However, our shopping experts are well-versed in finding the best devices to keep you looking sharp and feeling healthy, whether you’re looking to trim down your beard, hydrate your skin or improve your flossing game with a high-powered jet of water. With over five years’ experience in beauty and health journalism, Florence has written for ELLE, Women’s Fitness, Sister Magazine, National Geographic Traveller and many more, with a strong sustainability angle thread through much of her work. Seven cleaning modes (daily clean, sensitive, gum care, intense clean, whitening, super sensitive and tongue clean)

Brushing modes: The vast majority of toothbrushes have several cleaning modes depending on the type of brush you're after. For instance, some will have specific settings for sensitive teeth, gum cleaning, daily cleanse or a dedicated mode for cleaning your tongue. Pricier models will feature more modes and, while most are largely the same sort of thing with minute variations in speed, it might be that you need to look after delicate gums for the foreseeable future. There’s a lot to love about the overall design and function of the Multishape. If this was a mediocre beard trimmer or electric toothbrush, then it wouldn’t be a very exciting product, but that’s not the case. Fortunately, I wanted to use every single attachment and accessory that came with this men’s grooming tool. Now, because I have a beard, I only use the foil shaver for touch-ups and shaping, but I’ve found that it cuts the hair extremely close to the skin for a shave that’s comparable to my favorite men’s razors.The Panasonic Multishape with beard trimmer head and rotating adjustment dial.

In addition, the Multishape beard trimmer features a rotating dial system so that you can easily adjust the length settings in 0.5mm increments. I’ve been using this system to keep my beard in shape for the last six months, and I’m very happy with the results. I’ve had a beard for almost 10 years and counting, and I’ve tested a lot of beard trimmers for SPY (see also: the Philips-Norelco Multigroom 9000, the Wahl Color Pro, and the Wahl Stainless Steel Lithium-Ion Cordless Beard Trimmer), and the Multishape has become my new go-to.

Instead, all the customization is done through the mobile app. That's not an issue once you've set it to your exact preferences, though; provided you don't like to switch modes on the fly, it's a superb brush. It's not a true smart brush like the above Oral-B, as it has no sensor to detect mouth position, but it will flash if you put too much pressure on your gums and has both regular and sensitive modes. For thirty dollars, or the equivalent? It's excellent. Included accessories: iO7 handle with ultimate clean brush head, 1 premium travel case, 1 charger, 1 refill holder
