Revlon has a new set of tweezers. They have slanted tips and wide, non-slip handles. The handles are red.

Love them.

Tweezed in 1/2 the time with 1/2 the pain.

Got them at Walgreens - cheap.

I won’t confess how much I just spent on a pair of “Anastasia” tweezers! Embarassed But I might have to pick up a pair these Revlon ones next time at Walgreens...who knows, if I like em just as well as the high-end pluckers, that just means I’ll have return them to Sephora and exchange them for another new lip product or any other trinket that catches my eye!!

Thanks!

I've been having trouble with my current tweezer. Can't get a good grip. I might pick this up the next time I go to Walgreens!

Even if you stick with the expensive tweezers, these Revlon babies would be ideal for the purse or travel bag....

OR (true confessions)... the CAR. Yes, I often tweeze in the CAR. Not driving anywhere. Just parked in my driveway.

Something about the natural light and the proximity to my rear view mirror lets me see all the little hairs I don't catch when tweezing in the house.

Neighbors think I'm crazy.

Dogs love it because I let them sit in the back seat - their favorite place - to watch.

That's okay, I do it when I'm stopped in traffic! Embarassed

That's great, I've been using Tweezerman so far but it does have some problems. I'll pick up a pair of Revlon if I ever see them!

I have some nice Revlon tweezers but my all-time favorite tweezers are the ones that come with my Swiss Army Knife! They are little but for some reason, are much easier to manipulate. They also have flat tips and they never slip!

I stop in karate class and check myself out in the mirror. I obviously can't tweeze in class, but I do examine the tiny little hairs that somehow I can't see in my bathroom mirror. ROTFL Laughing

I'm glad I'm not the only one! They leave my Tweezermans to shame. I hated how -- 9 times out of 10 -- they'd slice the hair off right at the skin level so I was left with a little dark spot. I haven't had that prob with the Anastasia tweezers yet. I also love the brow scissors (best I've ever used!!) and the little brow-bone highlighting pencil!

I have had my Tweezerman for 5 years and I love them. I tried the Revlon and MAC ones years ago and wasn't as impressed.

I have used the the revlon tweezers that you get in a pouch type thingy with scissors and nail clipper. I thought they were so-so.

I am currently using a pair of white tweezers by Cosmopolitan that come in a small white sleeve thing. they are a knock off of tweezerman!

I have been using tweezerman....and i think every woman should invest in a tweezerman tweezer. They last a lifetime and is soo precise in taking off even the stubborn ingrown hairs.
