...for the slightly more expensive Braun Silk.epil Xelle.
The Silk.epil Xelle claims to be the most effective epilator ever (as stated on the box) and Braun’s most gentle.
***Price***
I bought mine for £54.99 from Argos. I found it in Boots for £59.99 but I’m not sure if you can get it any cheaper on the internet. I think it’s quite expensive so it might be worth shopping around.
***The Package***
It comes in a dark pink box, which on the ...

Advantages: Spotlight for seeing little hairs Disadvantages: slightly painful
I had the old Braun silk-epil since about 1999 and when it gave up the ghost I started shaving again. After a couple of months I noticed that I was hairier than usual and got really annoyed at having to shave every couple of days so decided to invest in another of Braun's epilators.
I must admit that this particular model comes with lots of accessories (shaving head, small/starter epilator head, intermediate epilator head with massager, advanced ...

Advantages: Gets rid of hairs for longer, Disadvantages: loud, have to go over area a few times

The set arrives with the following contents:
A silver case to carry everything
An ice pack and silver case to put ...

Advantages: Effective, long-lasting Disadvantages: can be a long process
I bought the Braun Silk Epil X'elle 5685, as I'd just about had enough of the tedious chore of waxing, and the stubbly effects left by shaving, plus my friend had been raving about epliation ever since she bought hers last year.

Wow! Review ofBraun 5280 SILK-ÉPIL X´elle BODY System Eby

Advantages: Quick and easy to use Disadvantages: Painful to start with
I bought myself one of these epilators after joining my local gym and swimming pool. I was sick to death of shaving and waxing and thought there must be an easier way!! This is definately it!!
You get an ice pack which i would recommend using for the first few times as i did find it alot more painful than waxing and it is easier, and less messy to use.
This epilator also has a handy light which lights up the area you are epilating so you can see ...
