This Father’s Day, Boost His MOJO

Decades ago, the iconic soap-on-a-rope and striped tie represented the hallmark of Father’s Day gifts. Hygiene! Fashion! Two things that dear old dad definitely lacked, yes?

Today, things are a little different.

Canadian fathers are fashionable. They’re more willing to follow trends in culture, technology and the arts. In fact, the 30-something fathers represented in my Facebook feed are nothing like the 30-something fathers of the 80’s! Today’s fathers wear motorcycle jackets (for fashion) and spritz expensive cologne (designer, of course). They unabashedly tote around their infants in baby carriers and know how to properly order a Triple, Venti, Soy, No Foam Latte from Starbucks.

They have MOJO.

This Father’s Day, boost his MOJO with these stunning picks from Philips guaranteed to appeal to the modern dad. I’ve hand-picked my top 3 selections – take a peek, and get shopping!

Philips Shaver Series 9000. The Philips Shaver Series 9000 brings you the most advanced shaving system yet. It introduces newly designed shaving heads that move in eight directions and cut up to 20 per cent more hair in a single pass.

Features:

– V-Track Precision Blades, a state-of-the-art system that guides hairs into the optimal cutting position for a 30 per cent closer shave with comfort
– Diverse speed settings to best fit your skin and hair type day after day: Slow (more skin-friendly shave), Medium (thorough shave), and Fast (high-powered shave)
– Each shaving head, with unique Contour Detect Technology, independently moves in eight directions to follow your face’s every curve

The Philips Shaver Series 9000 is my top pick for Father’s Day. It’s the gift of smooth, supple skin! 

Philips Sonicare DiamondClean. The Philips Sonicare electric toothbrush provides optimal cleaning between teeth and along the gumline for improved gum health in just two weeks. The toothbrush features Philips’ best whitening brush head, which has diamond shaped, medium stiffness bristles to effectively yet gently scrape away plaque. It provides an exceptional cleaning and whiter teeth compared to a manual toothbrush.

Now, can we talk for a minute about its designer looks? I daresay this black toothbrush is perfect for the fashion-forward father, especially one that takes pride in both the appearance of his teeth and the appearance of his toothbrush. The sleek charger glass also serves two functions: simply place the Philips Sonicare electric toothbrush in the glass to charge, or he can also use it to rinse his mouth after brushing.

(And ladies, if you can get your hands on the pink Philips Sonicare DiamondClean, y’all can be fashionably matchy-matchy with your man. Fab!)

Philips Viva Collection Airfryer. You know how they say the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach? Well, my husband prefers a washboard stomach (no “dad body” for him). And now he can have the best of both worlds – delicious food and healthy cooking – with the Philips Air Fryer.

Philips’ unique fryer lets you fry with air to make food that is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Little or no oil is needed to ensure perfect texture and delicious results!

Using Rapid Air technology, the Airfryer circulates hot air around a metal mesh cooking basket, requiring little or no oil as it fries, bakes and grills. The starfish design on the bottom of the Airfryer facilitates air circulation, ensuring your favorite foods cook evenly.

So, my husband can have his french fries… and eat them too! Shh – this is what he’ll be receiving for Father’s Day this year. Stay tuned for my full review after we put it to the test!

So there you have it – my Top 3 Father’s Day picks for the metrosexual male. This year, reward dad for being fabulous – and fabulously modern – with any of the Philips products above.
