Review on Get a Close and Smooth Shave with Gillette Venus Extra Smooth Swirl Razors by George Matthews

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Great grip but blades are not for everyone

Great grip. It has a slightly rubbery texture and is very comfortable to use. The head swivels left and right slightly, making it great for the contours of your legs and the like. But the blades are a little questionable. Personally, I don't have a problem with it, but one or the other might be bothered by a very large purple ring of moisture. You have to store these blades face up or the purple ring so they get sticky and stick to surfaces so I wouldn't recommend them for travel. Many other reviewers also say that these blades are particularly irritating to their sensitive skin, but I haven't experienced that, so if you're like me and lucky enough to have skin that isn't bothered by shaving often, you should be fine be. . My only issue with blades is that they get clogged with hair fairly easily. However, if the blades are a problem, you can always replace them with a Gillette Venus blade. I'd recommend it if you don't have sensitive skin and don't mind storing it face up, or if you're looking for a grip that's a little more flexible and easier to use.
