The Braun Series 3 ProSkin Will Change Your Mind About Electric Razors

Now that multi-tasking has become a key part of a man’s ability to tackle the challenges of everyday routines, men are constantly looking for new and innovative tools to help them achieve success in every part of life. And shaving is no exception. If you’re like a lot of men, shaving is nothing more than a chore required by your employer, so the easier and faster it can be, the better. That’s where Braun steps in.

With almost 100 years working at this exact issue, Braun gets it–and they’re always trying to make it a little bit better for you. By capturing more hair in the first stroke, the Braun Series 3 ProSkin makes your grooming routine so easy, that you can focus on other aspects of your day instead of shaving. Built to tackle a long weekend’s worth of stubble, the Series 3 ProSkin is a tool rigorously tested to ensure it will handle the job you lay out in front of it.

To really bring this badass, beard blaster to your attention, Braun brought on one of the most recognizable faces in football (or what we Americans call soccer) Real Madrid Defender, Raphaël Varane. What better place to tell us about their Frenchmen-in-Madrid ambassador, than in the beautiful, heavily French-influenced city of Madrid. Braun hosted us in the Spanish capital and talked to us about their latest and greatest – the Series 3 ProSkin (one of the best priced shavers for what you get, in our opinion) and the new multi-grooming kits (every man needs a kit like this in their bathroom). We had the chance to sit down and chat with Varane about why him, why Braun, and what’s next. (Read our interview here.)

The Series 3 ProSkin uses an advanced MicroComb technology that guides hairs into the trimmer, reducing overall shaving time. This leads to less skin irritation by cutting short and long hairs simultaneously. Add to that a sophisticated shaving system of three independently rotating cutting elements and two SensoFoils that are able to adapt to every facial contour, and you get a comfortable shave faster than any of Braun’s competitors. And if speed is what you’re after, use this wet or dry – whatever is best for you – to keep you moving throughout your day with ease.

If electric shavers aren’t your jam, we bet you’re still taking a trimmer to some hair somewhere, and if that’s the case, Braun has you covered there too. The ultimate all-in-one face, hair, and body Grooming Kit from Braun uses the latest cutting element technology to ensure that the blades last for the lifetime of the trimmer. Whether it’s precision trimming your bits down below or contour edging that well-groomed beard, you have 13 precise length settings to keep it all under control. With four detachable combs and a running time of up to an hour, the four multi-grooming kits from Braun ensure maximum precision and ultimate versatility to enable you to focus on what really matters – which is likely something less trivial than your body hair.

We get it – if you are a guy used to your routine of creaming-up and cutting off with an old-fashioned blade, it can be difficult to opt for something different. We were there too once, since there is something to be said for that time in the morning all to yourself, spending an extra few minutes on pampering. However, if you are the type of guy who only shaves because you have to, then we urge you to try something different– dare we say more efficient. We bet, after giving yourself a couple shaves, you’ll find it’s actually not all that bad. In fact, it could be the new routine you look forward to in the morning.

How and why men should add vitamin C to their skincare routine
Vitamin C is essential for men's skincare
Vitamin C, orange, blackboard

For most people -- myself included -- vitamin C is a dietary concern, and like them, I make an effort to incorporate it in my daily meals and snacks. They know it’s common in citrus fruits and many other beneficial foods, but they have no idea that it can be a significant factor in enhancing skincare.
The men who do get it know they’re on to something. For men, vitamin C for skin is just as essential, and getting products that incorporate it is a key part of their daily skincare regimen. Like me, they know what those compounds and products are, and they understand what skincare with vitamin C provides and how it works. But it’s not hard to get those same results with a little research and some extra work, so I'm here to help you get those same advantages.

Whether you’re celebrating with a date or friends or indulging in self-love, Valentine’s Day is all about indulging in the pleasantries of life. Perfectly curated plans, a fresh haircut, and a stylish outfit aren’t complete without the right fragrance to tie it all together. But wait–you don’t want to reach for your everyday staples when spraying on a cologne for a special occasion. 

Instead, try enjoying a few sprays of something you don’t wear often, or treat yourself to a new fragrance altogether. Whichever option you choose, it’s key to pick a fragrance that fits the mood of your V-day festivities so your scent doesn’t clash with how you’ll be enjoying the holiday. We’ve all encountered that one guy in life who smells like an extremely strong, lavish cologne…on a random Tuesday. Preventing a scent that’s overpowering and misplaced allows you to set the mood for yourself and those around you a whole lot better. Let’s take a look at some options.
