Gillette Venus Smooth Womens Razor Blade Refills, 8 Count, Lubracated to Protect the Skin from Irritation, Basic, 8 Count (Pack of 1)

I received a Gillette Venus Razor as a free sample and was quite pleased with the product. It has a nice grip and the head bends with the contours of your leg, resulting in the close and clean shave in one stroke as promised on the packaging. The razor comes with three blades and a handy blue strip that fades when it comes time to snap on an easily-changeable refill. The only negative thing I have to say is that I did experience some burn and cuts following my initial shave, which I think may be due to my own personal skin issues. I previously used a cheap disposable razor with only two blades and didnt have a problem because the shave wasnt as close. If you have any bites or uneven skin I recommend proceeding with caution because this razor is not playing around in the quest to give you smooth skin! It also gave me perhaps the best underarm shave Ive ever had. When my free refills run out I think Im going to have to become a paying customer.

I’ve used Venus razors since their inception and I can’t believe how poor the quality is on these refills. They really do rust (in an area that is just as humid as it has been for every other razor I’ve used!) almost immediately. I’ve never seen anything like it.

Been using this for years. Works great.

I dont seem to have sensitive skin since Ive never had razor bumps, so I downgraded to these from the razors with the spa bars since theyre more expensive, and so far so good. They came in good condition, have used them 2 or 3 times no problem :)

Great razor, but geezz are they expensive. I shave my whole body from the side burns down, on a daily basis. I can usually get about 2-3 good shaves out of one razor head. 5 if I push it, but the stubble grows in quick. The hydrating strip lasts to the third shaving, and I typically find that razor does better without shaving cream. Typically the only time the razor works well with Cream is on the very first round, even then I find missed spots, almost like the razor bridged over the hairs. I wager that if someone was to only shave there legs, you could probably get about 10 good close shaves out of one razor head. Im actually trying the Tria Beauty in hopes that I never have to buy razors again. In the event that the Tria doesnt work, I will continue to get these. Heres hoping the Tria works.

I don’t think I’ve ever given a negative review for anything but these razors are awful. I’ve been using the same razor for way too long and I finally bought a replacement pack and omg I would have rather used a year old blade rather than these. I can’t return it so I thought I’d at least write a negative review

Quality isn’t the best but you get what you pay for. Fine for the value

I, too, was startled to get refills that looked different from the ones I already had, with a metal bar on each side of the blades. At first I thought they were counterfeit or something, but it turns out its just a redesign; the ones you get in stores look like this now, too. I do find that they shave less well -- its like the metal staples holding the blades make them more recessed than they were before, so its harder to get a good close shave without irritating the skin. I cut myself more with these than I used to. But Ive adapted to them now, and I get decent results.

I’ve been using these razor blades since they first became available on the market and I’ve never been persuaded to switch because these just work. Long after the moisturizing strip has dissolved (I mean months after), they stay sharp enough for daily use in the shower. Since I appreciate simple, practical design in products, I am glad that these razor blades continue to be available. They’ll give you a close shave on your legs, underarms, and bikini area every day and without leaving a rash or nicking you. Plus they’re not as outrageously expensive as some razor blades that make claims but don’t do the job. I recommend them for people who need razor blades that work well and stand up to daily use.
