Overview

A bathroom counter near an outlet is where this corded IPL device works, flashing gentle light pulses that hair roots absorb so follicles enter a resting phase and hair sheds. Swappable heads cover body, face and intimate areas, and a skin sensor suggests the light setting.

SenseIQ sensing and contact sensors make it easier to choose a comfortable setting and remove the need for goggles. Being corded means uninterrupted full power but limits where it can be used. Lasting smoothness comes from a schedule, so it suits people willing to treat on a fixed routine.

Who it's for

Women treating legs, bikini line, body and face at home on a fixed schedule get a guided plan through the companion app. People unwilling to stay near an outlet or keep a monthly routine will find it frustrating.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • IPL with skin tone sensing
  • Flashes only on full skin contact
  • Separate heads for body, face, intimate
  • No goggles needed
Cons
  • Corded, needs an outlet nearby
  • Supported skin tones not listed
  • Results need ongoing monthly touch-ups
  • Face attachment is flat, not curved

Performance notes

Light is absorbed by the hair roots, so the SmartPulse balance of light power, color and pulse duration governs how strongly follicles are pushed into rest. The SmartSkin sensor reads skin tone and suggests a setting, and contact sensors block flashes unless the window touches the skin fully. Sticking to the biweekly start and monthly touch-ups decides how long results last.
