Caution: HALAWA should not be used on skin that is sunburnt, cut, chapped, or sore; nor over weak scars or varicose veins, moles or warts or after peeling. It should not be used by anyone with loose skin. Do not sunbathe or use sunbed for at least 8 hours before or after use.

Use HALAWA on sensitive areas only when you have perfected the technique elsewhere e.g. on your legs. Slight momentary discomfort is normal. This is reduced by fast removal from taut skin. Red spots may show but will disappear within a short time. If irritation continues, discontinue use.

Keep the strip as close to the skin as possible. Do not pull off upwards.

Preparation:

The skin must be dry and oil free. If necessary dust with powder.

When stored at room temperature HALAWA has a pliable consistency and is ready to use. If too soft, place the closed tub in the fridge until just pliable. If too firm, gently heat in an bowl with warm water. Avoid any humidity entering the tub.

Test temperature on back of your hand before applying (37°C recommended).

Cut strip to size required. Leave 5 cm free of HALAWA at the end of the strip to make a handle to pull with.

2. Cut hair to 1 cm length, it necessary.

3. Armpits must always be treated in two stages (see diagram).

4. Press strip onto the area where HALAWA has been applied, massage thoroughly and pull off the strip inwards with one very quick movement.

5. Wash immediately with ice-cold water.

6. Wait for at least 24 hours before applying deodorants.

Wash off HALAWA with lukewarm water and refresh skin with a cold rinse. Apply Aloe Vera Gel to cool skin.

Strips can be washed, dried and reused many times. HALAWA dissolves by itself in warm water.

With a small amount of HALAWA between thumb and forefinger you can pull out individual hairs.
