- Do not apply to open wounds or severely inflamed or irritated skin.
- Avoid using immediately after shaving, waxing, or hair removal if the skin is red or irritated.

- If signs of dryness, stinging, or persistent redness appear, reduce usage frequency or temporarily stop until the skin calms down.
- The formula contains alcohol and fragrance; therefore, it is best to test the product on a small area if the skin is very sensitive.
