Sensitive shaving symbol
The Philips Shaver S7000 has an S and XS symbol on it. The S symbol stands for sensitive shave
settings, and XS is for extra sensitive shave. You can select these settings via the Philips GroomTribe
App.
Note: Please keep in mind that the symbols on your Philips Shaver vary per model type. For a
complete overview of the symbols and indicator lights on your shaver refer to the user manual.
2. Which foam or gel can I use with my Philips shaver?
You can use any type of shaving foam or gel available in the supermarket or drugstore with your wet
and dry Philips Shaver. If you have sensitive skin, we advise you to use a shaving foam or gel for
sensitive skin.
Does using a foam of gel effect my shaver's performance?
Wet shaving with foam or gel uses more energy and can thus drain your shaver's battery much
faster. If you use your Philips Shaver for dry shaving only, the battery can last much longer.
Is it better to dry or wet shave with my Philips Shaver?
Both dry and wet shaving have their own advantages. It comes down to your personal choice of
shaving. Some points to consider are as follows:
1. Dry shaving can be done almost anywhere, even on the go, and there is hardly any cleaning
involved.
2. Wet shaving feels refreshing and is often beneficial for sensitive skin as it reduces friction and
irritation caused by a blade.

Play.
3. How do I get the best results with my Philips Shaver?
To get the best results from your Philips Shaver, follow our tips and tricks outlined below.
Allow your skin an adjustment period
If you are a new user of the Philips Shaver, keep in mind that your skin needs to adapt to the electric
razor. This means that your skin may feel slightly irritated in the beginning. Allow yourself an
adjustment period of two to three weeks with your new Philips Shaver.
You can also use a gentle moisturizer or aftershave lotion to minimize skin irritation after shaving.
Pre-trim your long facial hair
Shaving long hair can be uncomfortable and may lead to skin irritation.
If you have not shaved for a couple of days and have a heavy beard, it is a good idea to trim your
beard before you start shaving. This technique also helps in reducing shaving time.
