Just look at those contours!
Review of Philips Ladyshave Body Contour HP6317/02 by
goth_tart
Advantages: Different heads for shaving different areas, compact, 40 mins of shaving from 2xAA batteries
Disadvantages: Shave not as close as it could be, flimsy travel pouch, no safety switch
...deliberating, I opted for the Philips Ladyshave Contour. It claims to be a multi-functioning shaver - 2 different foils, a bikini line trimmer and you can use it wet or dry! Oh and it comes with 2x AA batteries so you can literally get shaving right away. RESULT! Your standard shaver comes with a silver foil, you get a gold foil, which is supposed to be good for shaving sensitive areas like bikini line and underarms, you get your plastic bikini trimmer ... ...you can hang the shaver up in the shower (does anyone actually do this?!), you get a little brush to clean out the shaver and you get a satiny pouch to store everything in.
So onto how it works: I tried the silver foil, which seems to have slightly larger holes in but I found it ripped the skin on my legs off. However, the gold foil didn't so I'm just sticking to that now. The bikini trimmer bit fits over the main shaver foil and trims to just one ...

Hair Removal!
Review of Epicare Hair Removal by
jessicababe
Advantages: Amzing! Inexpensive and It Really Works!
Disadvantages: none!
...what I think of the Epicare Threader...I think it's excellent because it's very easy to use and less damaging and painful than waxing. I've used the traditional threading method for my upper lip for a while now but could never use it well for my cheeks due to the angle of the cheeks making positioning the thread very difficult. Hence, I have been using wax strips for my cheeks. However, the Epicare Threader is more easy to position over the cheeks. ... ...of the face would. The Epicare Threader removed that hair without such problems arising. And finally it has the advantage of not breaking easily like my thread would many times before I had finished threading. All in all I think it's a great product and it is more easy to maintain the hair free skin because one can spend a few minutes every couple of days going over the same areas without it being much of a hassle...it's not difficult to make it ...

Philips Ladyshave Body Contour
Review of Philips Ladyshave Body Contour HP6317/02 by
josiesorge
Advantages: Quick and easy to use
Disadvantages: Shaving is as close and doesnt last as long
This product is very quick and easy to use on legs, but unfortunately it does not shave quite as closely as it makes out. It is great if you are in a rush to go out and need to shave quickly, but maybe not the best it you need the shaving to last for longer! I have had no problems at all when using it to shave my legs but it is quite tricky to use on the bikini area and you have to be careful not to catch the skin! I would recommend this product ...

Epicare hair removal
Review of Epicare Hair Removal by
toyah999
Advantages: removes hair without chemical
Disadvantages: very painful at first
i ordered this from the Epicare website. i must have spent hundreds and pounds over the years on every hair removal product invented. So at a mere £9.95 i had nothing to loose.
When i received my package, i was amazed at how simple it looked, a metal coil like length with two plastic ends. you bend the coil into a horse shoe shape and twist away against the grain of the hair. With the packaging there is some useful tips plus on their website they ...

Chemical-free facial hair removal
Review of Epicare Hair Removal by
Sparklemouse
Advantages: Easy to use, no chemicals, no batteries. Discreet.
Disadvantages: Painfull to use!
...pleased to discover that the Epicare was perhaps the safest option with regard to hair regrowth and skin damage.
I found the Epicare website (thinkbeauty.co.uk) via Google and spent quite a while looking at the information found there. They seem to go to great lengths to reassure you about the product, which I suppose is necessary when you're about to alter your appearance in any way. "How bad could it be?" I thought. "It's just like having 500 ... ...to lose.
The actual Epicare implement is a pliable metal spring just over 10cm long (visible spring). It has a coloured plastic handle at each end of the spring for you to grip when using it. The handles are slightly textured, making them easy to hold. It comes in a cardboard sleeve with an instruction leaflet.
I bought my Epicare from one of their agents on Ebay and got it for a bit less than the normal price of £9.95 (+ p&p). Even on the Ebay ...
