epilator or precision epilator. This phenomenon is absolutely normal and quickly
disappears. As you epilate more often, your skin gets used to epilation, skin
irritation decreases and regrowth becomes thinner and softer. If the irritation
has not disappeared within three days, we advise you to consult a doctor.

petrol or acetone for cleaning purposes.
