The Best Epilator.

This epilator was selected best by the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute because it removes hair at the root versus the surface of the skin. It was also found to be "the most gentle" by panelists because its 36 hypoallergenic gold-plated tweezers gently, yet effectively, remove unwanted hair from the arms, legs, and sensitive areas, such as the underarms. Unlike lesser models, the epilator "removed the most hair the first time", eliminating the need to make repeated removal attempts. This cordless, rechargeable unit includes a light for illuminating hard-to-see hairs, a cleaning brush, and travel pouch. 4 1/2" L x 2 3/4" W x 1" D. (1 1/4 lbs.)
