To be honest, epilators are not so popular in my country. The mostly used method of hair removal are waxing and plucking. I did not even know what epilators are before someone asked me to try epilators!I’ve a review about a certain brand of epilator brewing up, and before I have it up, I would like to ask my readers – do you use epilators, and how has it fared on you?I’d love to hear from you!
Oh my gosh I didn’t even know people used these anymore. I don’t use one. My mom used to have one like way back in the day and I remember her screaming in the bathroom because it hurt so bad lol
I use a Braun Silk Epil, mostly because i think it’s more earthy friendly than disposing of razors all the time, but I only have to use it once a week too (if I remember) :-0
That’s good thinking Kim! It never crossed my mind that there’s an alternative to razors.
As a guy though, I can’t stand electric shavers. This epilator thing has me thinking though. Do they make such a thing for nose hairs? I can’t stand nose hair, and to be able to zap it away for at least a while longer would be a blessing! Any thoughts?
The first time I tried an epilator was 10 years ago when my sister’s then-boyfriend (now husband) bought her one from Hong Kong.
At that time, it was a sort of painful experience. I would dread having to use the epilator but then I know that it was worth all the pain…
I hate shaving! I was traumatized when I got a very long razor burn on my legs and never tried shaving again.
Anyway, unfortunately, my sister’s epilator got broken and from then on I started getting myself waxed at salons.
And then lately, I had a friend buy me an epilator from HK. She got me the Braun Silk Epil
And compared to before, the experience isn’t as painful since I’m using to waxing 
It’s actually quite addicting, haha!
I’m definitely loving my epilator now. It definitely saves me a lot of money since I don’t have to pay for a monthly wax… and I pay like Php 1,000 just to be hairless .. monthly!
I use EPILADY’s epilator. It is better than waxing and shaving!!!
I’ve heard a lot about the Braun Silk Epil. Do you think that’s available in the Philippines and where?
