Braun Silk-epil 5 5-230 Wet & Dry Cordless Epilator

Great Shaver

I wanted an epilator I could use in the shower and this was recommended to me. Its very easy to use and charges quickly. It also comes with a shaving head as well and the shave with the epilator was simple and smooth. My legs feel lovely. The blades are enclosed so no cuts unlike when using a manual razor. It's also easy to clean as the head comes off so you can wash away any hidden hairs

Converted

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After being nervous to try this I’m a fully signed up epilator convert. Yes, the first time is painful - although if you like plucking your eyebrows then it’s a funny, addictive sort of satisfying pain. After that, the process is a breeze and the regrowth time and thickness is significantly reduced. The noise isn’t too bad, just turn up the TV and watch something while you do it. Cost is good value when you weigh up the cost of waxing / buying razors and shaving foam. This is me for life now!

Braun

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been trying Braun for many years & this version is the best so far, I love the effectiveness, not very loud, the accessories & the lovely bag for the accessories, looks very luxurious, the bonus is the head for the bikini & the face I absolutely love it, my skin is sensitive & I loved Braun as it is not harsh on my skin & it doesn’t shave the hair so the skin will feel softer & the results will be longer as the hair grows slowly, the battery is good , I’ve had full body hair removal & the charge was ok, very easy to use as well, I love it .

The hair removal tool you need

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you invest in this Braun epilator you will likely never need to invest in expensive hair removals ever again. I've used multiple hair removal methods throughout my life, including waxing and laser, as well as epilators in the past and didn't have the best experience so I was hesitant trying a new epilator. They were loud and they HURT SO MUCH. However, after trying this epilator i couldn't believe how quiet and pain-free it is! It epilates, shaves, trims and removes even the shortest hair straight from the root. I absolutely love that it can be used wet and in water too and can be wireless!

Great to remain hair free for longer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was my first time using an epilator and found the instructions to be very useful especially as they give instructions for beginners. I was happy to see that the product also came with a mini tool for smaller areas such as bikini lines and eyebrows. This was very easy to use to shape and tidy up my eyebrows. The epilator was slightly sharp on skin on first use but I felt I got used to this the more I used it. As someone who has to shave often due to re growth this was really great that once used I could go longer period of time hair free. The product can look scary with all of the different attachments and heads but the instructions were clear and helpful. It charged up within an hour and had a handy light on it. It also came with a brush to get rid of hair on the product.

A little discomfort for a lot of convenience!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'd always wanted to try an epilator but was always a bit wary of spending the money without knowing how well they work...and my comfort level tbh 🫢 I was so happy to get the opportunity to review one for influenster, so I hope my review can be of use. I am especially interested in the whole not having to shave for several weeks as I'm so extremely lazy (as you can tell!) 😅 and feel this could be great to use prior to going in to hospital (which I will be in the next few weeks!) or holidays etc. I used it only on dry skin, apparently using it on damp - e.g in the shower is supposed to help with any discomfort - however I am yet to try this method out. I found the discomfort comparable to either laser hair removal or tattooing, however as you can tell from my photos I am very used to the latter 😂. I found it certainly tolerable but I'd still recommend doing it in sections to save over irritating the skin in one session...just from my experience anyway. I definitely recommend if you do have a reasonable pain tolerance and are a bit ADHD regarding actual repeated shaving, I'd much rather use this device as opposed to shaving several times in the same time span. Also the little light is immensely useful! Thank you!

Works

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] About seven years ago, I lasered all of my hair , but as you know with laser there are still some hair remaining even after 10 or 12 sessions. Getting a wax every month seems too much, so I tend to resort to epilators. I can do it at home, whenever I want, it’s cheaper and lasts long enough. This little guys is nice. It has loads of attachments, but I think this smooth one works best, on all body parts from underarms to legs. It also has 2 speed/power setting. I think the first one is better, as the second one a bit too fast, and might break the hair instead of pulling it out. Pain-wise, regular exfoliation and using it at the end of a shower routine works best for me and makes almost painless (but this also depends on where you are in your cycle) A really annoying thing though, is the charger. It’s European, so you need to have an adapter if you are in the UK.
