At 26 year old I have found myself getting a severe case of what every man hates to see....nose hair. Being of the timid sort I am not one for plucking and gone are the days when I can ignore the small bush starting to emanate from my nostrils. so a few months ago I invested in the Babyliss Nose & Ear Trimmer which has since helped me ease those little signs that I am kicking on!

I paid £13.99 for the Babyliss Nose & Ear Trimmer Model 7010. This is much more expensive than rival products but my buying philosophy is "buy cheap, buy again" so I tend to stick to the upper end of the market, not for being a snob, but because I would rather buy a quality item than 5 bad ones. The Babyliss Nose & Ear Trimmer Model 7010 is certainly quality.

The Babyliss Nose & Ear Trimmer Model 7010 comes in a tasty little design and is certainly eye catching. It is chrome and washes easily. One of the first things you may notice is how light this feels, even with a battery in this feels very light and this makes it easy to use and portable. Although is is light it certainly does not feel cheap in anyway so the solid construction shows and I have even dropped the Babyliss Nose & Ear Trimmer Model 7010 onto a hard bathroom floor three of four times and it is still working fine. A tough little cookie!

How does the Babyliss Nose & Ear Trimmer Model 7010 perform then? Well the first thing to note is that this is cordless so there are no wires in the way. It requires just one AA battery and uses very little power so the battery I put in 4 months ago is still going strong. (Again that is using a top end battery). That is not to say it has little effect though and this will give you a powerful "trim".

I am commenting here on the performance of the Babyliss Nose & Ear Trimmer Model 7010 as a nose hair trimmer as I have yet to develop ear hair so I have no idea how well it would work on that front. However suffice to say this device gives a close, pain free trim that has signalled the end of my nose hair days.

I have used a similar product which was very rough on the nose and left it itchy and sore but the Babyliss Nose & Ear Trimmer Model 7010 is nice and smooth with a good powerful motion but not one that harms the nose. Of course it tickles a little but that is only to be expected but all round the Babyliss Nose & Ear Trimmer Model 7010 is a smooth comfortable trim.

There is only one speed which is not a problem as that speed suffices for all and the wet/dry setting means you can add extra comfort and not worry about getting the device wet.

Overall the Babyliss Nose & Ear Trimmer Model 7010 is something I would recommend very strongly indeed. It does a great job, gives a nice close trim at a comfortable level of trimming and kisses goodbye to those peskey nose hairs.
