Luxury Razors

Following the recent posts about electric shaver, I though it would be interesting to introduce to you the Philips Arcitec, a real revolution in the world of rotary shavers.

Philips Arcitec: The future of Electric Shaver

Designed around the shaving experience, the Philips arcitec is effortless to use with an ultra slim, ergonomic  body. The advanced features combine two revolutionary technologies to provide a perfectly close shave, even on the neck.

Philips Flex & Pivot Action

The Flex & Pivot action of the Philips arcitec enables the shaver to follow the contours of the face and neck. A unique combination of three independently flexing heads set in a shaving unit that swivels with a full range of motion, ensures optimum skin contact in curved areas to catch even the most problematic neck hair.

The stainless steel blades of the Philips dual blade Super Lift & Cut system lift the hair to shave you comfortably below skin level. Combined with ultra thin shaving heads with slots to shave the longest hairs and holes to cut the shortest stubble, you experience a closer shave, even on the neck.

The Philips arcitec’s triple–track shaving heads offer 50% more shaving surface than conventional rotary heads to shave faster and closer.

The Philips arcitec has new patented precision trimming technology for ultra close and precise trimming. With greater handling, visibility and manoeuvrability, it’s perfect for precise moustache and sideburn trimming and shaping.

Philips Jet Clean System

The efficient Jet Clean system, with it’s built in charger, automatically positions the arcitec for optimal cleaning. It actively washes away stubble, drying, lubricating and charging a combination that maintains the shaver for peak performance. In the absence of the Jet Cleaning system, the Philips arcitec can be conveniently rinsed clean under the tap in seconds. The Jet Clean system is featuring:

• Cleans, dries and lubricates the shaver as it charges, ensuring consistent peak performance every day.
• It has got most advanced jet clean system with Automatic cleaning program selection
• Jet clean lubricates and maintains blades for speak performance
• Jet clean is fully powered for quick charging of the shaver
• Its active drying feature helps the shaver to quickly dry after cleaning

The arcitec has a unique storage and charging solution. It conveniently stores, protects and charges the shaver. You can fully charge in just 1 hour for 21 days of cordless shaving. The quick charge function allows a 1 minute charge for a 3 minute cordless shave.
