How to use The Pearl on each area
Before your first use: patch test
Please do a patch test before using The Pearl for the first time.
- Wash the inside of your forearm with soap and pat dry.
- Apply a thin layer of oil-free gel, toner, or cream, about the size of the electrode.
- Switch on EMS at Level 1 in Body mode, with Heat on, and hold the electrode against the area for about 10 seconds.
- Let the area dry naturally. If there is no redness or itching after 24 hours, you are ready to use The Pearl.
Preparing your skin
- Remove all make-up.
- Apply a water-based, oil-free gel, toner, or cream. EMS needs moisture to work, and oils do not conduct electricity. We recommend the Perfect Essence Massage Gel, which is water-soluble and gives a smooth glide.
- Remove any jewellery or accessories.
Please avoid: oils, scrubs, body soap, warming gels, and fat-burning or slimming gels. Apply your gel to the skin, not directly onto the electrodes.
How to use it
- Hold The Pearl in your hand, with the electrodes and Hot/Cool head resting flat on the skin.
- Keep gentle, steady contact so that both electrodes touch the skin. You do not need to press hard.
- Glide slowly in the direction shown for each area below.
- Switch the device on or off only while it is away from your skin.
Face mode (EMS lights steady)
Jawline and face line: Glide slowly upward along the jawline in a lifting motion.
Body mode (EMS lights flashing)
| Area | Direction |
|---|---|
| Shoulders | Glide slowly from top to bottom |
| Upper arms (back of the arm) | Glide slowly from the elbow toward the armpit |
| Calves | Glide slowly from the ankle up toward the back of the knee |
| Décolletage, waist, thighs | Glide slowly and steadily over the area |
Neck: use Heat or Cool only. Never use EMS on or near the neck or throat.
Point care
The raised point on the back of The Pearl can be used for gentle point care. For example, on the shoulders, rest the point on the skin and apply light pressure.
How long and how often
| Time per area | Up to 2 minutes |
| Time per session | Up to 4 minutes in total |
| How often | Daily |
The Pearl switches off automatically after about 4 minutes, so a session typically covers one or two areas. Choose the areas you want to focus on that day.
Areas not to treat
Do not use The Pearl on the fingers, nose, ears, lips, eyes, eyelids, the area around the eyes, inside the mouth, the scalp, mucous membranes, or intimate areas.
Also avoid any area with a skin condition, cut, rash, swelling, sunburn, a tattoo, metal or silicone implants, or recent cosmetic treatment. If you have dental work such as crowns or fillings, avoid using EMS near the jaw or mouth, or move to a different area if you feel discomfort in your teeth.
After your session
- Your skin may look a little pink for a short time. This usually settles on its own. If it does not, please consult a specialist.
- The Pearl may feel slightly warm after use as it releases heat. This is normal.
- Wipe it clean before storing. See The Pearl: what's in the box, parts, and care.
If you feel pain, feel unwell, or notice any skin change, stop using The Pearl straight away.
