Ditch the salon and snag this 'godsend' permanent hair-removal tool while it's over 40% off

Something we can all agree on: Unwanted body hair is frustrating. Sure, you can wax and shave regularly, but who has time for all that? That's why a growing number of people are turning to intense pulse light (IPL) hair removal. This technology zaps unwanted hairs permanently, saving you a ton of time, money and aggravation. You could have this procedure done in a salon, but it's going to cost you. Here's a thriftier option: The popular XSoul At-Home IPL Hair Removal Device, which is marked down by over 40% at Amazon, thanks to double discounts.

Why is it a good deal?

An average IPL session costs anywhere from $700 to over $1,000, depending on where you live and whether you can use insurance. That's not chump change, especially when it's not a one-and-done thing. So a top-rated at-home device for $70, down from $120 courtesy of a sale plus a $30-off on-page coupon? No-brainer.

Why do I need this?

The XSoul At-Home IPL Hair Removal Device uses professional-grade IPL technology to zap hair and break the cycle of regrowth. Use it on your legs, your armpits ... any place, really. Flip between five power levels (start at level one and work your way up) to get the removal oomph you're after. The XSoul is also easy to grip — your hand won't cramp up while you get down to business.

You can even choose between a continuously flashing auto mode for spots like your bikini line, upper lip, chin, face and armpits, or a single-flash manual mode for more sparsely hairy areas like your back, chest, stomach, arms and legs. According to the brand, hairs then "naturally fall out" in anywhere from a few days to two weeks.

What reviewers say

The XSoul At-Home IPL Hair Removal Device has more than 7,000 five-star fans who rave about how well it works.

"Money well spent!" said one enthusiastic reviewer. "This is by far the best product I have used. ... I noticed an immediate [decrease] in growth of my hair. As a woman, having hair on my chin is horrible and very hard to maintain. I did not have the regular whiskers — I had the thick, dark hair that has gotten worse since my second child. I’m so happy to have found this product and feel a whole lot more confident about myself."

A fellow happy customer called this tool "a godsend," adding, "I have only used it three times so far and have no growth on my legs and a little growth on my armpits and bikini area. ... Honestly, it’s already paid for itself after only three uses."

One helpful user wrote, "Product works well for hair removal — just need to be consistent! I do this twice a week and hair is becoming less noticeable and finer, and will eventually just not return. Be sure to shave, not pluck, before using — you need the hair follicle there to destroy."

"Actually works! But time-consuming," a final shopper mentioned. "The one downside is it takes a while to do everything — for me, it was 45-50 minutes for lower legs, armpits and bikini line."

A Lumi lover commented, "I have been using Lumi Glotion for some time now. It gives my skin a healthy glow without looking as though I'm wearing makeup. It's great for a more casual look as it evens out my skin tone while remaining sheer. I mostly wear it for daytime activities such as yoga, hiking, etc. It's possible to look fabulous without appearing to have tried too hard!"
