Well I was going to use this Razor for taking rough off, BUT it’s the Closest Save ever, thankyou ppl at Gillette, if you work it out one blade should last A Month or more it’s not so bad, use cheapies to take rough off first. You’ll be Surprised
These are my goto, using other blades occasionally causes skin blemishes on my neck. Using these definitely helps. Doesn’t completely resolve the issues but much less chance of irritation using these.
I was using the newer Fusion ProGlide but I kept getting cuts and rashes on my chin, and could only use them 3 times before they’d start cutting me too much. I tried these ones, and here is my comparison with the newer Fusion ProGlide:
– They don’t cut as close to the skin as the Fusion ProGlide, so you’ll need to cut slightly more often;
– Because they have less blades you’ll need to rinse the blade a bit more often, during your shave, than the Fusion ProGlide;
– The blades last longer, than the Fusion ProGlide, before they start becoming dull and cutting your face;
– The hydration strips on the top and bottom of the blade also last longer than the Fusion ProGlide;
– Most importantly, if you have sensitive skin, these blades won’t cut you and leave rashes like the Fusion Proglide.
On average, each one of these refills lasted me twice as long as a Fusion Proglide refill.
Don’t last as long as FUSION and are not as close a shave/cut!!
–
But, as there are 2 blades only (which I didn’t realise until someone on a forum pointed this out to me..lol) I guess it is to be expected. Also, as there are fewer blades they do not get clogged up as much
–
However, I do often find it takes longer to have a shave with these blades and they do miss skin/hair more than other blades by Gillette.
–
I will stick to FUSION as my primary blade and use these when my skin is swollen or extra sensitive which happens occasionally. I just don’t think they cut close enough and miss hair too often to be my primary blade, saying that I still think these are loads better than Wilkinsons which I tried at the same time!!
–
Will safely say that Gillette is my favourite blade manufacturer/brand to use, just buy the right ones for the specific type of skin and hair you have!!
