Procter & GambleBraun FaceSpa Face Epilator for Women, Hair Removal with Facial Cleansing Brush Head, 100% Waterproof, SE810, White

I am generally quite sceptical of grooming devices specifically for the face and have made do with a pair of tweezers for this sensitive area for most of my life, but I decided to buy this product due to it's claims of being speedy, and because I have owned a more conventional epilator by Braun before that has never let me down. So far, I've only used the device once or twice, and will leave another review in a couple of months to provide some more clarity.I am very happy with it at this early stage. I'm by no means unused to epilation on the skin so can't judge how painful it would feel to someone not used to the pulling sensations - only that the tiny epilator head feels gentle enough and is easy to manipulate around really tricky areas above and below the brow - an absolute win for me, as it takes ages to manually groom thick eyebrows with tweezers! It is indeed speedy and effective and I couldn't be more pleased.Though I bought this thing for the epilator alone really, I did try out the cleansing brush attachment and was shocked at how effective that was as well. I tend to wear foundations at least 5 days a week and need to be careful to keep the T-zone of my face clean as this is a problem area for spots and blocked pores. The brush worked beautifully at helping apply my current cleanser and though it sounds rather silly: my face felt really good after my cleansing routine was done, (glowing would be the word). I am seriously impressed here, this is finally a device with an attachment that I won't simply keep in my cupboard and completely forget about: both the epilator and the brush parts have proven to be quick and effective alternatives to manual tweezing, which is glacially slow, and using wash cloths to help with makeup removal, which pull the skin about too much and can actually cause fine lines. The attachments are easy to clean, but I have made a note to be mindful of keeping any moisture out of the main parts as certain reviews I have seen online suggest it isn't as waterproof as intended.Overall, I am hopeful that this device will continue to prove reliable in the coming months and continue to knock time off my cleansing/tweezing routines. If the good results remain (and my face continues to glow like it has been doing!), I'd wager it'll be hard going finding a better facial epilator on the market at this price range.

Everything you'd expect from a Braun product. This was really easy to use on the face.Good results acquired so pleased with the product as my face looks good.

I decided on a whim a couple of weeks ago that I was tired of bleaching my top lip and went at it with my body epilator… It hurt like hell and I couldn’t do the middle part of my lip because it was too painful and the epilator was too cumbersome. After bleaching the middle part and once the irritation had gone down, it didn’t look too ridiculous! But I decided that a face epilator would probably be better.I got this one on sale at £40 and I wouldn’t have wanted to pay more for it. It’s a pretty simple bit of kit - small epilator head on an ergonomic wand, battery operated. I don’t have much use for the cleansing head, but I might give it a go sometime.I’ve just used the epilator for the first time and I’m pretty happy with it! It was a lot gentler than a body epilator and dealt with the hair on my upper lip well. It says to go against the direction of hair, but I found that for the middle of my lip, going with the hair was less painful and still did the job. It struggled a little more on my chin where I have some courser hairs, but I can live with still having to pluck a few.I have sensitive skin, so at the moment it’s red and a bit puffy, but definitely not as bad as when I used my body epilator and it’s going down pretty quickly. I expect I’ll have a few tiny whiteheads tomorrow as that’s what my skin tends to do, but as long as I leave them be they’ll go away. Definitely something to do when you’re not planning to go out immediately!All in all, I’m pretty happy! It was quick, relatively painless (if you’ve never epilated before though, then it will probably be pretty painful!), and easy to use. One minor gripe is that the epilator head got quite hot pretty quickly, so I had to turn it off for a few minutes to let it cool down.

This Braun face spa is dual function, it comes with a brush head for exfoliation and the tweezer head which is designed for removing pesky facial hair. It also has a small cleaning brush tool and a lid to put on top of the tweezer head.Not so good things first -1) Tweezing ability - Given that I bought it for this purpose I have been somewhat disappointed that it does not get all the hairs that I thought it would. It is necessary to experiment with the wand and the direction the tweezers are rotating in order to get the best chance of getting the hairs ( I have also experimented with making my skin more taut to try and improve the tweezing) . I still find some thicker hair and the shorter hairs are not always pulled out. I still do get the hand held tweezers out and pluck out the remaining hairs. There is no way I could wait 4 weeks until doing it again, more like 1-2 times a week and there are a couple of days when I have to tolerate that 'stubbly' feeling where the hair has started to grow. Having said that my chin is definitely smoother feeling after using it and this has to be because of the Braun tweezers.2) Battery power - It is battery operated and takes only 1 battery. As other reviewers have noted the battery power does seem to go down very quickly, literally you can hear it slow down after very little use e.g. 5 minutes or less. It will take re-chargable batteries which is good. Replacing the battery is very easy the little cleaning brush tool doubles as the key to open the battery compartment.Good things1) Exfoliation - the rotating brush head is perfect for putting a liittle facial cleansing soap on and then using on the face and neck. My skin felt really well exfoliated and smoother after using it. So I recommend this definitely.My overall star rating of 3 reflects that whilst using the face spa is better than using the manual tweezers only, the hair removal is not as good as I'd hoped and the battery does not last as long as you might expect.
