Before diving into this essential step, let’s keep these precautions in mind: 

  • Avoid triggers or irritants such as heat, like hot baths, and harsh products that may cause irritation or sensitivity before and after using your Skin Sonic.
  • Avoid sensitive, irritated, or wounded areas. Let your skin heal completely before proceeding.
  • Be mindful of products before and after hair removal. Carefully check for potential allergens or irritants in your cleansers, moisturizers, exfoliating products, and shaving gels or creams. Check for allergies and choose products wisely.



PATCH TESTING

To ensure compatibility, follow these simple steps: 

SKIN PREPARATION, TWO DAYS AHEAD

Using mild products, gently exfoliate and cleanse your skin from dirt, debris, and dead skin cells two days before using your Skin Sonic. This prevents ingrown hairs and minimizes the risk of irritation. On the day of use, make sure your skin is clean and calm for optimal results.

TEST ON DRY AND DAMP SKIN

Conduct a patch test on two small areas of your legs, preferably one area on each leg:

  • To check for any adverse reactions or sensitivity.
  • To determine whether the dry or damp method works better for you. 

On one leg, try it on dry skin, free of oils or lotions. Then try it on slightly damp skin on the other leg, making sure it’s not too wet. 

GLIDE, SLOW AND STEADY

After powering on, position the Skin Sonic at a 90-degree angle against your skin and glide it gently and steadily in circular motions in the direction of hair growth on each test area. 

Refrain from applying products and observe for 24 hours after the patch test. If there’s no intense redness, irritation, itching, or discomfort during or after the test, you're all set to enjoy the benefits of the Bleame™ Skin Sonic!

Please keep in mind that every individual's skin is unique and each one may have different experiences with each method. What works best for one person may not be the same for another. Take note of your results and adapt your routine accordingly to achieve the most effective and comfortable hair removal experience with the Skin Sonic
