Many women choose to shave their faces for various reasons, including improving skin texture. This review delves into the Finishing Touch Flawless, an electric facial hair remover, to determine its effectiveness and suitability for removing unwanted facial hair.
For some, like myself, the motivation stems from a desire to improve skin texture. Issues such as acne scars, dry skin, and peach fuzz can be frustrating. While medium-to-full coverage foundation can even out skin tone, it often accentuates texture problems. Shaving aims to eliminate peach fuzz, creating a smoother canvas for makeup application.
A friend recommended the Finishing Touch Flawless, which she used for stray hairs. I purchased it on sale at Ulta and decided to put it to the test. To gauge its capabilities, we even tested it on a fuzzy fruit!
The shaving process involved slowly tracing the device's head in small circles across the cheeks, forehead, and chin. While the process can be done quickly, being meticulous and periodically evaluating progress is important.
The Finishing Touch Flawless stands out for its gentle approach. The wand is designed to be non-irritating, preventing nicks and cuts. As you move the device across your skin, hair is drawn into the wand and trimmed by a spinning head. The 18K gold-plated tool includes a built-in light, enhancing visibility for thorough hair removal.

Despite expectations of some irritation, the skin remained calm and comfortable after use.
A common concern about shaving facial hair is that it will grow back thicker and darker. However, the Mayo Clinic explains that hair typically tapers at the end. When cut bluntly, it may appear thicker and darker, but the actual hair structure remains unchanged.
After use, the wand head can be twisted off to empty the collected hair. The chamber and wand head can be washed with soap and water for hygiene. Its slim and compact design allows for easy storage in a makeup drawer.
The device operates on one AA battery (included), which some may find less convenient than a USB-compatible rechargeable option. The battery chamber can also be difficult to open. While not noiseless, the Finishing Touch Flawless produces a buzzing sound similar to an electric shaver or toothbrush.
The Finishing Touch Flawless is effective for removing facial hair instantly and painlessly without harming the skin. It can also be used on arms, knuckles, and other areas. However, its small size may make it less suitable for larger areas, and the blades are most effective on finer hair. The company offers smaller and larger versions for brows and body hair, respectively, though these were not tested in this review.

The Finishing Touch Flawless offers a quick and easy way to remove peach fuzz without the risk of bumps.
Self-sharpening blades are designed to maintain their sharpness. After each use, twist to remove the head and tap it to remove excess hair. The device is dermatologist-approved and safe for all skin types and tones. It is not a laser, hot wire, epilator, or razor. Do not rinse the head under water.
If the device is not effectively removing hair, try washing and drying your face thoroughly before use. It is normal for the head to become warm during use, but it should not become uncomfortably hot. Regularly remove the head and clear any hair from the device to maintain its performance.
The Finishing Touch Flawless is incredibly user-friendly. Simply insert the battery, turn on the device, and gently move it across the skin. The process is painless and takes only a few minutes. Cleaning is also simple, with easy access to the hair collection chamber.
The Finishing Touch Flawless receives a 5-star rating for its effectiveness, ease of use, and gentle approach to facial hair removal. It is a recommended alternative to other hair removal methods.
