Epilator
on May 2, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a review for the Philips Hello Smooth Epilator 9000. This epilator comes in a wonderful lavender/purple color, which I really enjoyed! It also has attachments for the body, bikini line and feet!

Great option if you’re looking for something more
on May 2, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First of all it definitely feels like a premium device- sleek design, cordless, and I love that you can use it wet or dry ( using it in a shower really helps with comfort). It also comes with multiple attachments, so it’s more like full body set, not only epilator.
Performance-wise , it removes even short hairs really well a leaves my skin smooth for a long time. It can catch very short hairs (even shorter than what waxing usually needs), and results can last up to few weeks.
Now real talk- it’s still an epilator, so yes, it can be uncomfortable, especially if you’re new to it. The first use wasn’t the easiest for me, but it gets better over time. Using it in a shower definitely helps reduce that feeling.

Brutally painful and pointless
on May 2, 2026
Posted by: LindseyB
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have you ever wanted to know what it feels like to pull your leg hair out with tweezers, all at the same time? Are you looking for a hair removal method that somehow takes longer than both shaving AND waxing? Look no further- the epilator is for you. Now to provide some context, I KNOW some hair removal methods are going to hurt. I used to get bikini waxes while heavily pregnant. However, I can’t for the life of me understand why anyone would choose this. I even tried it in the shower, under warm water, which is supposed to help with the pain. Shaving is much faster and painless (granted you have to do it more often but it’s so fast). Waxing hurts but is over MUCH faster than epilating. The only plus was skin stayed smoother for a few days longer than shaving, but that could be because I have coarse and dark leg hair. Maybe a good fit for lighter and shorter hair. Regardless, probably a hair removal method that should have stayed in the last century.

Quality product but painful
on May 1, 2026
Posted by: SarahS
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was the most painful beauty tool I've ever used. I could not get past the pain using it as a body epilator, it's main purpose but I absolutely love that it is a multitool! I can use the shaving heads and potentially buy the others (looking at you led red light therapy for my face!). The quality of the tool is great, good size and ergonomics! If you're used to the pain you'll really like this. I love that the epilator heads both have a light. This is a costly tool but it does have so much value due to its multifunctions. Love the cases each head came with and the charging capabilities. Very cool it's easy to carry and can be used in the shower!

Very cute and stylish epilator!!

Posted by: LyudmylaS
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Philips epilator very cute and stylish made of quality materials! The kit includes a material bag for convenient storage. It has two speeds, allowing to choose which one is more comfortable, very easy to switch between, because I have sensitive skin this is very important for me.

Sleek Design
on April 30, 2026
Posted by: AnnaB
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product free in exchange for my honest review. This is such a great epilator! I have had others in the past and I would choose this one over the others because of its design. The sleek handle and shape of the epilating head make it easy to glide along the skin and the light helps to see any hairs that need to be gone over. It is also very lightweight which makes it easy to handle. I love all the attachments it comes with that are easy to change out making it more than just an epilator. The trimmer attachment makes it easy to trim hair to the perfect length before epilating if needed especially before first time use. I do wish you were able to use it while it was charging because it has died on me mid leg so I would recommend charging after each use so that doesn’t happen. Other than that you couldn’t ask for more when it comes to a tiny torture machine designed to rip all your hair out ;)

Way easier than I expected
on April 30, 2026
Posted by: AmandaS
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was so much easier than I thought. I almost chickened out but I’m so happy I decided to go ahead and use it. It got my skin so smooth with zero irritation after. If you’re sensitive to waxing, try this instead.
