For the holidays, guys just want sensible gifts that’ll make their lives easier. A smooth shave is high on his list, so I asked my hubby to test this shaver out. Being a Man Snob, he refused at first, until he saw it was a Braun Series 7. This is the company’s best and most advanced device yet – most men’s shavers need to be replaced every couple of years, but this one is guaranteed to last for 7! With 10,000 micro vibrations a minute, it catches tons of hair, even the flat-lying kind that can be so easily missed. Plus, a pivoting head and three personalization modes guarantee that the shave will fit his face just right, avoiding unsightly and painful mistakes (if only women’s razors were this kind!). And there’s no clean-up necessary! With the click of a button, the Clean & Renew™ system washes, lubricates, and powers up the shaver for its next use. So my guy’s review? A very close shave, easy to use – 9 stars out of 10. Yes, he’s a man of few words, but you get the gist! If you have a hard to buy for Man Snob like I do, give the gift of kissable smooth cheeks (something you both can enjoy) – for 7 years!

Available at Bloomingdale’s for $340.
