming you use the appliance regularly (every 4 weeks). The Satin ICE is particularly suitable for the legs. The rapidly rotating epilating discs catch even the shortest hairs (up to half a millimetre!) and pull them out by the roots.As a result, your skin stays smooth for up to four weeks and regrowth is soft and downy.

ENGLISH Using the appliance General information about epilation

Epilation is easier just after taking a bath or shower. Make sure your skin is completely dry when you start epilating. 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.After epilation you can apply a mild cream or body milk to soothe your skin and reduce skin irritation. Before epilating longer hairs on sensitive skin areas, shorten them with a trimmer or a pair of scissors. 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. Epilation can lead to ingrown hairs or minor skin injuries, which may cause inflammations due to penetration of bacteria into the skin. It is therefore important to clean the epilating head very carefully after each use. Epilating the legs Make sure your skin is clean, entirely dry and free from grease. Do not use any cream before you start epilating. 1 Slide the protective sleeve onto the skin cooler (fig. 3). The protective sleeve prevents an unpleasant sensation of coldness in your hand while using the appliance. Occasionally the pivoting head may freeze onto the skin cooler and doesn't move when you take the skin cooler from the freezer.The pivoting head will start pivoting again after you have passed it over your leg a few times.
