Braun Silk-épil 7 7681 Wet and Dry Cordless Epilator Review

Braun Silk-épil 7 7681 Wet and Dry Cordless Epilator Review

I've never used an epilator before - yes, I'm a cowardy custard - but I've had more and more people singing their praises to me. And with a mounting monthly waxing bill, it's a bit of a no-brainer to give this plucking equivalent a whirl. 
I was SO impressed. This epilator is cordless, works in the shower, has a handy little light and is just about as easy as can be. Lots of tiny little tweezers whip round to remove all those pesky little hairs.

This exfoliator comes with five different attachments. I used the high frequency massage attachment (pictured above) on my legs, and the exfoliation results were fantastic. Seriously smooth, hair-free legs. 

I have sensitive underarms, so much so that if I shave before the hair has regrown enough I end up with sore red patches - ouch! But I swapped the head attachment for one of the narrower ones (less plucking in one go, phew) and braced myself for the underarm terror. Not bad at all. The close-grip technology worked on hairs just a few millimetres long, and the lower grade setting meant the plucking pain was very bearable. No red patches, quick and easy.

The different heads are really easy to swap over

I haven't quite mustered up enough courage for the hair downstairs, but I was so impressed with the leg and underarm results. I've already saved a huge chunk in waxing costs, and it's a lot more convenient. Double win! xx
