Great product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Gilette refill was pretty smooth and comparing to another refill it was gliding better. I was not aware that Gilette skinguard razer and refill are available. It is better than my two blades razer and goes on smooth. the only reason I did not give 4 or more was my refills were missing from package. I would definitely buy this again and I high recommend this to anyone who wants nonirritant and close shaving.

Didn't work for me.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The handle has a great feel in the hand. The gel on the blades does feel good on the face. However this product only having two blades doesn't work for me. I only shave every week or two. With longer hairs this razor is very inificient. Took way to Long to shave. I had to switch to my normal razor half way through shaving because I didn't have the time to kill using this double bladed razor. I'm sure I'd use it on the regular if it came in a four blade system.

Becuase our SkinGuard blades are designed to stop irritation and is clinically proven for sensitive skin, you will not get as close of a shave as you would with our Fusion5 family blades. It is important to remember if you go a while between shaves, you will want to be sure that you're rinsing the blades frequently. If you would like to share more about this with our Quality teams, we welcome you to give us a call at (800) 445-5388.

Yikes

I lather with lots of warm water & shaving gel, and gently glide the razor across my skin, yet this still happens AND the razor doesn’t even get all the hair off. Unless there’s something wrong with my process, not sure this razor is right for my sensitive skin. It gets a lot of the hair off, but not all of it.

Definite Buy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This razor hit the head on talking about guarding your skin. I have shaved my head and my face with this razor and am extremely pleased with the results of it. The two blade system with the guard in between is a completely different change in the most normal direction that razors head these days. I have extreme issues with razor burn and bumps and this razor caused neither of those issues for me. It was an extremely comfortable shave with no tugging or pulling and very easy rinsing with the space available between everything. This product for me will be a repeat purchase for sure!!

Improvement over my old Mach-5!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just finished using this new razor for the last week or so. It's somewhat of an improvement over my Mach-5 version. Similar but it seems to not irritate as much. Maybe the slight lubricant that have with it is helping with that. I'd buy this again!

So much better than other blades it's ridiculous.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After using these blades and seeing the type of completely razor burn free, close shave they give, these are a must buy. I get pretty bad razor burn and irritated skin from a number of different blades, these gave the smoothest and closest shave I've ever had. Perfect if you're tired of razor burn.

New Go to razor for sensitive skin

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used the Gillette SkinGuard Razor for the first time hoping it was going to do as promised and give a clean shave with out irritating my sensitive skin. It delivered its promise 100% now I don't have to plan my shaves around how long it takes my skin to calm back down. I recieved the Gillette razor free in exchange for my honest review

Great Smooth Shaving. 2 blade system requires many

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] OK. I've used this numerous times. Here are the things I like. The idea of shaving for those like me who have sensitive skin, this is a fantastic idea! It's extremely smooth when shaving. I really like it. The blades are far enough apart that so far they do not fill up and get clogged between the blades, which is a big plus to me. It never has dragged or felt like it pulling or scraping when using. The downside. It only has 2 blades. At least for me, I have a very thick beard and the two blades just don't seem to do the job very well for me. I have to go over the same areas multiple times and the blades still seem to leave uncut whiskers. If there were more blades perhaps along with the smoothness of the shaving, maybe that would make the shaving experience better, I'm not sure.

We are sorry that you were not satisfied with the closeness of your shave with the Gillette SkinGuard. This razor is designed specifically for men with sensitive skin to deliver Gillette’s most comfortable shave. SkinGuard is equipped with a new guard feature between the blades to reduce irritation and is optimized for those who are willing to accept a less close shave in order to experience more skin comfort. With this in mind, we recommend you try the product again. If you are still not satisfied with the product, we recommend trying one of our 5-bladed Fusion razors which delivers our closest shave and is still comfortable.

Great for Sensitive Skin

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have especially sensitive skin, and I sometimes avoid shaving because I know if I do it too often, there's a good chance my skin will bleed, or at the very least, develop skin bumps. I needed something that was suitable for sensitive skin, and I learned about the "Gillette SkinGuard Razor". This item is specifically designed for sensitive skin so it sounded like the perfect razor for my needs. I decided to order one to test the item out. What makes this Gillette Razor unique is it has a SkinGuard in between the blades. The guard helps to flatten my skin so it doesn't become irritated. The blades are spaced apart at an optimal distance to reduce the amount of pulling and tugging I experience while shaving, which has eliminated my bleeding issues. Before, my skin felt rough and raw due to shaving, and now it feels smooth. My wife loves it! If you have sensitive skin, and you're looking for a new razor, I absolutely recommend trying out the Gillette SkinGuard Razor. Nothing else worked for me before it. Now I can shave everyday and look presentable, and my skin is smooth and bump free. I'm so thankful I learned about this product.

Waste of money

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a regular user of Gillette razors I was excited to try a new razor. I'd hoped the new SkinGuard would provide a close yet comfortable shave. I wasn't impressed. The shave wasn't close and the excessive lubrication was incredibly slimy. I tried it for a week, hoping the shave would improve. It did not.

Our Gillette SkinGuard razor is designed 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. As for the lubrication strip, be sure you're storing it blade up so the lubrication strip doesn't touch a surface. Also, be sure that it is stored somewhere it can completely dry. If you would like to share more about your experience, please feel welcome to give us a call at (800) 445-5388.
