Win A Remington SmartEdge Advanced Foil Shaver EastLife

Husband of 100 years, or thereabouts, has been a diehard blade shaver all his life so when he announced he was going to buy an electric shaver I nearly grew whiskers!
And, right at that time, his ministering angel must have been within ear shot because a few days later the new Remington SmartEdge Advanced Foil Shaver arrived on my desk for review. I took it home faster than you can whet a cut throat razor.
My smooth operator was both astonished and delighted. He immediately set the shaver to charge and settled down to read all about the new toy. Although somewhat challenged by all the new technology, he was keen to see if this ‘breakthrough Active Hybrid Technology’ was indeed a ‘game-changing innovation combining the best of both foil and rotary shaving in one advanced system.’
He thought the explanation that ‘two innovative long hair trimmers (akin to slots on a rotary shaver) sandwich a multi-directional advanced foil to simultaneously pre-trim longer hairs, while shorter hairs are lifted and cut from any angle in just one pass’ sounded impressive.
And he was intrigued that the shaver combined ‘a unique pivoting neck and flexing heads that seamlessly adapt to the shapes and contours of the face.’ One critical look at his somewhat rugged contours and I said, “we’ll see, won’t we?”
He also learned – before putting it to the test – that an open-arched blade design beneath the head reduced vibration and noise during use and there was a pop-up trimmer for detailing sideburns and facial hair – the latter proved to be just what a few straggly grey locks needed.
But what really raised the little hairs on the back of his neck was this shaver’s 100% waterproof technology so it can be used dry, in the shower or with shaving gel. He couldn’t wait to play modern day barber.
Well a month down the track he’s no longer wet behind the ears when it comes to a close shave – in fact, he’s bristling to be showered, shaved and out the door in double quick time and doing so, too.
“In particular, I love the wet/gel shave; it’s given my blade shave a real run for its money!” he told me with boyish enthusiasm – the last time he was so excited was when he discovered sour bears (lost to our local stores) could be found in Queenstown!
Furthermore, as a man who is still on the go – home and away – he has appreciated the folding charging stand for travel, worldwide voltage, and the long-lasting, rechargeable battery life which provides about 50 minutes cordless use.
“I might still take the occasional blade shave but this is effortless, convenient and achieves the clean result I like. As far as I‘m concerned the Remington SmartEdge makes the cut.”
But like every wife I must have the last word – love this shaver he may well do, but have our water bills dried up? Not on your Nellie. That wet shave option is just the excuse my fresh faced lad needs to make a big splash!
Remington SmartEdge Advanced Foil Shaver XF8550AU (RRP $349.99) with a two-year warranty and 60 day money back guarantee is available from all leading electrical retailers.
