Works brilliant – I have darker skin and hence options for me are quite limited. I wasn’t expecting much from this but was happily surprised. All the facial hair I struggled with are gone. Be careful as I burned my arms, legs and underarms badly as the colour on that skin is quite uneven Show details
New user – Easy to use. Flash is concerning to the eyes health. Show details
It doesn't work – It doesn't do anything and they won't take it back either. They will tell you smth along the lines of "Sorry, it just didn't work on you" Save your money and do it professionally. I have spoken with Remington too, and they asked me to go through the store you bought it from. The store said "Tough luck; keep your lemon" Show details
Works for me! Super happy and would buy again – I've had this product since 2017, from Shavershop. I did a little research before buying and purchased it because of the infinity use bulb, and reading good reviews. I am in my late 20s, Indonesian, with tanned skin and black hair and only use it on level 1, once a week. I noticed results after my first and second uses, which really pleased me! I… Read more
have used on under arms, upper lip, chin, arms, legs, even fingers. I stopped using it as I fell pregnant but my chin hairs have never grown back, finger hairs and arm hairs werent growing back with regular use, upper lip hairs didn't (and still) dont grow back for so long, and under arm results are fantastic with regular use. Basically, results overall have been excellent. It definitely works for me. My pain threshold is stupidly low, so even level 1 hurt me, but I got used to it after a while, as the hair roots shrunk and less hair grew back. Really easy to use and I've never burned my skin. Since I never have to replace the bulb, buying this product is saving me from expensive salon appointments and therefore value for money is evident. Would definitely buy again and recommend to others, I just wish it didn't hurt me as much, and I wish I could use it for full brazilian (manual says not to use on private parts).
The worst product I have ever purchased! – The worst product I have ever purchased! It worked four times max, I tried to contact Remington and the Shaver Shop to find out how/where I get it fixed and neither got back to me despite repeated calls and emails (it is now out of warranty). I even tried to replace the cartridge but the fault is definitely with the machine. Dont waste your money - there are much better quality products/brands out there. Show details
No complaints – Have been using it since my Philips Lumea died about 3 years ago. Was a bit expensive though. It works well. No complaints so far. Have to keep using it. Have to be careful with brown skin like mine. I put the settings on 2 lights. Be very careful in sunlight. My hands got very tanned & hot once using 3 lights. I am still thankful Show details
Used once on legs & results already! – I was about to invest $500+ to get my legs lasered at a laser clinic, however I decided to do some research and invest in my own home system. I bought this one while it was on sale... and it’s the best investment! I did one treatment on my legs at Level 3 (mid strength, I was nervous about pain) and 2-3 weeks later I can already see that there’s… Read more
about 50% less hair! It’s patchy because I missed some spots, but it’s made it evident that the areas treated haven’t grown back yet. I have tanned skin with dark hair. Can’t wait to try it at a higher strength and see how the results are after a couple months. Would recommend!
Love this product – I wish i brought this product sooner!! I have dark hair and for myself i could notice less hair after the first session. I was using every two weeks and all hair was gone after the 3 session, pain level was minimal the better the shave prior to use the less little zaps you will get. After stopping it took months for hair to regrow which is finer than original, some still haven't returned. Now i only need to use occasionally now.
Turned hair white! Bigger problems now – Well I'm so disappointed in this product. I purchased from myer, it came with a 90 day money back guarantee but also says results take longer.. it's been 8 months now and because of the requirement to shave before using I'm not dealing with so much more hair. Not only do I now have more thick corse hair most of it has gone white (and still corse) I used this product on the highest setting and followed instructions. Very disappointing
Great customer service – I bought this from Harvey Norman Preston, great price and excellent service. I have used it twice on chin hair and the results are fantastic.The hair has completely gone. I am now using it on upper lip and under arms. It's very easy to use and you do get used to the little zap. I really like this product as it's used at home and much cheaper than… Read more
going to a salon.I am also going to start on my legs. Will post my results after a month. I really recommend this product. The globe in this unit never needs replacing. The older model IPL globes only lasted about 2 years and needed to be replaced. So well worth the money. The model I bought does both face and body.
Useless even after 6 months – Very, very disappointed as I have used this product weekly for over 6 months now and can see no difference in hair growth. I recently went on holidays and resorted to using an epilator as I was not prepared to be seen with the growth on my legs left after using this product. From my point of view a complete waste of money.

Great solution to hair removal – Since using this product I have noticed a huge reduction in hair regrowth with only 5 uses. I look forward to seeing the outcomes from further treatments. It’s an easy to use machine with each treatment taking about an hour to complete, which I find preferable to making appointments for sessions. Usually just watch TV while I complete the… Read more
treatment. Would highly recommend this product to anyone whose has the recommended hair colour and skin tone
Great Product! – This product is great, achieving the same results as clinics. It is simple and easy to use in the comfort of your own home. As it is compact in size it is easy to handle and store. I highly recommend it.

Laser burns!!! – I have had laser hair removal plenty of times in a clinic, so I thought it would be a good idea to invest in a portable machine to use myself. I had it set to the lowest setting and have woken up with burns on me, I'm extremely upset and disappointed as I am now worried I will have permanent scars as a result. If you are thinking about buying… Read more
this product, I would recommend spending the extra money and having it done by a professional. I don't believe this is safe.
Dear Lauren, Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry… Read more
Love it! – Absolutely amazing product! Works exactly like the real deal. I Bought it from the shaver shop for only $289. It will definitely save me money in the long run. The product it self isn’t too big either so it doesn’t take up much storage space. I definitely recommend it to any one who is tired of waiting for their laser clinic to have a 30% off sale :-)
Miracle – I treated my bikini line and underarms 8 weeks ago following the instructions, with a couple of cheat treatments in between, and have had an excellent result. Almost zero hair regrowth. Treatment is basically painfree just a tiny zap sensation then no after effect at all. I have medium skin colour and dark hair. Wish I had this machine 20 yrs… Read more
ago as I would have save thousands on waxing, shaving etc. With 3 women in the house this is an extremely affordable treatment.
I love it – Just used for 1st time today. Have had laser before from proffessionals. This is fool proof. Easy to use you see it killing the hair immediately. I used on 5 and done everything legs to brazillian to face and underams. Less painful then waxing
Not a long term solution – Very effective but results only lasted around 8 weeks despite following instructions religiously. Not worth the high cost in my opinion. Ready to use, reasonable quality, extremely high cost, not super impressed.

A great easy to use unit with results – Have used the unit quite a few times now, I started seeing results after the second go. Having had laser treatment before professionally, I noticed the same effects ie. small black root hair being grown out & then falling out leaving the area smooth & hair free. It does take some time due to the size of the head but I just park myself on the couch, put on some Netflix & laser away. An affordable & practical unit for me.
Had it over a year and it hasn't done a thing – Have used it from following instructions and it hasn't done a thing after one year. A waste of money. Very disappointed after what I paid for it. Thought it would be so better than paying someone to do it.
Hi Janice, Thank you for your comments. Your feedback… Read more
Works temporarily only – I am a man and I use the device on my chest and belly only. I bought this early May 2017 (using my Etihad miles and on their online store) and used it weekly ever since. In July I had to go on a business trip for 4 weeks so I could not use the machine for 4 weeks. At the first two weeks I was excited that I only had some hair growth on my chest… Read more
but after that all my chest and belly hair came back! Now that I am back to Sydney I use the machine weekly again but I still have a fluff of hair which is not going anywhere!
Also again this might be different for women but for me 3 out of 5 is the max power I can use. It is OK on the chest area but it is bloody painful on the lower belly area even when I shave there properly before using the device.

Easy to use and the results I wanted – After just two uses of the laser on my armpits I started to see results. Small bald patches started to appear and after my third time I had barely any growth. Now I just do a touch up every couple of months. It is less painful than waxing and much less mess. It's so easy to use in the comfort of home and so much cheaper than going to a clinic.

Works well ..had long term results – Very easy to use...wish had larger head but obviously it's domestic use not like in the beauty parlors. But have used it consistently and now hardly need to do anything...if wish this had been invented when I was a teenager!
Highly recommended but keep a few things in mind – I highly recommend this product. Price Expensive outlay for someone on a budget, but very affordable when compared to salon IPL prices or a lifetime of shaving, waxing etc. I got this with a $100 cashback offer through Harvey Norman, so it ended up being just under $400. Time Takes a while to work through the different parts of the body… Read more
because of the small window for body use. It's not the smallest or largest window on the market. IPL has to be repeated several times to get all the hair in the right growth phases, even at a salon. Bear this in mind because it can be frustrating. Also, because the whole area is shaved before using IPL, it's hard to see exactly where I've just used it compared to shaving or waxing, so I will need to keep doing touch ups. I still have a way to go until I am at the point of just doing touch ups though!
Comfort
On the highest setting in sensitive areas, it smarts! Otherwise, it doesn't feel like much. It's not unbearable, but I am considering buying numbing cream because having to deal with hair removal at all is pain enough!
Effectiveness
It works for me. As hair grows back in different areas, I can see where I've missed sections. I'm wondering if it may have lost its effectiveness because there are some stubborn hairs that keep returning to places I think I've covered completely, but it's still possible that I just missed them or they weren't quite in the right growth cycle. Will update on this in a few months (if I remember!).
Complaints
My only real gripe is the size of the window for body use (lost a star for that).
Overall
Knowing what I know, I would definitely purchase this again but I would also buy some numbing cream for the sensitive areas at the same time!
waste of money doesnt work – I bought mine in December was very expensive at the time have used it correctly and endlessly I have fair skin dark hair, I have used on different parts legs underarms, bikini line doesn't work I still have the same amount , don't waste your money

Works, but slowly – I got this during a great sale at Shaver Shop. I saw results after the first time I used it. The only problem was it was one small patch on one leg. I pointed it out to my husband "no hair" spot on my leg. I am now seeing more/ better results after 6 months. I use it once it a month. I think I'm just impatient. It hurts a bit on my underarms (more… Read more
sensitive skin than on my legs I guess) but there are different intensity settings.
Overall, I am happy with my i-Light Pro+
Great Product with Fast Results – Really easy to use product, not painful at all. Started to see results after only a couple of uses. Use it on my face which I was a bit scared about but super comfortable and feels safe.
Good – Comfortable with not very painful Easy to use handle. Relatively slow results, needing more sessions for best outcomes. Doesn't cause burns or darkening of skin. In general good and money worthy
Two thumbs up! – Two Thumbs up! Very efficient and it really worth. Powerful and excellent. As it says on the box you will definitely see results in very short period of time. Thanks.
Easy to use – I don't find this to be painful at all, and I use it on the strongest setting. I have noticed a massive reduction in hair growth. My only issue is that due to the small window size it does take a while to completely cover larger areas like legs, and it is a bit tricky to ensure complete coverage without gaps or overlap.
It is good however I find it takes a long time to complete a session – It is good however I find it takes a long time to complete a session. And it can be a little painful. I also find it causes ++ ingrown hairs.
It's alright... not that exciting how company markets its products – It burns skins a lot.. inspite of making it on very low... it takes ages to do laser and it's been more than 3 or 4 months still I am getting hair ...!
Easy to use, really happy with the results – Found this product easy to use. Did my legs first, saw results after the first time I did it and really impressed with the results after 3 times; barely any hair left on my legs! There are different levels, I used the middle level so it was comfortable to use.
