...They call the city of RiodeJaneiro "Cidade Maravilhosa" (The marvellous city), I have to say that visiting Rio was an eye opening and awe inspiring experience. This review is a selection of the best parts, with a few pointers on what not to do there.
SAFETY TIPS
------------------
**Hotels
First of all, it is recommended that tourists stay in a Hotel that is on the coastal road of Copacabana beach - Avenida Atlantico, or one of the coastal roads that run adjacent to Ipanema beach. Or choose one that only a short distance from the coast. This is because if you want to go out at night, you will not have to walk down any side roads, where you are only asking for trouble.

Well basically I bought this and think it is a total waste of money. I paid £99 for this item and thought it would be worth it, and would save a lot in the long run as I wouldn't need any other hair removal products.
The instructions were easy enough... more
ME:
I have naturally dark hair and the regrowth is quite coarse on my legs and underarms. I have found waxing at home unsuccessful and shaving creates a horrible stubble rash on my legs. I have been using a Philips Satin Ice Epilator for about 8 years... more
