I love it

I have pretty thick hair and emjoi epislim actually plucked it from the root. It is slightly painful in some areas where I seem to be more sensitive like the upper lip, than oppose to my eyebrows, but after using it for months now I realized that using a fresh pack of batteries will hurt more than a pair that is at mid point level energy. I use rechargeable batteries as well. So for those who complained about pain, try not using a fresh set of batteries and see how that goes.

I recieved my Epilator today and I tried it right away. Who ever says it hurts either has a low tolorance for pain or they should try using it at a different time of the month depending on your cycle. $20.00 you will not be dissapointed. It did not "cut" my hair it pulled them out. It's not overly loud, you just can do it in the office! lol I absolutely love it and I feel like I got a steel!
LOW PRICE AND DOES THE JOB!

I have gone through 3 epilators by 3 name brands like emjoi and each one costed me between 70-110 and this last one that I tried worked the same way and the best thing is its convenient for travel as well. It works great!
best thing I ever bought myself

This is fantastic. I bought it to use on my chin. I have had my facial hair lazor removed and now have random black course hairs, along with old age also has come farsightedness and I found tweezing quite hard and thought an all at once would be easier. I loved the results and began using it on more areas of my face. I also use it to remove the thin peach ve fuzz above my lip, and to pluck my eyebrows. I don't know how I ever managed with out this thing! My only conplaint is sometimes I tend to get some pimples after using. Using a topical coritsone cream seems to helps aliviate this problem.
So glad I bought this...

I had never tried an epilator before this but I am so glad I did! The first time I tried it, the fine hairs came out very quickly and easily but the thicker hairs didn't. So I tweezed the thicker hairs. As the tweezed hairs grew back they were finer, so I was able to use the epilator on them the next time. I have done a light touch up with the epilator every 2-3 days so far (it's been about 2 weeks now) but the hair seems to be hardly growing back at all!! I am amazed! It sure beats shaving every day!!! You have to move it in small, fast circles over your skin to catch the hairs. You can't just move it in a straight line. Also, the first time I used it, it was slightly uncomfortable but after that the hairs you are pulling are finer and they come out easier so it is less painful each time you use it. I do recommend using this at night before bed so that your skin can calm down overnight, but this becomes less necessary as the hairs get finer. Also it really helps your skin if you exfoliate before and after using the epilator. I highly recommend this product.
Best Hair Removal Product Ever

I purchased this product a few months ago from Folica for use on my chin and upper lip area. This is the best product I have ever used. At first, hair removal was slightly painful and I was having a problem with minor underskin bumps (not many, but annoying). But, after a couple of weeks of use, the bumps stopped and my skin has never been smoother. I went from waxing weekly to having a new box of wax unopened for about two months! It's great for the face. I'm no longer self-conscious about this issue.
Best Product for Facial Hair

All poor review are due to the product being used for bigger areas. This has to be used on the face ONLY. It is perfect for it. I used to own a different one that was not good. This one is perfect for facial hair. I recommend it to everybody.
Touchups are a breeze

Use this all the time for touching up bikini area and for taking off the tiny hair from face and hands. I love the way my face feels when I'm done - so soft. I had tried waxing but it tends to be time-consuming and messy, and it works no better than this epilator. I like using this so much that I ordered a larger one to use on larger areas like my legs. It is true that it probably hurts the most the first time you use it, and even then it is not that bad. (I am not a very hairy person so maybe it will hurt more if you are.)
Great Little Product

I've been using EpiSlim for 2 years now and it's the best 20 bucks I ever spent. I have spent hundreds if not thousands on other hair removal products (but not laser) and this takes out the hair and I have to use it less often. I have blonde but strong facial hair on my chin, cheeks, lip and neck--yuk! (thank you menopause!!!)I use it every other night for about 5 minutes and I am hair free. Even use it on my sideburns. Just a few days ago I tried it on my arms, and whoa, it worked great! One more place I don't have to use a hair removal cream...that I use on my legs and private areas--waxing is too costly and too painful. Epislim is a lot less pain, in my opinion, or else I've just gotten used to it! Super product!
