Braun’s new NEVO electric shaver debuts a new top of the line option, leapfrogging their existing (already quite good) options. We’ve been testing it for a week and are impressed with how well it performs. A water-formed stainless steel unibody elevates the look and feel of the waterproof shaver, and its a first in the category. A smart processor ensures optimal performance and monitoring for the best shave possible. It comes with a stand that both cleans and charges the shaver, and also includes a travel case that serves as a charger (though doesn’t clean it). It debuts the brand’s new AeroTouch tech, designed to offer the most precise shave possible. The shave head (which needs to replaced approximately once a year, features Diamond Sharp Blades and two Ultra Gliding Foil sections—everything you need to cut longer hairs first, raise flat hairs, and get the closest shave possible; its pop up trimmer tackles sideburns and other touch ups. The 7-in-1 NEVO Care System cleans, dries and lubricates the shaver. It’s a premium option for those who demand the best and the most from their shaver.

If you’re a plant or typography lover, these botanical seed packets hit that sweet spot. The seeds correspond with every letter of the alphabet, from Aster to Zinnia, and the designs feature a unique color palette and typographic style. Each packet contains multiple seeds, sowing instructions and fun background info on the typeface used in the design. It’s hard to choose a favorite, but we’re leaning towards Nigella with its typeface inspired by the Mexico 1968 Olympics logo design.
