Braun Silk-épil 3-031 Epilator for Women, Long-Lasting Hair Removal, 20 Tweezer System, Smartlight Technology, Gentle on Skin, Shaver & Trimmer Included, White & Pink

Edit dated 25.10.2020:Good product from Braun. 9.5/10. Have been using it for 2 years now. I use it once a month or so. Still working well.You need a bit of patience with this as it takes more time compared to waxing or the cream method. Otherwise it's all good I'll say.Original review:It is my first time using an epilator, and I must say it's waaay better than waxing. I'm sensitive to hair removal creams so this is a great product for me.- Wire is long enough so no worries.- It comes with a shaver head, which helps trim hair length. Kinda useful but not so efficient in my opinion.- It's great that there are 2 speed modes. It really helps with efficiency or on days when you feel more pain than usual.- The light! It is really helpful. You'll know when you use it.- DO remove the massage head before using, because it reduces the efficiency. In the beginning you can put it to get used to the epilator, but later on you probably won't need it.Pros:- Slightly less pain than waxing. I have used it only for arm and leg hair. Haven't tried yet for armpit/face.- Can do whenever, wherever. Just plug in the cord and you're set. No need to go to the parlor and waste time. Just do it whenever you have free time at home.Cons- it makes some noise, but not too much. Same as blow dryers make.- Ingrown hair. But you have the same problem with waxing too. Can be solved with good skin care.Some tips:Before using:- you have to keep removing the hairs from the epilator head by using the brush provided so that it works more efficiently.- It's better to have trimmed approx 0.4 -0.7 cm hair when you epilate. Any longer and it might hurt more. XD- i have read that it's better to have dried skin and not use moisturizer before epilating. I followed the same advise.After care:- Moisturize the skin after the hair removal.- Keep exfoliating your skin on regular intervals after hair removal. Otherwise there will be ingrown hair just like you have when you wax.- i suggest using this once in 1-2 weeks for the starting few months. After that monthly is enough. It all depends on your hair growth.Will post later how it works after long time use.

Good shave experience. Epilator is somewhat painful and takes more time than shaving. Can be portable to use in no plug point bathrooms.

Very useful...good quality

The media could not be loaded. its my first time buying an epilator and after reviewing alot of sites and youtube videos i decided on to this braun epilator. i received genuine product which was the main concern for me. however coming back onto this product worth 2999inr i guess its quite sturdy and is not made in china its made in germany. the massage rollers are quite wise in this design as they prick the skin earlier than the epilator itself 😂 making the whole experience almost painless . i belong to sensitive skin cadre and couldn't undergo waxing as my skin comes off with the waxing sheet leaving me with a patches of blood clots . its a good option for those with sensitive skin and other issues as unlike waxing it just pulls up the hair. its my first time hence i could see the red bumps on my skin however they're still fine as compared to heamatoma or blood clots . waxing was always a big no no razor wasn't a good choice lets hope this doesnt dissapoint on a long run .pros of this epilator are higher i chose this over phillips because of the led and massaging rollers . the cord is long enough . the led lends great visibility for the working area and rollers make the experience better if not worse . 😀however the shaver head is useless. doesn't workto those who feel its painful one piece of advice: buy a spray anaesthetic like nummit or any other lignocaine spray or gel from dispensary keep ice pack handy . it'll be easy then.edit : shaver head does work however i didn't know earliertrim first and then shave . and with consecutive uses the process becomes painless and now after using it for more than two months or so the hairs come off easily even if i pluck them with my fingers.perfect 🥰

Good to go

For all those who r in dilemma whther to purchase it or not this review is just for those ppl. This product has only pros and therefore just go for it. Worth investing bcoz m sure u wll not visit salon for waxing after using this. 1.Very easy to use( frst time u might be anxious but once u see d result its magic) and same or even better result than waxing.2. Use it anytime and anywhere. Super handy and dosent occupy much space so u can carry it anywhr.3. Most imp doubt is related to.pain. but being frst time user it was painless for me ...just slight tingling which wll get better with massage rollers attached, so no pblm.Slight irritation or blisters u might experience but thats not so bad. Frst timers shld always try it at nght so ur skin gets time to heal.Hope this helps all anxious coustmers.

the only reason i am giving this product a 4 star is that its time consuming , i had never used an epilator before ,i used to have regular waxing session , i used this epilator for the first time and trust me girls my skin is too sensitive still i did not face any severe pain , i would rather say it was negligible pain.. way less than waxing , the only thing is you need to study how to use it..and you will not face any pain also its been two weeks now i did the epilation still my body is hair free and smooth. so do not give it a second thought , just buy it , it saves your money , travelling to the salon and can be done at home easily , try it in the shower when your skin is softer for epilation , take warm water bath and then start the epilation.. my full body needed 2 and half hours to epilate..so do have ample time and patience for this

Have heard so much about Braun and went ahead and bought the epilator after having been using Philips epilator for over 4 years!! I had expected ot to be better that Philips but it's not even at par. It's not pulling out the hair rather trimming it and hence the pain is less !! Such a disappointment. DO NOT BUY
