Extra Sensitive Skin?Updated 10 months ago

Skin Sensitivity. If you experience more than mild irritation, consider reducing frequency of use and ensure you are not applying to much pressure on the skin while using the crystal hair remover. 

Exfoliation and Sensitivity. If your skin is extremely sensitive we advise exfoliating 2 – 3 days before using the helloskin Crystal hair remover to allow time for your skin to go back to its natural state and avoid excessive irritation.   

If you notice redness or small bumps after using the hair remover, don’t panic! This is often a temporary reaction. To alleviate discomfort, apply a cool compress or an aloe vera gel to soothe the area. Should these symptoms persist or become significantly uncomfortable, its best to discontinue use and consult a skin specialist. Avoid further hair removal until your skin has fully recovered to prevent exacerbating the skin. 

Is your skin extra sensitive? For those with extra sensitive skin, it's recommended to allow a buffer of 2 to 3 days before or after exfoliating to use the crystal hair remover. This precautionary measure helps to minimise the risk of skin irritation and redness.
