Ulike Air Max in Purple Home IPL Hair Removal Device

I had been looking at getting this device or one of their other models for a while as I deal with black, coarse facial hair that I had to shave daily and that left me with constant five oclock shadow. I'm internally pretty fine with having facial hair as a woman and I love my body hair but I'd rather not have to deal with it, so I like that IPL isn't a totally permanent solution and requires little upkeep over time. Bought mine at best buy after finally being too frustrated. I was nervous because it seemed like so many of the videos and testimonials online were paid/sponsored and wasn't sure if it would work or if Ulike just had a great marketing campaign. Within the first couple of weeks I saw little, if any change to my chin/jaw hair on the lowest setting every three days so I changed to twice a week on the second setting. A week or two after that I saw it was definitely working and now I'm nearly down to monthly touch ups on my face, rarely have to shave except a small patch that's harder to zap due to angle. I also use it on my bikini line and my feet with slower but great success. Its honestly a relief after being so frustrated with my facial hair, I feel like I should have started using it sooner. I don't plan on using this on legs or arms (I'm pretty moderately tattooed anyways) so I'm hoping it will last me a while. I also like that it appears to be dual voltage so I can travel with it if needed. For reference: I have black/dark brown body and facial hair and a light/medium skin tone with high contrast between the two. I never use the glide feature, only manual zaps and I close my eyes in addition to the provided sunglasses. I never use the highest setting and only dry shave both face and body with an eyebrow razor to prevent ingrowns and exfoliate in the shower with a silicone scrub pad. I follow up with rose water on a cotton round. Only rarely does the zapping hurt, like if I'm zapping too quickly or if I didn't shave close enough and it gets a hair. It might not be right for you but it definitely works for me! Love it

It took a little longer than advertised, I would say 1.5 months to notice results and a little over 2 months I am ready to sing my praises from the rooftops. Consistency is key- I used it 2x per week for the first month, weekly for the second month, I may be able to go every two weeks or more at this point. Lower half of legs are completely smooth right now after no shaving for 5 days!!! Armpits have about a 75% reduction in growth. And I went against the reccomendations and have used it *very carefully* on my pubic area with a drastic reduction in growth in areas *down there* where I REALLY didn't want hair growth 😬. I feel pretty! I feel ready to throw on any outfit without a ton of prep work! Worth every penny!
