SAVE $50: As of Jan. 15, the Braun IPL Pro 5 is on sale for $299.94 at Amazon. That’s a saving of 14% on list price.

Braun is well known for its high-end hair removal devices, and as of Jan. 15, the Braun IPL Pro 5 is currently priced at $299.94 — around the same as one or two laser hair removal sessions.

The Braun device benefits from skin tone sensors, a handy tool that optimizes the power of every flash to your skin tone. It’s also sensitive on the skin, with two sensitive modes for when you use the device in delicate areas such as your face or armpit. And for those awkward-to-reach places, there are different attachments to make sure you’re getting the most out of the treatment.

But how does IPL differ from laser treatment? IPL is one of the best long-term solutions for hair removal that can be done at home. It stands for Intense Pulsed Light and is a hair removal process that uses light pulses to target hair follicles, so it reduces hair growth over time. It’s not a laser, but works similarly by focusing on the pigment in hair. It’s a relatively painless, long-term solution for hair removal.

IPL is slightly less effective than laser treatment, but it is gentler on the skin. It can also be done from home, which is a big plus.

This is a limited-time deal at Amazon, so don’t miss out.
