To be honest I was quite apprehensive about trying an epliator again because of the pain. I bought one a few years ago but only managed a couple of goes before I threw it away. Nevertheless I was determined to give this one a go.For those of you who have not used an epliator before, it is pretty much a shaver type product that has tiny tweezers inside the head to pull the hair out. I read the instructions before starting but was surprised to find that it did not have a normal plug socket on the end; just one of those 2 prong shaver plugs. Luckily I had an adapter in the house. I found it very easy to use, particularly with the light and rotating head, which makes it a lot more comfortable and gets a closer grip.

This kit is aimed at epilation newbies and did not disappoint.In order to truly put this epilator through its paces I let my leg hairs grow enough that I did not totally resemble a sasquatch, but enough that I could judge how well it dealt with hairs of different lengths.I am a regular epilator and have had several models over the years all of which have served me well.The head is quite narrow compared to my normal epilator which meant I had to go up and down a lot my leg more than normal to get rid of the hairs, but for facial use its narrow head is an advantage.On the plus side the Braun Silk Epil 5780 was quick,

So as a confirmed wuss and epilator virgin, I was not massively looking forward to this, but hate shaving my legs, only just stopped crying from the first and last time I waxed and cannot abide the smell of creams.....I at first thought it was rechargeable, so after the initial confusion, I read the instructions, which were pretty straight forward, I also familiarised myself with the array of attachments and accessories that come with the epilator. Loads of different attachments for different body areas, or gentle epilating.Once I had cooled the gel pack in the freezer, I decided to give the epilator a try, I had not shaved my legs for 10 days, so they were quite stubbly,

Took me a long time to pluck up the courage to actually try this as I had been told that it hurts. I thought it was fab that the product comes with a cooling glove (essentially an ice pack) that you put in the freezer two hours before use and you can use it to almost numb the skin before epilating and cool after epilating. The epilator also comes with different head adapters for different body parts, and has 2 speed controls. This is particular useful as a beginner when you are not ready to be quite so full on straight away. I used the epilator on my tummy and my legs and the experience it's self was not as painful as expected. However it was still a little uncomfortable but no more than any other hair removal i.e waxing.

This is my first epilator hence i have been waiting to see how long it will take for the hair to grow back to give you a useful feedback. I was genuinely kicking myself for buying one and lucky me #gotitforfree from bzzAgent.to start off with;The light is really useful as it shows you the finest hair, along with the 2 speed settings,a slower gentler one and a quicker one, it is nice to hold and easy to clean.Pulls hair right from the root and I find that the hairs grow back so much finer with continued use. I personally think it is enough to use once a week. it gets so much easier once you get use it. I have not used the accessories (cooling glove with gel pack, massaging attachment etc)

I have used an epilator before but I gave up a year or so ago as I found the one I was using was so time consuming and didn't do a great job, so I couldn't wait to try the Silk-Epil. It was nicely packaged and as we have a shaver socket in the bathroom, it was no problem to charge up. The Olay wipes were a nice touch as they cool down your legs before you start.Well firstly I loved the light. It makes it so easy to see what you are doing and also makes it obvious if you need to go over a section again. Great idea guys. The pivoting head is also really good. I don't need to go into contortions to reach the back of my legs, which is quite important as I nearly fell off my bathroom stool using my last epilator!

This was my first time using an epilator but it won't be my last. The Braun Silk-Epil 5 is perfect for a first time user.There are plenty of attachments to help ease the pain - I particularly like the massaging rollers. If it gets uncomfortable there is a special soothing pack which you keep in the freezer. This was included in the box.Hair removal is good and my legs felt smooth afterwards. This improved on the second use (probably as my skin reacted less). I haven't tried it anywhere apart from my legs but the epilator is suitable for many areas. (Each with it's own attachment).The instructions were in depth and helped me out as a first time user.The epilator itself is a nice design and is compact for easy storage.

I have never used an epilator before. I usually shave my legs and underarms, and pluck or wax my bikini line but not any more... I love this product. It is quick to use, doesn't hurt as much as I expected, and I was very happy with the results. I have been hair free since, with no re growth yet which is great. The hair on my legs was very short as I had recently shaved, and this epilator didn't manage to get the really short hairs. It has a light which is powerful enough to light up the area being shaved and this is really useful and works well, and the shape of the product is easy to hold and use, and small enough to take away on trips. I also really like the facial cleanser, which I have used every night.

As a first time user of an epilator I am definitely converted!! I found the Braun epilator so easy to use once I had looked at it. I used it on my legs and I didn't have any discomfort until I did my big toes. I have to say I am used to having my legs waxed and the hairs on my legs are quite sparse so maybe that is why I didn't feel any pain. When I epilated I had varying lengths of hairs some long and some short and the Braun coped with them all very well leaving my legs silky smooth I found it quick to do with very little effort and the added bonus of no smell or sticky wax unlike chemical or waxing techniques. After use it was easy to clean and I had no reaction to the epilation.

This is not the first time I have used an epilator but it is the first time in a very long time. I was very delighted to see a smooth finish with a virtually pain free experience when using the Braun Silk-epil 5. I was happy that their was a choice of 2 settings which eases you into using the epilator. I am very hairy by nature and I find that I have to shave every 3 days but with this I have been left relatively smooth and definitely not prickly for close to a week. I like that it comes with a cool pack but I didn't notice that much of difference when using it, a nice added extra. I also like that it comes with a travel pouch for easy storage and travelling of course.

The SILK-ÉPIL 5 was adjustment to my regular grooming routine. The hair removal was a nice alternative to my regular waxing and chemical hair removal routine. In my own view, the corded epilator made it easy to epilate my hair in one go without having to recharge. Another plus was the fact that I could clean it under regular water, following the instructions in the booklet -this was is to read by the way. Another wonderful feature was the guiding light to make sure all the little hairs gone for my OCD complexities. I didn't have a need to use the attachment for facial hair, but I am yet to try to meeting my eyebrows as the attachment was small enough to do so.

First impressions of this product are good...the product is easy to use and instructions easy to follow. I'm pleased I read because it tells you to put the cooling pad into the freezer a couple of hours before use. I began on the first setting as I was nervous about using it but after the initial shock it's a pain you get used to so continued on setting two. Of course you have more sensitive areas on your legs..mine were especially so around the ankles. It has a great little guiding light to show up all of those pesky hairs and although the epilator is great on hairs 2-5mm in length as stated its not good for any shorter but that's easy to rectify by using it the next day to catch any stragglers.

I received my kit today and me and my husband used the products straight away. I found the silk epil series 5 very easy to use. I pt came with a massaging head, a face head, a body head and a shaving foil head with a guard for your intimate area. It comes with a charging base and lead with a euro plug (adapter needed). I used the massaging head on my legs and I hardly felt a thing. I then took it to the bath with me and used it to do under my arms, which was very pain free, just a little uncomfortable. It has two speeds and a very bright light. I only have a couple of down sides to it: a. The carry pouch could've been better quality, but as it's going to sit on my shelf, I won't need it and b.

On receiving this a bit late due to it being left with a neighbour I was excited to get it home and try it. When i opened up I was disappointed to find it needed a plug adapter as I wasn't aware this would be an issue. I finally found one and got to trying my epilator out.I used the cooling glove which had been in the freezer and i feel this really helped with the epilation. It was very uncomfortable at first as I have not used an epilator before but i have gotten used to the feel of it now and the glove really does help.It gave a very close shave and my legs feel silky. I think it would be improved alot of you were able to use it cordless and in the shower.I have seen people talk about different heads with epil 5s but this only had the one.

I received my Braun silk epil just the day before my holiday, what fantastic timing as I had not shaved whilst waiting for my parcel to arrive. I've never used an epilator before so was a little nervous of the pain level I might incur but thought it will be worth it for silky smooth legs. A massive bonus for me was to be able to use this in the bath so that I could be nicely relaxed. The result: Mmm, certainly not without pain! I did have to grit my teeth and it took several attempts for me to go over the same area to achieve a smooth finish which then made that area feel sore. First impressions are good and I think it will take me a few attempts to use it properly to get the best results.
