Our intention with the SkinGuard is to provide Gillette’s most comfortable shave while trimming whiskers up to the surface of your skin. Our SkinGuard is equipped with a unique guard feature between two precisely placed blades, to help reduce irritation and prevent discomfort. With this in mind, we recommend trying our SkinGuard again, or if you are looking for a closer shave, try any of our 3 or 5-bladed razors. If you'd like to tell us more about your experience, reach out to us at (800) 445-5388 any time.

We have designed our Gillette SkinGuard razor to stop irritation and is clinically proven for sensitive skin. Because of this, you will not get as close a shave as you would expect from our Fusion family razors with 5 blades. This innovative razor uses SkinGuard technology positioned between two optimally-spaced blades to gently smooth and flattens the skin away from the razor blades during the shave. This ensures that hairs get trimmed at the surface level, with less tug and pull, but sensitive skin stays guarded against irritation. The SkinGuard technology also absorbs the weight from the hand so blades press less on sensitive skin. It also has lubrication before and after the blade to minimize friction during the shave. If you would like to share more about your experience with our SkinGuard blades, please give us a call at (800) 445-5388.
