elysee electro pen - amazing hair removal

Advantages: works really well, easy to use
Disadvantages: not so great for legs - would take a while

this pen is soooo easy to use! it is the only one that is exactly as it says. it is PAINLESS! it comes with cleansing gel, conductive gel and loads of different attatchments. it also comes with tweezers but they're awful, way too sharp and painful. i thought i would run out of gel pretty quickly but it lasts ages. i haven't tried the pads for your legs etc yet. i've been doing my eyebrows with it and it seems to work, not even any regrowth for ...

Review of Elysee ELEC PEN

A LADY'S HELPER

Advantages: Helps to stop hair growth.
Disadvantages: Needs patience and constant treatment.

...looked flimsy and unprofessional. The Beautiko product was well packaged, looked professional, seemed to have the best set of instructions, and I liked the portability of the machine, packed in a neat zipped wash bag, giving a choice of tips (explained later), and providing Gel and Conditioner which were easily available at a later date from online beauty stores at 10.00 GBP a tube. The package. When the package arrived, I was quite excited at the ...
...any more. Nothing works instantly or permanently, and having been accustomed to either plucking or waxing, I wanted to find a method that prevented the growth in the first place. In my particular case, the pen was for use on the face and not on areas of the body like legs, bikini line or armpits. The reason for this is that wax works in those areas very well, although as explained later, I have changed my thinking since using the pen. With the kit, ...

Review of Beautiko Electrolysis PEN

Rio scanning laser hair remover

Advantages: none
Disadvantages: time consuming, expensive, ineffective

At over £90 i thought this was expensive but was won over by the claims of permamnent hairlessness! This gadget has a little laser that you have to direct at every individual hair you want to treat, after you have put water onto it. The instrucitons do say that each hair may need several treatments to be affected and the laser only works if you have it pointing right at the root, which may not necessarily be directly under the visible part fo the ...
...you have to zap them one at a time. I have spent many hours using the laser on one leg only, for comparison, and and they still look the same. This product has made no observable difference to the level of hair on my leg. The product says it is not safe for those with an afro-caribean skin and is most effective on paler skins. I am very pale skinned and had the gadget on full power -still no effect. ...

Review of Rio Scanning LASE

rio remover

Advantages: good guide
Disadvantages: all of it

I bought this laser hair remover thinking from the description that it does a big area at one time, but I was wrong! When the laser hair remover arrived I was really happy as I thought that it did a big area of removal in one go but it only did one hair at a time. this would definatly take a long time to do 2 half leg removal's. It didnt actually work to remove the hair, you got to put it on the root of the hair and then it will zap the hair folicule. ...
...romoved. The description of the remover was very much incorrect to what it actually does. I was very dissappointed in the contraption. The remover can be used by the main's, it has a key to turn it on, has a strength guide from low to high. I personally wouldnt use this again ...

Review of Rio Laser HAIR RE

Elysee Soft Touch Permanent Hair Removal Pen

Advantages: Does what it says, removes hair
Disadvantages: None exept make sure where you put the probe

Elysee Permanent Hair Removal System Having being either disappointed with wax strips and other products for hair removal, and spent fortunes trying to find a product that does what it says, I decided to try the Soft Touch permanent hair removal system by Elysee. The painless and permanent claim drew me to give it a try. So….. Cost £35 - yes a bit expensive but was worth the price. Contents. The system comes with all you need to operate it (no ...
...anything extra like batteries!), and is neatly packed in a fold over pouch. The instruction guide that comes with it extensively explains how it works and how to use it in a simple way that can be easily understood. How it works Not being a scientist I have had to give the explanation in the booklet. Evidently, when you put the gel on the cotton bud in the pen, small pulses of completely safe electrical energy pass through the gel o to the cotton ...
