Something we can all agree on? Unwanted body hair is frustrating. Sure, you can wax and shave regularly, but who has the time? That's why some people turn to intense pulse light (IPL) hair removal. This technology zaps unwanted hairs permanently, saving you a ton of time, money and aggravation. About that "money" part, though: If you have this procedure done in a salon, it's gonna cost you. Here's a thriftier option: The popular XSoul At-Home IPL Hair Removal Device is down to just $70 with the on-page coupon — that's over 40% off — perfect for shorts and bathing suit weather.
Tank-top season will be here before we know it, and this one comes in so many colors and prints, you'd be wise to stock up while it's down to just $20. The drape-y fit keeps things comfy and breathable, and you could easily dress this top up or down. Get it in sizes S–3XL.
Say cheese! These easy-to-use teeth whiteners start working in just one hour, and according to the brand, they can get your teeth up to 12 levels whiter in as few as 10 days. To use, just apply the strips to your teeth and let them sit for an hour before removing. You'll get 20 strips to a pack — 10 upper and 10 lower.
For those days when you "knead" a little R&R, it's this small yet mighty massaging machine to the rescue. Equipped with seven speeds and 10 interchangeable heads for targeting different areas of your body, the Toloco can help you loosen up those kinks at home — and at just over 2 pounds, it's extremely travel-friendly.
Is it time to break up with your razor? This hair-removal device can help.
An average IPL session costs anywhere from $700 to over $1,000, depending on where you live and whether you can use insurance. That's not chump change, especially when it's not a one-and-done thing. So a top-rated at-home device for less than 100 bucks that you can keep on using? No-brainer.
The hair remover uses professional-grade IPL technology to zap hair and break the cycle of regrowth. Use it on your legs, your armpits ... any place, really. Flip between five power levels (start at level one and work your way up) to get the removal oomph you're after. The XSoul is also easy to grip — your hand won't cramp up while you get down to business.
You can choose between a continuously flashing auto mode for spots like your bikini line, upper lip, chin, face and armpits, or a single-flash manual mode for more sparsely hairy areas like your back, chest, stomach, arms and legs. According to the brand, hairs then "naturally fall out" in anywhere from a few days to two weeks.
The XSoul At-Home IPL Hair Removal Device has more than 7,000 five-star fans who rave about how well it works.
"Money well spent!" said one enthusiastic fan. "This is by far the best product I have used. ... I noticed an immediate [decrease] in growth of my hair. As a woman, having hair on my chin is horrible and very hard to maintain. I did not have the regular whiskers — I had the thick, dark hair that has gotten worse since my second child. I'm so happy to have found this product and feel a whole lot more confident about myself."
A fellow happy customer called this tool "a godsend," adding, "I have only used it three times so far and have no growth on my legs and a little growth on my armpits and bikini area. ... Honestly, it's already paid for itself after only three uses."
"I have been using this on my wife's legs," reported an attentive spouse. "First off, you don't see results until four weeks into the treatment. And my wife's leg hair is pretty thick and it grows back daily. By four weeks, my wife's leg hair took two to three days to grow back, and during those days it was baby-butt smooth ..." The reviewer later wrote an update: "We have been using this for a few months to a year now. It's been awesome. ... Anyway, my wife has stopped growing hair almost completely."
Depending on how much skin you want to cover, your at-home IPL session might not be super-quick. "Actually works! But time-consuming," said this reviewer. "The one downside is it takes a while to do everything — for me, it was 45 to 50 minutes for lower legs, armpits and bikini line."
Other shoppers caution that the shades are necessary since the light is very bright. "The flash IS very bright," revealed this user. "You'll want to wear the glasses it comes with and probably close your eyes while the flash goes off."
Echoed another: "For those who say the light is bright, it's true; I would close my eyes and at the same time cover my shades with my hand."
