    This is a cute little razor. Was used one time for peach fuzz and chin hairs. Worked well on peach fuzz but felt made chin hairs worse when they grew back (seen the very next day). Doesn't pull hair out, only shaves it. This device will probably be used again for peach fuzz but not chin hair because it really seems more grew in after using on chin.

    Fast Face Fuzz Fixer

    Used by my wife. Reviewed by both of us. Written and posted by me. If you have unwanted face fuzz, the Philips 5000 does a great job removing it. My husband thinks I’m a bit OCD about removing facial hair. Most, he says, he can’t even see unless he’s up close with a light. But I can feel them and know they are there, in my chin area. And, I’ve always had some light lady sideburns even though I’m a redhead. This is the device I’ve been looking for. He / we have reviewed a couple of trimmers over the years and they both have shaver heads and they do a good job shaving. But not as good for fine face hair as the Philips 5000. My 89 year old mother even gave it a try and liked it. It’s easy to handle and use, and not too noisy. There are 8 small self sharpening blades rotating in the head and making metal to metal contact. So, it’s going to make some noise. But it’s no louder than the aforementioned trimmers. It has a built-in light around the head and a flat area so it won’t roll away when sitting on its side. The protective cap for the head has a small magnifying mirror on the end of it. It runs on one AA battery. To install, you twist and remove the tapered end cap. Drop in a battery, reinstall the cap and twist until you feel the first indented stop and the dots line up. To turn on, twist the cap farther until it turns on and the cap locks into the second indent. After use, twist the cutting head cap until it comes off. It’s very easy to remove and replace. Use the brush to clean the cutting head. Preferably over a trash can. Philips says the blades (8) are self sharpening. I rinse the cutting head while I have it off with hot water every few uses because I have oily skin and prone to breakouts. I just pat it dry and put it back on after I’m sure it’s dry. It feels well made and comes with a battery and cleaning brush. Recommended

    I recently had the pleasure of trying out the Philips Series 5000 Facial Hair Remover, and I must say that it has truly changed my skincare routine for the better. This little device offers an unparalleled level of convenience and, thanks to its integrated light, makes it a breeze to remove those pesky, hard-to-see facial hairs. One of the standout features of the Philips Series 5000 Facial Hair Remover is its remarkable convenience. Unlike traditional hair removal methods, this device is compact, portable, and doesn't require any messy creams or painful waxing. You can use it anytime, anywhere, whether you're at home or on the go. Its ergonomic design fits comfortably in your hand, making it easy to maneuver around your face, leaving you with soft, smooth skin in no time. I usually breakout with waxing and this leaves my skin pretty smooth with no breakouts at all. The integrated light is an absolute game-changer. This feature is particularly useful for finding those fine hairs that are often invisible in regular lighting conditions. The light illuminates even the finest facial hair, allowing you to target them precisely. Why are there some hairs you can only see in your car mirror? This means no more squinting in the mirror or using a magnifying glass to ensure you haven't missed any stray hairs. With the Philips Series 5000, you'll achieve a thorough and flawless hair removal experience. The precision of this facial hair remover is truly impressive. It features a high-quality rotating head t Maintenance is a breeze too. The Philips Series 5000 comes with a detachable head that can be easily cleaned and reused, ensuring long-lasting performance and value for your money. In summary, the Philips Series 5000 Facial Hair Remover is a revolutionary tool that has simplified and improved the process of removing facial hair. Its unmatched convenience, ergonomic design, and integrated light to help you find those elusive hairs set it apart from the competition. Say goodbye to the hassle of waxing or threading and hello to smooth, radiant skin with this fantastic device. I can't recommend it enough; it's a must-have for any woman looking for a hassle-free and efficient way to maintain their facial grooming routine.

    Great compact shaver

    The Philips 5000 compact facial shaver comes ready with all you need in the box. The shaver runs on an included AA battery. The shaver comes with a cover for the shaver head that snaps on and off and protects the blade. There is a tiny mirror in the cap that will allow you to see the results of your ‘shave’. The razor is small and will fit in a purse or car glove box easily for portability. The shaver is quiet and works very well. The cut you get is very close to the skin without worrying about cutting your skin or razor burn. Love how this works and that I can carry it with me. There is an included small brush to clean the razor head when it becomes clogged. The only thing I would like to have seen, was a way to attach the brush to the shaver so I don’t have to keep up with it separately. However, since this is not used every time the shaver is used it is not a deal breaker. Overall, works great and would recommend to friends. Thank you Philips for adding a shaver for the occasional touch up.

    Best facial hair remover gadget in years

    Okay, I admit I’m a hairy girl. I’ve tried all the gadgets. I’m picky in fact, and think most hair removal gadgets are a gimmick. This little epilator is worth its weight in gold. Seriously ladies, just buy it. I still pluck daily, but this epilator works great around my mouth, chin and even on my sideburn area. I’m considering purchasing a second one in case they stop making this. I rarely take my large size epilator out any more. This inexpensive, compact gadget does it all.

    My girlfriend takes pride in self-care, but her busy schedule sometimes interrupts her routine. This product compliments her skin care regimen well and allows for more frequent maintenance on her face. She said it works well, is easy to use, comfortable when using, and gives a smooth result.

    I’m surprised that I spent the money to buy this but I’m sure glad that I did! The peach fuzz around my mouth and chin are now gone! No more trying to pull a dark coarse whisker from my chin with a tweezer then getting an ugly sore!
