IPL stands for Intense Pulsed Light. It’s a technology that uses warm gentle light to put hair to sleep. Light travels to the hair’s root causing the follicle to go into a resting phase and stimulating the hair to be released. Repeat treatments gradually prevent hair from growing back, leaving your skin beautifully hair-free and touchably smooth. Philips Lumea is developed with dermatologists and clinically tested to ensure easy, effective and comfortable treatments even on sensitive areas, all from the comfort of your own home.
Objective studies show up to 92% hair reduction after three treatments***. Carry out the first four treatments every two weeks, and the next eight treatments every four weeks. After 12 treatments you can enjoy six months of hair-free smooth skin*.
Senses. Lumea’s SmartSkin sensor detects your skin tone and indicates the most comfortable light setting for you. Adapts. Intelligent attachments adapt programs tailored for each body area. Cares. Co-developed with dermatologists and inspired by you for a gentle, long-lasting hair removal, even on sensitive areas****.

✨ Product Test | Philips Lumea IPL 8000 Series with SenseIQ ✨ I’ve been testing the Philips Lumea IPL 8000 Series BRI949/00 and wanted to share my honest thoughts because I know IPL devices can feel like a bit of an investment. First impressions — it feels really premium and well made, and I love that it comes with different attachments for different areas. I was honestly a little apprehensive about using IPL at home, but I found the Lumea surprisingly easy to get the hang of. The SenseIQ technology is probably one of my favourite features. It recognises your skin tone and helps select a suitable light intensity, which made me feel much more confident about using it, especially when I was still getting used to the device. The treatments themselves are fairly quick, although you do need to be consistent. This definitely isn’t a use it once and never shave again kind of product 😂 — but with regular treatments, I’ve noticed that the hair growth in the areas I’ve been treating has become slower and the hair feels finer. I also really like the convenience of being able to do it from home. No salon appointments, no travelling anywhere and I can fit it around my own routine. The honest bit: It does take commitment and patience. You need to follow the recommended treatment schedule and keep on top of it to see the best results. It’s also not completely painless — depending on the area and your sensitivity, you can feel a warm or slightly sharp sensation — but I personally found it manageable. Overall, I’m genuinely impressed with it. If you’re considering investing in an at-home IPL device, the Lumea 8000 Series is definitely one I’d recommend looking into. It feels like a good-quality device and, most importantly, I can actually see a difference with consistent use. 💗

Brilliant
I’m genuinely impressed with this device. I started seeing results by the third treatment, which completely eased my initial hesitation about the price. The option to pay monthly with no interest made the decision even easier, and I’m so glad I went for it. Using it is effortless; the treatments are painless, and the device automatically adjusts the intensity based on your skin tone, so you always feel confident you’re using it correctly. I’m heading into summer feeling stress‑free, and honestly, becoming a hairless woman for a very long time feels amazing. Just stay consistent with your sessions and the results will speak for themselves. Absolutely worth it.
