Comments about Gillette Venus & Olay Cartridge 3 Ct:
I absolutely love the Venus & Olay shave cartridge, but a three pack of refills runs around $20 and if I'm lucky, I get two shaves from each cartridge BEFORE THE BOTTOM "MOISTURIZING/SOAP" bar becomes so disintegrated or just falls off that it works out to a about $3.30 PER SHAVE (2 shaves per cartridge with three cartridges in the box). That is positively insane and cost unfeasible. I even wrote to Gillette to complain and received a response letting me know that "no one else had complained" and "products undergo rigorous tests to ensure endurance and quality." I don't think that could possibly be true for this product. I still buy the cartridges but I now save them for "special occasions." Four of my friends use this particular blade and also have the same issue with the bottom bar falling off. I keep my razor out of the shower to avoid letting water/steam affect it as I shower, but it makes no difference as the bottom bar STILL falls off within a couple of shaves. For reference, my leg hair is course and does grow in about what feels like a thousand different directions, but I'm not heavy-handed with my razor. I also shave my bikini and underarm areas, both on which, I've had laser hair removal. Overall, I'm not shaving a ton each time I DO shave so why does this product not hold up? It's so frustrating. I just wish Gillette would own the problem and fix it!

Comments about Gillette Venus & Olay Cartridge 3 Ct:
Razor goes on handle easily. Glides easily. The Olay is the best razor, yet! Love razor maneuverability. Doesn't leave any 'sign' you shaved. Smooth & silky skin. It's great b/c I don't knick ankles & knees, anymore.
