Philips Electric Shaver Buying Guide
Philips produce a wide range of electric shavers, and used to have a specific shaver brand, Philishave. There are many Philips models to suit all pockets and shaving requirements.
Philips Ranges
In the following section we have identified the main Philips model ranges. You will find all shavers within a range will give the same quality of shave as they share common parts such as the shaving heads and motor.
The different models within that range allow you to choose features such as low charge warning lights, charging level displays, longer running time, shorter charging time etc. Generally, by moving up to a higher range you will find more advanced features and rotary cutting heads.
Let us now begin in helping you choose the best Philips Shaver for your needs, from the top down…
For older models, please see our Philips Legacy Section.
Philips Arcitec
Philips Arcitec, released in July 2007, builds on the style of cutting heads developed for the SmartTouch and provides a new slant on what an electric shaver should perform and look like. The Arcitec features all of the benefits of the SmartTouch range but in an updated, carefully progressed design.

Philips Coolskin
Philips Coolskin are a fantastic way of combining a wet shave with the convenience of dry shaving. The Coolskin range are fully waterproof allowing use in the shower or bath. Each shaver has a compartment to fit a sachet of Nivea shaving balm to be applied during shaving. By pressing a button on the shaver this balm is dispensed onto the surface of the cutting heads in order to soothe and smooth your morning shave.
The Coolskin was originally marketed as a shaver for people who suffered from shaver burn or irritation from shaving. However they are now used by a broad cross section of users who benefit from the versatility. In terms of shaving head performance and technology Coolskin uses modern 3-D reflex contour following system found in many other top Philips Shavers.
The Nivea balm is available in two varieties, a cooling gel or a soothing cream. While this is a great idea, obviously you are free to manually apply shaving creams and gels of your choice. We find most people use the specially designed cartridges as it is so convenient.
