Designed for efficient, long-lasting and extra gentle hair removal, the Silk-épil 5 is ideal for women who are new to epilation. It uses Close-grip technology with 40 tweezers that approach the skin at an optimal angle to grip hair even closer to the skin and remove even short and fine hair. The in-built high frequency massage system stimulates the skin and effectively soothes the plucking sensation during epilation to maximize your skin comfort. In addition the included cooling glove effectively cools the skin before and soothes it after epilation to further increase your comfort. The Silk-épil 5 uses special SoftLift Tips that Effectively lift even flat-lying hair and help guide them to the tweezers for removal, meanwhile the epilator's pivoting head flexes to pass fluidly across the contours of your body as it picks up hairs. Ensuring you don't miss anything, Smartlight helps easily guide your way through the epilation process and lightens up even the finest hairs for no miss removal and speed. The Silk-épil 5 also comes with two speed settings allowing you to easily flick between two modes of use for more specialised performance: speed 1 for slow gentle epilation, ideal for grooming delicate and sensitive areas; speed 2 on the other hand offers faster efficient epilation, ideal for scouring tougher areas such as the legs. This epilator also comes with a powerful cleansing brush for faces. Cleanses 6x better than manual with 60,000 micro touches per second that gently exfoliate and visibly refine skin complexion. This epilator is not cordless.
