Philips AquaTouch wet-and-dry shavers

Express yourself everyday

Spare yourself the nicks and cuts with an invigorating shave that you can only get from using the AquaTouch wet-and-dry shaver from Philips. The AquaTouch shavers are designed to give a comfortable dry shave and a refreshing wet shave every time.

Its inbuilt Aquatec seal makes the shaver fully waterproof and optimized for use with shaving gel or foam.  This means enhanced skin comfort and minimal skin irritation.

With AquaTouch, Philips provides a tool for men to express themselves every day and make sure that they look smooth and suave, every time.

Health and Wellness

Philips Sonicare Healthy White and Philips Sonicare for Kids

Oral care for the entire family

Keep tabs on the family’s oral hygiene and make sure that they’re getting only the best care for their teeth. Take their brushing habit to the next level with the Philips Sonicare HealthyWhite and Sonicare for Kids. With its revolutionary sonic technology, the Sonicare power toothbrush cleans teeth and gums at an amazing 31,000 strokes per minute, and promises cleaner and whiter teeth in just two weeks.

Philips HealthyWhite utilizes a 2-minute Smart Timer that automatically tracks brushing time and turns the toothbrush off after the cleaning is complete. This ensures ample brushing time and strokes every time they brush. Teeth stains brought about by consuming coffee, tea, red wine and other culprits are removed with the regular use of Sonicare HealthyWhite’s two cleaning modes: the Clean Mode, which runs for two minutes and results in a standard clean; and the Clean and White Mode, which is a standard two minute Clean Mode with an additional 30 seconds of White Mode to focus on visible front teeth.

The Sonicare for Kids, on the other hand, is designed for small teeth and gums, with detachable rubberized brush heads that are interchangeable depending on your child’s age. A Kid Timer helps increase brushing time for more effective cleaning while two kid-friendly brushing modes offer just the right power for the appropriate age.
