GREAT FOR BUSY MUMS

Being able to use the product for shaving,epilating and exfoliating is a game changer for me. No itchiness after and legs stayed smooth for 2 weeks. Love it can be used wet or dry so you dont even need to be in the shower. LOVE IT

Great epilator

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great product that comes with lots of attachments. I found the epilator a little painful at first but you soon get use to it. I had to go over my legs a couple of times to achieve a completely smooth finish. The pro guide is a handy tool, so to is the light to help capture any stray hairs. The exfoliating brush is a welcome addition, I use whilst in the shower to prepare my legs for the epilator. I like the razor head, I use it underarm, it's quick and easy and leaves me feeling smooth. The battery life is very good, better than expected, I use the product approx 5 times before it requires recharging. The device is light and easy to handle. It is very easy to change the shaving heads, just click the button and release. It is easy to clean using the brush included. The epilator comes with a convenient bag for storing the device and all it's attachments. I highly recommend.

The best epilator I have ever tried.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The epilator looks beautiful. Once you unbox, you get that “wow factor”. The blue colour suits the epilator well. It is very lightweight and compact - super comfortable to hold in a hand. The instructions are a bit confusing, as I have tried for a while to have a good proper read about the extra attachment and the speed varieties, but had to figure it out myself at the end, as all the leaflets included were not very clear on the basics I needed to know. At first, I tried the dry epilating version, and it was so much less painful than using all my previous epilators. Even the shortest hairs were being pulled out, without the strong pain I was used to and was kind of waiting for out of habit. The light feature was brilliant to guide me and speed up the process. The extra attachment is also great for that extra bit of guidance, but not really necessary. The charge is very long-lasting, which I really appreciate, as every time I picked my epilators in the past, I was not able to use them, because the charge was always gone. The wet epilating version was also amazing. I believe, it provided even less pain, as the pores were already open from the bath/shower steam. I do not have much time to spend in the bathroom though, as I have a busy toddler, so I prefer to use the dry epilation while looking after him. Another thing which surprised me was how my legs did not have red spots and irritation all over, immediately after epilation. And I hardly had any ingrown hairs a few days after! Just wish it had a lovely case to store the epilator in. I am still super happy with this new epilator, so I will be throwing out my old one asap!

Love this

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I remember using and epilator around 20 years ago and remembering it being so painful I never touched it again. This isn’t honestly as bad. It’s definitely pinchy but a lot more deal able than the older ones. Not sure if they’ve changed or I have. This feels really nice to hold and isn’t bulky at all. It charged really quickly and has two speeds. I found that if my skin was really dry, it didn’t seem to grab the hair as easily. Where as if I had been moisturising it made a difference. because it is so light, pressure I felt was needed at times too. However, I really like this and will be using it regularly.

Very versatile

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was given the opportunity to try this and as a regular user of epilators was more than happy to give this a go….the first thing that I really love about this is the fact I can use it in the shower as it makes things a lot easier and smoother to use. It’s not painful ,I mean the thought of it plucking your hairs out multiple at a time sounds it but it really isn’t and it lasts far longer than shaving ,in saying that there are attachments to use as a shaver which I use for my underarms.The battery is long lasting and once fully charged can use it a good few times before recharging.They've definitely improved them over the years and I am more than impressed with its performance.

The best epilator i had so far !!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m really impressed with the Philips Epilator Series 9000 (BRE718/00). It delivers powerful yet gentle hair removal and leaves my skin incredibly smooth for weeks. The device easily removes even very short hairs, which means I don’t have to wait long between treatments. One of my favourite features is the built-in LED light, which helps spot fine hairs so nothing gets missed. The ProGuide technology keeps the device at the optimal angle, making epilation more comfortable and effective.  The epilator is 100% waterproof, so I can use it in the shower or on dry skin depending on what feels best. The cordless design and long battery life (about 60 minutes) make it very convenient and easy to handle.  I also appreciate the extra attachments like the shaving head, trimming comb, and exfoliation brush, which make it a versatile all-in-one body care tool. It feels well built, comfortable to hold, and perfect for maintaining smooth skin at home. Overall, this epilator is a great investment for anyone looking for long-lasting hair removal, convenience, and professional-level results at home. Highly recommended!

Fantastic device for long lasting hair removal

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was lucky enough to be chosen to test this product in exchange for a review and this is my honest review. This device is fantastic! It has made such a big difference and I haven't touched my razor since I got it. I am living a much less hairy life and loving every second! My favourite attachment is the standard epilator head. I used it with the guard for the first use which was helpful while getting used to it but I now prefer to use without it to get over all the lumps and bumps on my legs and over my knobbly knees. The light is brilliant and really does help you to see any stray hairs you may have missed. The first time I used it I found the pain levels initially quite unpleasant. However, it's nothing like that now as I can easily maintain smooth legs and there is never that much hair to remove. My legs are smooth for days compared to when I shaved them I could feel stubble almost immediately. It's been brilliant for under arms too and that was way less painful than anticipated. I haven't had any irritation and just moisturize after I'm finished and apply deodorant straight away. My skin is fairly hardy though so if you're sensitive do be careful. This device can be used in the shower as well as out. My preference is to use it when I'm just out of the shower so I can sit on my bed to use it but it's great that it is waterproof for shower use. The bikini trimmer and shaving head are great and do the job brilliantly. I haven't had any nicks or cuts from any of the attachments. The body brush and pedicure attachments work surprisingly well! My feet were so soft after I used the pedicure attachment so I was super pleased that this set came with it. I use the brush as a dry brush for before I shower and it does a really effective job of preparing my skin for epilating. It is the same attachment for these two parts - just pull off the brush or pedicure attachment and push on the other one. It charges fairly quickly and I'm able to use it about 6 times before the light shows it needs charging again and I am using multiple attachments each time so I am very pleased with battery life. It's easy to clean and comes with a little brush to help keep the heads clean. I like that it comes with a pouch for storing all the parts and they do all fit in the bag easily. Also happy to report that I no longer have shaving rash which I always had before. My legs are infinitely more smooth and that smoothness lasts way longer than when I shaved. I don't think they suggest this epilator is for anywhere other than the body, but I have found it very effective for grabbing those annoying chin hairs that peri-menopause has gifted me with. I am thrilled with this device and would highly recommend. Don't be put off after the first use. That's the worst it'll be!

Good bye razors

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the Philips epilator for a while now, and overall, the product is really good. It removes even short hair efficiently and leaves my skin smooth for weeks. One thing I immediately noticed is that it’s less painful compared to the other epilator I was using before, which made the experience much more comfortable and easier to continue regularly. Another big plus is the battery timing. It lasts quite long on a single charge, which makes it convenient for full-body use without worrying about recharging in between. The cordless feature also makes it easy to handle and use anywhere. Suggestions for Improvement: Since this epilator is definitely an investment for years, I think it should come with a storage bag or purse. A proper bag would help keep it safe, clean, and organized, especially for travel or long-term storage. It would also be great if future versions offer even longer battery timing for added convenience. Overall, I’m very satisfied with this product and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and effective epilator.

Smooth outstanding action

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] From the first impressions of the subtle lilac tones of the packaging to the ergonomically designed epilator itself, this impresses me no end. Open opening you're greeted by a gorgeous lilac insert and then after that the product itself. It's sleek and lightweight, already a good start. The little section next to the epilator contains the extra accessories and heads for the product. All have their own small bags to protect from any damage and all are non bulky. The charging cable is as expected and suitable for USB ports and USB plugs. First use i went for the epilator, with hair growth relatively short just over 0.5mm, the epilator had absolutely no problem at all plucking. It's got great balance in the hand, a handy light to see hairs you may miss and most importantly it's painless. It also features an added extra or a pro guide to stretch and keep skin taught but that wasn't necessary for myself. Having tried other epilators before this is the best I've tried yet. I was very surprised at the ease in which it handled the job. When i decided to try the shaving head for under the arms....wow is all I can say, like butter. Honestly didn't even know it had done it's job as it was ridiculously smooth and no iritation on the skin, no matter the direction of it, I had to look in the mirror to double check. The bikini trimmer is also very smooth and no snagging occurred which is obviously great for the sensitive bikini line. The trimmer also has a guard aswell as the shaving head. The pedicure head is small but powerful, looking at it I doubted it would do much for my heels and soles but it certainly did make a difference that I could feel and see. The price is a little high,however, for all the features and just for being so smooth and painless I would recommend it. It makes me look forward to looking after myself and feels like a little bit of luxury.
