I wanted to wait until I had used this for a while before giving my opinion. Ive been using it for two months now for facial hair and it definitely works. I had very coarse hair with hyperpigmentation around my chin. Now all the pigmentation is gone and other than the few stubborn hairs the regrowth has almost completely stopped. Consistency is absolutely key! For the thin hair I noticed results in as little as two weeks but it took a month to see results for the coarse hair so be patient. The instructions say to use 3 times a week but I did every other day. !Disclaimer: I was only able to do every other day because it worked for my skin. If you have sensitive skin I would suggest following the instructions. Read more

I did a lot of research before I purchased this IPL a year ago. I’ve shaved, waxed, and finally settled on an epilator for several years. No matter what, I got ingrown hairs. I always had dark coloring in my armpits, so it never looked clear. I user the ULike 3, every two to three days for 3 months in the beginning. The picture shows my leg after I haven’t shaved or used the IPL regularly for 3 months. I have light fuzz and a few places that I missed, but few ingrown hairs. The bonus benefit has been lightening of veins and my armpit skin has lightened significantly. Now I just need to figure out how to treat what I self diagnosed as KP. I have no regrets for this purchase. Highly recommend. Read more

Ended up getting a refund. For me at least it just did not work. I was going to just sell the product, but Ulike reached out and offered a refund. I at first declined but on the second offer I decided to do it. They refunded me the same day I sent it back. You can't ask for better customer service. While the device was a fail for me, ulike is a company that stands behind it's product. If they ever release an actual Laser device I will be a buyer for that as this is solidly built and clearly not just a money grab. My skin type is pale white and my hair is dark brown to black, so it should have worked. But I am a little overweight and a AMAB person, so those both could have been factors. I'm leaving my old review under this for transparency and am bumping the score to 3 stars as even though the device for me is a one star, the company is a 5 star company. -------------(old reviews below)------------------ Had to change my score and decided to place this update at the top. I'm now ~ 2 months in and no change from day one. I have also noticed my hair growth has picked back up. It's like I'm doing nothing at all. I may as well use the flash on my cellphone. Perhaps my skin is too thick, who knows. As stated my skin and hair type are ideal as I'm about as pasty white as you can get and most of my hair is black to a dark brown with only a small handful of white hairs (perhaps 10-15). At this point I intend to sell this and use the money to buy a real laser hair removal device which pumps out vastly more energy. I'm likely to even go in for electrolysis. Sadly I have to say don't buy. ------ --- Just got it today so I'll be updating this review as I go. But after the first treatment it's as expected. I'm pasty white with dark hair, so ideal for IPL. I first tried it on the back of my hand and did not feel a thing after 2 pulses. I then moved to my face, and specifically the upper lip. Now that one I felt. It was a fairly intense heat pulse that while a little uncomfortable was in no way painful. Think of a large fire and the feeling of the radiated heat from that, just in a small area in a quick burst. After use the area had a feeling like you would expect after a sunburn. Though now about an hour later it's mostly gone. I'm waiting a day to see if my skin is ok with it. I simply got tired of daily shaving and the pain if I skipped a day. If this works it will pay for itself after just 5 years of not having to buy razors. Sooner if you count in shaving cream. I found the Sapphire Ice-Cooling System interesting. It's very cold on the skin, so may be a shock on certain parts of the body XD. One second it's like holding an ice cube to the skin the next it's like a fire is lit and then near instantly put out. The device is weighty with an external 24v power brick. It's packed with needlessly fancy boxes and packaging. The external box you toss after opening is magnetically closed. I'd rather them use plain packaging and save some money. Time will tell though. I'll keep this review updated over the next 3-4 months. ---------- Just 3 days in and I can tell this thing is just what I needed. After the first treatment virtually all hair growth on my face has stopped. I generally have to shave daily. Typically by the end of the day my face is already looking a bit dark. I shaved again Tuesday (Sunday was day one) though I really did not need it. Typically I can feel the shaver tearing through hairs and this time I could only feel a few. I just today did the second treatment and plan on not shaving for a few days. Can't wait to see the results. I have also started using it on other areas. So far no bad reactions. I did have one or two pulses that were a little painful but I blame that on hair from untreated areas getting in the way. ----- ----- 1 month in and really no change. I don't see any thinning of hair at all. As far as I can tell it's not killed one root. Hair growth is very slow compared to normal, but is it worth that for $375? I'll give it another month, perhaps two. I'm now thinking laser was the way to go as they are about 3-4x more powerful. Sure they cost more, but if they work. Read more

It has been six weeks since I got the device and was using it religiously every other day. It indeed stays cold at all times and doesn’t hurt at all unless you miss a tiny hair somewhere so shave really thoroughly. It said that after 3 weeks 90% of the hair would be gone, well this is only when I barely started noticing the difference. I always used the power mode on legs. As of today, It’s been 10 days since I did the procedure last time on my legs and visually my legs are bold, but I can barely still feel some hairs on it which is fine. I did not expect 100% silky skin considering that I used to see and feel hoarse hair literally the next day after regular shaving. Great result here! Truly impressed! It also worked on my bikini line, the area that worried me the most (I’d always get immediate bad irritation after every time I shaved) however the pubic area doesn’t seem like worked at all. I also always used the power mode here. I expected to have just a couple of hairs left here and there like on my legs. Instead, I got only a couple of hairs missing when the whole situation stayed the same after six weeks, so no changes on my pubic area. I’m very happy that at least the bikini line doesn’t look irritated after shaving no more and hair noticeably slowed down growing and its quantity reduced so I’m grateful for that. My armpits also don’t seem like working. This is the only area that I used the body mode on since I was feeling the warm sensation when the pulse hit so I was afraid of going power mode over there. Even though the quantity of hair slightly reduced, it still grows back with the same speed. Also it said that you can do the whole body in about 15 minutes. Well only my armpits and bikini area were taking 10-15 minutes. Legs were taking me at least 45 mins and I mean just lower legs or just thighs. So if I were to do full legs it’d take me good an hour and a half. And meanwhile the device itself would get really hot (not the flash window tho, it’d still stay cold) so I’d have to put it away and let cool down for another 30 mins. So I chose to use the device on my lower legs and bikini in one procedure on one day and thighs and armpits procedure the next day. Each that procedure was taking me about an hour. So basically I was using the device every single day for an hour for the first entire month, which is a long time every day to dedicate, but I’m happy with the results on my legs and not very happy with the armpits and public area results. As of week 7 I continue doing my bikini/pubic and armpits every other day and really hope it finally works. I’m wondering how long I can safely use it on my skin every other day, but don’t think I will be exceeding two months of every other day usage. Bottom line: this device clearly works. I’m sure everybody’s complexity is different but this is what I got for $230 and to me the result is worth the price. However, if it still doesn’t work on the pubic area, guess I will have to commit to the salon treatment. Read more

Summary: Pros: The product is absolutely amazing! * Easy to Use * Quick and 99% painless (nothing horrible, see details for more info) * Effective * Very responsive * Easy to set up and hold * Pretty clear instructions and recommendations * Multiple Settings * Pretty Color and a nice box * Great for sensitive skin * Works in nearly ALL areas * Effective against somewhat coarse hair (such as leg hair) Down Sides: * May be somewhat time-consuming for people who may not have set times for skin care and have a busy life. * The light is BRIGHT!! You have to use the glasses provided or something darker, also don't have others in the room without eye protection as it can be seen across the room. * Somewhat noisy but it's not too bad. (A small "quiet" vacuum is about the sound level.) _______________________________________________________________________________________________ Detailed Review: I was on the fence about it, due to several reasons. For one, I have extremely sensitive skin to the point that I have to use specific soaps and products otherwise it breaks out or just tears. My skin is delicate but my hair is somewhat coarse, grows fast, and is stubborn. It was a pricy investment I wasn't sure would work. That being said, I went ahead and got it and I'm so glad I did. I do have a very hectic life and forget simple things often, so setting a schedule to use it has been my only real issue, which is on me not the product. Now, I have used it (so far) on my legs/thighs, somewhat bikini line, hands/wrist area, arms, underarms, and face. (Skip down to results if you don't have sensitive skin or concerns about how your skin will react...and feel lucky <3) ~*~ Products I have used Before ~*~ Just to give a thorough review (as I didn't see this in any other reviews) Previous products I have tried and how my body handled them: * Nair (regular, extra strength, sensitive skin, creams, foams, pretty much every variation) - Effect: Chemical burns even when using less than the recommended time, skin tearing, hair still very much present though a good bit was removed. Due to the chemical burns, I stopped using any of these. * Waxing creams, gels, strips - Effect: Skin tearing and extreme irritation. Sometimes hair was pretty much completely removed but at the cost of removing my skin as well. * Razers and a plethora of shaving creams/gels/ Pinterest and Tiktok recipes (I can't even cover all of them but nearly every Venus line, men's razors, and pretty much anything you can find at Walmart, especially the ones for sensitive skin) - Effects: Skin irritation, some tearing, breakouts, and hair the next day........ ~*~ Finally THIS Product Results ~*~ Again, I have a hectic schedule so I have not been able to use it as recommended, however, the little bit I have used has shown promise. My legs, wrist, and hands have spots or strips that don't grow as fast after 2-4 uses over the span of a month (definitely wayyyy less than recommended for results). I was worried about using it on my face and tried other parts first, so I have only used it on my face twice. This was actually the whole reason I bought it though, as I do not enjoy growing a ton of face hair and being a girl. It's life and natural, but I hate it and it really messes with my self-esteem (which is already pretty low). When using the product, some sensitive spots or spots may still have hair sometimes have a small pinprick sensation for a few seconds. This isn't even that bad, especially since with razors I have about 2 days of burning. I would recommend a non-scented lotion afterwards as your skin can feel a little off. I haven't done a round without the lotion to see if it would get worse. Again, the slight discomfort or off feeling is nowhere near the pain or irritation caused by other products. Overall, I love the product and would recommend it for people with sensitive skin, acne-prone skin, and even coarser hair. Read more

I have used this for 3 months now and I see a reduction in hair and slow hair growth. I really do not notice the hairs on my legs I bought this to use on. I have a combination of dark and blonde hair so I know it won't work on the blonde hairs, but it got my dark hairs. For the underarms and Brazilian, it is hard to tell because I had gone in for those laser treatments which I highly recommend going to a professional and just doing it that way. Its clearly more effective. I think more time will tell if it works. Additionally, I think this helped with my varicose veins. Read more

I started out a bit skeptical on this as I have actually done laser treatments for my legs. It took a lot of treatments and a lot of $$. I followed the instructions for 3 times a week for 1 month and just finished the month. I did the light treatment on my upper lip and arms. The upper lip is great!!! So far after 5 days, no hair. Even if this just slowed the growth and reduced the amount of hair, I am super pleased with this result. I will obviously do more as new growth happens. On the arms, I have a bit of stubble, but the hair is lighter in color and finer. These may be the hairs that the treatment does not work on. Again, pleased with the results so far. The cool tip is great. Although you do not feel the coolness the longer you are using the machine during a session, but you do not feel the heat. Very pleased with this purchase. I went middle of the road on cost and off other customer reviews to make the decision to purchase this. ***One word of caution, on the product page there are suggestions for things like gels to go with the device. The instructions in the device say not to use any product with it.*** Do not waste your money on extra gels etc. Read more
