SKIN PREPARATION & TIMING

Preparing your skin before using your Bleame™ Crystal Hair Eraser is essential to ensure the effectiveness of the hair removal process. Follow these guidelines to guarantee a positive and comfortable experience, tailored to your skin sensitivity.

  • OPTIMAL TIMING FOR NORMAL TO TOLERANT SKIN: If your skin falls within the normal to more tolerant range, we recommend exfoliating one day before using our Bleame™ Crystal Hair Eraser. This gentle exfoliation helps remove dead skin cells and debris, promoting better results without compromising the integrity of your skin.
  • CONSIDERATE APPROACH FOR SENSITIVE SKIN: If you have sensitive skin, we advise exfoliating two days before using our Bleame™ Crystal Hair Eraser. This slightly extended interval allows your skin ample time to recover from exfoliation and reduces the risk of potential irritation or sensitivity caused by the combined effects of exfoliation and hair removal.

When exfoliating, remember to choose a mild exfoliating product and avoid harsh exfoliants or vigorous scrubbing. 

We want to make sure your skin remains calm and comfortable, especially before using your Bleame™ Crystal Hair Eraser. Always prioritize gentle care and maintain a positive approach to nurturing your skin.


PRECAUTIONS FOR COMFORTABLE HAIR REMOVAL

Your comfort and safety during the hair removal process are our top priorities. To ensure a pleasant experience, it is essential to follow these precautions:

  • AVOID POTENTIAL TRIGGERS OR IRRITANTS: Between exfoliation and using your Bleame™ Crystal Hair Eraser, it's important to avoid hot water, harsh soaps, or exfoliating scrubs that may further irritate your skin.

  • ALLOW YOUR SKIN TO COOL DOWN: Before using our Bleame™ Crystal Hair Eraser, ensure that your skin has cooled down from activities such as hot baths or sun exposure. Cooling down helps minimize skin sensitivity.

  • AVOID SENSITIVE AREAS: Refrain from using your Bleame™ Crystal Hair Eraser on skin areas that are already sensitive, irritated, or have open wounds, cuts, or rashes. Let your skin heal completely before proceeding.

  • COOLING DOWN AND RESUMING WITH COMFORT: If you happen to experience excessive warmth or discomfort, we recommend taking a break and allow your skin to naturally cool down. 

    Listen to your body and resume the process once the heat or discomfort subsides, and your skin returns to its normal state.

IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS

  • CATERING TO DIFFERENT SKIN SENSITIVITIES: We understand that individuals may have varying levels of skin sensitivity, including those with extremely sensitive skin. 

    If you fall into this category, it's important to be aware that even exfoliating two days before use may require extra precautions and potentially a longer interval to avoid any potential irritation or sensitivity. 

    We recommend taking the time to assess your skin's needs and finding the approach that works best for you.

  • MINDFUL PRODUCT SELECTION: Regardless of your skin sensitivity, it's always a good practice to check for potential allergens or irritants in any additional products you choose to use before, during, and after the hair removal process. 

    This includes exfoliating products, moisturizers, and shaving gel or cream. While hypoallergenic products are generally recommended as they are formulated to minimize potential irritants, be mindful of any specific allergies you may have and take the necessary steps to address them when selecting products.

  • UNDERSTANDING NORMAL SENSATIONS: You might feel a slight tugging or pulling, notice temporary redness, or even experience a mild stinging or tingling sensation. 

    Don't worry, these sensations are just part of the process and typically fade away shortly after you're done. If you have sensitive skin, it's understandable to be more in tune with these feelings. Rest assured, they're usually harmless and simply a natural part of hair removal. 

    Just remember to follow the instructions and consider any additional products you choose to use for a comfortable and personalized experience.

  • MAXIMIZING YOUR HAIR REMOVAL: We want to help you make the most of your hair removal process. 

    It's worth noting that using a shaving gel or cream alongside your Bleame™ Crystal Hair Eraser may create a slight barrier between the eraser and your skin, which can potentially reduce its effectiveness compared to using the eraser directly on the skin. 

    However, by omitting the use of shaving gel or cream, you can minimize the potential for additional ingredients that may cause irritation or sensitivity, especially if you have a history of sensitivity or allergies to certain products. 

PATCH TESTING FOR SKIN COMPATIBILITY 

  • Before using your Bleame™ Crystal Hair Eraser on larger areas, it's crucial to perform a patch test to ensure compatibility with your skin. 

    By following these simple instructions, you can gain confidence and prioritize the health of your skin.
  • Identify two small areas on your legs for testing, preferably far apart or one on each leg. It's best to test on your legs as they're scientifically less sensitive than your arms.
  • Cleanse the test areas with a gentle cleanser and tenderly pat them dry.
  • Test different methods to find your preferred technique:
  1. Dry Skin - Ensure your skin is completely dry, devoid of oils or lotions.
  2. Damp Skin - Maintain your skin slightly damp, but not excessively wet, and also free from oils or lotions.
  • Gently rub your Bleame™ Crystal Hair Eraser on each test area with light pressure and circular motions. 
  • Take note of the comfort level for each method during use.
  • Monitor the areas for 24 hours, and refrain from applying any other products.

AFTERCARE FOR HEALTHY SKIN

After the hair removal process, it's essential to provide gentle care and maintenance to keep your skin healthy and comfortable.

Follow these simple post-care steps immediately after using Bleame™ Crystal Hair Eraser:

  • GENTLE RINSE: Rinse the treated area with cool water, being mindful of its sensitivity. Pat the skin dry using a soft, clean towel, avoiding any harsh rubbing that could cause further irritation.

  • MOISTURIZE WITH CARE: Apply a fragrance-free, hypoallergenic lotion or moisturizer specially formulated for sensitive skin. 

    Look for products with beneficial ingredients like hyaluronic acid, aloe vera, chamomile, calendula, or colloidal oatmeal. Gently massage the moisturizer into your skin until fully absorbed. Regularly reapply to prevent dryness and maintain optimal hydration.

  • SOOTHING COLD COMPRESS: If desired, apply a cold compress to provide additional soothing relief. Wrap a clean cloth or towel around an ice pack or use a cold, damp cloth and gently place it on the skin for 10 to 15 minutes. Avoid prolonged exposure to cold, as it may have adverse effects on the skin.

  • KEEP YOUR ERASER IN PRIME CONDITION: After each use, rinse your Bleame™ Crystal Hair Eraser under running water to remove any debris, hair, or dead skin. Store it in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and humidity, to preserve its quality and effectiveness.


SKIN CARE RECOMMENDATIONS

To maintain healthy and comfortable skin, it's important to regularly follow these guidelines:

  • PROTECT YOUR SKIN FROM THE SUN: Avoid exposing the treated area to direct sunlight immediately after hair removal. Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 to shield the skin from harmful UV rays when going outdoors. Reapply sunscreen as needed, especially if the area is exposed to direct sunlight for an extended period.
  • ALLOW AMPLE REST TIME: Give your skin ample time to rest and restore its natural balance. While the recommended waiting time between sessions may vary based on individual factors like skin sensitivity and hair growth rate, it is generally advisable to wait a minimum of 48 hours before using your Bleame™ Crystal Hair Eraser again. Individuals with extremely sensitive skin may benefit from longer intervals.

  • CHOOSE SKIN-FRIENDLY PRODUCTS: Be mindful of the products and ingredients you apply to the treated area. Opt for gentle, hypoallergenic products specifically formulated for sensitive skin. Steer clear of scented lotions, fragranced products, or harsh chemicals that may cause skin irritation.

  • AVOID EXCESSIVE HEAT EXPOSURE: Refrain from subjecting the treated area to excessive heat, such as hot baths, saunas, or prolonged exposure to hot water. Excessive heat can heighten skin sensitivity and hinder the skin's natural balance.
