  • While shaving, it is important to be gentle, especially if you have sensitive skin that is prone to irritation.
  • Do not press the shaver too hard against your skin.
  • Only apply gentle pressure that makes your facial hair stand upright and makes it easier for the shaver blades to catch and cut them.
  • Gentle pressure also reduces friction between the shaver and your skin, resulting in a more comfortable experience.
  • The latest models of S9000 will help you to apply the right amount of pressure thanks to its pressure-guard feature.

My Philips Shaver is leaking

If you see water leaking from your Philips Shaver, there is no need to worry. Find out the possible causes and solutions to this problem in our article.

• There is some water inside your shaver
• After cleaning your Philips Shaver or using it in the shower, some water may settle between its inner body and the outer shell. This water seeps out by itself over time and it may seem like the shaver is leaking.
• However, please be assured that the inner body of your shaver is completely waterproof. This means that the water cannot reach the machinery of your shaver. You can continue to use your shaver without any trouble.
• To avoid this issue, always shake off your shaver after washing it and let it completely air dry before use.
