BEFORE USING.

How To Use
NOTE: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).
As a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully in outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
1. If using a cartridge for the first time, remove roller applicator cap and shipping
stopper. Then reattach the roller applicator for use.
NOTE: Make sure the stopper is removed for product to work properly.
2. Wash the area to be waxed with mild soap and water, and dry skin thoroughly.
3. Do not apply hot wax near eyes or other heat sensitive areas such as skin injury,
eruption or surface growth.
4. Before use, make sure that the stopper has been removed from the cartridge and
applicator is tightly secured.
5. Place the wax cartridge into the heating chamber.
6. Plug the power cord into the device and then into the socket.
n The charging light will illuminate to confirm the device is heating. After 20
minutes the wax is ready for application.
n Unplug the device a nd start by applying the wax to a small area first to check
that the wax applies easliy and is not too hot.
n If the wax does not easily roll onto the skin, let the device warm the wax for
an additional 5 minutes. Unplug before beginning treatment.
7. Apply a thin layer of wax in the direction of hair growth. Make sure the roller
head is in contact with the skin to allow the roller to glide over the skin.
8. Immediately place a strip over the layer of wax, ensuring that there is at least
1cm at the bottom that is wax free. Rub the strip repeatedly over the wax in the
direction of hair growth.
9. Hold your skin taut to avoid discomfort. Holding the bottom of the strip, very
quickly and in one swift motion, pull the strip back on itself against the direction
of hair growth. The faster you move the strip the more effective it will be.
NOTE: Wax is not supposed to harden. Immediately remove cloth strip.
10.When you have finished waxing remove any residue with lukewarm water and a
clean cloth.
Underarms: Test a small area first, since the underarm area is sensitive. If
you are perspiring, be sure to use powder prior to wax use. Spread wax in the
direction of hair growth. Apply the cloth strip over the wax and remove the cloth
strip in the opposite direction. Underarm hair removal should be done in two

Usage Tips
For best results:
n
Hair should be between 1/4” and 1/2” long.
n Pull strip against the direction of hair
growth to remove.
n Keep the strip as close to the skin as
possible when removing, this is the
most effective way to remove hairs
from the root.
n Skin should be clean and dry, not
irritated and free from creams and
oils before waxing.
n For all uses after the first wax
session, manually rotate the roller to
get wax flowing through.
n When waxing, the temperatur e will
be maintained for approximately 15
minutes. If the wax cools or becomes
tacky, simply plug the device back in,
wait 10 minutes and resume treatment.
NOTE: Always check the wax
temperature after each warming.
