Gillette Venus Swirl Razor Review

28 Comments

Sponsored Post

It’s time for a little Springtime defurring (yep, new word). LOL I know I can’t be the only person who doesn’t shave her legs during the Winter. Since Spring is here I’m starting to stock up on razors and my favorites for my legs are Gillette Venus razors. Call me strange but I use different razors for my legs than I do everywhere else. Don’t judge me…we know I’m special.
 Gillette Venus Swirl Razor and Gillette Venus Olay Violet Swirl Shave Gel
Anywho, Gillette came out with a new Gillette Venus Swirl Razor with a flexiball and that made me a tad curious. I wondered if it was easier to handle and how close the shave would be. So when SheSpeaks offered me the opportunity to sample then line, I was all over it. They even sent a shaving cream. Yeah! Score!

The Gillette Venus Swirl is the first and only razor with a flexiball. The felxiball does not have a 360 pivot but it slightly pivots to get into the tricky areas. This razor makes shaving behind your knees a little easier. I don’t feel like a contortionist trying to shave when I use this razor.

I will add there is something different about the Swirl because I could only pass over an area once without nicking myself. I was so used to having to do two passes with my other Venus razors but this has a one-and-done style blade.
Gillette Venus Swirl Razor Blades
The Swirl has five contour blades that adjust to curves and a water-activated MoistureGlide serum that allows the blades to glide smoothly over skin. For an even smoother shave, the Venus Swirl has a MicroFine comb that glides hair to the blades.
Let’s chat about the Gillette Venus Olay Violet Swirl Shave Gel. Okay, the name is a little long but I love the gel. It is rich and thick…it stayed on the back of my hand while I took all of my pictures for this post without moving! It smells like a dream and I didn’t have a reaction to the fragrance. Sensitive skin issues…

Overall:

The packaging for the razor and shave gel are both gorgeous. You know I love anything purple.

I would buy this version of the Venus by Gillette. I love that I only have to do one pass and it takes less time to shave these big ole legs of mine. I have better things to do than to spend time shaving my legs and I’m sure you do too. My only issue was the nicking if I passed over an area more than once but I had to recondition myself and pay more attention to where I was shaving.

The gel was great and it doesn’t leave me with a sticky residue after I rinse my legs off. It was easy to rinse out of the razor without leaving any buildup that can dull blades quickly.

My love of the Venus line continues. I think the Gillette Venus Swirl Razor is my new go-to razor. You can pick up the razor and shave gel from your local Walmart.

    I have never heard of this product before today. The flexural looks like it would be wonderful for areas that aren’t smooth like my knees.

    NO I haven’t tried the new Venus Swirl yet but I like the flexiball, think it would be great for those hard to shave places like knees and ankles.
