The little device that will entirely change your life.

I think women's biggest problem, no matter from where they came from, how they look like, is hair removing. Despite having many ways to do so, nothing has worked 100% , for every methods its pro and cons. for example with the traditional ways and waxing, sometimes the pain is unbearable, and if you have sensitive skin, you can break out or suffer from redness and itchiness,  as for shaving it's very inconvenient as hair grows back immediately and seriously no one wants the coarse hair and the ingrown hairs under the skin.The hair removal creams are the worst ever, it literally damages your skin, and can cause skin pigmentation in some cases, Needless to mention the mess and the long time you take to remove the hair using all this methods.

Finally someone heard women's prayers and decided to do something about. Braun has recently another miraculous devices which can be defined better as a fist size skin spa than just an epilation device. The Braun Silk Epil is not new to the scene, but I really love the fact that Braun keeps on updating the Silk Epil functions to make it suitable for the modern life. The new Silk Epil 7 "the skin spa" has many changeable heads, the first is of course the epilator head, that can work on dry and wet, and YES you can definitely use it in the shower, it can removes the tiniest hairs ever, and it also have light to show where are some little hairs hide. the second one which is the new concept is the exfoliator head, that removes all the dead skin, 4 times more gentle than all the chemical scrubs but we the same and even better effect. the other heads are the trimmer, that trims long hair, and the other is the shaver that gives you a very close gentle shave  way better than normal razors, and also works on dry or wet.




Braun has thrown up a very beautiful feminine party and invited me to attend, the party was held on the private villas overlooking the beautiful Red Sea at the Moveinpick hotel in Jeddah, where guests were lectured by dermatologist consultant Dr. Shazia Ali, where she simply explained to us step by step how to use the Braun Silk Epil, answered our endless questions and guided us how to get the perfect skin, afterwards we were entertained  to a delicious lunch, followed by an indulging hand and foot massage, finally followed by a joyful and fun photo session for each guest.



One of the many questions that Dr. Shazia was asked, is why we get red inflamed pimples after epilation, she replied that after the hair has been removed, few days and it's start to grow again under the epidermis  so if the skin above is not so smooth that the hair can penetrate, the pore will get inflamed, making the skin red and itchy, and that what makes the hair grow under the skin and make your skin looks and feels coarse. So Braun acknowledged that fact and worked on developing the exfoliator head, that allows you to get rid of the dead skin, so when the hair regrow, you want suffer at all from the ingrown hair problem. Dr. Shazia said that we can exfoliate up to 2 times a week, the exfoliator head is very gentle yet very effective, it can be used on face as well, hearing that was music to my ears, as I was looking everywhere for the clarisonic face exfoliator, and now I am using the Braun Silk Epil exfoliator on my face, and man it never felt so soft, as it does now.

There were a significant difference, even from the first time.
Dr. Shazia used a model suffering from keratosis pilaris and showed how a person with such  a sever skin medical case, can have a noticeable smooth skin in matter of few months, if used the exfoliator and epilation frequently. Another thing the Dr. highlighted, is a step that most of us forgot " moisturizing". Always moisturize after exfoliating, it's the golden rule, exfoliating without moisturizing makes the skin even drier: it's a very important steps that can be missed.

The Braun Silk Epil is such a fantastic device, it's a revolution in the derma world. I can see all the dermatologist rave about such product, it's fast, convenient  for traveling you can basically throw it inside your handbag and take it with you everywhere.
