Braun Silk-Epil 7 Epilator Review


 Hello, my beautiful readers, I am back again with a review on something different this time; it is not a foundation, blush or cream but an Epilator. I have been planning to purchase one of the hottest Epilators from Braun, Silk Epil 7 [7681] but darn it is really expensive. So, I decided to dig a little deeper into it and here it is a review from my side, although it is practically not from my end I have collected some videos to convince you guys that I am really going to buy it :-D. To be honest, this epilator looks really promising to me as it comes with five additional accessories. One trimmer head and a shaver head, a precision cap for the sensitive and intricate body parts, another cap to ease down the tweezing pain (the efficiency cap), and finally a facial cap for easy hair removal from upper lip area and chin. The price is on the higher side; it is around $100 in different online stores. Here’s a short video from Braun on this sexy epilator.

The Silk-épil 7 Review


The Braun Silk-Epil 7 comes with a close-grip forty tweezers that ensure painless and smooth epilating experience. The Silk epilator is quite fast compared to numerous other epilators in the market, what makes close-grip epilator an ideal choice is its capability to trim the tiniest of the hair easily. According to Braun, it can handle up to 0.5mm hair length rather easily with its specially designed tweezers.



It has massage rollers to give your skin an extra comfort. When you open up the box, you get an instruction booklet in a lot of different languages with pictures and details. If you want to use the additional caps (efficiency, precision, and facial) that comes with the epilator, it is quite easy to un-pop the top and place the cap you want to use. The whole procedure is pretty simple, also if you want to use the exfoliation brush you just to have to unclip the head with a button on the top and install the exfoliator brush head quickly. During epilating it is good to hold the skin while slowly pulling the epilator from bottom to the top. When epilating for the first time it is better to keep the epilator directly faced down onto your skin in order to remove all the hairs. Something that is really handy also, are the extra comfort massage rollers and the smart-light that help you see hair before removing them.

While exfoliating always remember to not to hold the brush for a long time on the same spot because it would irritate the skin instead what you want to do is to do the exfoliation in a circular motion. The circular motion would gently help to refine the skin leaving it feeling really nice and soft by removing all the dead cells from the skin. If you are a regular exfoliator, make sure to replace the brush every 12 months.

Braun Silk-Epil 7 accessories


One thing I will say that epilating is a lot more time consuming compared to the conventional razor. However, the benefit with that is the results are a lot more long lasting and withstand easily for four weeks that is almost like epilating once a month. It is not really painful but more like plucking your eyebrows for the first time, and you can easily get used to it. Also, it is perfect if you are traveling and cannot shave your legs every week because the results are indeed long lasting. One more thing that I really love about it is that I have read in most of the reviews that it prevents the growth of ingrown hairs which is really fantastic.


Fast Epilation with Close-Grip Technology

Braun Silk Epil 7 7681


Usually, the epilation process takes a while, and it is never a pain-free experience for any lady. Silk-épil 7 with its fast pace can really help in this scenario; the close-grip forty tweezers work their way faster than almost 95% of the epilators in the market. The close-grip can easily pluck tiniest of the hairs within a single session to ensure the smoothest skin you have ever craved for. The high-frequency massage system stimulates the sensitive skin for a pain-free session. I have tried some epilators before, and I know the painful experience and slow progress they show but Braun seems quite intriguing at this point to me.


Superb Addons for a soothing & Pain-Free Experience

Braun Epil 7 extra caps

If you are trying this epilator on underarms or bikini line, make sure to use the ‘precision cap’ to minimize the pain. The battery can easily last up to 40 minutes, but you can speed up the epilation process by using the ‘efficiency cap’ that increases the contact with the skin for a faster tweezing. The ‘facial cap’ can help you tweeze the hair on upper lip and chin area, and the pivoting head makes it really easy too. The shaver head is an ideal choice for the ladies who cannot withstand the tweezing experience, and the trimmer head is good for longer hair. So, it is really up to you ladies you can try the trimmer head first and switch to the tweezers head, or you can shave it directly.  The facial brush works deeper into your skin pores, and it can come in really handy to remove the makeup and other impurities from your face. You can also exfoliate and polish your skin with its adjustable speed.


The Wet & Dry Epilator

Braun Silk épil 7 waterproof epilator


The best thing about Braun Silk-Epil 7 is its ability to function flawlessly in wet and dry conditions. With this cordless epilator, you can enjoy epilating during the shower or in a bathtub. The epilator can work up to 40 minutes in wet and dry conditions easily, and that is actually quite enough for a good tweezing session. I would always prefer tweezing in warm water because it would not only decrease the itchy pain but also transform epilating into an enjoyable soothing experience. Furthermore, you can always switch to the efficiency cap for a quick tweezing session and do both your legs and underarms easily on a single charge.  Even if the complete review is not convincing enough to you, you can always check the pros and cons.

  • The eip-7 only offers cordless operation, and you cannot use it with a cable plugged-in. So you might want to charge it first before starting your tweezing session.
