While we spend an awful lot on taking care of our appearance on the outside – layering on lotions and potions and undergoing treatments that target the superficial layers of the skin – how many of us understand the relationship to what we put into our bodies and our appearance? Yes, we’ve long since grasped the importance of good nutrition with regards to health and building muscle mass, but what about the impact it has on how we look?

From quality protein powders that help with anti-ageing and amazing collagen supplements that beef up natural collagen production, to IV drips that can enhance skin tone, read on for ways that you too can bolster your grooming regime from the inside out.

GET AN INTERNAL ASSESSMENT

The skin is your body’s largest organ, so understanding how it works is the first step in knowing how to give it the nourishment it needs.

Glowing skin is about more than good genes – It’s a reflection of your overall health, so to ascertain where you’re at you need to get a solid reading of your body. Enter Compound.

A brand new high-end health service and app from Australian tele-health provider, Eucalyptus (the parent company of lauded Aussie skincare brand, Software) Compound is a medical concierge that offers comprehensive diagnostics and a structured program to improve every aspect of your health.

“Compound’s comprehensive diagnostic screen, gives us a complete view of a member’s health,” says Compound’s clinical director and specialist GP, Dr Matt Vickers. “Importantly it then provides the platform to have a discussion about what each metric means and as importantly how we leverage elements of the program to optimise their health, inside and out.”

This holistic approach also involves extensive blood testing, which will help to reveal some of the most common culprits sabotaging your skincare goals. For example, tests can identify things such as low-grade inflammation, which damages collagen and fuels problems like acne, rosacea, psoriasis, and faster ageing. Also, vitamin and mineral deficiencies – certain vitamins (like A, C, E) and minerals (zinc, selenium) are skin superstars, so low levels mean issues such as dry, flaky skin, slow healing, and hair loss. Vitamin D is crucial for skin cell turnover, wound healing, and immune regulation within the skin and acne issues may mean your D needs a boost. Blood sugar levels are also ascertained, which can have a bearing on both collagen damage via glucose spikes and acne (studies show those with acne often have underlying blood sugar imbalances).

In addition to a full suite of scans and tests and unlimited access to a doctor and health coaching team the Compound service includes prescriptions to any medication and supplements that may be needed to remedy any issues, skincare and beyond.

PICK YOUR PROTEIN

No longer consumed exclusively by bodybuilders, elite athletes, and gym junkies, protein powders play an essential role in many of the body’s physiological processes, from helping to build muscle mass and bones, to increasing energy and repairing skin tissue.

Protein supplies the body with the essential amino acids required to make keratin – one of the building blocks of the human body and the form of protein that makes up our skin, hair and nails. In fact, if you’re struggling with dry skin or hair loss it might be due to a lack of protein in your diet.

A high-quality supplement, pea protein is both hypo-allergenic and high-fibre and contains all the essential skin-loving amino acids. Arbonne’s Feel Fit Pea Protein Shake is a great option, especially given that it’s made with premium ingredients backed by clinical research.

Another brilliant plant-based option, hemp protein is a superstar supplement that contains all nine essential amino acids – making it great for body repair and maintenance – and is rich in Vitamin E, which helps promote skin elasticity and reduce premature ageing.

Forest Super Foods produce full spectrum super foods with all active compounds and nutrients intact that are both certified organic and largely locally sourced within Australia. Their Australian Hemp Protein is the perfect product to promote all of the above benefits, as well as Omega 3 and 6, which are essential ingredients for plump, hydrated, glowing skin.

SUPPLEMENT WITH COLLAGEN

A key component in bones, muscles, and other body parts, collagen is vital for our survival. It’s also a key factor in how good we look. Increased evidence has shown that collagen supplements help to improve skin moisture, elasticity, and hydration, when orally administered. Additionally, collagen reduces the wrinkling and roughness of the skin and Happy Mammoth’s Prebiotic Collagen Protein is the perfect way to maintain skin health from the inside out. Formulated with high quantities of Bioactive Collagen Peptides per serve it promotes collagen formation at a cellular level in the skin.

Another great collagen and peptide blend is Bush Tucker Blends Collagen Protein Peptides. Also incorporating protein into the mix, it not only builds muscle but helps hair growth, nail repair and promotes glowing skin.

OPTY.NC Ultimate 3.0 Marine Powder is an all-in-one advanced elixir that combines 12 science-backed ingredients, including marine collagen peptides, and is tailored to specific concerns of 50-plus-year-olds. The unique formula plumps the skin via collagen and Hyaluronic Acid and protects against skin damaging free radicals.

PERK UP YOUR SKIN FROM THE INSIDE

The use of IV drips outside of a trip to the emergency room has been with us for some time now. Boosting your immune system? Check. Fighting that Sunday morning hangover? Check. But how about IV vitamin therapy as a legitimate way to enhance skin tone?

Face of Man have been a staple in Sydney’s male grooming scene for more than 40 years and now, alongside their stable of more traditional treatments – facials, barber and massages included – they have added Glutathione IV Therapy to their offering.

A type of antioxidant that’s produced naturally in the body, glutathione works well against free radicals and other substances that damage the skin, regenerating Vitamin E and other organic pigments, and resulting in more healthy, youthful-looking skin. After multiple sessions users can even expect to see skin brightening, more even skin tone and reduced hyperpigmentation. Beyond skin benefits, glutathione infusions may also ease symptoms like low energy, chronic fatigue, dehydration and headaches.

SHORTCUT SKIN SUPERFOODS

An unhealthy diet can damage your metabolism, cause weight gain, and even damage organs, such as your heart and liver. But what you eat also affects another organ: your skin. And a shortcut to great skin is knowing what to eat.

The best way to truly get your skin to glow from the inside out is by ensuring that you’re eating a variety of superfoods and at the top of the list for great skin is Vitamin C. High levels of vitamin C in lemons work to neutralise free radicals and help the body in producing collagen for firmer-looking skin.

Forest Super Food’s Certified Organic Camu Camu Berry is made from Came Camu – one of the world’s highest food sources of Vitamin C. And the Forest Super Food’s packs a serious punch with 130 per cent of your recommended daily intake of Vitamin C in just one serve. Get ready for healthy, radiant skin!

Sip your way to healthier-looking skin with Arbonne’s acaí-flavoured, vegan SkinElixir Collagen Builder. The supplement pairs antioxidant Vitamin C with Hyaluronic Acid to help skin retain moisture and with support and maintain smooth looking skin and with Biotin to support and maintain healthy hair, skin and nails.

BUY NOW

Another winner from their range of products is BeWell Superfood Greens. Nutritionists often advocate eating a ‘rainbow’ of fruit and vegetables thanks to the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects that many of these colourful foods have. This superfood powder delivers a blend of 36 fruits and vegetables in each serving providing the full colour spectrum for better looking skin.

BUY NOW

Lastly, Bush Tucker’s True Blue Immunity contains Australian native whole food sources of Vitamin C, D3, zinc and other antioxidants, a potent combination that may help decrease inflammation, improve cell turnover and improve various skin conditions.

How To Look Younger With A Few Grooming Hacks

5 Ways To Become Better Looking As You Age

The post How to eat your way to better-looking skin appeared first on Men's Health Magazine Australia.

Rather than going into panic mode, instead make a beeline for your bathroom cabinet and read on for a few top tips that will take you from dusty to dashing in under an hour. 

DRY SKIN

The Sahara-like condition of your skin is one of the first calling cards of alcoholic excess. Ethanol robs fluid from body, leaving you looking (and feeling) parched. 

TRY: 

Look for hyaluronic acid. A powerful moisturiser, hyaluronic acid holds 1,000 times its weight in water, which means it’s a godsend for restoring moisture, softening fine lines and more. 

Dr. Jart+’s Vital Hydra Solution Hydro Plump Treatment Essence features hyaluronic acid at its core.  Available through skincare one-stop-shop, MECCA the fast-absorbing treatment primes, plumps and helps rebuild skin’s barrier after just one use.

BUY NOW

Another great option is Software’s Hyaluronic Complex Serum. A lightweight serum, the ultra-hydrating  product is enriched with four different types of hyaluronic acid to deeply moisturise the skin and target dryness, dullness, and fine lines. 

BUY NOW

OILY T-ZONE

If you’re even more shinier than usual on your nose and forehead, there’s good reason. While oil production is essential for healthy skin, the oil slick on your t-zone could be the result of a late night and alcohol combo. Both of these things stimulate excess oil production and the results ain’t pretty!

 TRY: 

A deep clean. It’s the cornerstone of any skincare regime (as any dermatologist will tell you) and you should be spending at least one minute cleansing the skin to remove all the pollutants and oil from the previous night.  

The Luna 4 Men Smart Facial Cleansing and Firming Device by Foreo is equipped with bristles especially adapted to men’s thicker, oily skin, helping to remove pore impurities, oil, dead skin cells, and everyday pollution in just 30 seconds. It’s also an ideal skin prep ahead of shaving (more of that below) which helps prevent razor burn. 

BUY NOW

Avoid skin-stripping soap and use a product specifically developed for men’s skin, which is oilier and thicker. Omorfi’s Skin Clearing Salicylic Acid Face Wash is ideal.  Formulated with potent ingredients – including salicylic acid and witch hazel – the lightly foaming gel will clear impurities and tighten enlarged pores. 

BUY NOW

Finally, if you need even more of an oil slick mop up, then try a facial masque. NIOD’s Flavanone Mud is one pf the best on the market. Purifying the skin and enhancing natural radiance, its three-phase “dermal decongestion” system helps rid the skin of surface impurities and excess sebum. 

BUY NOW

STUBBLE

While shaving may seem even more of a labour than usual in your hungover state, letting your stubble grow for more than a day can result in ingrown hairs and unsightly razor bumps. Plus, being clean shaven will detract from any lingering signs of a heavy night. 

TRY: 

After cleansing (see above) with the Luna 4 Men Smart Facial Cleansing and Firming Device, lather up with Foreo’s antioxidant-rich LUNA™ Shaving + Cleansing Foaming Cream. This two-in-one wash doubles as a shaving cream and is designed to produce a rich lather to help soften bristles for an extra-smooth shave. 

BUY NOW

Afterwards, splash with a quality toner to close pores and remove residue. The Perfect Toner for Aussie skincare brand, Leitin’s is a great option. Skin-loving ingredients include actives rich in antioxidants and four distinct molecular weight hyaluronic acid compounds. 

BUY NOW

DULL AND BLOTCHY SKIN

Most of us know that one of the side affects of alcohol is blood rushing to the surface of the skin. And while some of us are impacted more than others, a night on the tiles will leave most of us with a complexion that’s far less than perfect. Add to this a shortened and interrupted night’s sleep (alcohol also affects the quality of sleep) and the dehydration affects of booze, and you’ll be left with a blotchy, dry and discoloured mug. 

TRY: 

The simplest (and quickest) way to give your skin a post-party wake-up call is to exfoliate and the ELEMIS Dynamic Resurfacing Facial Pads from MECCA are idea. Harnessing dual-action resurfacing tech, the best-selling facial pads sweep away dead skin and impurities revealing a visibly smoother and more even complexion. 

BUY NOW

An absolute game-changer in the skincare world was the invention of the LED facial mask and when it comes to the granddaddy of at-home facial masks, the San Lueur LED Light Face Mask is it. Billed as the world’s first LED mask that delivers all three clinically approved wavelengths (that’s blue LED light targeting blemishes and breakouts, red LED light minimising redness, inflammation and hyperpigmentation, and near-infrared light stimulating collagen and elastin) the Australian-owned brand has already made waves in the grooming world internationally. 

Working on a cellular level to stimulate new collagen production and to tackle an A to Z of other skin woes, it is clinically proven to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, redness, irritation, dark circles, under-eye bags, pigmentation, and overall skin tone — and all in an easy 10-minute session. How’s that for a claim? 

BUY NOW

For extra glow oomph, follow with a top-tier Vitamin C serum, such as E.S.K’s C Forte. Hydrating and brightening, this L-Ascorbic Acid rich serum also helps to actually reverse sun damage. 

Still need a pick-me-up? If you’re feeling seriously pallid then you can even out your complexion with a tinted moisturiser or BB cream. Try O Cosmetics Mineral Pro Spf 30+ Sheer Tint, which gives lacklustre skin a subtle, sun-kissed glow. 

BUY NOW

DARK CIRCLES AND TIRED EYES

Eyes are said to be the window to the soul — they’re also the window into a heavy night out. In fact, nowhere betrays a booze-fuelled stint of partying more than the delicate eye area. Dark circles are emphasised by a lack of sleep and alcohol, while bloodshot eyes are the result of smoke, pollution and booze. 

TRY:  

Geske’s Warm & Cool Eye Energiser. A game-changing grooming tool from Sweden, this versatile device combines cutting-edge technology to rejuvenate your delicate eye area. The warm mode gently soothes, increasing blood circulation and reduces puffiness, while the cool mode refreshes and tightens the skin. But it doesn’t stop there – built-in micro-current and sonic vibrations stimulate collagen production helping to diminish fine lines and dark circles.

BUY NOW

The skin around the eyes is the thinnest on the body, which means that your average moisturiser is far too thick.  Instead, invest in a specially formulated eye product like Clear Skincare’s Moisture+ Plumping Eye Gel. Packed full of antioxidants and vitamins, the gel helps hydrate and nourish the delicate skin around the eyes all while reducing the appearance of fine lines and dark circles. 

To combat red eyes, use brightening eye drops sparingly and regularly. 

BUY NOW

LANK AND SMELLY HAIR

Excessive application of hair product the night before can block hair follicles, leaving hair looking fine and dull. Also, hair absorbs odours, so chances are your barnet will have retained some of the nasty night before niffs. 

TRY:  

A good cleansing routine doesn’t end with your skin. Make sure you remove all traces of product and night-club air, and give your hair a thorough clean with a deep-cleansing shampoo. Software’s Hair Growth Shampoo is a triple whammy formulation. Hair is deep cleaned, deeply hydrated, and hair growth is boosted with hair-loving ingredients. Follow with Software’s Hair Thickening Conditioner. 

BUY NOW

Post-wash, go for a styling product that offers a strong, pliable hold with low-shine to give hair a natural, clean finish. American Crew’s best-selling Classic Fiber is a great option for adding fullness and texture and it’s suitable for both curly and straight hair.

MYSTIC BLISS, GOLDFIELD & BANKS

New for next month (RELEASED AUGUST 1) Mystic Bliss – from Australia’s first luxury fragrance house, Goldfield & Banks — is a homage to the ancient forests of Tasmania’s Flinders Island.

True to the brand, which has built a reputation for championing Australia’s botanical richness, the new scent tells the story of the island’s rugged beauty through its use of the ancient, native flower, Kunzea.

Flipping the fragrance creation process on its head, the brand takes a scientific approach to crafting fragrances — a process that looks at the desired mood or behaviour first and then creates a prescription of ingredients designed to induce this emotion. 

Oud for Greatness Neo focuses on the natural essence of oud wood, which is enhanced with the presence of three other main notes: fir balsam, bergamot, and orpur lavender. Intense and long-lasting, the scent has been designed to boost confidence and positive energy and to create a sense that “anything is possible.” Now that’s appealing!

The post Winter warmers: your ultimate guide to the best scents for the chilly season appeared first on Men's Health Magazine Australia.

In a rare demonstration of cross-code solidarity, NRL Dally M medal winner Kalyn Ponga and four-time AFL ’22 under 22′ team member Bailey Smith have joined forces with Australian grooming brand Stuff That Matters. The result of the collaboration is a lineup of game-changing antiperspirant deodorants and body sprays that are available in various major retailers across the country and online right now, in ‘Confidence’, ‘Sport’, ‘Good Fella’ and ‘Smooth Operator’ varieties.

These are no run-of-the-mill celebrity endorsed products. In fact, there’s real, cutting-edge innovation behind Stuff That Matters’ new range, including 72-hour odour protection and quick-dry, no-stain technology. That’s not all – these scents won’t just make you smell good, they’re also enriched with skin-nourishing ingredients like lion’s mane mushrooms, green coffee, and manuka oil, so you’ll be smelling and feeling your best.

Expect to see the Stuff That Matters range on the shelves of major retailers like Woolworths, Big W, Priceline and Sephora immediately, in spaces that are traditionally dominated by big-name brands owned by foreign conglomerates. The emergence of Stuff That Matters, then, makes for a refreshing change.

This collaboration is far from conventional. Stuff That Matters haven’t just thrown swaths of money at Ponga and Smith to have them rep a brand they’d never actually use. The pair of athletes are going big on breaking down stereotypes and advocating for mental health awareness, which wholly aligns with Stuff That Matters’ goal of redefining masculinity and sparking meaningful change.

Every purchase of a Stuff That Matters product contributes to funding mental health programs for young men through the Man Cave charity. This was critical for both Ponga and Smith in fronting the campaign. “Teaming up with Stuff That Matters, alongside Bailey, feels truly special,” Ponga says. “Mental health often gets sidelined, especially among guys, so being part of the impact they’re having on young men is inspiring.”

“Backing a brand like Stuff That Matters aligns with what’s important for me,” adds Smith. “Looking after your mental health is essential and it’s awesome that buying a deodorant can have an impact.”

Like Smith says, the benefits of Stuff That Matters’ deodorants and body sprays are two-fold – you can smell great and support a worthy cause while doing it.

Take it from us, the sooner that realisation hits, the better. Because once you understand that prolonging your skin’s vitality is achievable, you can start planning an effective, all-encompassing skincare routine – but to do so, you’ll need to find a trustworthy brand.

One such brand is The Aussie Man – which, as you might’ve guessed from the name, is 100 per cent Australian made and owned. The Aussie man combines the best that both nature and science have to offer to create skincare products that revitalise and nourish your skin. With an advanced, anti-ageing formula that utilises natural ingredients like Kakadu plum, natural extracts and seaweed collagen, The Aussie Man offers precisely what you need to complete your skincare routine.

Skincare involves more than a simple lather of lotion in the shower and a batch of sunscreen once the heat cranks up. A holistic routine will be made up of several components that each target a specific aspect of skin health and should be applied at varying times of the day. Luckily for you, The Aussie Man has everything you need.

The Aussie Man’s ultimate serum is a fast-acting revitaliser that will have your skin looking radiant that’s meant to be used in the morning. To achieve its radiant impact, it uses Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamin C from Kakadu Plum, vegetable Collagen derived from seaweed and it’s packed with antioxidants and hydrating agents.

Next up is the anti-ageing elixir, for night time usage. This is a powerful blend of Camellia Oleifera Seed Oil, Jojoba Seed Oil, and Seabuckthorn Kernel Extract. It’s designed to reduce wrinkles, promote a youthful appearance and leave the skin feeling smooth and looking hydrated.

The Aussie Man also offers a daily moisturiser, face cleanser, and an intensive eye cream. But don’t worry, you won’t need to individually fork out for each of these to complete your skincare routine. In the Ultimate anti-ageing skincare bundle deal, you’ll get all five of these formulations in one pack. What’s more, the bundle usually goes for $206, but right now, it’s on sale for $149. Snap that up, and your skin will thank you for it.

In the ‘Get Almost Anything’ campaign starring Bridgerton, Derry Girls and Barbie actress Nicola Coughlan, Uber Eats brings period romance to 2024. When Coughlan, no doubt as enamoured with the genre as the rest of us, attempts to order ‘period romance’ on Uber Eats, the platform holds true to its promise of delivering almost anything by dropping a period-era boyfriend on her doorstep. Initially infatuated, Coughlan soon discovers that some things are best left in the 19^th century – namely antiquated hygiene practices.

See the Nicola Coughlan’s full campaign below.

While period-era boyfriends do come with a charming British accent, as the Uber Eats campaign proves, they also hold some fairly outdated views on the role of women in society, make little to no attempt to hide their foot and ankle fetishes, and exude the unmistakable stink that can only come from a lifelong aversion to deodorant and an unflinching adherence to using chamber pots for ablutions. Maybe some things are best left in the past.

So, perhaps you can’t get everything delivered on Uber Eats. But even still, we’re hesitant to make that point, for while period romance may be off limits, Uber Eats has shown us that Eau de Romance is not. Coinciding with the return of the ‘Get almost anything’ campaign (and Nicola Coughlan) to Australian screens, Uber Eats has unveiled a limited edition boxed set of fragrances, featuring distinctly British scents.

The set includes five fragrances packaged in specially designed and collectible boxes. As for the scents themselves, expect something for every cologne enthusiast, from fresh citrus to earthy woods. Those lucky enough to get their hands on the collection will be treated to notes of oak, lavender, juniper, violet, rose, grapefruit and bursts of citrus.

“These beautifully presented collections are an irreverent ornament to our admission that you can get almost, almost anything on Uber Eats. And while we can’t deliver period romance, we will deliver Eau de Romance for a limited time,” said Channa Goonasekara, Brand Lead for Uber Eats Australia.

Love may not have been in the air for Nicola Coughlan during the campaign, but the scent of love will be for a select few social media users. Uber Eats has made 100 of the limited-edition fragrance packs, and they’re available for free to the first 100 people that send a DM to the Uber Eats Australia Instagram account (@ubereats_aus), with the words ‘Eau de Romance’. Best hurry, they won’t last long.

Thankfully, there is an alternative to living in this expensive, space-consuming dystopia, and Panasonic is providing it. Panasonic’s Multishape is a modular personal care system that essentially acts as an all-in-one hub for your hygiene. With five detachable heads that can be used interchangeably on a single rechargeable battery handle, Multishape allows you to switch your look, rather than your device.

Sustainable adaptability is at the core of the Multishape. Why fork out for five different appliances when you can get the same results with one? Whether you’re after hair shaving, trimming, tidying, or even clean teeth, Multishape has it all in one sleek package.

In its base package, the Multishape comes with a Panasonic beard/hair/body precision trimmer. The four other attachments available for purchase are a beard/hair trimmer, 3-blade shaver, nose/ear/facial trimmer, and last but certainly not least, an electric toothbrush head, rounding out this all-encompassing personal care system.

While all of these attachments are available for purchase, you don’t need to buy all of them. The Multishape allows you to pick and choose the tools you need as your personal style evolves. If you go from a beard/hair trimmer kind of guy to a 3-blade shaver man, the Multishape can accommodate that shift.

Let’s not forget what is perhaps the Multishape’s biggest drawcard. With such immense adaptability in a compact, rechargeable frame, the Multishape is the ideal travel companion. No more cramming every personal care appliance you own into your already overfilled luggage, the Multishape covers all bases – and saves you precious space.

The next evolution in men’s grooming is here. Panasonic Multishape is available now at Shaver Shop, starting from $299.

According to a study by Dentalhealth.org, people who opt for an electric toothbrush have healthier gums, less tooth decay and also keep their teeth for longer, compared with those who use a manual toothbrush.

“Health experts have been speaking about the benefits of electric toothbrushes for many years. This latest piece of evidence is one of the strongest and clearest yet – electric toothbrushes are better for our oral health,” explains Chief Executive of the Oral Health Foundation, Dr Nigel Carter OBE. “Electric toothbrushes, especially those with heads that rotate in both directions, or ‘oscillating’ heads, are really effective at removing plaque. This helps keep tooth decay and gum disease at bay. As the science behind the advantages of electric toothbrushes is mounting, the decision whether to invest in one becomes much easier.”

Unlike their manual counterparts, electric toothbrushes use strong vibrations and automated head movement to more effectively remove plaque and debris from your teeth. These days, many electric toothbrushes go beyond just a powerful clean and offer a bunch of fancy options: think interchangeable heads for sensitive teeth or deeper cleans, a 2-minute timer to let you know when you’ve finished brushing, and even built-in artificial intelligence to help track your brushing progress and offer suggestions on how to improve.

The good news is that you don’t have to shell out a ton of money to find a good, effective electric toothbrush. These are the best electric toothbrushes out there, no matter your budget or brushing acumen.

Best overall

Philips Sonicare 9900 Prestige

If you’re after something that looks good and is a really good investment, this is for you. While it’s definitely on the pricier end ($399 at The Shaver Shop), you really do get what you pay for. Think 62,000 bristle movements (that get your teeth and gums way cleaner than you ever thought possible), a sensitive gum mode, and SenseIQ technology, which automatically adjusts to your brushing style and pressure to give you the best clean possible.

Best affordable electric toothbrush

Oral-B iO Series 5

This electric toothbrush has all the same bells and whistles as some models three times the price, all in an easy to use and understand package. It features a pressure sensor which uses coloured light on the base to alert you if you’re pressing too hard, and the same rotary style head that your dentist uses, which may take some getting used to, but is great at cleaning all the nooks and crannies of your mouth.

Best for travel

Ordo Soinc Lite Electric Toothbrush

This toothbrush is like the best of both worlds. It’s the size and shape of a manual brush, but features the sonic technology and brushing modes you want from an electric brush. It charges via USB-C, which makes it ideal for traveling. The bristles deliver a good, effective clean and the Smart LED indicator remind you when it’s nearly time to charge.

Best splurge electric toothbrush

Philips Sonicare DiamondClean Smart 9700 Electric Toothbrush

If you’re going to invest in an electric toothbrush, this is one of the best out there (with a sky-high price tag to match). At roughly $500 in white or black, it’s one of the most expensive premium electric toothbrushes we’ve seen. But that admission price gets you five interchangeable modes and three intensity settings to fully customise your brushing experience. Interchangeable brush heads specifically designed for things like whitening or tongue cleaning also allow you to get optimal results with minimal effort. Plus the charging travel case allows you to take it with you wherever you go, and know your investment is protected along the way.

Best flossing electric toothbrush

Waterpik Sonic-Fusion 2.0 Professional Flossing Toothbrush

As far as electric toothbrush features go, this one has something none of the others have: A built-in water flossing feature. The all-in-one design allows you to floss (with water) while you brush, saving you time and effort while giving your teeth an unparalleled, fresh-from-the-dentist clean feeling. The brush itself has basic features like two intensity modes and a timer, but the biggest draw is the integrated waterpik. You can brush with or without the floss feature, but why would you ever go without?

Not your average-looking toothbrush, this one is made from silicone, which is known for being more hygienic as well as hypoallergenic. The brush head combines polymer and silicone bristles too, making it tough on stains and bacteria but soft on gums. Its best feature, however, is that it only needs recharging once a year, so there’ll be no clutter around your bathroom sink.
