Perform a patch test before use – see side of box for instructions. To use, be sure skin is clean and free of makeup and oil. Squeeze tube to dispense cream, and apply a thick, even layer to desired area using the smooth side of the tip, covering hair completely. DO NOT RUB IN. After 3 minutes, test a small area by wiping cream away with a damp tissue or the nubbed side of the applicator. If hair does not come off easily, leave on a few minutes longer. DO NOT EXCEED 10 MINUTES. To remove, wipe cream away with the nubbed side of the tip, then wipe any remaining cream with a damp tissue and rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. DO NOT RUB OR USE SOAP. Pat dry. Wait 24 hours before reapplication. Wipe dispensing tip clean after each use and securely replace cap.
