Rowenta Ep1040

The compact entry-level epilator from Rowenta in a fresh look. Integrated pain relief system in the epilation head: micro-massage balls, ultra-compact and narrow, removable and washable epilation head.

Fashion often means one thing above all: standing out at any cost. The new EP1040 epilator accomplishes this task in a particularly striking manner. The device marketed by Rowenta catches the eye with its bright green casing. The advantage: even if there is chaos in the bathroom or the bathroom cabinet, the epilator is unlikely to be overlooked – and that’s important, as it is very compact and handy in size.

However, Rowenta also adheres to a second fashion rule with its design, which states: the more understated, the better the outfits often turn out. Because, in purely technical terms, the epilator is a very simple device, positively speaking: without much frills. Hair removal is handled by 24 pairs of tweezers, while small micro-balls are responsible for alleviating the dreaded pain, preparing the skin in advance with a gentle massage for what’s to come. The power supply is exclusively via a power cord, which somewhat limits flexibility, and unfortunately, the epilator cannot be used in the bathtub or shower – although many customers report that epilation with the aid of warm water is particularly painless.
