Electric shavers have come a long way in the last few decades. The SensoTouch 3D series from Philips Norelco is a great example of just how advanced they’ve become. This shaver features a pivoting head, waterproof design, lift and cut system, jet cleaning, and multiple cutting systems for both long and short hair. It’ll give you or your gift recipient a close shave without the fuss or mess of a conventional razor.

Did you know that beer is good for your skin? Hops have natural anti-inflammatory properties that make beer soap a good idea. This soap is made with extra virgin olive oil and sunflower, coconut and grape seed oils to nourish, soften, and moisturize your skin. Guinness is added for the hops, a great lather and the light smell of beer. Don’t worry, you won’t smell like the waitress dumped a pint on you. Note that you probably won’t get the same cleansing effect by literally bathing in beer.

The Japanese are famous around the Internet for their insane, brilliant inventions to repair aspects of every day life that don’t appear to be broken. In this case, something is terribly broken. The earthquake this past spring crippled Japan’s energy production capability because of damaged infrastructure and ruined power plants. The result is that the island nation can hardly afford air conditioning through hot summer months.

This cooling spray forms a very cold layer of foam over the skin. The foam can be worn on the arm or wrist and cools the wearer like a cold compress. This product, coupled with relaxed dress codes in businesses have allowed people to stay comfortable. Now that most of the US is in a heat wave or facing one, it’s a shame we can’t export large amounts of this stuff here.

Inhibition of the development of certain kinds of cancer.

Lowers blood pressure.

Increases skin resistance to sunlight, and aids in tanning.

Reduces urinary tract infections.

Lowers blood sugar levels.

Helps control cholesterol levels.

Aids general eye health and helps glaucoma.
