The beauty industry releases many new beauty products for women every year. The epilator for the intimate area is no exception, because, unlike a razor, it makes the skin really smooth and well-groomed, and also avoids minor cuts and irritation.
Choose an epilator: advantages and disadvantages
Epilator for the intimate area and armpits will help to make the appearance smooth and velvety in the most delicate places. In order for it to serve for a long time, working properly and not leaving ingrown hairs after the procedure, you need to choose the right nozzles, mode and product design. After epilation, the hairs will begin to grow back in three to four weeks and will be softer and more manageable than after shaving. The only drawback of such a procedure is pain, especially for such delicate areas as the bikini and armpits. Getting rid of discomfort is quite simple, just purchase a cooling mitt with a special gel or a device with a built-in cold air nozzle.
How the epilator works
Consists in cleansing the skin fromunwanted hair. The procedure takes place thanks to special rotating discs that grab the hair at the root and, like tweezers, pull it out. Depending on the manufacturer, the number of disks can be from twenty to forty pairs.
In addition, the models differ from each other in speed and number of modes. Beauticians recommend purchasing a women's epilator for the bikini area that works in water, since the hairs are removed easier and faster from steamed, soft skin. However, the price of such products is higher, because they are equipped with a waterproof battery and a protective case. Additional modes and functions are designed to facilitate the epilation process. Built-in illumination allows you to clearly see the problem areas, and hair removal will be better. The peeling function makes the skin well-groomed and tender due to the fact that coarsened areas of the epidermis are carefully removed. In addition, the peeling treatment prevents ingrown hairs.
