A phenomenal commercial! Everyone wants skin as soft as a baby's bottom, right? Wilkinson let the metaphor inspire their latest razor commercial in which a husband grows envious of the pampering his wife is giving their child. In an attempt to win back her affection, he uses his secret weapon -- the Wilkinson Quattro Titanium razor. The computer-animated commercial goes on to show baby and daddy duke it out in a fight for kisses.
"There was a time when babies had a great life," the commercial begins. "The softess of their skin got them all their mom's attention. Then one day, fathers discovered a special weapon... from now on, fathers and sons can fight on equal terms. Men can now take revenge and win back their wives."
