Get to know Silk’n Fresh

Silk’n Fresh effectively cleanses the skin and removes the outer layer of dry and flaky skin cells. It lifts out impurities from within the pores as well as any build-up of debris from within the folds of fine lines and wrinkles. The device uses vibrations to help smooth the skin’s surface, and massages your skin to improve blood circulation. Silk’n Fresh removes up to 6 times more makeup than manual cleansing, leaving your skin clean, smooth and soft. Silk’n Fresh is an electrical device and should be used with special attention to safety. Before use, it is important that you read and understand the instructions on how to use the device including after-use procedures, and follow them strictly. We recommend you refamiliarise yourself with the instructions in this manual before each treatment.

Device controls & settings

1. Charging
   Before first use, your device needs to be fully charged. For best results, charge your Silk’n Fresh for 12 hours before using it for the first time, even if there is some residual charge left in the device as a result of quality control procedures.
   1. For your safety, make sure the device is completely dry before charging.
   2. Connect the adapter to the stand/charging cradle and connect the adapter to the electricity supply. Then place the device in the stand/charging cradle.
   3. When charging, the charging light is red and blinks continously. When fully charged, the charging light is constant green.
   If you are charging for the first time but the charging light is constant green, you still need to charge the device for 12 hours.
   4. We recommend you unplug the stand/charging cradle and store the adapter after each full charge until you need to charge the device again.
   We recommend you charge the device fully at least every 3 months to sustain battery life.
   Do not attach wet brush heads when charging the device.

2. Indicator lights and function settings
   Your Silk’n Fresh is easy to use and has just two buttons and two indicator lights. Refer to the diagram at the front of the manual to see the location of each feature.Button| Action| Function / Mode

3. What types of face wash can I use?
   You can use a wide range of liquid face washes with Silk’n Fresh. For best results, we recommend that you:
   only use face washes and not all-purpose body cleansers.
    use a face wash that has a runny consistency. In other words, it should be easy to pour the face wash into the dispenser. In fact, the dispenser will not release face wash if it is too thick.
   The consistency of the face wash affects the amount the device can dispense in one dose. A face wash with a thinner consistency will dispense more easily than one with a thicker consistency.
   Do not use face washes that contain exfoliating beads or other particles.
   

4. Adding liquid face wash
   To add face wash, follow these steps:
   1. Open the dispenser lid. Put your thumb in the groove to open the lid.
   2. Gently and slowly, pour the face wash into the dispenser. It’s important not to pour the face wash in so fast that it creates bubbles, because this will stop the face wash from flowing correctly. 3. When the face wash reaches the maximum level mark, close the dispenser lid.
   4. To empty the dispenser or to clean it, refer to section 7.3 Cleaning the dispenser.

Treatment plan

For daily use, but not more than twice a day.
We recommend cleansing in these areas: forehead, nose, chin, cheeks and neck.
The recommended treatment time is 10 seconds per area.
Silk’n Fresh is designed to cleanse your skin in just 1 minute. We recommend that you do not to exceed this time.

Get started!

1. Select the brush head suitable for your skin type. Gently push the brush head onto the nipple which sits on top of the brush attachment point , until you hear a click.
   Make sure that the nipple covers the metal attachment point before you start your treatment. This will prevent it from touching or irritating your skin.

2. Pour the face wash into the dispenser (see section 4.3 What types of face wash can I use?, and section 4.4 Adding liquid face wash).

3. Dampen your face with lukewarm water.

4. Moisten the brush head with lukewarm water. Do not use a dry brush head on the face or neck, because it may cause skin irritation.

5. Press the control button to turn on the device. The device automatically starts in the low speed vibration mode.

6. To select the mode you want, keep pressing the control button to cycle through the modes (see section 4.2 Indicator lights and function settings).

7. To release face wash, hold the device in an upright position and press the dispensing button once, then release. It may take a second or so before the dispenser releases the face wash. The device will release face wash for about 3 seconds. If you need more, press the dispensing button again.
   For first time use, press the dispensing button a few times until face wash is released.

8. Gently press the brush head against your skin and move it in an upward circular motion. There’s no need to apply any pressure.
   Try to avoid delicate skin areas such as around the eyes or lips.

9. To finish, rinse your skin with water, and pat dry with a towel.
   The device is set to switch off automatically after 1 minute. However, if you change modes during a treatment, the timer will reset to zero and will start again.

Cleaning & maintenance

Use warm water up to a maximum of 45ºC / 113ºF.

1. Cleaning the brush heads
   Clean the brush head after each use.
   Switch the device off. Rinse with warm water and mild soap to remove any build-up that may have accumulated. Then shake off any excess water.
   Dry the brush and the brush head with a towel. You can also dry the brush head by switching the device back on, and rubbing it against a towel for 5-10 seconds.
   We recommend you replace used brush heads every 3 months, or earlier if you see that they are worn.
   Do not allow face wash to accumulate on the brush heads.

2. Cleaning the device and charging cradle
   We recommend that you clean the device after each use, and the stand/charging cradle once a month. Before cleaning:
    Remove the device from the stand/charging cradle.
   Disconnect the stand/charging cradle from the electricity supply.
   Do not use abrasive cleaners or chemicals to clean any parts.
   Clean the device or stand/charging cradle with a damp cloth using a mild detergent, then wipe it dry with a clean cloth.
   To remove any residue of face wash around the nipple, remove the brush head, and wash the nipple and the surrounding area with warm water. Then wipe it dry with a clean cloth.
   Do not clean the device or any of its parts in the dishwasher.

3. Cleaning the dispenser
   It’s important to clean the dsispener from time to time and not to leave face wash in the dispenser for a long time without use. This is because it will dry up and solidify. We recommend you clean the dispenser at least once a month, especially if the device hasn’t been used for some time, or won’t be used regularly.
   Fill the dispenser with warm water and close the dispenser lid. Shake the device and then open the dispenser lid to let the warm water and face wash residue run out. Repeat this until the dispenser is clean.
   When you have filled the dispenser with warm water, press the dispensing button a few times to clean the inside of the attachment point.
   After that, refill the dispenser with face wash.

4. Replacing the brush head
   1. To remove the brush head , simply grip the outer plastic base of the brush head with one hand, and the device handle with the other, and pull upwards until it snaps loose.
   2. To attach a brush head , place the center of the brush head on the nipple.
   3. Gently press the brush head and push down until it clicks into place.
   

5. Replacing the nipple
   The nipple releases the face wash for use. You can replace the nipple if you see it is damaged or worn.
   1. Remove the brush head.
   2. Remove the old nipple and replace with a new one.
   3. Put the brush head back in place.

6. Storage
   You can leave the device in the stand/charging cradle and use it as a countertop stand even when you are not charging the device.
   If you don’t plan to use the device for some time, we recommend you store it in a dry place.
