Philips AquaTouch AT890/17 Wet and Dry Electric Shaver is an affordable electric shaver that is fully waterproof, meaning it can be used wet with foam or gel for a smoother, more comfortable shave and greater skin protection.

Philips research has shown that there is a growing group of men that now use an electric shaver as well as blade to achieve their desired look. But when shaving with a blade, they at times experience skin damage issues such as nicks and cuts, visible redness and 'razor burn', which undermines their look. With the introduction of Philips AquaTouch, not only will they benefit from the convenience of the electric dry shave, but they will also benefit from the skin benefits of using an electric shaver wet. Shaving in the shower opens pores for a closer shave.

The Philips AquaTouch Series is for a convenient and quick wet and dry electric shave without any skin damage to make your shaving routine simpler, easier and faster. Philips AquaTouch range combines the reliability and new technology, with improved functionality and a better looking design.

• Skin Protection System - Caps covering the cutters prevent the rotary blades from damaging your skin. The rounded low-friction protection heads adjust automatically to the curves of your face.

• Patented Super Lift & Cut Technology - The Philips AquaTouch AT890 Shaver is equipped with dual blade system to give you ultra-close shave, the first blade lifts and second blade cuts, getting closer to the root of the hair. Cuts even the longest hairs and then the shortest stubble even on the neck.

• Pop-Up Trimmer - Perfect for sideburns and moustache, tailor your looks to suit your style.

• Dual Precision Cutting - Ultra-thin heads have slots in the blades to catch longer hairs and holes in the blades to shave short stubble. The stainless steel is made very to lie thin so the stubble in the skin can be easily reached.

• Efficient Power System - Enjoy the comfort of cordless shave, perfect for travelling. To charge your shaver just plug it in the adapter. After charging it for 1 hour, it will give you approximate 50+ minutes of cordless power, approx 14 shaves.

• Waterproof Shaver - AquaTouch features an inbuilt seal, so the shaver is 100% waterproof and optimised for use with shaving gel or foam for enhanced skin comfort and minimising skin irritation. To clean the shaver simply rinse under hot water, also includes a cleaning brush to remove even the smallest dust particles and hairs. Philips corrosion free heads to give it a brand-new like look even after many uses.

• Multi purpose display - shows your battery status, low, full and it also lets you know the charging indication.

Philips offers a range of replacement shaver head for its AquaTouch shaver range. All Philips shavers come with one shaver head that can be replaced after every two years for optimal shaving results. To get the most out of your shaver, you should clean its shaving head after every 3 months.

Rotary shavers require a rotating movement to get a close shave, contrary to a blade, where a rotating movement is dangerous and a linear movement is the standard. When shaving the neck, look down to catch all hairs (again, this is quite dangerous with a blade).
