Philips Beauty Satinelle Essential Compact Hair Removal Epilator for Women, BRE235/04 (Corded Use Only)

Good quality
I was a little worried about buying this because the price is so much lower than other epilators, and I thought it would be of not such a good quality. However, after I used it, I am more than satisfied. Everything I read about epilators online and in these comments/reviews is true. It does hurt, it is uncomfortable, and you do get red dots on your skin after you use it. However, it is also true that if you read the instructions provided with the epilator carefully before using it, everything will be fine. I used it on my underarms and my legs, and both are smooth. My underarms hurt a little more than my legs, but nothing an average person cannot handle. I had a damp washcloth with me, and I pressed it lightly against my skin after I was done using the epilator to reduce pain and inflammation. It worked like a charm.If you are scared to somehow mess it up and hurt yourself, I would first recommend read the instructions carefully and follow them. Secondly, below I describe exactly what I did, step by step, so that you may know what worked for me. Also, I have attached a picture of my underarm the morning after I had used the epilator.1) Plan to shower at night, as it makes everything easier (You’ll see why later).2) rinse the head of the epilator when you take it out of the package, and let it dry completely before you use it.3) while the head of the epilator dries, read the instructions and safety warnings.4) Shower – clean and exfoliate very carefully the areas you plan on using the epilator on.5) No lotion – I usually put on lotion after I shower, but this time, I limited myself to putting on lotion only in the areas I was not using the epilator on. The areas I was going to epilate, I simply dried.6) When you are ready, placed the dry head on the epilator and plug it in. Turn it on.7) lightly grace the epilator over your skin. It will be uncomfortable as your hairs are being pulled out, but try to go as slowly as possible to avoid accidentally cutting hairs instead of pulling them out.8) Go against the direction in which your hair grows. Some comments here say to go in the direction of hair growth, but the instructions that came with the epilator say otherwise.9) after you are done using the epilator, or whenever you deem it necessary, turn it off and use the provided brush to brush off hair off the epilator’s head. When finished using the epilator, rinse it under cold water again and let it dry completely before storing it.10) Once you are done, if your skin hurts/burns, lightly press a damp washcloth on it (preferably cold).11) apply unscented lotion to the area you just epilated, and massage the area.12) if you do this at night and you epilated your underarms, go to sleep without applying deodorant. Let the skin breathe overnight. You will notice red spots show up after you epilate, but they will go away by morning (see picture attached).13) When morning comes, assess the state of your skin and do whatever you think best for your well-being as long as it doesn’t go against the safety instructions the epilator came with.I know it is scary, but if you take a deep breath and follow the instructions, everything will be fine. I am really excited to have less and less hair as time goes by!

Ouchie but effective
This unit does a great job grabbing hairs on arms, legs and underarms. It is pretty LOUD and it does hurt more than I expected, but it does a great job epilating.

Compact Epilator
I was skeptical about the size, took a chance on the purchase, and am quite pleased. It works perfectly for those who need a quick touch up on the chin/underarms.

Bad to worse; returned, replacement is so/so.
Received the box without any outer packaging and it was completely dented and dirty. I was certain something had fallen out of the box, too, so I just returned it. I bought the product instead from the actual company for the same price even w/ shipping.However; the product turned out to be subpar.I had a remington for over a decade and the spinny wheel finally broke so I got this one. This new one is twice the price of what I paid for it; and I bought the remington at a pharmacy, and you KNOW nothing at pharmacies is cheap!! The pluckers are kinda powerful I guess; on my first use, it got most underarm hair efficiently. Not painful at all, but I’m an old pro, so ymmv.The little cover you put on for ‘accuracy’ falls off a lot when in use, but works well when it DOES stay on, but the accuracy cover seems to rub into the pluckers a lot so that can’t be good.The tweezer head comes off a little too easily and is loose/has too much give in general, so I feel that’s gonna break, and soon. It also doesn’t POP off, it SLIDES, so I feel it’s a design flaw and is just asking to be damaged.Not wireless, which I like because it has more power, but the cord is cheap and bends/kinks a lot. Kind of like the new Apple changers; has a rough feel to it, not sturdy. I have to hang it because wrapping and folding the cord will damage it. Not very convenient.One of these days maybe a better epilator will be out there for me. Will need to make do with this as long as I possibly can.

J’ai toujours été chez l’ésthéticienne mais avec le cout de la vie et le faire sois même 😅 il a des endroits pas évident seul.Je n’ai jamais toujours à aucun rasoir alors j’ai opté pour cette appareil. Ma mère l’utilise depuis des années alors pourquoi pas.Sa ma prit de temps a m’habituer à la sensation/douleur 🤭 Mais maintenant aucun problème et beaucoup moin de poil. Sa prend 3 mois avant de refaire mes jambes. 2 semaine avant mes aisselles. Le poil doux et moin fort qu’une personne au rasoir.

جودة جيدة
