Summary:Pros:The product is absolutely amazing!* Easy to Use* Quick and 99% painless (nothing horrible, see details for more info)* Effective* Very responsive* Easy to set up and hold* Pretty clear instructions and recommendations* Multiple Settings* Pretty Color and a nice box* Great for sensitive skin* Works in nearly ALL areas* Effective against somewhat coarse hair (such as leg hair)Down Sides:* May be somewhat time-consuming for people who may not have set times for skin care and have a busy life.* The light is BRIGHT!! You have to use the glasses provided or something darker, also don't have others in the room without eye protection as it can be seen across the room.* Somewhat noisy but it's not too bad. (A small "quiet" vacuum is about the sound level.)_______________________________________________________________________________________________Detailed Review:I was on the fence about it, due to several reasons. For one, I have extremely sensitive skin to the point that I have to use specific soaps and products otherwise it breaks out or just tears. My skin is delicate but my hair is somewhat coarse, grows fast, and is stubborn.It was a pricy investment I wasn't sure would work. That being said, I went ahead and got it and I'm so glad I did. I do have a very hectic life and forget simple things often, so setting a schedule to use it has been my only real issue, which is on me not the product.Now, I have used it (so far) on my legs/thighs, somewhat bikini line, hands/wrist area, arms, underarms, and face. (Skip down to results if you don't have sensitive skin or concerns about how your skin will react...and feel lucky <3)~*~ Products I have used Before ~*~Just to give a thorough review (as I didn't see this in any other reviews)Previous products I have tried and how my body handled them:* Nair (regular, extra strength, sensitive skin, creams, foams, pretty much every variation) - Effect: Chemical burns even when using less than the recommended time, skin tearing, hair still very much present though a good bit was removed. Due to the chemical burns, I stopped using any of these.* Waxing creams, gels, strips - Effect: Skin tearing and extreme irritation. Sometimes hair was pretty much completely removed but at the cost of removing my skin as well.* Razers and a plethora of shaving creams/gels/ Pinterest and Tiktok recipes (I can't even cover all of them but nearly every Venus line, men's razors, and pretty much anything you can find at Walmart, especially the ones for sensitive skin) - Effects: Skin irritation, some tearing, breakouts, and hair the next day........~*~ Finally THIS Product Results ~*~Again, I have a hectic schedule so I have not been able to use it as recommended, however, the little bit I have used has shown promise. My legs, wrist, and hands have spots or strips that don't grow as fast after 2-4 uses over the span of a month (definitely wayyyy less than recommended for results).I was worried about using it on my face and tried other parts first, so I have only used it on my face twice. This was actually the whole reason I bought it though, as I do not enjoy growing a ton of face hair and being a girl. It's life and natural, but I hate it and it really messes with my self-esteem (which is already pretty low).When using the product, some sensitive spots or spots may still have hair sometimes have a small pinprick sensation for a few seconds. This isn't even that bad, especially since with razors I have about 2 days of burning. I would recommend a non-scented lotion afterwards as your skin can feel a little off. I haven't done a round without the lotion to see if it would get worse. Again, the slight discomfort or off feeling is nowhere near the pain or irritation caused by other products.Overall, I love the product and would recommend it for people with sensitive skin, acne-prone skin, and even coarser hair.
