Amazon.com Product Description
These days women are busier than ever! Since shaving is the last thing on your mind, Braun created the Silk-epil X'elle -- a 40-tweezer epilator that provides smooth skin for up to four weeks. Best of all, it is significantly reduces the discomfort that other hair-removal systems are known for.

The Braun Silk-Epil Xelle Body System Epilator offers:
  • 40-tweezer epilator for long lasting smooth skin.
  • Massage rollers to reduce pain.
  • Built-in SmartLight to highlight every hair.


Active Massage rollers reduces pain and discomfort. View larger.
Proven Fast and Painless Hair Removal
Epilation removes hair at root level resulting in smooth skin that lasts for weeks. The X'elle features Active Massage rollers that glide over the skin and gently stimulate it with micro pulsations before and after the hair is removed to reduce any pain or discomfort.

The perfect solution to all-over hair removal, it features a 40-tweezer system that takes away even the tiniest hair and a SmartLight that highlights every hair, so you can't miss those flat-lying strays. For days when you don't feel like epilating, it comes with an additional shaver head with OptiTrim attachment to trim hair and maintain irresistibly smooth skin.

A Smart Design for Easy Control
Braun's Silk-epil X'elle is specially designed to fit comfortably in the palm of your hand. You'll experience easy grip and control for maneuvering the device in sensitive areas. And its efficient Pro Clip feature follows your body curves for fast and thorough epilation wherever its needed -- whether it be the forearms, thighs, bikini area or underarms. Two speeds give you the option of fast or slow epilation. The exclusive X'pert-epil technology has 40 uniquely positioned tweezers, for quick and more efficient results. Regrowth is slow and it leaves hair finer and thinner every time around. With this epilator, you may even save money on disposable razors and waxing.

What's in the Box
Epilator, shaving head, brush, and pouch.

5 out of 5 stars Underarms and chin are smooth!   August 30, 2008
Wow, I've had this for less than a week and I have lovely smooth underarms (ouch, ouch, ouch) for the first time in many years. My legs are pretty smooth, but haven't grown out enough yet, but I can shave my underarms and in two hours have a "five oclock shadow". Allowing two days growth, I tried this last night (it took about three different times) and now, I should be able to go bare for the rest of the season. My legs didn't hurt much, but I don't have the density there that I do under my arms, and the two days growth isn't enough for a leg test yet.

Since the calf area really didn't hurt, I was thinking maybe it was just cutting the hairs, but when you remove the cover, you can see all the little hairs which have been ripped out by the roots! Yucky, but gratifying.

If you've waxed before, you will find this to be a boon. It works on those pesky little chin hairs that crop up after ladies reach 35 or so, and I thought that would be a daily job for the rest of my life!

Take a couple of pain relievers an hour before hand and maybe apply some ice for a few minutes if you are really sensitive. It is a great product and I'll be recommending it to my friends.



5 out of 5 stars Great delivery time and great product   August 29, 2008
Very happy with delivery time and product was greatly improved over previous versions. Definite Buy!


4 out of 5 stars Silk Epi   August 29, 2008
This is a good product. It hurt like crazy the first time. I had to have someone else do it for me. And, for about two weeks my legs looked awful (ingrown hairs, red bumps), but now I use it twice a week and no problems. It has helped me a lot because shaving was hard for my sensitive skin.


4 out of 5 stars ouch, but with great results   August 29, 2008
I know I am not the first to say this but expect pain--real pain. I have a very high tolerance for pain but I still had to do my legs over several sessions. Since the first time the pain is less but I still don't usually finish both legs in one sitting. I have a baby and it just takes too long to do a good job, plus after a few minutes I need a break from the noise, it is a loud little machine! I wish I could use it on just battery power or that it had a longer cord but other than that I highly recommend to those willing to take the pain. Side note, I have used it on my belly and husbands feet neither hurt like the calfs of my legs. Don't expect your legs to feel they way they do after a great razer but reduces appearance of "5 o'clock" shadow which I have on my legs and much less regrowth.


3 out of 5 stars It's not perfect...   August 28, 2008
I wanted to buy an epilator for my legs. I got this after reading all the reviews.

It doesn't hurt much, but it takes a long time to take out the hair. I had to go very slowly over each spot to make sure all the hair is gone. Since I'm Asian, I have relatively thin leg hair. It breaks off my hairs instead of plucking it out. Because of that, the hair grows back in a couple of days. So I don't recommend it for those with relatively thin leg hair. It is also very noisy.
