Braun Silk-épil Epilator

Braun’s best selling epilator range in the UK last year just got better! The new Braun Silk-épil Xpressive Pro Wet & Dry comes with new Close Grip Technology which lifts, loosens and gently removes hairs as short as a grain of sand (0.5mm). The unique SoftLift Tips can remove even the shortest and flattest of hairs, whilst the 40 winglet tweezers remove more hair in a single stroke than any other epilator.

Plus it can be used in water to provide Braun's gentlest ever epilation! The new-generation epilator gives you smooth, soft and seriously beautiful skin for up to four weeks--giving you confidence that you look and feel your best whenever, wherever you want to.

Independent dermatological research measured the effects among women of wet compared to dry epilation, with findings which showed that the women significantly favoured wet epilation. Nearly two thirds (63%) also found wet epilation was kinder to the skin, making it suitable for those with sensitive skin or those new to epilating.

So what is it about epilating in water that makes it so gentle and subsequently a more relaxing experience? Well, every woman knows that a good soak in a bath can wash away more than just your physical aches and pains; it relaxes you mentally and physically. It therefore makes perfect sense to integrate a long lasting hair removal solution into your beauty regime--as Braun has done. As Dr Kristina from Procter & Gamble beauty explains, "Warm water soothes and relaxes your body and mind, whilst the massaging rollers of the new Xpressive help relax your skin, so hairs are removed as gently as possible."

The Braun Silk-épil Xpressive Pro Wet & Dry is also rechargeable and cordless with a one-way charge system, to keep it completely safe in water. It stays charged for up to 40 minutes which guarantees enough time for users to become fully fuzz-free.

Especially designed for use in warm water--to give you Braun’s gentlest ever epilation

The new Braun Silk-épil Xpressive Pro Wet & Dry comes with new Close Grip Technology which lifts, loosens and gently removes hairs as short as a grain of sand (0.5 mm). The unique SoftLift Tips can remove even the shortest and flattest-lying hairs at the root. The 40 uniquely positioned winglet tweezers remove more hair in a single stroke--regardless of which direction it lies in--than any other epilator.

Braun’s SmartLight Technology reveals even the finest hairs to confirm the closeness of your epilation.   The result? Smooth, soft and seriously beautiful skin--for up to four weeks--giving you the confidence that you look and feel your best whenever, wherever you want to.

Featuring a one-way operating system, the Braun Silk-épil Xpressive Pro Wet & Dry can be used in water to provide Braun's gentlest ever epilation!

Additionally, the comfort setting switch allows users to control the speed of the epilation to fit to their needs, with both “soft” and “fast” settings.

Because the Xpressive Pro Wet & Dry removes only your hair and not your skin (unlike wax), you’ll keep your tan for longer.   Four-way massaging rollers stimulate and relax the skin both before and after hair removal, making the Xpressive Pro suitable for legs and underarms.   Even the most sensitive areas such as the bikini line and face are easy to epilate with the Xpressive Pro. The Xpressive Pro includes a trimmer for shaving, trimming and shaping the bikini area, plus a narrow epilation cap for extra gentleness in sensitive areas.

The new pivoting heads--with a variance of ±15º--adapt to the body’s contours, allowing closer contact with the skin and aiding removal of even the shortest hairs.

For the gentlest possible epilation, Braun recommend preparing the epilation areas with Olay Pre-epilation wipes.

The Braun Silk-épil Xpressive Pro Wet & Dry is also rechargeable and cordless, with a one-way charge system to keep it completely safe in water.   Please note that due to safety reasons, the new Xpressive cannot be used with the cord plugged in.   One hour of charging time provides up to 40 minutes use--twice as long as other rechargeable epilators--guaranteeing enough time for users to become fully fuzz-free.   The Xpressive loses very little of its charge over time, and so is ideal for taking on holiday in the supplied storage pouch.

Naturally, the Xpressive Pro incorporates all the convenient features you’d expect from a Braun shaver—it is a feminine and ergonomic size, designed to easily fit into the user’s grip for extra control and increased efficiency.

The epilator’s sealed body allows users to wash it under the tap after use, while removable heads allow for ultimate hygiene.
