INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR FACIAL SAUNA SYSTEM

Before beginning, cleanse your face, following your daily care routine. Lightly pat your favorite moisturizer or eye cream around the eye area.

USING YOUR FACIAL STEAMING UNIT

Your Facial Sauna includes two detachable cones:

Facial mask: Use for facial cleansing.
Sinus cone: Use for concentrated steaming.Place your nose in the sinus cone with forehead in a comfortable position close to, but not touching the curved rim. Relax as soothing mist promotes easier breathing; however, do not use as a room humidifier.
- Turn facial mask or sinus cone counterclockwise and lift away from base.
- Fill the water cylinder with cool or warm distilled water to the “MAX” fill line, as indicated on the side of the water reservoir. Pour water into the reservoir with measuring cup and plug it into a 120 volt AC household outlet. (See Figure 1)
- Place facial mask or sinus cone over unit. Lock by aligning bumps on facial mask or sinus cone with slots over water reservoir and turn clockwise. (See Figure 2)
- Press ON/OFF button to turn unit on.
- When the power is on, the ready indicator light will flash for 3 minutes as the water is preheating.
- When the indicator light has stopped flashing and nis steady, you may use the Facial Sauna. Unit will automatically shut off after 30 minutes.
- For a timed treat ment, the timer control can be set from 3 to 15 minutes by rotating the knob to desired time.
- Press the timer start button and the timer indicator light will go on.
- The unit will shut off and a buzzer will sound to indicate that preset time has expired.

NOTE: One fill provides between 10 and 30 minutes of soothing mist. If the facial sauna should run out of water, shut off immediately, then begin your facial again.

Cleanse your face and neck
Allow approximately 3 to 4 minutes for steam mist to develop, then place your face in a comfortable position close to, but not touching the rim of the facial mask or sinus cone. To avoid burning, do not pick up the unit while water is hot, because water will spill out.
If more steam is desired, place a towel over your head that so it covers the mask and sides of the steamer.
Close your eyes and relax as the soothing mist begins deep cleansing action.
Remove your face occasionally and blot with a cool, damp towel. Steam for a minimum of 5 minutes, but no longer than 30 minutes.
Immediately after steaming, rinse your face with cool water.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR FACIAL TOOL

The facial tool operates on AA batteries (not included). For battery insertion, gently pull down lower cap and insert batteries.
Snap the exfoliating brush attachment onto the unit, making sure it is securely attached.
Apply a generous amount of your favorite exfoliating cream to your face.
At the speed of your choice, massage the cream on your face in a circular motion, making sure not to exceed two minutes.
Use for 10-second intervals per area beginning with the forehead; avoiding the eye area, move downwards toward the cheek and nose area then to your chin area. This step exfoliates, thoroughly cleans and removes dull skin cells. Rinse face and pat dry. Next, apply cool water or your favorite astringent to close pores and seal in moisture.
Now you are ready to apply your favorite moisturizing lotion by using the sponge applicator. Dot your forehead, cheeks, nose and chin with a generous amount of moisturizer and smooth the cream into your skin. Apply light to medium pressure and use upward, circular strokes. After just one personal facial with the Facial Sauna System, you’ll find your skin looking fresher and healthier.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING BATTERIES

Always purchase the correct size and grade of battery most suitable for intended use.
Replace old batteries of a set at the same time.
Do not mix old and new batteries. Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc) or rechargeable (nickel cadmium) batteries.
Clean the battery compartment by blowing away any debris prior to batter installation.
Ensure the batteries are installed correctly with regard to polarity (+ and -).
Remove batteries from equipment that will not be used for an extended period of time.
When batteries begin to fail, remove promptly

SPECIAL PAMPERING TIPS FOR DELICATE AREAS

THE EYE AREA

Give special care to the eye area during your personal facial by lightly massaging additional moisturizer or eye cream on eyelids and under your eyes before you begin.

THE NECK AND THROAT

Apply your favorite moisturizer to your entire face.
Mist your face for only 5 minutes, following Instructions for Using Your Facial Sauna System.
Tilt your head backward so your throat is approximately 2 inches from the facial mask.
Mist your throat for 2 minutes. For best results, accelerate moisturizing process by gently turning neck from side to side.
