Braun Silk-epil 5185 Epilator Pink

Young Beauty - The Gentle Way to Remove Hair and Enjoy Silky Smooth Skin for Up to 4 Weeks

Have smooth skin whenever you want. In your own bathroom, this easy-to-use epilator gently removes even very short hair at the root.  No wait, no mess.  And, since hair grows back finer and thinner, it puts an end to stubble.  To ensure that you get a gentle epilation experience, the system has a unique dual Comfort System, which includes massage rollers and a cooling ice glove.  So all you feel is beautiful.

Product Highlights

• Comfort System: Massage & Cooling
  The Silk épil 5 features high-frequency massaging rollers that actively stimulate your skin for extra-gentle epilation.  The cooling glove cools and prepares your skin before epilation and soothes it after.
• Close-Grip Technology
  Braun's technological breakthrough makes epilating more efficient than ever before.  The 40 tweezers have been engineered to close at the optimal angle and grip hair even closer to the skin for better removal of even the shortest hairs (0.5mm).
• High-Frequency Massage
  The high-frequency massage system stimulates the skin and effectively soothes the plucking sensation during epilation to maximize your skin comfort.
• Pivoting Head
  The Silk épil 5 features a flexible head that can pivot up to 15 degrees forward and backward.  This allows it to better adapt to the contours of the body for greater comfort and maximum thoroughness.  It also ensures that optimum usage position is maintained throughout epilation.
• The SoftLift® Tips
  The SoftLift® Tips effectively lift even flat-lying hairs and help guide them to the tweezers for removal.
• Smartlight®
  The Smartlight® lights up even the finest hairs so you don't miss any.
• Speed Personalization
  Select the right speed for your individual needs:  Speed 1 for extra-gentle epilation, Speed 2 for high-efficiency epilation.

Best Skin Experience:  Extra-Gentle Cooling Glove
The cooling glove effectively cools the skin before and soothes it after epilation to further increase your comfort.

Better Convenience:  Fully Washable
All Silk épil 5 models have a sealed body, which means they can be cleaned under running water for better hygiene.

Attachment Included
The Silk épil 5 5185 Young Beauty also comes with a special pouch, so you can take it anywhere you want and always be ready to show off your beautiful legs.

1.) Turning on:  Press one of the lock keys and turn the switch clockwise to select your preferred speed setting:  «I» = extra gentle or «II» = extra efficient.  The «smartlight» comes on instantly and shines as long as the appliance is switched on.  It reproduces an almost  daylight condition, thus revealing even the finest hair and giving you a better control for improved epilation efficiency.  2.) How to guide the appliance:  Always stretch your skin when epilating.  Always make sure that the epilation area between the massaging rollers is in contact with your skin.  The pivoting caps automatically adapt to the contour of your skin.  Guide the appliance in a slow, continuous movement without pressure against the hair growth, in the direction of the switch.  As hair can grow in different directions, it may also be helpful to guide the appliance in different directions to achieve optimum results.  The pulsating movement of the massaging rollers stimulate and relax the skin for a gentler epilation.  If you are used to the sensation of epilation and prefer a faster way of removing hair, attach the EfficiencyPro cap replacing the massage system.  3.)  Leg epilation:  Epilate your legs from the lower leg in an upward direction.  When epilating behind the knee, keep the leg stretched out straight.  4.) Underarm and bikini line epilation:  For this specific application, the underarm cap has been developed as an optional attachment to be placed on the epilation head.  Please be aware that especially at the beginning, these areas are particularly sensitive to pain.  Therefore, we recommend that you select speed setting «I» for the first few epilation processes.  With repeated usage the pain sensation will diminish.  For more comfort, ensure that the hair is at the optimum length of 2–5 mm.  Before epilating, thoroughly clean the respective area to remove residues (like deodorant).  Then carefully dab dry with a towel.  When epilating the underarm, keep your arm raised up so that the skin is stretched and guide the appliance in different directions.  As skin may be more sensitive directly after epilation, avoid using irritating substances such as deodorants with alcohol.
