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.

Anti-aging solutions are a dime a dozen on TikTok. Ditto for skincare miracles, more generally. Peptides for skin solutions are having a moment on the social media platform. Videos containing the hashtag #peptides have nearly 400 million views. What gives? It's a tale as old as time.

"There is a huge demand for anti-aging solutions, as the population wants to look as young as they feel," said Viktoryia Kazlouskaya, MD, PhD, a dermatologist in New York City. "Along with sunscreens and retinoids, peptides are gaining more and more popularity as skin anti-aging agents."

Forget the face scrubs made from oatmeal and questionable DIY concoctions. Guys, the secret weapon in your anti-aging arsenal might already be hiding in your weight room.

New research shows that building muscle might be the secret weapon you've been missing. A study published in Scientific Reports found that strength training could actually be more effective in reducing signs of aging than cardio, especially for your skin. While the study focused on women, the researchers believe the benefits hold true for men, too.

It can be a headache (literally) to go into a store and sniff through a hundred fragrance options when trying to find the best cologne for men. The coffee beans in fragrance stores are helpful in resetting your nose so all the scents don’t become indistinguishable from one another. Even still, remembering which scent was which with a sales associate hovering over your shoulder can quickly spoil a fun shopping trip. 

Avoiding the hassle of figuring out what your next cologne will be can make it easy to stay stuck to one or two colognes that have been your ride-or-die options for longer than you can remember. Having a signature scent is great–there’s just something endearing about having a loved one say something “smells like you.” But when you realize that your signature scent doesn’t fit every occasion, mood, or season, it’s time for something new.
