Ok, so I have bought this epilator to sort out my lady garden and so far I have tried it on my calves and it fucking kills, how the hell do I do it in a sensitive area FGS? Is there a knack to this or do I clean it out and return it to a well known high street store as an unwanted gift!

Are you planning to evil ate the whole garden? If so, good luck! I epliate and wax a lot and I'm not brave enough to do it all.

You can't return it as an unwanted gift if you've used it!!!

I gave up using mine it was so awful. Luckily it has a shaver attachment and works ok as a standard shaver

I've tried epilating my bikini line and it wasn't pretty. Unless you can hold the skin really taut bits can start to get swallowed up in it. I was sailing too close to my labia (tmi alert but it's making me feel sick just thinking of it).

But wrt the pain, it does ime get less and less the more you use it. I'd save it for legs and, at a push, armpits. I have to do my armpits with no top on as my epilator has swallowed bits of clothes it's got near to too.

Oh god, not the whole garden, just the borders! I will try my underarms tomorrow, and work from there, it seems it gets better the more you use it, I may try it on DH as he found it quite amusing watching me on the legs!! See who has a low pain threshold then!
