Winter is over, and it's officially spring—but most importantly, it's almost summer. Swimsuit season is only twelve weeks away, which is just enough time to get baby-smooth skin with the help of an at-home hair removal device. And during Amazon's Big Spring Sale 2024, running now through March 25, the Ulike Air 3 (my current IPL tool of choice) is a rare $70 off.
The top-rated device typically retails at $329, but you can snap it up for $259 this week only. It uses intense pulsed light to interrupt the hair growth cycle and cause treated areas to grow back thinner and more slowly—and eventually not at all. Though I'm still testing the device, I'm already wowed by the amount of hair reduction I've seen. And what's equally as exciting? The confidence of knowing that by next season I'll be free of bikini bumps and razor burn, all thanks to Ulike's handy tool.
Its built-in sapphire ice-cooling system in particular is what helps distinguish the Air 3 from the other IPL devices I've tried. It feels noticeably cool against my skin even after continuous use on its highest setting, while others became so hot to the touch that I was afraid to keep using them. I haven't felt pain or burning sensations while using it either, which has made me feel way more comfortable treating sensitive areas like my upper lip, armpits, and bikini line.
But, don't just take my word for it: Amazon shoppers are equally obsessed with the customizable device. "I’ve put off buying a laser hair removal device for a long time, but finally bit the bullet and decided on this one, and I'm so happy with my decision," writes one satisfied reviewer. "There is no pain involved. I’m less than halfway through the first [cycle], and my skin is so much smoother and my KP is virtually gone—no bumps and barely any hair growing back. I love the cold feature."
The device also contains three intensity levels and an auto-glide mode that flashes every 0.7 seconds, meaning you can treat your whole body in 20 minutes flat. Ulike recommends starting with three treatments per week for three weeks, followed by treatments every other week for four to eight more weeks and occasional maintenance treatments once you've finished a full cycle. And although the device isn't cordless, it is extremely compact and even comes with a convenient storage box to stash its included cords, mini razor, and foldable protective eyewear between uses.
Keep in mind that like most at-home laser and IPL tools, the Ulike Air 3 isn't suitable for darker skin tones or those with a lighter hair color. They're also not advised for use on tattoos, so you'll need to cover them during treatments or avoid the area entirely. As with any new product, we recommend doing some extra research to ensure this product is right for your needs and hair reduction goals.
