Philips Shave Robot Skin

Philips and Nivea for Men have joined forces to promote the Norelco shaving range in a series of animated steamy Sci Fi film noir advertisements. The Robot Skin advertising campaign, unrolling at www.robotskin.com, features the Philips Norelco Moisturizing Shaving System used by a female ‘skin robot’, along with Sergeant Will Harris, Officer Susan Hart, Melissa. The storyteller weaves a yarn around his efforts to gain the services of the skin robot for the ultimate fantasy, being shaved in the shower.

  1. I’m interested in knowing what the music is in a different Phillips Electronics ad running in America. It is the one that has a French song and the ad shows all the Phillips products used from dating through to marriage, to having a baby and raising a family. It is driving us crazy trying to figure out what the song is, or what the French words mean. It goes something like this: “Tout les choses jolie….”

  2. It sounds similar in style to BT’s album “This Binary Universe”. The DVD included with the album features a robot that looks very similar to the Robot Skin one too.

  3. I don’t want to dispel the fantasy, but who is the actress or model playing the alluring robot? does she have a website? I would like to know because as a child. I thought they really made working models for things like cp-30, r2d2, the robot in Johnny Sokko (I saw him when I was just 7 yrs old). when I found out they had people in suits. it made want to see them. I guess as a comparative.

  4. Has anyone found the information on the French song mentioned above? I live in France and my family back home keeps asking me about it and what it means, but I have never heard the song. Anyone know where I can see the commercial or hear the song?
