Slightly bigger than a mascara brush, the Braun Face 810 is just perfect for maintaining your facial hair. However, it's not only the small size that you'll like about it. Another thing you'll definitely appreciate is the fact that it can be safely used for both wet and dry epilation, due to its waterproof design and battery-powered operation. These two factors make the Braun Face 810 not only extremely convenient to use but also very portable, giving you the option to carry it with you wherever you go. Since the head (where all the tweezer are) has to be big enough to use on your body too, it’s going to be bigger than many other facial epilators. However, there are a few reasons I still recommend this epilator specifically for facial hair.

Although this portable eyebrow epilator cuts the hair as close to the surface as possible, it won’t cut your skin. Also, it won’t make your skin irritated. Cleanse the skin before using the hair remover and moisturize it with body lotion after the usage. Face oils and lotions are a big no-no! Don't apply any moisturiser, cream, lotion, or oil on your face before epilating. Keep your skin clean and dry.This epilator has been around for a while, so it’s been well tested and the pros and cons are very apparent. It’s a corded epilator so has lots of power to pull out coarse hair without problems. This makes it a great choice for budget-conscious women who need a more powerful epilator than the Emjoi Epi-Slim. Always clean your device after every use to avoid any infections. Removing the lingering hair also ensure you achieve efficient results after the next use. There are plenty of benefits of choosing epilation as your go-to method of hair removal, the main one being that it’s a godsend for sensitive skin. A good face epilator is designed to pull only the hair, not the skin, resulting in minimal irritation. The recommendation is to epilate in the bath, or just afterwards, to ensure the pores are open for easier hair removal. Hair removal with thread is a special method that uses the cotton thread to remove your hair. It is an ancient Egyptian hair removal method. The Cocojojo manufacturers have designed their device to do this job mechanically. It is easy and completely safe to use on any type of skin. Unfortunately, it’s not the abosolute best at pulling out all hairs. I’ve found I have to go pretty slowly or it will just cut off the hairs at the skin’s surface instead of pulling them out.

She interviewed multiple dermatologists and industry experts for this story, including Dr. Shereene Idriss, Dr. Hadley King, Dr. Nava Greenfield, and Dr. Julie Russak. The no!no! Genius is a super-multifunctional tool that offers a lot of frills for not a lot of money. Available at just a fraction of big names, it comes with four different heads for effective facial care regimen, which include a massager, a facial cleansing brush, an epilator, and a shaver. I recommend this mostly for finer hairs, though, because it tends to break coarser hairs off at the surface.The rounded design is great for the bikini area, and there's an ergonomic grip,” says Dr. King. “I like that the epilator head can be detached and washed under running water. Plus, there's an extra cap that can be placed on the epilator head for more gentle epilation in sensitive areas.” A face epilator is an electronic device that pulls out hair from the root with minimal pain. So, epilation helps remove even the finest and shortest of facial hair, which may not be possible through waxing. Moreover, face epilators are easy to handle, making them a convenient DIY option. It is less messy and painful while facial waxing can be a messy affair when done at home all by yourself. Not to forget the pain that comes along with it! However, I recommend investing in the best epilator you can afford to save yourself from wasting time or getting bad results. The Braun Silk-épil 7 7/880 Sensosmart is a nice, high-end epilator that gets the job done for all hair types on not only the face but the body and legs as well. This all depends on the speed of your hair regrowth and what epilator you’re using but you can typically expect results to last at least four weeks, which is impressive for an at-home hair removal method. When it comes to epilating the key is to have a routine: the more you epilate, the finer the hairs will become over time, which results in a less painful and time-consuming epilation. If you’re new to it, try to epilate once a week and you’ll notice the process becomes easier each time.

Whether you’re new to epilating or you’re simply looking for a wallet-friendly too, we think this one from Remington is a great option. It delivers on its promise to remove hair and deliver smooth results, and it’s also cordless, lightweight, and easy to operate, making it ideal for beginners. As for the epilator itself, it’s honestly mostly so-so with catching hairs. Some people seem to get great results, but most people report that it misses hairs so you have to go over areas multiple times and sometimes finish up with tweezers to get some strays. The key is to choose an epilator that is meant for facial epilating, as not all epilators are designed for the face. So, it is best to use the one designed specifically for the face or for all areas. I am specifically recommending the Gillette version because it comes without the attachments and therefore, has the lowest price. There are several different Braun versions with different attachments for facial cleansing and exfoliation, but I honestly wouldn’t recommend them for most people because they could be too harsh for facial skin.

The Braun SensoSmart Silk-epil 7 is a cordless, waterproof Epilator that is designed to help you get the best results by using smart pressure sensors to prevent excessive pushing. Using the right amount of pressure helps to prevent irritation of sensitive skin and reduces unnecessary strain on the epilator. The best epilators are efficient, comfortable to hold and handle hair removal with ease. Below are key considerations to keep in mind when choosing between epilator models. Tweezers The Bellabe is a manual epilator. So basically, it pulls hairs out with a spring like the original epilators from the 1980s. But instead of the springs moving automatically like those epilators, you hold the spring with little handles and roll it yourself across your face. When it comes to a cleansing brush, it's ideal for removing makeup and oils. It works gently on the skin and is safe for sensitive type. With hundreds of micro-oscillates, it's 6x more effective than manual cleaning.
