The Silk n Glide uses HPL technology to remove hair, which is Home Pulsed Light technology. The great thing about this technology is that it offers a wider spectrum, which allows you to use this device on darker and tanned skin. The reason it can do this is because it operates under much lower energy levels.

Like other at-home hair removal devices, Silk n Glide has built-in safety features that ensure the device only works when pressed against the skin.

The unit does need to be plugged in during use, and a convenient case is included, so you can store the Silk n Glide when it’s not in use.
