Billie draws rave reviews for delivering a consistently close, irritation‑free shave with sharp five‑blade cartridges, a comfortable grippy handle, and the clever magnetic shower holder; many long‑term users say it’s the best razor they’ve tried. Reviews also flag drawbacks: lubricant strips can get goopy or leave residue, some report blades dulling faster or quality declines over time, a few experience razor burn, and the wall mount or blade connection occasionally fails.

  • Billie Razors are the queens of a smooth shave. They offer high-quality performance, leaving your skin silky and luxurious. Plus, their vibrant colors add a fun and sassy touch to your shaving routine. Get ready to say goodbye to dull razors and hello to a shaving experience fit for a diva!

  • Easy peasy just make sure you know when your order is going through. I had a backup of razor blades and shaving lotion because I had not needed the products but they kept coming. All you have to do is log on and skip your shipment or set your schedule. Eventually I did set my schedule. I like the shaving lotion and the razors. I don't have anything to complain about. I know that have added a bunch of products since I became a member. I like that I always have fresh razor blades and lotion on deck. For a busy human, this is a good way to go. I know they market to females however dudes could use them too. I don't find the razors or cream to be gender specific. My razor handle is a bluey type color. I like the magnet in the handle, too. It's one of the only things I put back in it's spot when I take a shower. ADHD strong. I may not put much back but the razor has its place.

  • While I will admit I fully bought these razors because of their aesthetic look, cute packaging, and branding, I have continued to subscribe and use this razor for years. The razors have a good blade and are good for traveling with their changeable blades and travel cap. I like that they have made their packaging more sustainable and recyclable over the years. While I do love the razors, I have used their shaving cream and do not think it's anything special or better than other shaving creams.

  • I like the razor, it was a free gift in a make up subscription bag. Have yet to reorder, but it's a nice razor.

    Received a free product from Billie
  • I used Billie’s razors with a subscription for about a year. I liked the look and feel of their razor. Price is fair for what you get. I wish sustainability was a company priority.

  • I didn't find the razor to be anything super special. I do appreciate they try to be conscious of their body care ingredients and that they encourage body positivity. I just prefer other razors over this.

  • I’ve been a Billie customer for several years now. Super glad I found this product. I don’t buy conventional razors at the store. I easily get two uses out of each razor.

  • I have used the razor and it's a good razor for legs but it didn't wow me and I have some issues with it. Because of the big razor head, I don't find it great for intimate areas, and I don't like all of the plastic and that you can't recycle the blades. I think with all of the push for eco-friendly products, this brand is all plastic wrapped in plastic and that is why I stopped using them. I can say the blades lasted a long time and never gave me irritation or bumps which I appreciate, but going forward I want shaving products with much less plastic waste.

  • Great range of products! I didn’t realize that I was allergic to previous brands of razors because they were nickel or other cheap metal. Billie is the only brand I’ve used that doesn’t irritate my skin, and I can use their razors on wet or dry skin! I love the fact that you can choose your own color of a razor handle and their monthly subscription is great too for getting replacement blades shipped to you as often as needed. Overall, very satisfied with their products.

  • I've been using Billie for years! I stopped for a little bit and it was very apparent Billie is the best. It's easy to manage your subscription and all of their products are fantastic - razors, floof, wipes, shaving cream!

  • Been using these razors for years! So affordable & work wonderfully! Thank you!!

  • At first, I loved my Billie razor. I loved everything about it, and even bought a glow-in-the-dark handle because it was cool. However, about 6 months into my subscription something changed drastically. For one, the razor was nicking me extremely often but was almost too dull to shave the hair. They also changed the formula of the shaving bar around the blades. For the first 6 months, I had a very close shave with no irritation whatsoever. Whatever they changed I'm their formula did not make my skin happy at all. Plus, the head became sticky and slimy with barely any water. However, as it dried, it would crack or become rough for the next shave. I switched to Athena Club and made my skin much happier. The plastic waste was also extreme. I don't understand why shaving clubs have to use so much plastic packaging!

    With the new formula, it may irritate your skin. The blades will nick your skin. If they would change their formula and blades back to the original design, they would be so much better.

  • I swear by my billie subscription. Have been using for 4+ years and they continue to improve the product. Price is excellent ($8 for 4 refills) and the packaging is cute & sustainable!

  • I was super excited to try Billie after hearing rave reviews about their razors, especially when it comes to those prone to razor burn. It helped that the branding was on-point. I'd never used a subscription service for anything and found it to be useful, though I definitely have an entire closet-full of new razor heads because both my wife and I were getting deliveries waaay too often (not to the fault of Billie, but rather our laziness to change subscription frequency). Unfortunately I didn't notice a huge difference compared to store-bought brands so I ultimately decided to stop my subscription with them. I appreciated how easy it was to suspend our subscription, and that I was able to do it online & without having to speak to a person on the phone.

  • I've been using Billie for years, but I recently cancelled - several times I've had issues with their razor blades not being usable and having to get a re-delivery, so products have gone to waste. I've gotten razors delivered that were completely filled with goop inside the cases, razors with outer edges that are pointed instead of smooth so they scratch my skin, and razors with outer edges raised so high that the blade can't even touch my skin. I've literally spent time trying to cut off / shave the outer portion of the blades so that I could use them instead of throw them away, but it's been impossible. After at least 3 poor deliveries, I've cancelled my subscription.

    Fix your manufacturing process so that my razors aren't a mess when I receive them, and so less product goes to waste.

  • Love the razor, but the body wash recently changed sents, and I hate it.

    Feedback

    Go back to the old body wash formula!

  • I have a Billie razor and overall I like it, but I'm not sure it's different than any other razor. I do really love the shower holder it comes with and the travel case you can buy separately. The replacement razors are cheaper than drug store ones, but they send way too many and it's hard to unsubscribe/resubscribe

    Feedback

    make it easier to choose your razor head replacement frequency and make it easier to stop/start subscriptions

  • Loved this brand in the beginning.

    Feedback

    They have changed the gel/shaving bar so it doesn't come with very much and results in a rougher shave after just a few uses. It used to last munch longer and was such a great experience.

  • I didn't know that I could like a razor this much! Billie produces a sleek product, a razor blade that's sharp and works on even the most stubborn stubble, and the color combinations of the products are cute :)

    Feedback

    I would love to give Billie 5-stars, but the oversized outer packaging is wasteful, and I'm unsure if any of the packaging or the plastic handle is recyclable. More information on sustainability would be great!
