My take on ‘Philips Satinelle Advanced Wet And Dry Epilator’

When it comes to removing bodily hair I prefer waxing over any other hair removal method. But during pregnancy, I could not wax my legs and upper thighs or I would have to ask someone to do it for me. As I moved to the third trimester I completely skipped of waxing my legs and that resulted in long (read looooooong) hair. So after birth, I really wanted to get rid of that hair and but was very scared of the pain I had to bear. If I had to remove that hair via waxing I could have gone into a coma but fortunately, I had the Philips epilator with me. After a long of pondering, I decided to give it a shot. This was the first time I used epilator or say any other hair removal method. And, I am happy that I chose that option. Now, let me start with the packaging of Philips Satinelle Advanced Wet And Dry Epilator.

It comes in a cardboard box that contains the epilator, 8 different accessories for different body & face areas, a pouch to carry the epilator & its accessories, an electric charger, a small brush to clean the heads and a descriptive user manual. Since the 8 accessories are enough to confuse anybody, I first decided to go through the user manual in order to know what to use and when. If you decide to go buy this epilator I would highly recommend reading the user manual before actually starting to use this product. You would get a lot of information that would amaze you about the functions of this epilator. In brief, let me first let you the salient features and the tips to get best results from Philips Advanced Epilator.

1) The basic one is, of course, pulling off the hair from the roots. And, to get the best results you need to keep it at a 90-degree angle and move it in the opposite direction of hair growth. If the hair is long and hard, try putting pressure while you move the epilator. In my case, it reduced the pain to an extent.

2) If you are not used to waxing or epilator, target small areas as it will give you more control and lessen the pain.

3) This epilator can also be used for shaving and trimming. It includes a trimming head and bikini comb to trim and shape delicate areas for more convenience. If you like to shave the V-area or bikini line you just need to change the head and it will provide a close shave with more gentleness.

4) For more gentleness in all different body areas, it includes a facial area cap which removes unwanted facial hairs and a delicate area cap for hair from underarm and bikini.

5) On areas where you have loose skin like inner thighs, calves, etc stretch the skin with one hand and use the epilator with the other. Though one of the 8 accessories is to stretch the skin but I prefer using the massaging accessory over the epilator as I can stretch the skin on my own.

6) It has an inbuilt light that ensures that not even single hair missed from uprooting.

7) It has 2-speed setting levels so depending upon the time you have for hair-removing and on your tolerance power you can choose the setting. By default when you turn on the epilator it will be set on setting 2. If you have to choose setting one press the on-off button again.

8) The other amazing feature is that it works equally well on wet hair. I do not need to take out special time to remove the hair as I can do the same while taking a shower.

9) Unlike waxing it does not break the hair. Even if it does I move the epilator again on the broken hair and it uproots them. It gives smooth hair-free skin without any bumps or redness.

10) The epilator once charged easily can be easily used to remove the full legs and arms hair twice. Plus, as it charges really quickly so I do not need to wait for long for it be charged up and ready.
