Philips BRI949/00 Lumea Prestige
Perfectly Tailored for Your Needs
IPL photo epilation is a pain-free and time-saving hair removal method and with this state-of-the-art device by Philips, keeping your skin perfectly smooth will be as easy as never before. Developed with dermatologists and clinically tested, this laser hair removal kit will help you gradually decrease the amount of body hair in a safe and effective way.
The hair removal device is recommended for users with dark blonde, brown or black hair and variable skin tones (from very white to dark brown). Note, however, that this epilating method is not recommended for women with red, light blonde, white or grey hair or very dark skin. This handy device has 5 energy settings and to take the guesswork out of choosing the most suitable one, it has the SmartSkin sensor introduced for detecting your skin tone and indicating the most comfortable mode.
For even more customised care, the laser hair machine comes with a set of attachments perfectly shaped to ensure proper contact with your skin when used on different body areas. For example, the included underarm attachment has a curved-out design ideal for treating this hard-to-reach area. The bikini attachment also has a curved design that perfectly complements your body shape. The curved-in body attachment has the largest window for maximum contact with your legs, stomach and arms. Finally, the face attachment for removing unwanted hair on your upper lip, jawline or chin has a small flat window and an extra filter for safe treatment of these sensitive areas. We should also add that each attachment activates the programme that was specially created for treating the corresponding area.
Revolutionary Approach
To get the most of your Philips Lumea Prestige, it is important to use the appliance in the correct way. The Lumea app (available for free) was specially created to ensure a personalised IPL experience. After all, with a treatment schedule for each body area, helpful treatment tips and reminders, it will be easier to achieve long-lasting silky-smooth results.
You can use this innovative hair removal device right from the box - no gels or refill cartridges are required. Moreover, the purchase includes a Satin Compact pen trimmer that you can carry in your bag to remove unwanted facial hairs at any comfortable time. Super easy to use, both the main unit and the included on-the-go trimmer have an elegant and stylish design. Alternatively, you can get a similar model that comes without the trimmer attachment.
To wrap it all up, the Philips Lumea Prestige is one of the best laser hair removal systems that you can use at home. Clinically tested, it will ensure gentle and effective treatment of even the most sensitive areas.

Braun IPL Silk Expert Pro 5 [PL5137]
Expert Treatment
The Braun Silk Expert Pro 5 is by far one of the best and most pleasant hair removers on the market. It's smaller and lighter than its predecessor but when it comes to its technical components, it's a bit more sophisticated.
Regarding the method it uses, it is the same as other IPL machines - you need to shave the area first and then position the device over your skin and press the button to emit the laser light. Speaking of the treatment methods, you get two options - Gliding and Stamping. The former is performed using the Standard head and is best used for larger areas. You simply keep the button pressed and run the hair remover over your legs while the light keeps flashing on and off as you go. The latter involves using the Precision head (included in the set) and pressing the button intermittently. This method is more effective for smaller areas such as the bikini line, underarms, knees, ankles, and face. These two working methods in combo along with interchangeable heads add to the flexibility of the device, favourably setting it apart from many rivals.
Another thing that adds appeal to theSilk Expert Pro 5 is that it's aplug and play device. You don't have any network connections to make and all you need to do is simply plug it in a power socket, choosing one of the10 intensity levels and 3 comfort modes (standard, gentle and extra gentle). Besides that, the device's fitted with asensor that cleverly"reads" your skin tone, automatically adjusting the light intensity to provide the best effect while keeping it safe. In case it detects aninvalid skin tone, the light will not flash.
What also sets thispiece of equipment over the competition is the fact that it comes with an accompanying Android/iOS Silk Expert pro App to track your treatments. The app is well-designed, has handy instructional videos, guides your treatment according to your skin and hair type, as well as giving you reminders of when to do your next procedure. Very useful in the absence of an expert consultation.
Attention to Details
The Braun IPL arrives well packaged in a very attractive box. Also included are a little gold stripe zip-up case, Venus razor, 10-page manual, and a 2-3 pin continental/UK plug. This means that you can not only use it straight away but also take it on holiday with you.
The device itself has a feel of a well-made, premium product. It's very comfortable to hold and manoeuvre around the body. It sits nicely in the hand without being too heavy, while the buttons on the top are easy to reach when using the device, whether you are left or right-handed.
Bottom line, the Braun IPL Silk Expert Pro 5 is a sophisticated machine that offers an effective way of removing and controlling unwanted hair. It's quite expensive but when you set the cost against the price of beauty salon treatments, it seems very reasonable.

Philips BRI921/00
Improved to be the Best
Women all across the globe choose Lumea devices for their great performance, nice design, and exceptional durability. And the model in question is an advanced model that has undergone some improvements to be the best in the Lumea lineup.
While the basic functions remain almost the same, there are certainly some nice enhancements. For instance, the sound is now a little more muted and the rose-metal design is a tad bit classier. The Lumea looks less like a hospital treatment but more like a luxury beauty device.
It's also become smaller and now weighs nearly 200g, meaning it's far easier to handle. Unlike some other Lumea models, this one can only be used corded. Luckily, it comes with a 2-meter lead, so we're not really seeing the corded operation as a negative. Plus, the corded devices typically ensure the faster recharge between flashes, and this one is no exception.
The IPL system boasts a quality build and fantastic performance. You can use it for long years without any drop in functionality. The results from this treatment are really on par with treatments available from costly clinics or spas.
For All-Body Grooming
The Philips SC1997 corded IPL hair removal device comes with a number of attachments for different parts of the body. Namely, the box includes a compact trimmer, a large 4mm exit window attachment, a smaller 2mm attachment, and a cleaning brush.
The large 4mm attachment is for use on the legs, and the smaller one is for use on bikini line/armpits/face (not suitable for eyebrows).
The included hair trimmer is slim and compact. It's ideal for hard-to-shave areas or for shaping. It comes completed with a battery, so you can start using the system right out-of-the-box. Just pre-shave the needed area, clip on the appropriate attachment, and select your chosen intensity. As soon as the white "ready light" comes on, press the flash button.
The device does generate some heat on the skin and you may feel the zap when it flashes. But it's generally not painful - something like a heat rash effect, no blistering though. Still, if you find it too uncomfortable, you may reduce the intensity.
The manufacturer guarantees at least 85% hair reduction in 3 treatments. However, all bodies are different and the times between top-up sessions may differ from person to person. For tracking your results and hair growth rate, you can download the free app from Philips website.
Overall, we wouldn't even hesitate to recommend this Philips IPL device. It's not the cheapest model on the market but it really works. If you're a kind of woman with a lot of hair all over your body, the Lumea Prestige IPL with different attachments may be the best bet for you.

SlkySmooth IPL
Lifetime Guarantee
Would you like to make a once-in-a-lifetime purchase without a need to spend extra money on consumables and spare bulbs? If so, the SlkySmooth IPL Hair Removal Device may catch your fancy. It's an innovative device that stands out from the competition with its incredible ability to provide up to 999,999 flashes, which is twice more than its rivals. What's more, it offers great performance with no loss in efficiency, allowing you to enjoy smooth results for many years.
Thanks to such an incredible bulb life, you will not need to change any bulbs throughout the whole life of the device (alifelong guarantee is provided by the manufacturer) and will be able to use it even for giving salon-like sessions to your friends if you want. Offering 5 energy levels and 2 modes (manual and automatic), the device offers fast, safe, and professional hair removal results for men and women alike. The manual mode will give you control over the bikini line while the auto mode will ensure effective treatment of larger body areas, like women's legs or men's back.
Designed for all skin sensitivity and treatment levels, the system can be used on a vast variety of skin tones and hair colours. It's even compatible with quite fair hair as long as it's not red or completely white. As it's typically the case with similar systems, no matter your skin or hair type, you should shave the hair before epilating. And if you have extremely sensitive skin, it’s better to apply some moisturising gel additionally before and after the treatment.
Premium Bundle
Despite the affordable price, the SlkySmooth IPL system comes beautifully packaged with a manual razor, dermaplaner, high-quality protective sunglasses, and even a luxury beauty pouch that proves itself quite handy for storing everything after unboxing. Also, the pack includes a set of well-readable instructions in English.
The included razor features a three-blade system that is quite sharp and will easily last you at least for a few months of regular epilation sessions. Dermaplaner comes with a sufficiently sharp exfoliating blade as well. It'll help you remove the top layers of your skin, making the surface smoother by skimming dead skin cells. You should aim the dermaplaner at a 45-degree angle and drag it slowly across your skin. By doing so, you'll prepare your skin for epilation better and, accordingly, get even greater results.
Depending on the concentration of hair, the SlkySmooth IPL system takes approximately 10-15 minutes for one leg. The device is completely painless and very easy to grip and manoeuvre. So, if you're after a terrific product that is easy to manipulate, this one may hit the sweet spot. With an incredible 999,999-flash lifespan, it's also a thing that can be shared with your family members or friends.

Homkeen 2 Flash Modes
Affordable Yet High Quality
Do you still think that it's impossible to get a decent hair removal IPL device within the £100 range? The Homkeen system is here to prove the opposite. Available for less than £70, it's one of those rare products that offer a bit more than its retail price, and some users even claim that it's a better value than some branded models available on the market today.
The development of this IPL system has involved collaboration with professional engineers and dermatologists, which resulted in exceptional build quality - the Homkeen hair removal device is fitted with high-quality quartz lamps along with an integrated lamp head. And whereas many other IPL epilators have low penetrating power, the wavelength of this one reaches 522-1120 nm. That means the light is perfectly absorbed by the hair follicle rather than dissipates in the epidermis and blood, so you get the better permanent hair removal results.
Another great thing that adds to the efficacy of this device is the extra-long lifespan. The lamps provide up to 500,000 flashes without loss in performance, so you'll never need to buy a replacement cartridge for this system.
Good Adjustability
The device comes in a nice presentation box and, after unpacking, it's surprisingly easy to set up and use. It comes with clear instructions that suggest starting with the lowest intensity to feel comfortable. In total, there are 5 adjustable beam levels and 2 flashing modes. Once you're comfortable with setting 1, you can gradually test other strengths to find the one that suits you the best.
Two flashing modes involve an Auto mode (sliding) and a Manual mode (flashing). The latter is for small body areas such as armpits, face, fingers, and bikini line, while the Auto is for larger body areas. The device has a generous battery life and allows users to treat big and small areas on one full charge.
To prevent laser leakage, the device will emit light only when the working head is pressed at a 90° angle to the skin. At the same time, an industry-leading skin tone sensor will continuously scan your skin and adapt the light intensity according to your tone.
On average, most users notice 80% hair loss after just 3 treatments. Hair becomes much thinner and grows back at a slower rate. And after8 weeks of use, you can achieve permanent hair loss. Affordable and effective, the Homkeen IPL Hair Removal System is a good device to fit your hair-removing needs of all body areas. A real bargain for those who don't hunt for big names.
