How To Use An Epilady

'Tis the season for swimsuits, shorts and tank tops and everyone is anxious to get rid of unwanted hair and look their best. One of the most popular beauty gadgets on the market is the Epilady Epilator. With several different models to choose from, the Epilady Epilators can be used on the face, underarms, legs and bikini area. It removes hair with a gentle massaging action that is less painful than waxing and the silky smooth results last for up to 4 weeks - much longer than shaving!

Here is a little "how to" video showing the Epilady Epic Chic Corded Epilator (Model 813-12) in action. For best results, tilt the machine slightly and gently skim over the leg. Avoid pressing down on the leg as the hair needs to stand erect to be grabbed up by the tweezers.
