Didn't do it for me

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used Gillette disposable razors for years, so was excited to try this razor after receiving it free in exchange for writing a review. I won't be changing razors any time soon. This one just didnt do it for me. It seemed to miss large areas while shaving and didn't allow for a precise shave up to my hairline (which I can achieve with the disposable razors)

We're sorry to hear that our SkinGuard Razor was not giving you the control you hoped for. Like our Fusion Razors, the SkinGuard blades have a precision trimmer on the front side of the cartridge. This is designed to help get into those hard to reach places and help five those straight lines around sideburns, as well as your hairline. It is also important to remember to rinse your blades frequently while shaving as this will keep the blades clear and allow a smooth shave. If you would like to share more about your experience, please give us a call at (800) 445-5388. Our Gillette specialists are here to help.

Comfy, yes. Effective, no!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So, yes - the SkinGuard blade felt great on the first pass. Much better than any other Fusion blade, in fact. But... As one might expect that comfort came at the cost of the closeness of the shave. After the first pass, it still looked like I had my full 5 o'clock shadow. After the second, it looked like I'd used an electric shaver rather than a blade. It took until the fourth or fifth pass to get a close enough shave that I was moderately satisfied (even tho it still wasn't all that close), but by then my face was even more irritated than when I use my regular Fusion blades. If you're cool with stubble from the jump, then this blade will definitely protect your face! If you, like me, choose to shave with a blade so you get a nice close shave that will last you thru the day without looking homeless then this isn't for you.

While we're happy to learn the shave was smooth on the first pass, we always want you to have close, comfortable shaves. Your experience certainly isn't one that we expect. This razor is designed specifically for men with sensitive skin to deliver Gillette’s most comfortable shave. SkinGuard is equipped with Gillette’s sharpest, most advanced blades and is optimized for those who are willing to accept a less close shave in order to experience more skin comfort. If you would like to share more about your shaving experience, please call us directly at (800) 445-5388.

Interesting Concept Didn't Notice a Difference

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This razor is designed to limit skin irritation I believe by replacing some blades with plastic strips. I didn't notice any discernible difference between this and my Harry's razor with 4 blades. Maybe if you have extra sensitive skin you would be able to notice a difference but I wouldn't switch from current razor to use this one.

Excited then Very disappointed

I have been using Gillette razors since I was 10 years old and have sensitive skin. I was very excited to see the new product and purchased it immediately. Unfortunately it does not look up to the advertisement. It does not shave closely and has in fact irritated my neck and chin. I’ve been using it now for two weeks and I’m already on my second blade. I do not have extremely course hair and was surprised by my shave. Hopefully this product will improve with customer reviews. Unless of course I was in fortunate to receive faulty product.

We always expect our products to get to you in the best possible condition. We have a great team of people that work hard every day to assure every product that leaves the factory is up to Gillette spec and will give a great shave. Here are some tips to help get that shave we expect, wash 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. We very much appreciate your loyalty so if you would like to share more about your experience, please give us a call at (800) 445-5388.

Smooth Shave!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Gillette SkinGuard Blade was definitely a winning blade and produced great results and left my skin feeling smooth without any irritation, bumps, or anything else as I've seen happen when using the past blades. I had seen the Gillette SkinGuard Blade when shopping but I had never tried it and wish I had. Now I'll never go back and have already recommended it to friends and family!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best razor I have used in some time. The Gillette SkinGuard Razor Has a very comfortable handle. The shave is phenomenal as it glides so smoothly And gently across my face. Forget about shaving bumps,this is so gentle to my Skin that I had absolutely none. I would absolutely recommend this to everyone. Have Already told some of my friends to buy it.

Dependability and use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The use of the Gillette SkinGuard Blade was easy and very dependable in that it did what it said it would. When shaving, it did not cut my face or hesitate. It was a slippery glide; very smooth. It definitely did the job. Removing and replacing the blade was also very easy. I recommend using this product, as will I.

Great SHave

Have used this razor now for about 4-5 months. It's by far the best shave I've ever had in over 55 years of shaving. The blade glides over my heavy beard so smoothly, without any irritation, nicks or cuts. I don't understand the reviews that say the shave is not as close. Mine is great, very close and smooth. Don't change anything about this razor or blades. Outstanding!!

Reliable, same old Gillette!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's great for occasional shaving, but it wears relatively quickly for every day use. I didn't notice a ton of difference from regular Gillette razors, but it's a quality product that gets the job done. I would buy this product again.

Smooth glide for Sensitive skin

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This razor was used on my face and body. I have sensitive skin and not all razors cut it with my skin's needs. This razor did not xause any razor bumps, cuts, or chafing. I liked the feel of the handle because it has a sturdy grip and a contoured handle. The trimmer is also a plus because it gives a precise trim for shatp edges. I would definitely recommend this to someone who has sensitive skin.
