Takes a bit of working out technique wise, but the secret is to rotate/or twist the handle bits between finger and thumb as you move up skin.

Make sure you have a 'U' shape too.

I have never bothered about tash area, but the last few yrs, it has been getting more noticeable (early 40's).

I am a bit of a wimp pain wise and it does sting, but i like swearing!

Anyone holding an epistick in one hand and contemplating an eyebrow .... Take it from me, don't do it.

I suffered so you don't have to:

  1. It didn't work properly on the eyebrow.
  2. It hurt like a bastard on the eyebrow.
  3. It was impossible to control on the eyebrow and randomly yanked out all the eyebrow I wanted to keep while carefully leaving behind all the bits I was hoping to remove.


Stick to tweezers or threading for eyebrows but certainly epistick the rest of your face and arms and neck and hands

Definitely hurts! But left my upper lip far less sore than waxing or threading. And cheap and convenient. Bit tricky to get the hang of though, wouldn't have the patience for a large area and agree def not for eyebrows. Ingenious gadget.
