28 September 2013, Singapore – The all new Braun °CoolTec, the revolutionary new dry shaver that has the power to take the heat out of shaving and put shaving irritation on ice. This is quite possibly the most technologically advanced dry shaver in the world, delivering a simply outstanding shaving performance for men with sensitive skin.
“The CoolTec feature is really amazing. It makes the shaving experience very cool and for me, without any irritation. I found the shave to be close and quick. I’m very happy with this shaver and highly recommend it,” says our ‘secret reviewer’.
Braun CoolTec shaver is endorsed by Dr. Marcus Maurer, Professor of Dermatology and Allergy and Director of Research at Allergie-Centrum-Charite, Charite-Universitatsmedizin in Berlin, Germany. He comments: “As shaving aims at cutting the hair very close to the skin, mechanical interaction with the skin uppers layers occurs, ultimately leading to shaving irritation. Typical signs include burning sensation, tension and redness. By actively cooling down the skin during the shaving process, Braun’s CoolTec minimizes the appearances of these signs of shaving irritation.” It is also accredited by the Skin Health Alliance (SHA), an independent, not-for-profit organization working with international dermatologists, researchers and skin scientists.

Whether the CoolTec is the latest new must-have shaver is a tough call. If you like to wet shave, probably not. Yes, the shaver can be used in the shower. However, Braun states that you won’t get the best results from the cooling technology that way. And, since that’s the whole point of the CoolTec line, that could be a decisive factor for a percentage of buyers.
But for residents in tropical countries eg. Singapore/Thailand/Malaysia, this is a welcome change 🙂
