BRAUN's flagship "Men's Shaver Series 9" is the only shaver in the world to employ sonic vibration technology. The product is designed to work with various shaving elements, such as the 2x OptiFoil™ and Direct and Cut trimmer, all of which can be easily switched around depending on your needs that day.

Just one smooth stroke is enough to keep those unwanted stubbles at bay. The shaver also has AI that can automatically detect the beard's thickness and adjust its power settings. Men with sensitive skin will especially love using it, since being gentle on the skin is one of its biggest features!

"RF Facial Device" by Panasonic aims to make anti-aging facial treatment easily accessible right at home. It packs powerful technology such as ultrasonic waves and RF (radio frequencies) that are often used by professional beauty salons into a conveniently sized handheld device so that you can always give your skin the best care possible at any time.

The device is designed to adhere firmly to areas of the face that are most likely to show signs of aging, like the area around the mouth and the face line. When used long-term, the device can help keep facial skin smooth, supple, and well-hydrated from the surface down to the pores. Of course, you can also use it to freshen up a little before heading out to meet new people. Make that first impression count!

"Rei Beauté Venus" is a beauty device that uses light irradiation to remove unwanted hair. It's the first of such devices in Japan to be water-resistant, which means it can be safely used in the bathroom.

There's also a special attachment that can be used to care for hair removal in the genital region, designed under the watchful direction of an experienced doctor.

Over time, you'll see your skin getting smoother and smoother with every use. The optical technology removes unwanted hair while being very gentle on the skin. It's a product that lives up to the hype surrounding it!

Start slowly working your way through any unsightly body hair before the weather becomes warmer, so that you can dress lighter with more confidence when summer rolls around.
