First Impressions:
I really wasn't sure what to expect when I opened the package that the Femini shaver arrived in but was greeted by an object that resembled a toothbrush as I delved through the packaging. Packaged in a see through plastic box I was actually quite delighted by the design of the femini at first glance. It sat well in the palm of my hand and the on/off switch was simple to operate. Would it do the job and tame my bush which had been allowed to become more unruly than I would normally allow so I could give this a true test?

The Test:
The Femini comes complete with one AA battery so I tuned it on and was surprised at the power it delivered. Billed as safe, I decided to test this claim before I put it anywhere near my, ummm, more delicate body parts and ran the blade across my hand. I'm happy to report there is no way with the design of the Femini that you can cut your hand or anything else come to that . I got a bit carried away and ran it across the front of my wrist, where it happily shaved the fine hair on my arms, whoops! You actually have to angle the blade against your skin in order for it to cut, and of course that's what I did. You can safely try this at home but be warned that once you start you need to finish the job or risk wearing a stripe up your arm -)) The cutting edge takes the form of a comb like arrangement and it's easy to see why this makes shaping using the tool easy and safe when combined with the overall design.

Satisfied that this was safe for me to use on other more delicate parts of my body, I set about taming the bush. Trimming with this tool, I soon discovered was a doddle. The design made it easy to hold: always a plus when your shaving areas that are not always the easiest in the world to see. It wasn't long before I had a love heart sculpture on my mons, I have no idea why I chose that design but it worked. It did take a bit of practice and getting used to as regards being able to actually shape lines but it wasn't that difficult and the results we pleasing to the eye. I did find that outlining the shape I wanted in black marker made life easier. [Make sure it's a on permanent marker please!]

I did find that adding a little baby powder into the equation helped but it wasn't really nessacary. The femini provides a safe, clean trim and it was easy to clean after use another plus. It was simply a case of pulling the blade casing open and brushing away the small amount of hair that it contained. I decided to go for the polished look and added the Midas Touch 8000 personal shaver into the equation at this point. Simply running the Midas over the parts I had just trimmed with the Femini. It wasn't actually nessacary to do this but it just finished the job for me as although the femini give a reasonably close trim it's not quite as close as the Midas 8000.

What's It All Add Up To?
Another excellent product by Deak, I'm happy to report is what this adds up to. Small, compact and does the job as they describe on their site. I discovered that this also works well on your legs if your in a hurry and you have a reasonable amount of growth. [I was being lazy okay -))] Because it's small you can easy put it in your travel case or handbag which is a major plus in my book. It is also designed to be used in dry skin again another plus. If you go with the marker method then I would make sure you have access to water though.

Although the femini on it's own gave a good clean trim, for best results I would team it up with the Midas Touch 8000 for an even cleaner shave. I didn't end up with any of the annoying bumps or soreness that can sometimes result when you wet shave.

If you're looking for a quick, convenient and easy way to shave then you won't go far with either the Femini shaver and combined with the Midas 8000 you're onto a sure winner.
