| I bought this model because it was reduced and because I had never used an epilator before, so didn't want to spend a lot of money on one in case I didn't like it. This one comes with an icepack and shaver head.
I have used it on my legs and underarms , but not yet on my bikini line! I found that it doesn't really hurt on my legs and that's without using the icepack. Some areas, like the backs of my legs, sting more that others, but if you pull the skin tight, it hurts a lot less. If you use the icepack it helps you keep the epilator at the right angle and it removes more hairs. I've been using it for a few days and it does take practise and it can miss a lot of hairs so you have to keep going back over the same area. But the more you use it, the less it hurts. It took two days to do my underarms! I had to keep stopping because it really stung. But the last time I used it, the pain had reduced and I was able to finish the job! You use a 'cap' that reduces the area of the epilator head, so removes fewer hairs at a time. I now have really smooth under arms and I know that the next time I do it it won't hurt a much. I think the key to epilating is to just grin and bear it and the results are worth it. I only gave 4 stars because it's a bit noisy and it didn't remove as many hairs as I had hoped in one go. But I expect that is down to user error rather than a duff machine. Enjoy! |

| This is the first Epilator I have bought as I was recommended to buy one by a friend. A lot better than shaving and being left with ingrown hairs and itchy hair regrowth and a lot easier and less messy than waxing. Don't get me wrong it still hurts but the results are worth it. I would say that the first couple of times you just have to grin and bear it. Hope this helps someone thinking about buying one as I was very undecided with the reviews I read but would definitely recommend it. |
