When it comes to getting silky smooth skin, we aspire to look and feel like we’ve just walked out of a razor commercial. But, relying on standard razors to achieve such results leaves us far from our goals in reality.

Putting aside the missed patches of hair and accidental cuts on our knees and ankles, any silky soft result we do achieve is only guaranteed to last us a day or two—if we’re lucky.
There is, however, a far more effective and long-term solution worth investing in: IPL laser hair removal.
IPL is safe to use on almost every part of the body and works by directing a concentrated light to the root of the hair follicle to stop it from growing, meaning long-lasting smooth skin.
After all, having to shave our legs every second day for the rest of our lives is a chore we can do without.
It’s also pain-free and doesn’t scar or mark the skin, meaning it’s safe for sensitive skin types.
There are plenty of easy and effective IPL laser hair removal devices you can use in the comfort of your home.
We’ve rounded up the best IPL laser hair removal devices on the market worth your hard-earned cash.
