Philips BRE200/00 Satinelle Corded Essential Epilator (Pink)

Great product

Just received it yesterday and tried immediately. The product is superb! It is important to follow guidelines and use it properly otherwise it may hurt. I got patchy redness after first-time use, but that vanished in about 2 hours. Pros: Sleek, Easy to use, No battery hassles just plug in, the sensitive area cap is actually good, quick fix when traveling or when there is no time to go to the parlor as it removes smallest of hairs from the root. Cons: Hurts like threading, Gave temporary redness so can't be used right before going out, doesn't work on ingrown hair. Overall: I have sensitive skin with coarse hard hair. For me the results are as good as waxing. If I compare the pain between wax & epilator, then the epilator hurts a bit more because it was my first time. I am hoping the pain will reduce with regular use. Also, because have been waxing for so many years that practically used to the pain of wax! But, only time will tell how long does it take for the hair to grow back (they claim 4 weeks)...so comparing that with waxing will also be essential.

I have used many epilators and have faced several issues with them. I also own an IPL epilator but this is the best in dry category. The epilator is very powerful and for good doesn't have a speed button because obviously there's no need to have low speed. Lower speed hurts more. This epilator is small in body but the powerful motor does the job and I got clean arms in just 5 minutes straight. For new users it certainly will hurt but most hair removal methods hurt. This is just more effective in every way. The small brush is good though I wish these brushes had a longer handle to hold. It has a sensitive cap too and for me the epilator has been a good buy. Just go for it. Its perfect.

Saves time and money spent in the beauty parlour. Smooth finish. Handy. Works as it claims. Initially it was great but after a year's use its Negative is that there is some problems with the blades. It doesn't pluck as efficiently as it used to earlier.

So let's start of with the size, it's quiet small but extremely handy. People say epilating hurts, but honestly if you're used or if you're okay with the pain caused by waxing, then this wouldn't be too much. According to me, it doesn't hurt at all, but some people who have used shaving as a method, may find this a little painful. Overall, this is a very good device. Check the floor after you've finished epilating, surprise. You might find hair. Or I don't know if it's just me. The only con to this device is the noise. If you're a beginner, you might find this noise intimidating, but it's not like how it sounds. The noise is just loud. And also the device cannot be used unplugged, but I wouldn't mark that as a disadvantage, because the cord is pretty lengthy. It comes in only one speed, but that doesn't really matter. It still works amazing, and like I said people used to the pain of waxing may find this a better alternative. Overall, it's an excellent product.

It is really good and works amazing. I actually had a leg surgery due to which the nurses shaved my legs before the surgery. I had never shaved or waxed in my lifetime. After I recovered, I had these thick long black dull hair all along my legs which made me feel like gross. I was so embarrassed to wear dresses as my legs looked like black forest. Thus, to escape from it, I wanted to get rid of the dull hair on my legs. I searched up the internet for many things-waxing,shaving,trimming. But was too afraid to go for waxing because everybody said it hurt too much & I can't possibly irritate my surgical scars by waxing my leg hair. Shaving was required to be done frequently like 3 times a week and I don't have that much time to give to shaving. Then, I came across this wonderful epilator. It was really a life saver . I searched up the web for epilation and they also said that it is less painful than waxing. From my experience, it is really very little painful. But if you want to reduce the pain to a lilttle then you would have to use it with certain specifications- 1. Exfoliate before use 2. After the bath, dry yourself up in the opposite direction of the hair growth 3. Shave or trim your hair 2-3 days before epilating. 4. Hold the epilator at 90" to your body and move it in the opposite direction of hair growth. 5. You may see some red bumps or spots so either ice the area or apply some aloevera gel after use. It is so easy and simple and lasts for 3 weeks( In my case, but depends upon the skin type and hair growth ). Never used a shaver before or waxed.I am only 16 and if I can handle a little pain with a surgery then why can't you? Just go for it ! Worth buying...

Just received the package in a good condition.. This is my first trial for an epilator...couldn't stop myself from using it as soon as it came. At first you ll be like... "Ouchhh I m gonna throw it"... But you should keep yourself strong😆😆 bcz after epilating you ll feel much better. #it didn't make my skin red.. May be I have hard skin #most important tip - keep the epilator at 90° or else the hair will not come out from the root and look like it's shaved #tip no 2- don't move the epilator fast on skin.. Move it slowly(moving fast reduces pain but then hair will not come out of roots) Tip no 3- epilate once in two weeks for lesser pain. As long hair causes pain. #it does make a lot of sound #its very painful for beginners like me..specially the underarms (also I have thick hair bcz of using razors) n the pain stays just for few seconds(but it can be unbearable for sensitive people.) U need to be quite relaxed and have patience. What I liked - quick and good delivery..quick work... No hassle... Budget friendly...freed from waxing😃 What I didn't like - product is although good good but people who have used others better epilators might be disappointed by the sound and number of tweezers #couldnt say when the hair will grow back again coz it's just the first day. Overall one must go for it or any other epilator rather than waxing.

Amazing!! Using this for more than 9 years and still working very well. Never needed any repair till now. Extremely satisfied with this brand.
