Braun FaceSpa Face Epilator, Hair Removal with Facial Cleansing Brush Head, Toning Head & Charger Stand, Wet & Dry, SE912, White/Bronze

I love this! I bought this after buying the Braun Silk-Epil 9 as I wanted something that could epilate my face more easily. The brush and toning attachments were an added bonus but they are worth it!EFFECTIVENESS - It is very effective! My face is super smooth! I use this once per month and my routine is cleanse as normal, epilate, re-cleanse using the brush (to prevent folliculitus from epilation), apply serum and moisturiser, use toning attachment. I find that it's best to use when I'm not going out anywhere as the redness can last a while (a few hours) and it's best to avoid applying makeup the day you do it as this can lead to breakouts. The design of this makes it so so easy to epilate fiddly areas and really quick too. Be careful around your eyebrows though...I would only use this between my brows but not above or below as you are likely to lose an eyebrow! The brush is great for gently but thoroughly cleansing and the toning attachment is lovely and cooling and helps your moisturiser sink in better.COST - It is pricey but worth it in the long run...it will pay for itself in under a year since I no longer need beauty salon appointments. Also, it's worth paying more for the rechargeable one rather than the cheaper one with disposable batteries. The battery life on this is amazing.SIDE EFFECTS? - It is a little painful (same as threading), especially the top lip area, but the pain is less over time. Redness can be severe initially (use this while your boyfriend is out lol) but does go down fairly fast. I do breakout a little afterwards (I am very breakout prone though), but I have found that cleansing before and after epilating, as well as regular (2-3 times a week) exfoliation with salicylic acid serum helps a lot. Also, avoiding makeup or clogging products the day you do it is a good idea. Try to use gentle products and if your skin can tolerate aloe Vera gel, that is the best thing to use.OVERALL - I highly recommend this face spa, it works very well, is lovely to use and because of the extras it feels like a facial at home.

A bit painful, but it works. It is an epilator, which pulls out hairs in delicate areas. Very effective.

I bought this to deal with a newly acquired "menopause mustache", and I have to say it's very efficient at dealing with those dark hairs that grow on the upper lip. It doesn't hurt as much as using tweezers because you are not trying to grab each hair individually. It's not painless though, and my skin was a bit red after the first time using it, but with practice you can whip out those hairs really quickly with minimal redness and it does seem to hurt less with continued use. I have just used it on dark, noticeable hairs, I did try it on a little peach fuzz which it did remove, but I personally don't feel it necessary to epilate my entire face so can't really comment any further on peach fuzz removal!The cleansing brush feels quite nice on the face but I don't see myself using it as I already have a manual silicone face exfoliator pad that does the job and is a lot cheaper to replace. I also can't really see the point of the vibrating toner attachment. However I would say if you have got a use the attachments they are really easy to remove and swap over.I would have given it five stars - but for a couple of points: It would be nice to be able to buy it without the brush and toner attachment if you don't want them, and I don't think it is justified to charge over twice the price of the battery operated one for the convenience of a rechargeable version.Overall I would recommend this product as it does the job I bought is for.

The media could not be loaded. Update:After 2 wks of using it, needed to return due to battery issue.I mainly bought this to replace multiple devices I use every day (face epi, electric facial cleanser and massager).What I like about this product:- the battery life is decent enough. From a full charge, I used it for approximately at least 2 a day for 10 days before the battery ran off.- the epil works great. It truly pulls out even the shortest hair- the facial massager is really relaxing. I use it with argan oil.- it comes with a nice travel bag.What I do not like about it:- the plug is not for the UK- the facial brush is not for good the skin. It's bristles are tough. It made my skin very dry even if I use it just once a day. Really harsh on the skin. Comparing it from my China brand electric facial cleanser, this one really sucks! The China brand I have is even gentle on the eye area so I really don't understand how Braun can't make it better! It claimed it's for sensitive skin but it's not 😞 needed to use my China brand again after 3 days of using the facial brush.- too expensive- it would have been better if there's an indicator when the battery is low so I don't have to guess if it's damaged or just needs to be charged.I expected more especially from this well-known brand unfortunately, it disappointed me AGAIN.
