The Arcitec shavers feature Philips’ most advanced shaver
design and latest high-end features, and the RQ1090 is the
top dog. Stylish and compact, the flex-and-pivot action-head
assembly unit offers a precision cutting system that shaves
even the shortest hairs, plus a precision trimmer for moustache
and side burns, as well as a host of other features. In fact, about
the only thing the Philips RQ1090 doesn’t do is tell you how
cool you look when you’ve finished with it (we suggest a wife or
girlfriend for that task).
Compatible with… your face, her lips.
