Close shave with no cuts!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received these blades as part of the viewpoints review program. Compared to other blades I have used these measure up really well and are in fact better then most I have tried. I was not aware of these before trying but after trying I would definitely purchase these! I loved how close of a shave I received and I did not really get any nicks or cuts as these blades were so easy to use while shaving. They are also very easy to replace as they release with the push of a button and just snap on with a quick click so very easy. Finding it easy to shave with these also helped me reduce my shaving time which is what I liked most about these. I would definitely recommend these for purchase for anyone looking for a high quality blade that's easy to use.

my new favorite

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Gillette SkinGuard Razor is one of the best razors i have ever used. It gives a close shave, no nicks no razor burn with a sturdy handle. My skin was super soft and my shave lasted longer than normal. Although i am a Gillette fan i had not used this particular razor but i will be from now on.

Feels almost like a Fusion upgrade

I bought this a week ago at a Walgreens, and I have to say I love it! I needed a quick shave before going to work, and it did the job very well. I love how it is extremely easy to clean compared to the Fusion cartridges (it seems there is a small section on each side that collects hair and is impossible to clean because there is plastic behind it, boxing in the hair), and it's even easier to clean than my Gillette FatBoy DE razor. It also seems to be very effective for manscaping. My only issue with it (not an issue with the cartridge itself) is that it should come with a Proglide handle. I like to use the Gillette Slide with my DE and it seems that the Proglide comes with a feature that sort-of automatically does this. I bought the cheapest Proglide I could find just for the handle. It's possible to do this with the default Skinguard handle, but if I'm going to be lazy when shaving, I want to be LAZY. Also, despite clearly being marketed towards a certain demographic, I'm Caucasian and it works just fine on my beard, even with a bit of growth. I will definitely be buying more of these, although I'll probably be keeping my FatBoy in case I run into a situation where I can't find more cartridges.

Good for travel

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's been a long time since I've used anything but my traditional double-edge safety razor. And the last time I used a razor from Gillette was many years ago, and it was the Sensor Excel. I was a little skeptical of this product -- its angles were odd to me. It felt too light as I used it, so I was unsure how much pressure to apply to avoid cutting myself. It shaved pretty well, even after a few days of growth, at least when shaving "with the grain". Shaving in other directions seemed to pull more than my normal razor, but it got the job done. This seems like it might be a good razor for travel since it would be permitted in a carry-on bag and seems like it might be a better value in the long run than cheap disposables.

reply from The Gillette Team

We want you to have a great shave with each of our blades, Terry, so we're sorry to hear that this wasn't the case with our new SkinGuard razor. As with all of our blades when shaving, be sure you're washing the area with warm water and mild soap to help remove natural oils and sweat. This also makes hair softer and easier to cut. The best time to shave is right after a hot shower! Apply plenty of shaving gel, foam or cream to soften the beard hair and reduce friction. Also, be sure to shave in the direction of hair growth for a more comfortable shave, or against the direction of growth for an even smoother shave. Because you were experiencing pulling when shaving against the grain, we'd like to talk with you more about your experience. When you have a moment we hope you will give us a call at (800) 445-5388. The details you provide will be shared with our Quality team.

Okay but has flaws

I purchased this razor a week ago. I shave in the shower daily and I have found this razor to be lacking in the following two areas. 1) The handle of the razor is poorly shaped and slippery making it difficult to hold when wet. 2) The white collar around the blade(s) dries out and if the razor is placed with it down on a surface it sticks to that surface. When you try to lift the razor the white surface adheres and rips off making the blade dangerous to use any further. The razor itself would be very good if these areas were addressed.

Highly Recommend!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great blade. Such a smooth shave. Very gentle on my skin. It rinses out easily and completely. I have eight days (shaving daily) of use on this blade and it shaves just like the first shave on it. I highly recommend this blade.

Best Razor for sensitive skin

Honestly, I gave up on razors in general. I always got razor bumps no matter what. Tried different creams and lotions. Nothing helped. Would take 3 days to heal and by then the stubble was out of control. Switched to electric for years. Then skin guard came out. I figured I give it 1 last try. Being it’s easier to travel with a razor than an electric shaver. Amazing shave! Obviously stays smoother longer than electric. But zero irritation! I’m hooked! Seriously, great job

Close Shave

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Gillette SkinGuard Blade was sent to me in exchange for my honest review. My wife loved the close shave that the SkinGuard blade gave me. I was really impressed with it as well. It also soothed my skin with the lotion that was on it. The Gillette SkinGuard Blade is now my go-to razor.

Great Blades!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The blades for this razor were excellent! It glided over my skin easily and did not pinch or pull. My skin felt great after shaving and I did not experience any razor burn or ingrown facial hair. I would purchase these blades in the future and would likely recommend them to others.

Gillette has risen to the top in men's razors!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The first time I used this blade it did not feel like I was shaving, and yet the blade was working. You do not feel the blade. The guard is top notch. It is the best, smooth shaved I have ever experienced. This is a magic shave!
