PATCH TESTING IS A MUST! 

Conducting a test patch on a small area of your skin is crucial. Over 24 hours, check for any adverse reactions to the patch test area. Ensure both your skin and the HS Crystal Hair Remover are completely dry. 

Once you have achieved a successful patch test, cleanse your skin to remove any oils or lotions. 

Thoroughly dry your skin AND your HS Crystal Hair Remover before proceeding to hair removal. 

We advise; no hot shower/bath prior to hair removal and wait at least 24 hours before or after exfoliating. 

Exfoliate at least 24 hours before or after to using the helloskin Crystal Hair Remover. This timing helps to prevent any potential skin reactions and reduces the risk of increased redness. 

WHAT NOT TO DO!

Do not use the hs Crystal Hair Remover for an extended period in one area to avoid skin irritation. Instead, after a few minutes, move on to another section and return later to address any remaining hair. If you encounter thick or resistant hair in any area, such as the elbows or knees, avoid working on it continuously to prevent skin irritation. 

Do not use on sensitive areas including the face and neck, bikini area and armpits. The skin in these areas is thin and extremely sensitive and there is high chance you will experience adverse reactions. 

Do not use immediately after a shower or bath. The skin is more vulnerable at this time because the warmth and moisture from a shower can make skin softer and more permeable, which may increase sensitivity and the likelihood of a reaction. Waiting until your skin returns to its natural state can help minimise any potential adverse effects.
