Gillette Venus & Olay Razor Review



This is my second review from my Love VoxBox from Influenster

My first impression of this razor is the packaging was kind of bulky. The packaging was super easy to open though, which is nice! I always hate trying to get a packaged opened and it doesn't want to. I like that it came with a holder to stick in your shower to keep the bars from staying wet from laying it down. The razor itself is a pretty color and reminded me of spring. It also seems pretty sturdy. 


The Product Details
  • Venus’ five-bladed razors shave you close and adjust to women’s curves for a smooth and comfortable shave, even over tricky shaving areas like knees and ankles.
  • Olay Moisture Bars contain skin-enhancing elements found in Olay products: Petrolatum helps lock in skin’s moisture for less dryness and Glycerin helps offer that goddess glow! Just wet the razor to release a light lather – no separate shave cream required.
  • As with most Venus razors, new Venus & Olay also features a rounded, pivoting head designed for women’s curves, and a soft-grip ergonomic handle for confident control, even in wet and soapy environment





My thoughts:

Pros: The moisture Olay bars are amazing. You don't need any shaving cream and your legs are left feeling silky smooth. The blades gave me a close shave without the nicks and cuts! This says a lot to me since I always seem to get a little cut every time I shave but, with this razor I didn't have any. This razor is super easy to use and I noticed it didn't take quite as long to shave with this razor than what I normally use. The blades are still sharp even after using it a lot.

Cons: The moisture Olay bars seem to disappear pretty fast. So if you fall in love with the razor it could become a tad pricey with the refills.



A refillable Venus & Olay with one replacement cartridge sells for approximately $8.99-$10.99. Packages of three replacement cartridges are available for about $14.99 - $19.49.
