4 out of 5 stars Makes me almost want to shave!   December 9, 2008
I don't try new brands too often when it comes to shaving, and I have to admit, I like this product. It took some getting used too, as it is a very lightweight razor. The bathroom razor holder is actually super convenient and sticks to my bathroom wall with no problem at all. It results in a smooth shave with the use of minimum soap, and no nicks yet! Very happy with this product!

2 out of 5 stars Nice for legs, but that's about it.   October 18, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Personally, I'm just not impressed. While it does work on my legs, I wouldn't say it's noticeably more impressive. But for me what really mattered is that it is SO hard to use on my underarms. I have to pull the skin across the bone and then try to shave to get the lower part of my underarm because the thing is too bulky and there is way too much plastic to get a smooth shave. Since I can get a smooth shave with a cheapy razor, I think I'd rather stick with that.


5 out of 5 stars Finally!   September 15, 2008

By far this is the best razor I have used yet. I have extremely sensitive skin and this is just fantastic with no irritation. I was skeptical before I bought it because I have had terrible results with other razors and at a loss about what to do, but I was impressed with the results. Finally a great start to better shaving products.


5 out of 5 stars Finally! A good razor for women!   August 29, 2008

I hate shaving my knees because I never get every little stubbly hair! No matter how much I shave, I still miss. Not so with this razor.
I got this as a sample and I LOVE it. It's smooth and easy and gets the job done, beautifully. My legs feel super smooth and and no cuts! Hurray! I've finally found the perfect razor!



4 out of 5 stars Good blades, narrow handle   August 10, 2008
Since I am a man, I have no experience with this product. However, here is what the wife reported:

"The shave was smooth. It did its job. But the handle feels narrow, like I did not have control over it while shaving. I like the thicker handle of my old razor better. The thingy that sticks to the shower wall is great! It was really handy and never fell off, even in a hot shower. Overall, the shave was fine, but not stellar."

So, to summarize, it sounds like the blades themselves are good and do a good job on the skin (no irritations), but the handle might bother some people. The grip matters the most when moving it against the body, so keep that in mind.

I like the way my wife's legs felt after she used it, so I cannot complain. But since this is not my product, I hope her input will help people decide to use this razor.
