Invest two weeks for the shave of a lifetime!
The Norelco Advantage Razor with the patented
Lift and Cut®System is unlike any other shaving
system you’ve ever tried.The unique application of
Nivea for Men shaving lotion over the razor heads
and face as you shave sets your beard up to give
you a close, comfortable shave while leaving your
face feeling cool and refreshed. This system is so
different, that it can take your skin and beard a little
time to adapt. But it’s an investment worth making.
Use your new razor exclusively for 2 weeks
to fully enjoy the performance and comfort
of a Norelco shave.
Stick with it! If you alternate shaving
methods during the adjustment period, it
may make it more difficult to adapt to the
Norelco shaving system.
Your Norelco Advantage Razor features a special
compartment for cartridges containing Nivea for
Men shaving lotion. This unique lotion is applied to
your skin while you’re shaving to offer you the
most comfortable, smoothest shaving experience
ever from Norelco. This continuous moisturizing
prepares the skin, sets up your beard and ensures
that the razor moves smoothly over the skin, offer-
ing optimal skin contact.
