For many of us, the promise of glorious weather also brings the hassle of hair removal. Whether you’re shaving, waxing, sugaring, or epilating, one thing’s certain- it’s a chore. Of course, body hair is entirely personal, and whether you choose to remove it is up to you. But if you prefer that silky-smooth feel (without all the fuss), at-home IPL might be just the ticket.
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) and laser hair removal are both methods of long-term hair reduction. IPL uses broad-spectrum light, which tends to be less painful and more affordable than laser treatments. While IPL generally requires more sessions-especially with at-home devices- each session is much quicker compared to traditional laser treatments.
And now for the best part - one of the top-rated IPL devices has just dropped in the Amazon Prime Day sale. The Braun Smart IPL Skin i·Expert At-Home Hair Removal Device is down from £899.99 to just £399.99 - that's a whopping discount of 56%. Needless to say, I didn’t hesitate to hit the check-out button after a quick glance at the glowing reviews - customers consistently praise its ability to quickly and effectively reduce hair growth without pain..
