Philips HP6401 Satinelle Epilator Review

By Penova Dewan | Last Updated On May 19, 2018

Hi there, I have been newly introduced to Epilators and I've determined to write and let you know all about them and especially give you my Philips HP6401 Satinelle Epilator review.

But first, let me know something up.

Personally being a female I was quite familiar to this epilator, my boyfriend does so my introduction to them and I feel quite happy to have it. So you may be asking yourself what do I know about epilators and why you should listen to me.

Well after my boyfriend stated what they do and how better they are (and I can mention here that they do very good job actually) I decided to buy and go for Philips Epilator as a solution for my hair removal.

At the beginning of this decision, I knew very little about epilators. So had to study them myself, with a little help I was soon clued up and was able to make a very positive decision.

And finally, I found the Philips HP6401 Satinelle Epilator as one of the best epilators into the market. Stay with me and read my article to learn more….

Philips Hp6401 Satinelle Epilator Review

If I were to explain Philips Satinelle HP6401 in simply a few words, I would say excellent epilator for a low price. It is a pretty basic corded epilator indeed.

The Satinelle is one of the best epilators on the market nowadays. Though it is only designed to remove leg hair, it also helps to remove the hairs including ankles, knees underarms and bikini line.

Philips Hp6401 comes with a 45-day money back guarantee if any of the customers are not satisfied with this epilator. Inside the box there:

  • Philips Hp6401 Epilator
  • Instruction manual
  • Efficacy cap
  • 7-foot cord

However, there is not a whole lot about this epilator. Below I am trying to share more about this product that I've experienced.

The design of the Philips Hp6401 Satinelle

This epilator fits perfectly in the palm of your hand as its incredibly small size. The Philips Hp6401 is very easy to use and looks gorgeous. This epilator is different to the others because it designs incredibly lightweight and small.

It is a corded epilator and has the ability to accept 100-220V. This epilator is pretty easy to clean although there was no cleaning brush.

Tweezers of the Philips Hp6401

The Philips Hp6401 features 21 tweezers, and it is one of the numbers on a complete sized epilator. It can cover a small area with its single head of rotating tweezers.

The tweezers of this epilator are not covered as they come close to the skin. Philips declares that this confirms this epilator to remove hair as short as 0.5mm.

Plug type of Philips Hp6401

In fact, I always love to have corded epilators. This epilator is corded and not rechargeable. So there is nothing have to worry about battery and to recharge it. Nevertheless, at a little over 7 feet, this cord is very thin and long.

Speed settings of Philips Hp6401

The Philips Hp6401 epilator comes with two speed settings: high and low. If one needs to turn on this epilator he or she just has to slide the On/Off button.​

I think speed settings depend on my hair type and the area I decide to epilate. Phillips designs speed 1 is for thin hairs and speed 2 for more coarse hair. 

Speed 1 offers 600 tweezes per second where speed 2 gives 733 tweezes speed. The head rotates 29 times for speed 1 and 34 times for speed 2 per second.

The efficacy cap

The Philips Hp6401 comes with just one epilating cap that guessed to be for highly sensitive regions.


Philips which is a well-known company that designs and delivers this machine with some basic characteristics. As like many other products it also has some pros and cons. Let's have a look at:

Pros

  • It has nice body with user-friendly ergonomics
  • It is very easy to clean
  • It is less expensive
  • It has two-speed settings

Cons

  • Very noisy
  • Can't be used on face
  • The protective cap is useless

Would I buy this Philips HP6401 Satinelle Epilator?

Yes, I would like to buy this product because this product is budget friendly for me. And I think others who want to get an epilator within his budget limit should give this product a try.

I also prefer this Philips epilator because:

  • It is a smaller model which helps to reach smaller areas like bikini line.
  • It features a good beginner level model for new one.
  • Comfortable and easy to remove unwanted hair.

What did Customers think?

I research on the internet before I decided to buy this product and I find most of the feedback is positive. However, I also find some people with negative views where the use of epilators, in general, is not for them.

It is a smaller model but works better compared to the others. The epilating system only takes a little longer. Customers claim that this one is good value for money.

Final Verdict

We may never understand why Philips epilator didn't comprise a cleaning brush, but that is a minor problem. One thing I do want to reference is that during my Philips HP6401 Epilator review, dark, coarse hairs had a much harder time being removed.

Why? I'm not sure.

I had to go over these dense hairs several times before they were removed entirely.

Some customers experienced redness or bumps after use, but this is completely normal. I do want to say that I've had the joy of trying many epilators and the Philips HP6401 resulted better compared to the others – which is nice.
