Our verdict

A corded epilator for a first-timer who wants shaver and trimmer heads in the same box. The body is not water resistant, so it cannot go into the shower or bath.

Overview

Epilating with the Braun Silk-épil pulls hairs out at the root through a tweezer system, while massage rollers stimulate the skin around the head. A Smartlight shows fine hairs, and swappable shaver and trimmer heads cover sensitive spots.

Removal at the root is why people move from razors to an epilator, and this one adds shaver and trimmer heads so one handle covers legs, knees and underarms. The cord removes recharging worries but ties you to an outlet, and wet use is out.

Who it's for

Suited to someone starting epilation on legs, knees and underarms who can work near an outlet. People who want a wet-use device should look elsewhere.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Shaver and trimmer heads included
  • Smartlight shows fine hairs
  • Massage rollers ease the pulling
  • Corded, so no mid-session recharge
Cons
  • Not water resistant, no shower use
  • Tethered to an outlet while in use
  • Rollers reduce pain but do not remove it
  • Speed settings not listed

Performance notes

Results depend on how many tweezers grip hairs per stroke and how slowly the head moves across the skin. The massage rollers stimulate the skin as hairs are pulled, and Smartlight helps spot short fine hairs that would otherwise be missed.
