Boots has reduced the price of the Braun Silk-épil 9 Flex Epilator by £160, now available for £139.99 down from £299.99. The device, which boasts a 4.7-star review rating, promises salon-like results and smooth legs for weeks, making it a popular choice for those seeking low-maintenance hair removal during the summer heatwave.
Key Features and Savings
The Braun Silk-épil 9 Flex Epilator features a fully flexible head that adapts to body contours, capturing even the finest hairs (0.5mm) with 40 MicroGrip tweezers. It can be used wet or dry and includes a shaver head and trimmer comb. According to Boots, the epilator offers up to one month of smooth skin and is designed for sensitive areas with adjustable pressure modes.
One five-star reviewer commented: "Great product. Lightweight and simple and straightforward to use. I tried the shaver and the epilator. It’s a little painful but it’s the same with anyone for the first few times. Worked well, left my legs smooth, a little red after, but it soon went." Another shopper noted: "Had a very old epilator and it was OK and struggled to justify the price but got half price on an offer. WOW, legs are as smooth as using a razor which I didn't think possible. Would definitely recommend."
Customer Reviews and Alternatives
While many reviews praise the device, one user cautioned: "The device itself is incredible, it’s just not for me. The epilator comes with two heads, the epilator itself as well as a shaver. They are both highly effective at removing hair, however I did find the epilator itself to be painful at first and caused my skin to become slightly irritated." Another five-star reviewer added: "This is by far the best epilator that I have purchased over the years (and I have bought about five)."
For those considering alternatives, Boots also offers the PEACH 2 go Advanced Travel-Friendly Hair Reduction IPL Device at £269, which uses intense pulsed light to disrupt hair regrowth. On Amazon, the Beuris IPL Laser Hair Removal Device is available for £109 with a 4.4 rating. One shopper said: "After using this quite consistently, I’ve noticed a big difference. My hair is growing back slower and in some areas barely at all."
Availability and Purchase
The Braun Silk-épil 9 Flex Epilator is available for purchase at Boots while stocks last. Replacement heads for the device can be bought for under £25. The deal is particularly timely as temperatures rise and shoppers seek effortless grooming solutions.
