Epilation procedure?

2 replies

I'm lazy and usually just whizz the thing over my legs as and when.
This time I fancy a bit of a pamper so is this the best order to do things in :
Shower
Exfoliate
Epilate
Moisturise
Fake tan

How long after epilation can I moisturise? And how long after epilation and moisturising can I slap on the tan?

I wouldn't apply tan on the same day as epilation. The follicle is open & susceptible to infection. You should apply an after wax lotion which is soothing & antibacterial or a tea tree cream afterwards. Tan is ok 24 hrs later.

Thank you aqua. Fortunately I ran out of time with the tan application so that will have to wait.
