1. Warnings
Important information on safety – Read before using
Using the Homelight epilator cannot be used by everyone. Before using, read the following guidelines.
For more information or personal advice, please visit the website www.babyliss.com or the website
for the distributor in your region.
Finally, if you are unsure about using the Homelight epilator, please consult your dermatologist or your GP.
1.1. DO NOT USE the Homelight epilator on naturally dark skin.
The Homelight epilator will remove unwanted hair by selectively attacking the pigments in the
hair. The amount of pigment in a person's skin determines not only the colour, but also the level
of risk to which the user is exposed when using a form of depilation that uses light, regardless of
which one. The darker the skin, the higher the risk will be.
The treatment of dark skin with the Homelight epilator may lead to side effects, like burns, blisters and
changes in skin colour (hyper or hypopigmentation).
DO NOT USE the Homelight appliance on naturally dark skin!
1.2. DO NOT USE the Homelight appliance on tanned skin or after recent exposure to
the sun!
Using the Homelight appliance on skin recently exposed to the sun may have side effects, like burns, blisters
and changes in complexion (hyper or hypopigmentation).
DO NOT USE the Homelight appliance on tanned skin or after recent exposure
to the sun! Such exposure may cause serious burns or severe damage to your skin.
Avoid exposing yourself to sunlight for 4 weeks before treatment with the
Homelight epilator, and for 2 weeks following treatment.
