The Best Christmas Gifts 2014: Braun Beauty Ambassador Jessica Alba on Why Getting It Right Matters

KRONBERG, Germany. - Saturday, December 13th 2014 [ME NewsWire]

(BUSINESS WIRE) Now is the time to get the right present for the loved ones in your life! As women, our expert listening skills and that classic feminine intuition often give us a great idea of the ‘kind’ of gift friends and family will adore. Braun Beauty Ambassador Jessica Alba knows that when it comes to getting the right gift only the best will do.

Family means a lot to Jessica and as Mom of the year 2014 she knows that there’s a certain pride in getting a gift that’s just right, a gift that is the perfect fit, so that “wow” moment when it’s unwrapped for the very first time lasts forever. To find out more we’ve spoken to Jessica about what makes a good present for her.

Q. Jessica, this year you’ve been awarded with the title “Mom of the Year” and you are seen as a role model for women all over the world. Now Christmas is coming super soon. How important do you think gift giving is as the “glue” for a family and for a relationship?

A.“Family occasions like this are really important for every family. It’s a great feeling to find that perfect gift for the ones you love, whether it’s for your Mom, your sister, your husband, your kids or your closest friends. I think getting a present right is always about finding a good balance between creativity, knowing the needs of the person you want to give a present to, and if the present itself stands for something.”

Q. You are the ambassador for Braun Beauty, for the Dare to Break Free campaign. This campaign is about inspiring others. Now, a lot of Braun products are actually not bought by people for themselves, but for others, as presents. Would you consider a Braun product for your loved ones?

A. “I’ve learnt a lot about the brand and its products, and I like them, because they inspire people to do cool things, like trying out the latest hairstyle. The performance is really good, and I like the Beauty products for myself, so why shouldn’t I also give them to others? I like my man well groomed, and I want it to be a good experience, so yes, I think that a shaver can actually be a great present. It’s something that lasts for years, he can use it every day, and it’s something he genuinely needs.”

Q. What if people say that this is dull, just going to a shop and getting an electronic device?

A. “I don’t think it’s dull at all! I think that the products you use for the beauty of your hair, the beauty of your legs, or on your face, are almost an intimate companion. Take an epilator – I love the results, but at first I had to try it for myself. Now that I know how good this product is I can share it on. The shavers I obviously didn’t try, but I trust that the Braun brand stands for quality; I don’t want to get anything close to my man’s face that I wouldn’t believe in in terms of safety and performance. And on top I like the designs of the Braun shavers. The male line-up is simply a statement, it’s pretty iconic, a grooming product that he can really be proud of.”
