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.

Robot Skin web site

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.

    Great info there but i’ve a question…Just what music is played in the ad?? It’s really bugging me!

  2. rona says:

    i really like it

  3. Lionel says:

    sounds like aphex twin to me

  4. Laurens says:

    It could be James Holden…

    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….”

  6. Neil says:

    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.

    I think its bob seeger – against the wind…

  8. Rasmus says:

    Raphael Ibanez Di Garayo made it. Check out his website.

  9. Monte Davis says:

    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.

    I can find nothing on this Raphael guy, I LOVE THE SONG! I’m so sad I can’t find it any where!!

  11. Stephanie M says:

    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?
