Although, immediately after epilating there is a little redness so dont do it right before an important event or if you need to leave the house and will be exposing your legs. We have always loved Keens, but the quality of these Keens has gone way down. very happy with this product, thanks! It has a cylindrical design though, so if it rolls down the hill. The slippers are so very comfy & I love the squirrel on them. It also came with its own protective bag. The case doesnt charge so you have to plug it in. Smells. Best for households with carpeting. They are a very good product, sturdy well made and very comfortable.
