Philips BRE235/00 Corded Compact Epilator (White and Pink) for gentle hair removal at home

Excellent product only probelm is you have to keep going over the areas as the small hairs it doesn’t grab or pluck. And longer hair you have to cut before epilating

Product is good but packaging is too bad

The Philips corded epilator is a great choice if you're looking for a consistent and efficient hair removal tool. It removes even the tiniest hairs from the root, leaving the skin smooth for weeks. Being corded, you don’t have to worry about charging it—just plug and go. It’s easy to use and works well on legs, arms, and underarms. There’s a bit of discomfort (as with all epilators), but it’s manageable and worth the results. Overall, a reliable and budget-friendly device for long-lasting smoothness!

For chin and upper lip hair removal it is useful..Epilator not plucking the thicker hair rather first removing the thin hair which are not required to epilate..and these thin hair next time comes like thick..like wise it shows more thick hair on upper lip or chin. During epilation it produces heat..and the skin getting hurtDO NOT BUY FOR FACIAL HAIR REMOVAL

The philips epilator is a must have in every women’s grooming kit. While I was extremely skeptical before buying it because of the product being completely new and not hearing a lot of women using this. It turns out to be most useful product for getting rid of unwanted hairs from legs and arms. It feels painful in the beginning but so did waxing in the beginning and eventually you get used to it. Infact this is a completely mess free and lesser time consuming. Been using it once in a month just like I used to avail waxing services from a salon

Delivered within few hours. No AMAZON cardboard box, was delivered in damaged product's packing box, fortunately contents were not damaged. The box had telltale signs of being previously opened (no seal sticker).Good product from Philips, five stars for that.

item is good. but not working properly

My experience:It's a good basic epilator, consisting of 20 rotating discs-able to pluck lots of hairs together. This is the reason for pain-which is bearable for me. The compact curvy model of BRE-235 is very good, appears modern, good for gripping. This model has no other accessories (other than a sensitive cap), which appeared to be a good option for me. The noise is common with every epilator….it's a bit loud.For me, I had to epilate after every 1 week for a month...slowly I had to epilate after every 1.5 week for another month & at present I'm epilating after every 2 weeks i.e. twice a month. So by this, we can conclude that with continuous epilation, hair regrowth reduces. So, in the long run it is possible that hair growth will reduce further with continuous epilation.Preps before epilating:Take a warm bath- this opens poresExfoliate a day before (using a scrubbing brush or scrubs available in the market).During epilating:Hold the skin taut- a very important stepHold the epilator at 90° against the skinGlide it (like a razor, but slow-to allow hairs to be plucked).About the device:This device uproots the hairs from the skin (similar to waxing) but does not affect skin, since it only glides over it. Thus this device is better than waxing as it does not have any chance of scarring, or making skin sun sensitive.This device is a dry epilator and cannot be used during showers.The epilator removes hairs 0.5mm better than waxing- you've to grow hair and then go for waxing + can't remove tiny hairs, this lets you be ready anytime, anywhere.Advantages of this device:*Compact.*Travel friendly.*Corded- can be used immediately during emergencies (unplanned parties!).*Long chord.*Stubble free, totally! (Compared to shaving).*No expertise required, mess free, long lasting (compared to waxing).*Environmental friendly.*One time investment.Disadvantages of this device:*Ingrown hairs (prevented with regular exfoliation).*Red patches-resolves within a few hours.*Pain-but bearable.*Metal tweezers heats up- use after every 20 mins, then rest, repeat.*Sensitive cap- personally, I couldn't use it as it was better to use the epilator directly for removing armpit hairs. Also the cap covers only 4 tweezers, so only 16 tweezers are used. Also, a distance is formed, which hurts more.Suggestion: (for Amazon)In the description of Amazon, it's mentioned that this product is from 'China'...it's not correct. The company originated from the Netherlands and they have multiple manufacturing units, in various countries. The one I received is manufactured in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Africa. The quality of the product is good as it's tested during and after manufacturing by Philips themselves.Rest all descriptions given are correct. The offer provided is very amazing.Suggestions:Go ahead, take a leap of faith & buy this product. It's like use it or lose it!It's a very beneficial product...and can literally change your life!
