Awesome epilator

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thank you bzzagentvfor selecting me on this campaign. to say simply..it's just an awesome product from Braun. It comes with 6different attachments for epilating and trimming. One product has everything. No need to buy an epilator for legs, body and face. I have used various epilators, but this is theeeee best. It's not painful and it's great product to use for the ones who are new to epilation. The high frequency massage roller attachment and the in built led light are definitely the best features. The cap attachment for face epilation is good. The end results are smooth and silky skin. I have asked my friend also to try this and I have received a great positive feedback. Nothing less in this product, but the carry pouch quality could have been little better.

Easy and Convient - But Not Perfect

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried the Braun Silk epil 7 for the first time a few days ago and I was pleasantly surprised at the outcome. I have always wanted to try an epilator, for my legs especially, because I lack the want to shave my legs EVERY DAY. It's downright annoying, and honestly - who has time for that anyway. The first time I put it to my leg and turned it on I turned it back off within seconds. IT HURT. No denying that. I guess I had no real idea what I was getting myself into. Reluctantly, I tried it again and told myself that the pain would be worth not having to shave my legs in my tiny shower pressed up against the wall. I was right! Once I got over the initial pain and told myself to suck it up, I pushed on an the result was awesome! I had very smooth legs the next day. There was an area on my legs that had shorter hair, which it didn't do great on - but I can't expect miracles. It would have been nice had they been gone too but it is what it is. Great product but not perfect yet!

Braun silk epil 7

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I own the epilady 4th generation. The battery was dying out and it was causing me more pain because it would snatch the hair but not remove it so I had Toledo going over the same spot. I started researching the newer versions and came across this awesome device. I couldnt wait to receive it! I set it up, charged it till the light wasn't blinking anymore. One swipe across my arm and all the hair was gone. I couldn't believe the difference. The massager beads on the top helped a little with the pain. It's still painful but not as painful as my previous epilady. I do my arms and legs with it. The extra attachments are great for smaller areas. I have not tried it in the shower because I like to see the hair better when it's dry for a better outcome. The light is an extra great feature. Allows me to see the smaller fine hairs better. I love it so much!!

Better than others

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've used epilators in the past and this one is less painful. I wouldn't say pain free, but better than others that I've tried. I ised it to remove peach fuzz on my face. I didn't use it on eyebrows, but did use it everywhere else on my face. My skin was smooth afterwards. It didn't cause any numbs or pimples. love that it has a shaving option and different size attachments. I used the shaver on my arms and it worked really well.

I am impressed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was a bit skeptical when I got this offer. 15 years ago I tried an epilator, that thing hurt so bad, I was shaking by the time I was done. The hair came back 3 days later, I never got a smooth feel. This product is different, I used it 3 days in a row, because hair grows at different rates, I was able to use it the day after I had shaved, it pulls stubble, and a huge bonus..it hurts way less than they used to. I really like it a lot

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the second epilator I've ever used... I bought my first one approximately 2 years ago (Phillips brand) and I use it maybe 1-2 times a month. I like the style, function, and quality of this one much better! I'm going to get rid of my old one. I was very satisfied with the attractive style of this epilator and I absolutely love that it can be used wet or dry. I think using an epilator REALLY hurts (but is worth it) and it actually hurts less to do it in the shower because the warm water/steam makes the hair come out easier. I have really thick/coarse hair on my legs so this is a big bonus. It is also absolutely amazing that this machine pulls out every tiny hair by its root, and the hair doesn't even need to be that long. After you use the epilator and before you clean it, you can see a lot of the hairs which were pulled out and they all contain the root! This is great because it means the hair will take longer to grow back and eventually might even stop growing if pulled out by the root. The shaver attachment also works really well and leaves your legs silky smooth. It also comes with a few other attachments incase you're wanting to do just a small area, and it comes with a charger and a carrying bag. I would definitely recommend this epilator and I'm going to continue to use it!

Love and hate

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was so excited to try this product.
I followed the directions carefully. I love the idea of removing hair not just shaving.
It was a bit painful on my arms than legs but it was bareable.
However it was a big mistake when I used on my facial hair removal. It gave me a rash and bums on my upper lip after I remove the hair.
I wouldn't recommend using this on your face if you have a sensitive skin like me even if the direction says it's ok to use. The rash went away over a night after I put the aloe lotion to clam it down.
I will definitely use it again on my legs again since it's plucking hair I don't need to use this machine as often as when I was shaving.

One of the best!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I first received th the Braun silk-epil 7 in the mail, I was super excited! When I opened it and first used it, I was nervous to use a product like this on my legs, or anywhere on my body, because I have mega sensitive skin. So I used the shaver head first, and then the epilation head with the massage cap. Definitely helped get all the smaller hairs!
I will say to anyone looking to get this product that the epilation head is not like a razor! It's made up of 40 tiny little tweezers to pull the hair out from the root, to help keep your legs smoother for longer, feels a lot like waxing! I know a lot of people who aren't down with that kind of pain. Although with waxing, the hairs can break, and not be completely pulled out. In my opinion, this product did tons better, and you can do it in the privacy of your own home. All in all, sleek looking, great working product!
