Electric Shavers
Electric Shavers for Australian Men
Electric shavers provide a fast, convenient alternative to wet shaving without requiring shaving cream, foam, or a razor blade. The Remington electric shaver range at Everyday Home Living covers foil shavers across multiple performance tiers, suited to everyday use and travel for Australian men who prefer the speed and ease of an electric shave.
Foil Shavers
Foil shavers use one or more oscillating blades hidden beneath a thin perforated metal foil that sits against the skin. As the shaver passes across the face, facial hair is guided through the foil perforations and cut by the blades beneath. Foil shavers are well suited to men who shave daily or every second day, as they perform most effectively on shorter stubble and provide a closer finish than rotary shavers on flat facial contours. The linear shaving motion suits methodical, straight-stroke shaving technique.
Wet and Dry Shaving
Most Remington electric shavers are waterproof and rated for both dry shaving and wet shaving with foam, gel, or in the shower. Wet shaving with an electric shaver can reduce skin irritation for men with sensitive skin, and the waterproof rating makes rinse-cleaning the shaver head under running water straightforward after each use.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I replace the foil and cutter on an electric shaver?
Remington recommends replacing the foil and cutter cassette every 12 to 18 months for optimal shaving performance. With daily use the cutting edges dull gradually, and a worn foil can increase pulling and skin irritation rather than cutting cleanly. Replacement foil and cutter cassettes are available for most Remington shaver models and significantly extend the useful life of the shaver body.
What is the difference between a foil shaver and a rotary shaver?
Foil shavers use a straight oscillating blade beneath a flat metal foil and suit a back-and-forth linear stroke. They are generally better for short, even stubble and men who shave frequently. Rotary shavers use circular spinning heads and are designed to follow the contours of the face in circular motions, which suits men with heavier or patchier growth and stronger facial contours. Both types produce a close shave — the right choice depends largely on shaving habit and technique. Browse our full personal care range.
Can I use an electric shaver if I have sensitive skin?
Yes. Electric shavers, particularly foil models, are often recommended for men with sensitive skin as they do not make direct blade contact with the skin surface in the same way a wet razor does. Wet shaving with foam and an electric shaver rated for wet use further reduces irritation. For very sensitive skin, allow a short adjustment period of two to three weeks when switching from wet shaving to electric, as the skin adapts to the different shaving mechanism.
