The Braun Silk-épil 5 ensures silky smooth skin for up to a month at any time. This Braun epilator with MicroGrip tweezers technology captures even the shortest hairs (down to 0.5 mm) that wax cannot. Reduce pain thanks to the massage roller attachment. You no longer have to wait for hair to grow back, as with other hair removal products (e.g. wax). This cordless epilator is convenient to use and eliminates the need for time-consuming cleaning or appointments. Epilate in the bath or shower with warm water to further reduce the pain sensation.

Specifications

Same summary

The Braun Silk-épil 5-030 epilator is designed primarily for users who want long-lasting smooth skin on their legs, arms and more sensitive areas. With 28 tweezers, it allows for effective hair removal from the root, while the massage attachment contributes to a slightly less unpleasant experience, which is especially suitable for those with averagely sensitive skin. Wet and dry operation is a sensible choice for those who want to adapt their care to their habits, such as epilating in the shower or dry. Cordless operation brings convenience, but for longer, intensive treatments it is good to consider the battery life limit. For very thick or coarse hair, the processing speed may be slightly slower due to the number of tweezers.

Answers to frequently asked questions

Is the epilator suitable for sensitive skin?

The model allows wet operation and includes a massage attachment, so it is also suitable for users with more sensitive skin, especially if you epilate in the shower or bath.

How long does cordless operation last on a single charge?

The runtime is average for cordless epilators and is sufficient for one to two full uses; for longer sessions, we recommend constant battery monitoring.

Which areas of the body are best suited to using this epilator?

It is primarily intended for removing hair on the legs, arms, armpits and bikini area; for the face or particularly sensitive areas, we recommend a special facial epilator with a narrower head.

Is using it on wet skin really less painful?

Many users report that epilating on wet skin or in warm water feels smoother, as the steam softens the hairs and relaxes the skin.

Do I need to clean the epilator regularly?

It is recommended to clean the removable parts under running water after each use, as this ensures hygienic use and a longer lifespan of the device.
