We’ve come a long way since the furore caused over Julia Roberts unconsciously baring her unshaved armpits at the Notting Hill premiere in 1999 while wearing a glittering Vivienne Tam dress.
While body hair doesn’t make anyone flinch these days, with celebs like Julia Michaels, Paris Jackson, and Amanda Stenberg flashing their fuzz on the regular, choosing to embrace your body hair (or not) is a deeply personal choice.
If you are keen on a sleeker look for your armpits, or less hair anywhere else on your body, slotting in the time to de-fuzz yourself can be hard, let alone expensive — especially if you choose to go the laser route.
Keeping up with the latest beauty trends, gizmos, and products is a little easier thanks to homegrown brand Peppy Co, which is known for its quality skin tech and skincare dupes (think LED masks and cleansing eggs). The newest addition to its product lineup, the 2-in-1 Wireless Electric shaver, comes in at a one-time investment of $89, makes shaving one less thing you have to worry about — or do in the shower.

The Peppy Co 2-in-1 Wireless Electric Shaver is known as the Effortless Shave, because you can get rid of your fluff without water, shaving cream, or soap, and it’s foolproof enough to use while viewing your favourite series (so you can actually do something useful while binge-watching). The lightweight gadget is also ‘irritation free’ and hypoallergenic, meaning it minimises the nicks, cuts, and ingrown hairs that usually rear their ugly heads when you take a blade to skin.
As a cheaper (and less painful) alternative to laser hair removal, the Wireless Electric Shaver’s long-term use also prevents choking our landfills with disposable plastic razors. But it’s also super portable — a travel-friendly, waterproof option to take with you while holidaying… or just staying over at your partner’s place. And major plus points? It also comes with a cute, free, iridescent pouch to store it in (or any other wireless vibrating gadgets you may have lying around).
So if you decide to switch it up and go dolphin smooth this summer, this fuss-free option is a painless and effortless way to incorporate hair removal into your routine.
