5 steps to amazing epilation
From special tricks for each part of the body to super smooth skin, the art of epilating has evolved. Are you getting your best performance?
1. Epilating works best when your skin is soft, so it's advisable to take a bath or shower before and afterwards, and ensure you are completely dry before you begin. Also, you might find your skin is slightly red afterwards, so it’s best to epilate the night before a big night out, rather than the same evening.
2. Applying creams or lotions to the skin before epilating can make it difficult for the tweezers to grab the hairs - Silk-épil 7 Xpressive Pro has been developed with pre-epilation wipes which cool and soften the skin prior to epilation, reducing pain and delivering a great skin feeling.
3. Rub the skin before you begin to lift the shortest hairs into an ‘upright’ position and give them a better chance of being ‘grabbed’ by the epilator.
4. Run the epilator in an upward motion, against the direction of hair growth. If needed you can also change the epilation direction to ensure an even smoother finish. When you get to your knee, stretch it out straight.
5. To soothe your skin and create a really sleek, smooth look and feel, apply a body cream after epilating.
