[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After using my Gillette Venus Silk-expert for several weeks, I'm seeing some great results! I'm definitely noticing less hair where I'm using it, and the hair that is there seems lighter and finer. My skin is really fair but I have dark hair, so having what little hair remains be lighter and finer is a huge help! I'm excited to try this out in other areas as well!

Hair be GONE!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the Venus Silk Expert from Braun in exchange for an honest review. I was so excited when I was chosen to receive this product and was so anxious to use it. After reading the instructions, I was upset to learn that you couldn't use this product on your face.... I was very pleased with the results on my underarms and legs so far. I've been using this product for a week now. I truly hope the truly hope the results will be as stated and will be so glad to be done with shaving!

Started over with a new area

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I first started using the Gillette Venus Silk-expert on my legs, but after a bit I knew I couldn't continue. I decided to use the Gillette Venus Silk-expert on my arms. For some reason God gave me hairy arms so I shave them. I thought this product could help me with that so I gave it a whirl. Well, some parts of my arm must be more sensitive than other parts because when I got to those sensitive spots, I felt uncomfortableness. It was like a sting or a rubber band snapping you. I tried a few times and honestly, it just wasn't worth it to me. I'd rather shave my arms every day.

I love it!!

I gave 4 stars based off this being my first time using the Gillette Venus Silk. I will upgrade to 5 stars once I can see the results. The Venus Silk was very easy to use. Just plug it and start using it (of course I needed to shave the area first). I was a little nervous about the pain, because I had laser hair removal at a professional in the past and it can be a little painful. Surprisingly, little to zero pain! There was a slight zap in sensitive areas, may a total of 5 times while doing my entire legs. The gliding mode is a great feature. I was able to do both full legs in under an half an hour. The tip on the Venus Silk is also larger than others, so it takes much less time to cover large areas. I am planning to use weekly on my legs. I am excited to see the results!

First Time was Easy

I just tried my Venus Silk Expert for the first time and it was super easy to use. I had had professional hair removal done on one area a few years back and it was painful so I was a little worried about being able to do this myself but it went super smooth (no pun intended!). The extra long cord allowed me to reach all areas (I did my arms, underarms and legs), and the actual device was so easy. Unless the head was in full contact with the skin, it didn't go off. Once I got the hang of it, as far as placing the head in the right spot with the right amount of pressure, it went quick. I used the "sensitive" switch this time around and you could feel the laser but it wasn't painful.

So far so Good

I finally gave it a try. I was very intimidated by the package and the whole setting up, scared to death about the whole "don't do this and don't do that"... I finally gave it a go on my leg, again I didn't knew what to expect and I have to say wasn't that bad! I will update in a couple weeks about results

It's that Easy? No way!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Rip open box, (read directions since I'm a school teacher and it's what we do) plug in, and press button. IT'S THAT EASY!!!!
I have done, plunking and waxing (ouch), laser hair removal ($$$), and electrolysis (time and $).
Gillette- Venus Silk-expert was quick and pain-free.

So far, so good

At first, I was skeptical about using this product. When you plug it in, a fan starts immediately. Then when I used it on my legs, going slowly and steady, it has lights on the side to indicate how well you have the product against your skin. It uses heat tp zap the hair follicle, but doesn't hurt or burn. I like the fact that after a few uses, my hair is becoming less noticeable.
