Facial epilator

Facial hair bothers not only men, but also women - every third woman aged 25 years and older faces a similar problem. Thin, but such noticeable hairs are especially often treacherously seen above the upper lip, less often on the chin or forehead, and the epilator for the face - a compact device for safe face care - can cope with them.

Epilator for the face allows you to further adjust the shape of the eyebrow (as a model "Braun Face") or to epilate the most sensitive areas of the body (bikini and armpits, as a model Tweeze).

A facial epilator is a compact device for removing hair from the follicle and can be electric or mechanical.

A classic epilator for the face is an electric device with a small head and tweezers to grip the hairs and remove them for a period of 2-4 weeks. The ideal "challenger" - "Braun Face", the world's first epilator for the face. Alas, the usual machine for working on the face will not work (the exception is a special nozzle for the treatment of the face in the set), because:

• Facial hair is usually short and / or too thin (0.02-0.05 mm). An ordinary head with discs or tweezers simply will not capture them;
• The head itself has an impressive size compared to the area above the upper lip - it simply “does not pass” in size;
• The skin of the face is especially sensitive and will not tolerate the aggressive impact of the epilator tweezers for the body. Special models for the face have a much smaller number of tweezers, and they themselves are much smaller;
• Epilators for the body are too painful (especially 40-pincer models), even with an anesthetic vibrating nozzle for the face, its punches will be too aggressive.

It is known that a classic epilator for facial hair removal is not suitable - it is too bulky for this small area, inconvenient to use and not suitable in general. Special epilator for the face has the following advantages:

• The smaller epilating head allows you to remove hair from any small areas - above the upper lip, chin, above and below the eyebrows;
• It has an elongated shape (like a pen) and is convenient for point use;
• It removes hair with a bulb and ensures smooth skin for 2-4 weeks without stubble (new hairs grow softer and thinner);
• More effective at work than tweezers. In one revolution of the head of the machine, about 100-200 hairs are removed (depending on the model).

Each manufacturer defines its mandatory set, for example, brand Braun Offers a whole arsenal of accessories to the epilator for the face - a brush to clean pores and make-up remover.

The epilator for the face has several drawbacks, which are also worth mentioning:

• "Gives" pain, like any other method of hair removal. Recall that the essence of the process lies in the artificial hair removal together with the bulb and the violation of the follicle texture in order for the new hairs to thin and softer;
• Causes irritation. It depends on the individual characteristics of the skin. In any case, epilation should be carried out in the evening, so that during the night the skin can recover and the irritation subsides;
• May cause ingrown hair. The reason for their formation is skin features, improper preparation and carrying out of the procedure, or inadequate care of the epidermis after;
• A small selection of models.

Want to get an effective and reliable female hair removal epilator - choose electric. If the price of these models bites, the only way out is to buy a mechanical analog “spring”.

The choice of epilators for the face is now very small, to be precise, there is one decent product on the market - "Braun Face" and one chinese - Tweeze. The manufacturer of the latter says that his epilator can be used for both face and body, and the price of the device allows you to try this know-how on yourself.

Want to get a full face care, choose "Braun Face" with additional brush nozzle for pore cleansing and make-up remover. If body care is important and you want to “kill two birds with one stone” at once, stop focusing on a classic epilator for the body with a face-restraint for the face (as in Braun Silk-epil 9-558 Wet & Dry, SE 7931, Philips SC2006).

The world's first epilator for the face, created by the legendary German brand. It is especially famous for epilators for the body and hair styling / hair styling and beauty devices in general.

Epilator for face from Braun 2 in 1 - it is a painless and effective hair removal and additional skin care - pore cleansing and makeup removal. The included brushes and a removable nozzle for them provide high-quality deep or gentle cleansing of the pores and the best performance of the care products - cream, serum, and even regular tonic. It is known that cosmetic products are better absorbed into the previously cleaned surface of the dermis without the "dead" layer of cells and with ajar pores.

Mechanical (manual) epilator is a compact mechanism, a pair of springs on the handle. The essence of his work - holding these springs in the hairs against the growth of the latter. Not only is this a laborious process, it is also painful, leading to redness and irritation of the skin. Manual epilator De. Co It does not remove the hair pointwise, as the first analogue, but it has an undoubted advantage - a low price in the region of 200 rubles.

It is an electric device with a fixed head and tweezers method of operation. The device has a narrow head and tweezers closely spaced to each other for high-quality capture of short and thin hair. It is effective in its work and is inexpensive - about 400 rubles, leaves no trace of hair removal. They can remove facial hair and use for the body - Tweeze copes with the bikini and armpits, but they will have to depile their legs for a long time.

The electric epilator for the face is easy to use:

1. Pre-clean the skin - wash your usual skin or gel to cleanse and open the pores.It is advisable to epilate after taking a bath or shower, when the pores are steamed and ready to “give” the hairs;
2. It is advisable to use a scrub - it will remove the cornified layer of cells and release the hairs, lift them;
3. Blot wet skin with a towel and dry it naturally;
4. Keep the epilator head working against hair growth slowly, bottom-up, do not press the machine;
5. Walk one area 1-2 times against the growth of hairs and no more than 3-4 repetitions, otherwise irritation cannot be avoided;
6. After the process is complete, wipe the skin with a soothing tonic without alcohol, you can use hydrogen peroxide, herbal decoction. It is necessary to apply the liquid with light blotting movements, it is impossible to rub;
7. After applying a moisturizing or soothing cream (with chamomile, aloe, calendula) and use it every time after hair removal.

The cosmetologists recommend to epilate the face in the evening - if it was not immediately possible to avoid irritation, during the night it can pass by itself - it is enough to soothe the skin with tonic and apply a moisturizer. Any anti-burn cream will help to remove severe irritation from the face - "Rescuer", "Panthenol", "Bepanten".

Manual epilator "Spring" It works according to a different principle: attach a spring to the face and move the handle from the bottom up or against the hair growth. "Spring" copes well with downy hair above the eyebrows or upper lip, but adjusting the shape of the eyebrows is rather unpredictable.

Each model of the epilator for the face has its pros and cons. Modern women prefer a special model from Braun - convenient, compact and expensive. Among its advantages, consumers note efficiency - the hair is removed along with the bulb, practically painless and easy to use on the most sensitive areas of the face - above the upper lip and under the eyebrows. By the way, the model from Braun perfectly corrects the shape of the eyebrow and removes the downy hairs so quickly and almost imperceptibly.

If we talk about electrical models, it should be noted more budgetary analogues like Tweeze - compact epilator with a small tweezer head. It is inexpensive and copes well with facial hair, but it is difficult to find real reviews about the model.

There are also a lot of reviews about mechanical springs - they are suitable for combating invisible downy hair and are inexpensive, despite their primitiveness, they do an excellent job with hairs and give smooth skin for 2-4 weeks. Of the shortcomings of the mechanical spring-type epilator, women note the impossibility of adjusting the shape of the eyebrows - the spring does not act pointwise, but “cuts” all the hairs.

Which epilator is better for women is impossible to say. One thing is clear that the most effective in the work - electrical, available - mechanical. If the facial hair does not bother so much, a mechanical epilator or ordinary tweezers will be enough. If the hair over the upper lip or chin is a real problem, you cannot do without an electric epilator.
