Review (5/5): it gets the job done
[[VIDEOID:893eee6bee23cc23720b77cdf074a83b]]So here's the thing. We know how unsightly those eyebrows can be when they just grow out right? How sometimes, when a special occasion or a sudden “date” comes up and we get all baffled preparing then on the last minute, we see ourselves in the mirror and realize... WOAH! Eyebrow alert!
I can say this because this is exactly what happens to me most of the time. Which is why i find the eyebrow shaver so handy. (see, even with beauty stuff, we need an emergency kit.)
So here's all you need to know about the eyebrow shaver, let me summarize it to save you precious time.
It comes with a cover. Of course, it is a blade. We don't want you grabbing it at the blade end now do we? So yeah. I like how the place a cover for it. Sharpness-wise i would say, from 1-10 ,1 being dull and 10 being exacto knife sharp, it would be at 6.5/10. Believe me, that's all you need for your eyebrows. Anything higher than that can put you at risk for cutting yourself. So with regards to the sharpness, i say it's a-O.K.
With regards to the shaving process, again, like any device. It would always depend on the one using it, your technique, angulation, and amount of stretch to the skin while shaving. So to be safe, do research on how to properly shave. I am not going to force you to try what i do, but for me it works. What i do is i lift my eyebrows up, and sometimes i would even use my finger to stretch it higher.that way i am closer to the base of the hair. Then i angle the blade from 0-5° in reference to my skin. And for my techique, i see that shaving it against the direction of hair growth is easier for me (as compared if you use a razor to shave your legs. Yes it is a must to shave in the same direction as your hair growth)
Though for the top part of my eyebrow (near forehead, not the eyelid area) the are times when i do go with the same direction.
Again. It depends on what is SAFE for you. I suggest try practicing with the hair near your knuckles or even on your legs. For safety purposes of course. AND do NOT remove the hair as if you are using a knife. Please. You will hurt your self. We don't want that. So use with caution.
For the metal threader. Well. Let me start by saying that this item is only for the brave ones. Its very flexible that it can contour to your shape.
This was the first time I've ever use this. And wow. Oh wow. It is really for the brave ones. Okay so of course, the beauty of this is that even the smallest and finest hair will be picked up. You can even actually see the hair that it pulls out. Though again. Remember. One of the most sensitive part of our body is the lips area due to nerve receptors and endings there. Which is why yes, it can hurt. I would say from 1-10, 10 being the most painful, it would be at 6/10 for me. Though it's temporary. Right after pulling the hair the pain stops too. (Well at least for me). So if you want your upperlip to be kissably smooth, this is something you can consider trying.
So overall. The product is awesome! And it really works. Though remember. You control the item. It all depends on how you use it.
So i hope i was able to help you make a clearer decision to see if this is for you.
Stay awesome!

P.S.
For the threader, right after it can make your upper lip area red. So know when to time your session :) (i was not brave enough to totally clean my whole upper lip area hahahaha!so forgive my photo okay?)
