Most Helpful Positive Review Stick with the sensitive razors I always buy sensitive razor blades and normally they are great but this time I bought Venus breeze and on every single razor blade the gel pad fell of within a few uses of the razor. Meaning I went through 4 razor blades in 2 weeks because as soon as the gel has gone it is awful to use.
Will be sticking to the sensitive razor blades in the future, just wished I hadn't tried breeze.
Most Helpful Critical Review Terrible design! I have always loved The Gillette Venus razor with changeable cartridges. Recently, I came upon a coupon for the disposables. So, as expected, I purchased them. BAD MOVE! The design is terrible! The handle is longer and thinner making it difficult to grip. Also, the moisture ribbons are SO THICK that I cannot get a close shave on my shins. The moisture ribbons get slimy, too.
However, I am happy to report, I called Gillette about this razor and they offered me a refund or a coupon for a free pack of Venus cartridges. I took the coupon and can't wait to get back to the original razor :-)

I abandoned the fancy razors for a while and was using Soleil disposables. When I got this on a whim I realized I'd been missing out on a really good product. No gory nicks, a smooth shaving experience, and an all-around durable razor. I shave every day and use mine for about a week before swapping them out, but they would probably last much longer.
Very good razor 5
blp2601 from California
Best razor for bikini area! This was the first razor I used for shaving the bikini area and I was scared of getting cuts or a razor burn but I got neither of these things and I am very happy with this razor and will continue to buy it!
Fantastic razor 5
RockStarSuicide from TX
I've used this brand and same razor for years. It has never failed me. I'm 30, but I have diabetic skin (dry, fragile, and sensitive) It's very important that I be careful not to nik myself and we all know how hard that can be. In all the years I've used this razor I've had NO issues at all! It leaves a smooth finish, you don't have to put much pressure, and the blades are perfect! My only complaint is that I wish it still had the wall holder (years ago it came with a wall holder)
Works great 5

The four blades make this razor a winner.
Solid razor, nothing life- changing 5
Mel from Lima, OH
The razors work well and I would buy again.
Razor Handle Molds -- Don't Buy 1
BHun0626 from Elmsford, NY
Bought this razor to after having a Venus Swirl Razor. Within 2 months of purchasing, I noticed mold/mildew growing under the cushion grips of the handle. I tried to clean it out but it won't go away and continues to get worse. Throwing out.
Really close smooth shave no razor bumps 5
Minah from MI
I usually use the diamond smooth refills. But these were just something i grabbed. But these shave better in my opinion. Suuuuuuper sharp. I used one for my upper lip. My full legs My bikini area then my underarms and they were stilll super sharp
They should have never changed the product 1
sfeketa from Fayetteville, NY
I got these new ones and I shaved with it once and am now paying the consequences. I have sensitive skin but there must be some kind of chemical that's making me still break out in a rash and hives on my legs. I'm upset that they switched the formula
Too slippery 2
Marla42 from Sandusky Oho
I've used Venus razors for a long time and I love them even though they can be pricey. My last purchase was the Sensitive razor and I don't like it. The handle is way too slippery and it is hard to get a close shave because of this.
BEST RAZOR EVER 5
Bethany from Indiana
I always used to get razor burn no matter what razors I have used! After using this razor & the sensitive Gillette shaving cream I never have!
Awesome! 5
Angie from California
I have sensitive skin; my legs are highly reactive to shaving razors and shaving in general. This one has definitely been the best at avoiding bumps and redness. My legs have never been as smooth!
They were great! 5
Sierra from Lafayette, IN
The razors were great. At first I was worried about them being disposable and just how long they'd last, but they've lasted pretty long. I shave everyday so I get a lot of use out of them.
1 use and less sharp 3
Rachael from Undisclosed
I have used a few different venus razors before and this one is slightly better. I have super sensitive skin and break out in razor burn a few days after shaving my legs. the blades are sharp and cut very close to the skin. I didnt have any razor burn the first time i used it by the second use the blades were not as sharp and i did get razor burn. Ideally id like to get a few uses out of a blade which is why i gave it 3 stars. the handle is universal for all venus blade refills which is handy.
1 use and dull 3
Rachael from Undisclosed
i had to replace my blade every time i needed to shave otherwise i got razor burn. the price of these and using 1 each time is rather expensive however I do have very sensitive skin. i hoped these would be great and they are but i look for a razor that i can use more then once without breaking out in razor burn
Major Razor Burn 2
Razor Burn no Fun from Florida
Used like I have any other Razor. Caused major Razor burn
Not bad 4
Susan1 from Undisclosed
I used this razor for a few leg shaves and I really did not care much for it. The handle is too wide at the end for my liking but I do like that the grip on it. Makes it easier to shave with no slips.

Not impressed 3
Susan1 from Undisclosed
The shave itself was okay, I have to do a touch-up every couple of days. I do not care for the lubrastrip at all. It seems like it kind of melts onto the blades which makes the shave not as close as I like. I get that it is for glide ease, but I use shaving cream for that. A good razor doesn't need all the extra hoopla, it just does what it's meant to do.

Great shave! 5
Christina2 from Undisclosed
I love this razor and the handles. I have dark course hair and finding a razor that is able to give me a close soft shave is not easy. This razor leaves my skin feeling soft and clean. I get a super close shave over and over with one razor. The handle is light and fits right into your hand. The blade moves easily and doesn't knick at every turn. I highly recommend this razor!

The blades fit nicely on the Venus handle, they give a you a clean smooth shave over and over. You don't have to worry about the razor cutting you. Even with my course hair I am able to use this razor with multiple shaves.

Average shave gel 4
Abby1 from Chicago, IL
I have bought Gillette shave gel for several years, and this is pretty much their typical formula. I'm not sure what makes it good for people with "ultra sensitive" skin, I don't notice too much of a difference to their other shave gels. I don't love the medicinal smell. Nonetheless, not a bad product.
