Review on Experience Smooth Skin with Philips Beauty Epilator Series 8000 - Includes 3 Accessories, White, BRE700/04 by Ada Rola ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Overall good, but expected more.

I have been using epilators for 15 years. I compare this product with my previous Brown, I don’t remember the model (it crashed when it fell on the tile), there were also a sufficient number of tweezers, but they were metal, but here they are plastic. Compared to the previous epilator, this one is much more comfortable in the hand, the shape of the epilator is much more convenient for epilating arms and legs (the previous one was straight), but it’s completely inconvenient for underarms and bikinis, since there are depressions there, and the epilator is concave. It picks up fine fluff well (the previous device left). On the first use, I admired how painlessly and quickly the procedure went, but over time I noticed that the hair grows faster, and with the knees, in general, it’s a complete disaster: I can directly see the broken hairs on them, and there’s a lot of them, they grow back quickly (and grow a lot) , the knees became prickly (which you don’t expect at all as an effect from epilation) - I would suggest that plastic tweezers can’t cope where the hairs sit most tightly. Now I periodically sit and, like a fool, remove the hair on my knees with tweezers - it takes a lot of time and the process is unpleasant - in general, it turned out that the epilator, with other advantages, does not cope with its main function. I think later I will come to buy a new device. Sorry for the wasted money.

Pros
  • Ergonomic handle compared to classic models. Convenient shape of the epilating element for legs and arms. Takes fluff well. Fast, not painful (for those who are familiar with epilation).
Cons
  • Not suitable for bikini and underarm epilation. Breaks hair!
