6. Operating Instructions
6.1 Facial Epilation
Use the epilator head for precise hair removal on areas such as the upper lip, chin, forehead, and for shaping eyebrows.
- Preparation: Ensure your skin is clean and dry. For best results, exfoliate your skin regularly to prevent ingrown hairs.
- Technique: Hold the epilator at a 90-degree angle to your skin. Gently glide the epilator against the direction of hair growth, applying light pressure. Move slowly to ensure all hairs are captured.
- Eyebrow Shaping: Use the epilator to carefully remove stray hairs around your eyebrows. Use the lighted mirror for enhanced visibility.

6.2 Facial Cleansing
Use the cleansing brush head for deep pore cleansing.
- Preparation: Wet your face and the brush head. Apply your preferred facial cleanser directly to your skin or the brush head.
- Technique: Turn on the device and gently move the brush in small circular motions across your face. Avoid pressing too hard.
- Duration: Use for approximately one minute, dividing your face into sections (e.g., T-zone, cheeks).
- Rinsing: After cleansing, rinse your face and the brush head thoroughly with water.
