When I received the product I was over the moon excited about using it decided to use it the next evening, so opened the box and was disappointed to find no normal plug, spent £2 the next day buying the adapter plug at tesco, when I used it i can only compare the pain to when you have your eyebrows threaded but instead of brows it's your body, my skin went red afterwards but by next morning was silky smooth I experienced this everyday it didn't change but I do feel like I have got used to it now, I do feel after 2 weeks of using it my hair growth is less overall pleased and happy with the product.

Now this was my first ever experience with an epilator and to be honest i was very apprehensive, i made sure my gel pack for my cooling glove was nice and cold, applied it to my leg and i was ready to go. I was quite taken aback by the sensation and kept up a running commentary of ouch ouch ouch. I experimented with the two settings and preferred the extra efficient to extra gentle it seemed less painful don't know why that was,i also found if i went really slowly that also helped with the discomfort,i got really brave then and decided to try the efficiency cap, i couldn't tell any difference in sensation but it seemed to do a better job at removing the hair. I loved the light made it so easy to see where i had missed and the cooling glove was a godsend My legs were a bit blotchy and stung slightly which abated after applying some aloe so i would recommend doing this in the evening,but otherwise the epilator has done a great job and i am really pleased with the results, it was worth the discomfort. I haven't tried this on other areas yet but fully intend to. so to summarize yes i will be using this again, the only cons in my opinion are the fact it has to be plugged in and i wasn't aware it needed a plug adapter until opening the box the discomfort wasn't a con as i was expecting it.Would definitely recommend as wasn't as bad as i thought it would be (you do get used to the sensation)and the results speak for themselves.

When using it for the first time I found it rather painfull but got used to it after a while and it's worth the discomfort as the results are fantastic my legs stay smoother for longer I also lent it to a friend who was impressed with the results and is going to purchase her own. A down side to receiving the product is that it only comes with a shaver plug so an adapter is required x

A simple, easy to use epilator with a cool gel for aftercare, would definitely recommend to others! The different settings allow you to choose between efficiency and easy on the pain, rather than having no option - great for first time users. I also like the cooling pack that comes with it, especially as my skin was quite red after using for the first time.

Today I popped my epilator cherry I have been wanting to try one for a while. Well today I did. The product has a great and easy instruction manual which helped me understand all the accessories and uses.. I plugged in ( which I think should be batteries instead by hey ho) and went for it... The closeness of the eplilator is amazing and people had told me it hurt, that is so not true there is strange feeling but nothing like waxing or shaving cuts.. I am so pleased with the finish and am going to try other areas soon, I did have a little go on my armpit but was very warm so gave in as it did hurt a bit.. However, I will not give up as no pain no gain and I am assured you get used to it. All in all I would absolutely recommend this epilator to anyone who hasn't used one before as it has given me a great look.. And for cost I have worked out this will be a great saving for me :) Thanks Braun Regards Emma #bzzagent#

This is my first epilator hence i have been waiting to see how long it will take for the hair to grow back to give you a useful feedback. I was genuinely kicking myself for buying one and lucky me #gotitforfree from bzzAgent. to start off with; The light is really useful as it shows you the finest hair, along with the 2 speed settings,a slower gentler one and a quicker one, it is nice to hold and easy to clean.Pulls hair right from the root and I find that the hairs grow back so much finer with continued use. I personally think it is enough to use once a week. it gets so much easier once you get use it. I have not used the accessories (cooling glove with gel pack, massaging attachment etc) as they didn't seem necessary . The only downside for me is that it is a 2 pin plug and can be only be used from mains if it was cordless could have been much easier and as ]I don't have a shaver point, I have had to invest in a travel adapter. The noise may put you off but i personally don't mind. I would recommend the Braun SE5780 Silk-Epil 5 Epilator. it it definitely worth a try especially for first time users as it is really easy to use.
