Function and use

Before use you need to charge the battery. In a discharged state, it beeps, red light on the case. During charging it flashes green. A fully charged battery lasts about 2 hours — more than enough to epilate all the necessary areas, and even massage enough ????

1. Hair removal

9-970 Braun Silk-epil SkinSpa 9 SensoSmart

During operation of the appliance are illuminated, it is quite convenient — it is not necessary to scrutinize and seek out the hairs.

Noise the unit is not much when the door is closed, you can do hair removal even at night)

Tweezers as much as 40! This allows you to handle much larger area, plus there are massage rollers that are good to catch and direct the hairs to the tweezers.

Does it hurt? Of course, Yes! He pulls the hair, and even a bunch of tweezers at once! But I am glad that with the new model, the process is very fast and efficient — to be held in one place twice is not necessary. With legs epilator did fine with the first “pass”, but of course, with a few ingrown hairs not right — but this should not be expected, ingrown hairs need to fight separately. Slight skin irritation remained, but the skin had calmed down for a couple of hours.

Not very aesthetic (!), but revealing Before and After:

Is included attachment for a more intimate contact with the skin for hair removal armpits:

And nozzle for epilation of the face — it covers part of the tweezers to work more point:

Head of hair removal armpits I honestly tried, but my pain threshold does not allow “to wield” in this area a while ago, so can’t appreciate its convenience.

Epilator I’m still using only feet — no wonder nozzles do not reduce the level of sensitivity so that I was able to tolerate the hair removal other, more sensitive areas.

2. Massage and peeling

The rotating head can be replaced by a second and use the device for massage and skin peels:

• Blue brush — for deep peeling, is struggling with ingrown hair

Soft, but effective brush for a deeper exfoliation has a unique triangular bristle shape. With regular use helps prevent ingrown hairs under the skin and visibly improves its appearance.

• Purple brush — for soft peeling and restores skin

Thick brush with 10000 tiny bristles gently removes dead skin cells and stimulates its regeneration. For irresistible smooth and silky skin to which it is impossible not to touch.

• Turquoise — nozzle for a deep massage helps to improve the skin’s appearance

Massaging your skin deeper than a regular brush for the body. It increases blood circulation, improve the skin’s appearance.

Brushes for exfoliation , I tried to solve the problem of ingrown hair remaining after hair removal — no result received. I think they can work only as a preventive measure and only for very sensitive skin. In my subjective opinion, any rough scrub will be more effective against growing, besides to cope with the already established ingrown hair.

Head massage seemed too weak – no increasing blood circulation I felt, there was no feeling of warmth or redness of the skin. Again, I think, is much more effective to use for skin tone stiff brush or rough scrub.

But if the skin is sensitive, then maybe these tips will be more than enough.

3. Cleansing

Quite surprisingly, included with the epilator is a device for individuals, but may be for someone it is an opportunity to kill two birds with one stone — one set ????

9-970 Braun Silk-epil SkinSpa 9 SensoSmart

• White and pink brushes are very soft — they are suitable for dry and sensitive skin.
• Blue brush more rigid, suitable for normal and oily skin.

The case has a power button and a button for speed adjustment (2 versions)

The device works on batteries, they must be inserted by removing the lower part of the handle of the device:

The device is suitable for dry peeling and to enhance the lack of effective cleansers, for example, a gentle cleanser.

The device could replace the scrubs and gommage, or exfoliation-the bedroll, and to cope with the flaking of dead skin cells. But, of course, not comparable on the effect with mechanical cleaning! It is the peeling that can make the skin softer and softer, but not able to really clean the pores. Perhaps such a device would be useful for owners of dry and normal skin without obvious blackheads and enlarged pores. Me, the owner of normal skin, prone to fat, the device was not impressed.

Comparison with the old model Braun and my impressions

• My “old man” Braun silk epil eversoft is plugged in, and has a very short cord — it is extremely uncomfortable, it is necessary to use a carrier. And I’m very happy with the new model is to use a cordless epilator is much more convenient.
• The noise level of new items is much lower, which makes the use more comfortable. Also pleased with the lighting.
• Tweezers in an old model in 2 times less, only 20 had to “mark time” in the same place for a long time, until finally all the hair does not fall into the tweezers. With Braun 9-970 process much faster and more efficiently, also helps and massage nozzle, guide hairs.
• But picking the old device I liked more: the bundle includes the trimmer and attachments for shaving. And in my opinion, it is far more logical than massage nozzles and especially to the face.
• Tips for prevention ingrown hair — the idea is certainly good, but it was too weak they were in. If I had to choose the epilator in the store, you would prefer a different configuration. I shouldn’t have to overpay for a weak massage and peeling. And the device (if it does) it is more logical to purchase separately, based on their needs person and not get it included with the device for the legs.

Term of use: 1 month

My rating: 5 epilator, 2 attachments and 3 massage device for the face.

I am very happy with directly by the appliance – it is very comfortable and high quality, making the hair removal easy and fast. But the package I did not like — massage and peeling nozzle painfully weak and not particularly functional for my taste.

Thank you for your attention!

P. S: do You use similar apparatuses for massage or facial? Are there ways to increase the efficiency of such devices?
