Venus silk expert results after 4 weeks
on March 7, 2017
Posted by: sharktooth
from Munster, IN
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After trying the Venus silk expert for 4 weeks I am impressed with the differance I can see in the hair growth.It has become less dark and much thinner.It does work really well if you have the time to use it as instructed.The cons I have discovered are first a lack of a on/off switch.It would be much easier to use if it was either rechargable cordless or atleast had a on/off switch instead of just plug in to use and be limited to where you can use it.The only other draw back I can say is the burning sensation when you first use it but there is no lasting affect it is just the burn as the laser is working without a lasting affect.All in all very happy with it and I am certain I will be using it for many years to come.

So easy to use!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using the Venus Silk Expert for 4 weeks now. It is extremely quick and easy to use. I noticed a reduction in hair growth after the first treatment and every week it continues to decrease. I can't wait to see the end result after the full 12 weeks of use.

Skeptical but surprised

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think the Gillette® Venus® Silk-expert powered by Braun® is an excellent want to remove unwanted hair. At first I was skeptical and did not think that it was doing anything. My first 2 times using it I will say weren't the most comfortable. There is definitely a sting associated with the light when it zaps your hairs. After the second go with it I knew what to expect and it wasn't so bad. The negative things I have to say about this is that it is a bit time consuming and there is no way to see which areas you have already gone over. But back to the good. Being a busy mom I don't always shave my legs until they are SUPER hairy. Well, this past time I noticed a full strip of my leg that had no hair!!!! I guess I have treated that area a little more than the rest of my leg but it definitely made me realize that the Gillette® Venus® Silk-expert powered by Braun® really does work!! I received this product free from Braun in exchange for my full and honest review.

Good so far ...

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This for starters, I had high hope with using this product, and I've heard so much about it. Unfortunately, it did not work for me when I first used it.
Then after a few times, I realized that after a little bit of hurt, I looked at my legs and underarms and it actually did work.

This is a really interesting product and very unique to be able to do it yourself at home. This can cut down on your visits to the spa or salon for waxing over time.
I would say that it could be better, but for a new intro to this home system, I think it's great! I had to wait and it took a while before I could do a full review, but overall this is a good product. Give it a chance it you don't mind a slight pinch, haha. Definitely worth it.

Very easy to use

It is super easy to use. It also did not hurt as bad as I thought. I get laser treatments on some areas and they are more painful. This was my first treatment so we will see what happens over the course. I would love to not have razor burn on my bikini line as pictured below.

Well worth it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product has a lot to offer. I was very hesitant to use it because of the heat factor to zap at the hair follicles. Surprisingly, it doesn't use as much heat as I thought it would. With in a week after using this product, my hairs became less noticeable and my legs are much smoother. Next, I will try it on my underarms and see if I get the same results

Getting familiar with the Gillette Venus Silk-expert
on August 15, 2016

from Hamilton, NJ
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the Venus Silk Expert from Braun as a free sample to try and review. So I've used my Gillette Venus Silk-expert twice so far. I haven't been able to see any difference yet when it comes to less/slowed hair growth but I'm looking forward to it's results over the upcoming months. After thoroughly reading the instructions I found the unit itself is quite easy to use and clean. It is light and fits comfortably in the hand. Don't forget to shave first. You press it up against your skin and press the button. It has indicators on the side that allows you to know if you'll get a flash of light in your hard to reach areas. The flash of light is what is working on the hair. Move it along after each flash to the next area that needs treatment. Use this once weekly for 12 weeks and then you can adjust your usage after that depending on your own hair growth rate. I'm using this on my underarms. So excited thinking that I wouldn't need to shave my underarms every day! I have not experienced any irritation after using this. Easy to clean also, just wipe with a clean cloth.
