I first discovered these when they gave them away for free with the Skintimate shave gels. To my horror, I suddenly find they have discontinued the freebies.
So, I had to go looking for this particular razor, because this is the only one I've used that leaves my legs nick free and very smooth. In combination with the Skintimate shave gel, I'm happy!
I mean, it is important not to bleed to death in the shower.
I've also purchased these in a pretty mauve which is so
much more feminine. It does seem it is the exact same triple
blade razor.
If you take one of these razors and "while the cover is still in place" you press down on the top, you will see that the blade is very flexible and it also tilts back and forth. Also has a nice moisturizing strip to allow the blade to slide gently across your most sensitive skin.
Evolutionary performance? YES
Blades that don't clog and rinse easily? YES
Easy-to-remove Blade...Read more

Shave Something,

These razors are excellent. They get my face smooth with less irritation then my electric razor used to. Not only do their triple blades make them better then other disposable razors, but their design makes them easier to use then the Mach III. And a pack is cheaper then the Mach III refill blades as well.My personal preference is the aloe vera coated blades, but any variety is wonderful.

I got one free, either by mail or with my paper (probably the latter). Can't remember because it's been almost 6 months and believe it or not I've been using it for that long exclusively to shave my fairly heavy beard. Seriously, I started using the Schick December 26, 2009 and just retired it. Well, I shave my compete face about every 2 days, so it never gets to "beard" stage. I think the trick is something I learned in a forum around a year ago: Dry your razor immediately after use and keep it dry until you use it again. I rinse thoroughly, tap off the clinging water on my sink, hug it in a dry towel and then remove from my humid bathroom. This prevents oxidation. Yes, it's stainless steel, but even so it does deteriorate in the presence of moisture. I did this for some months with my Gillette CustomPlus Pivot 2 blade disposables (which lasted only ~6 weeks) before starting to use the Schick Xtreme I got as a freebie, and I used the drying technique after each use. I don't have the...Read more
