I passed this on to my partner to review and here is what she had to say about it:
Instructions are brief for few are needed. Remove the hair from your limbs in your usual fashion. Twenty four hours later, run this pretty little machine (it looks so sweet and innocent!) across your skin at a ninety-degree angle. Ensure you do this in a sound-proof room so as to avoid disturbing those of a nervous disposition with your screams of horror.
For as long as I could stand it, I tested this nifty little gadget and there's no doubt that it epilated extremely well: legs become smooth and hair free and presumably stay that way for as long as they would after a wax. Obviously the advantages over salon-waxing are clear: this little machine is portable, you can use it at home or away and it is so much cheaper - it very quickly pays for itself. It has a plethora of attachments too. I'm still trying to figure out what some of these do.
But the main event is the epilator and good...

I was scared to use this little machine, because I had heard epilators will hurt and I didn't want that, however I also want to get rid the hairy leg look without shaving so I bravely gave this a try.
And it doesn't hurt!!
I used the exfoliating brush the day before….and then bravely seat down to work. All I felt was a slight not even uncomfortable tingly maybe scratchy sensation…but no pain.
Holding this epilator is easy….I am clumsy but the shape is ergonomic and it totally fits my hand.
You hold it at a 90 degree angle and it makes a little buzzing sound. I ran it gently over my legs sometimes going over the same place a few times (it's not a shaver) and then all the hair was gone and it had only taken minutes.
I smoothed in some lavender body lotion and that was it,job done.
To clean the machine there is a little brush and then a gentle rinse under the tap.
I now have very smooth legs and cannot believe it was so...

First - do not bin the box - seems the instructions for using this epilator are on the outside of the box or otherwise - online. Gave this to my wife so the rest of this review is her report.
Unlike a previous reviewer no discomfort at all, it pulled the hairs but not my flesh and left my skin smooth with no inflammation. Having said that the skin on my legs is like leather as I was born and raised on a farm in the interior of Brazil where the average daily temp was about 44C and I was never one for covering up. My legs are also extremely well hydrated due to almost daily use of moisturizing cream which I think helps a lot with hair removal of any description. I have never used a machine like this before, being for many years a believer in Wilkinson Ladies razors and blades and was quite impressed at the closeness of the result. Also used it underarm to good effect. Not used it on my bikini line, after three kids and at my age bikinis do not play an important part of...
