What customers are saying

The epilator provides effective and long-lasting hair removal on the legs, armpits, and bikini area, leaving the skin smooth for weeks. While initial use may be painful, the discomfort decreases with repeated use as the skin becomes accustomed. The epilator is praised for its durability, with some customers using the same model for over 20 years. However, the short power cord and need for a plug adapter can be inconvenient in certain locations.

    Gets the job well done

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Braun Silk leg and body epilator with very useful 2 attachment. I like the epilator head it works as designed slightly hurts that's what it does.but the trimmer and shaver head attachment are amazing so smooth and worth calling it as Silk .I use it many times a week and it so easy and very handy design. Overall I love the epilator set it's my current favorite that's a part of my hygiene routine

    Great epilator

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - November 21, 2025

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don’t usually write reviews but I have to for this one! This was the first epilator I’ve ever bought and I’m pretty happy with it. The pain is not even near what I thought it’d be, I guess I’m already used to plucking hair. Of course it’s not the greatest feeling in the world but it’s doable (at least on the legs and bikini line). I only used it once and even though I didn’t read the instructions it worked very well!

    Works fabulous!!

    Reviewed by - May 15, 2019

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ok so I have a love hate relationship with this Braun Silk epil 3. It does pinch ( not hurt!!) when using. However, that is how I know that it actually works! I have used the original epilater and wow was it painful. I was a little scared about how this one would feel. I will say that Braun considered that so this device comes with 3 extra accessories to allow you to choose. When I first used this I did make sure that my legs had not been shaven for a couple days. The first time using it did take time, it took me about an hour. To see the maximum results keep using this once a day for a least about a week. After that week you will notice a huge difference. You will have much less hair since this device pulls from the roots. I love that the device is small and compact which makes it convenient for traveling and storage. If you are new to using this device it comes with easy to read, easy to follow instructions along with pictures. I highly, highly recommend this!

    Never miss a hair again !!!!

    Reviewed by - May 13, 2019

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Braun Silk-epil 3 - 3270 Leg and Body Epilator is the easy way for smooth skin for weeks . It has 2 speed settings to let you choose what's best for your indvidual skin type and personal beauty routine. Personally i like the 2nd setting as it take less time for me and i can tolerate some discomfort too. If you are new to epilating you will feel some discomfort if you are using it for the first time. The pain decreases as your body gets use to it. It has a trimmer,smart light feature too so you don't need to worry about hair size or missing any hair which was my complain with other epilators. It comes with massage rollers which roll immediately in front and behind the tweezers to soothe your skin. Bottom line is as you get more used to epilating and your hairs grow back finer, you will probably notice that you feel less and less discomfort. I love it as it will keep my skin clean and i don't have to deal with the mess of waxing and will save me tons of money too. I love it !!!!

    Perfect for Sensitive Skin

    Reviewed by - May 18, 2019

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always had very sensitive skin and shaving with a regular razor almost always created rashes and skin irritation for a few days following. I tried the electric razor attachment of the Braun Silk on my arms and it was so quick and easy! I didn't have any skin irritation and my arms look great. I used the epilator on my legs. I have to admit, I was a little nervous it would be painful. I was pleasantly surprised! The pain was minimal and the results lasted much longer than shaving! More importantly, I did not experience any skin irritation during or after. I am so excited to have smooth legs for the summer that isn't accompanied by a rash!

    What a surprise - it really works!

    Reviewed by - May 21, 2019

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Gone are the days of that clunky and scary old epilator you found in your mother's vanity...the Braun Silk-epil is handy, pretty painless, and super effective! It's nicely packed in sturdy, protective packaging - and it's ready to use right away! In the past, I've used rechargeable epilators and electric shavers, which often require a long charging time with minimal usage time. Having the cord just makes things easier and more consistent - ever used an epilator with a dying battery? It's torture! I have used this item to both epilate and shave, using the two included heads. The epilator's performance left me shocked, as it wasn't painful at all (seriously, it was like tiny, tiny pinches and not as painful as a regular tweeze!). I really wasn't expecting the lack of pain! Using the epilator was also quite addicting, and I quickly did my entire thigh in just a few minutes. The light is probably my favorite feature - it definitely helps those with poor lighting and/or bad eyes! There are two speeds, but I recommend the high one, as you don't feel the tweeze as much. The razor head has a foil area as well as a shaving strip blade thing. It provides a close (but not super close) shave and was perfect to use at the bikini line. No complaints at all - just make sure to use the high setting for the razor. Overall, I'd recommend this product in place of pricey waxing (I used to go to a high-end salon and paid a LOT of money for extended Brazilian waxes). You really can't beat the value and efficiency!

    No more hairy legs hiding.

    Reviewed by - June 1, 2019

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been a braun user from years , the brand has earned my trust by its quality and efficiency. Some of my kitchen appliances are braun too, therefore i was excited to try this epilator and shaver. My legs are extreme hairy so it does requires to go over the same area a couple of times to get a complete shave but it does it job nicely. Its easy , hassle free and takes only a slight pain. I have sensitive skin to razors but with this epilator i didnt get any burns or irriation. I was amazed with the result, left my legs and hand smooth without any ingrown hairs. I love its 2 speed setting that let you shave and massage however you want. Definitely worth it.

    smooth result!!

    Reviewed by - May 12, 2019

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Compare to the other products it really works It pulls the hair from the root, without breaking it The length of the hair can be just a couple days growth (pretty tiny, compared to length needed for waxing). The light is a nice feature to help you see the area you're working on Cheaper than waxing/sugaring. I used to shave them every other day but since I applied two weeks ago I've seen no hair growth and no hair shadow. Way more convenient than waxing, too, because you can target individual shorter hairs as they grow in rather than waiting for everything to grow back a certain length. I have used other Braun products too and i was aware before using it just i love it. I would definitely recommend to my friends must give it a try its really effective give a sexy look!!

    Long Lasting Hair Removal

    Reviewed by - May 17, 2019

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Braun Silk-epil3 makes it easy and painless to remove unwanted hair. With regular shavers, I was constantly missing fine hairs and would have to shave more than once. With the Braun shaver, I can get the desired effect immediately. The light feature makes it easy to see the fine hairs that often went unnoticed with other products. And the smoothness lasts so much longer too- no more having to shave on a weekly basis. Also love the shape- very easy to handle and maneuver. Double thumbs up- very pleased!!!
