Hello,
It's good to be back, I hope you are well.
This week's RA Review is something a little different from what we usually do as we usually do reviews from manage at home, but unfortunately, we didn't manage to get any items in time for review for this week's RA Review, so we thought we would share a more personal review I say this as it's something that I and my sister (Hayley) struggle with and know that many many other people do as well we are not alone, which is facial hair growth for us it is from haven Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and there are lots of other reasons for having hair growth but PCOS is our reason.
This will be released in sections as it's not something that can be all done in one sitting.
(This is the same for films that we release which we will leave the links below each release.)
The first part is the introduction so let's get started.
Introduction
Today we are talking about the Philips Lumea Advance Which helps to prevent the return of hair growth.
The Philips Lumea comes with 3 different heads, (Face, Bikini & underarms) and a facial pen trimmer. A little bag to keep it all in.

The Lumea App helps you create your personalized treatment schedule, with tips and advice during each treatment to achieve long-lasting results.
*Median result 71% hair reduction on legs, after 12 treatments **Measured on legs, after 3 treatments, 30 out of 48 women reach 85% or high result
Before you start please read the instructions as this won't work for everyone and please do a test run first which is what we do in our first part.
There are 5 different settings on the Lumea, which you need to test on each part of the body that you want to use it on, for me, we were just doing the face as this is where my main problem is, and wanted to focus on.
First of all, you need to make sure that you have no makeup or any creams on so please make sure that you clean your face before use.
The second part is that you use that trimmer that comes in the box to trim all parts of where you plan to use the Lumea, then just wipe over your face again just to make sure that there are no loose hairs left after trimming. (you need to remove the hair as it will burn with the inferred light. Which does smell and can blister in some cases.)
Once you have completed this you then start with the test patches
starting on number 1 and working your way to level 5 moving around the area you are doing. I started from the left of my jawline to the right going up so I would no which one if any I would react to. Also if the Lumea isn't in complete contact the white light will not show up until it is in full contact then you are able to pull the trigger to test the is a little flash of red light, and don't worry it doesn't hurt the only thing I found personally was that it got a little warmer the higher you went 1-5.
Once you have completed this you then need to wait 24 hours to make sure that you don't have any reactions.
Make sure you clean everything before putting it away for your next session.
This is the end of the first part of the Review so please make sure you join us for the next review and don't forget to check out the film we did with the link below.
If you have any questions please ask but also please don't forget this is all based on our own opinions and we are not medically trained in any way.
Don't forget that we would love to hear from you if this is something that you have tried or thinking of and how you found it, did it work? did you have any problems and so on.
Join us for part two where we find out if there were any reactions and whether we could carry on or not.
