Andrea thanks for the tips! I was wondering about the scrubbing part, I was thinking to get a layer of dead skin off would help the tendskin get to where it needs to go and help it work better. Thanks for clearing that up for me. I'm going to use a washcloth in the morning. I can say that after drenching my skin this morning, I'm already seeing the peeling you're talking about around some of the bumps, especially the really big ones. A couple of the big ones have gone flat, and gone from red or pink to white, and there is some flakes. That's a positive. We'll see what happens after two weeks!

Thanks RJC. I think somebody mentioned this before, but my recommendation is to make sure you wear shorts while applying Tend Skin. I spilled just like two drops on my nether region and GOOD LAWD did it BURRRRNNNNNNN... ![[Embarrassed]](images/icons/blush.gif)

Hi, everyone. I recently purchased the Emjoi Classic hair remover from QVC. It worked fine, but of course, they don't tell you about the bumps. I mostly got it to rid myself of this menopausal hair I am getting on my face--now my face is covered with bumps. Do they go away like regular pimples? I just ordered the Tend Skin, but last night I put OXY-10 on them! Help!

Thanks RJC, and another question for everyone. I go to the tanning room about three times a week. Should I lay off the visits temporarily, or perhaps the heat will help? Thanks! Joan

These devices should not be used on male facial hair, but there are rotary epilators designed to remove women's facial hair. My recommendation for further research would be the Braun Silk-epil Facial Hair Remover EF-20.
Tend Skin can also be great for drying up a blemish-- I had Mount St. Helebs about to erupt on my cheek the other day, but a Q-tip with a little Tend Skin cleared it up in about 30 hours! ![[Big Grin]](images/icons/grin.gif)

You might also try a cool damp washcloth immediately after, followed by 100% pure aloe gel (not lotion or cream, and no additives like menthol).
Definitely avoid sun or tanning beds until your face has settled down. Also, avoid makeup unitl it's not red.

Hey Ted, I remember you from the Nisim boards. Did you stop using Kalo?
