My Experience

I really like the purple and white color of the epilator. It looks classy and feels sturdy.

Braun Silk-épil 7 SkinSpa is my first epilator. I have used it both in and out of shower and experience has been good both ways. I use the  Exfoliating brush attachment first to get rid of any dry/flaky skin first and then move on to epilation. I don’t use the shaver head since shaving gives me ingrown hair and bumps. If in case you have longer hair on legs, you can always trim them to save time.

I have used the epilator on my face, around my jawline to get rid of facial hair, using the facial cap. Since I don’t have much facial hair , entire process took less than 5-7 minutes including upper lip area. I tried to keep the skin stretched as much as possible for smoother and quicker hair removal. The light that is fixed on the most appropriate part of the epilator helps in spotting even the tiniest bit of hair left anywhere. Also I didn’t have to go over the same spot twice because epilator uproots even tiniest of hair.

I have used Braun Silk-épil 7 SkinSpa in shower, after exfoliating my skin using the exfoliator brush. It works pretty well once you charge it completely. Battery stays on for good 40-50 minutes, that’s enough to get rid of body hair. I have used Braun Silk-épil 7 SkinSpa twice so far without charging it yet.

I tried to use the exfoliating brush on my face but its a bit stiff and would be little harsh on facial skin. However on body it works perfectly fine and skin feels softer and smoother after using it. I use it once a week only.

Overall Thoughts

I really like this multi purpose all rounder system. You can use it as a trimmer, shaver & exfoliator using different attachments it comes with. Battery backup is good and the fact that it can be used wet & dry makes life more easier. Epilator safe to use on face & body and removes even tiniest if hair. Exfoliator head helps in getting rid of dead skin in no time. Its travel friendly and sturdy. I will recommend it to all who are looking for an Epilator that can do much more than a regular epilator.

Ratings : 4.5/5
