Gillette Venus reviews and discussion

Gillette Venus is a fantastic brand of shaving products. I like the disposable razors for a quick on-the-go solution. I find they leave my skin feeling smoother than some other disposable razor options and last quite a while.

I don't like the lubricant (Lubrastrip as they call it) and think that the strip on the edges goops up when showering. I like the men's razors better because there is no pink-tax and they don't use the same lubricant.

Best razors! I’ve been using these forever, but the Venus Embrace is hands down the best ones. There’s a difference between the regular and embrace (3 vs 5 blades). Invest in the 5 - they’re a tad more expensive but often on sale at Costco.

Venus women’s razors are my go to razors. I buy the ones with the shave strips to keep my legs moisturized and they’re quality so they don’t nick you like cheap razors do. They last a while so you don’t have to replace them regularly.

I have tried almost every razor on the market and always come back to the old faithful Venus. I have been using it since my teenage years. I have yet to find a razor that is sensitive to my skin at this price point.

Gillette Venus razors give a smooth, close shave without irritation. The handle is comfortable, and the blades last longer than most. The only downside is that they can be a bit pricey, but overall, they provide excellent results. Definitely worth the investment for smooth skin.

This brand is a clear expert and leader in shaving products. I always feel confident that I'll get a good shave that leaves me feeling clean and smooth when I use their products. They have a good variety of basic to premium options.

I really enjoy these razors a lot! The reusable ones have 5 blades and work really well to shave without in-grown hairs. I especially like the ones coated with shaving cream, they really help with slick and super gentle on the skin

It's pretty much the only razor I've ever used or owned since middle school. Nowadays, I like using the comfort glide razors with the soap buffers, and I don't need to worry about buying shaving cream anymore. I do hate that I have to keep buying replacement pieces, and there always seems to be that pink bacteria developing in the plastic cracks of the handle.

I use the Gillette Satin Care Ultra Sensitive Shave Gel for Women whenever I shave and I can not say how much of a difference switching to this brand made. Other shaving creams made my skin itchy after when I started using this product the itching went away. I also allergies to certain scents so I love that it is fragrance free and I don't have to worry about a strong scent bothering my nose.

I’ve been using Venus razors for years because they were always a reliable go-to — smooth shave, easy glide, and designed for women’s skin. But lately? The quality has noticeably gone down. The blades feel dull after just a couple of uses, and the moisturizing strip melts off way too fast. I don’t know if it’s a formula change or cost-cutting, but the razors don’t last like they used to. Shaving my legs or underarms now feels more like a tug than a glide, and I end up going over the same spots multiple times, which defeats the whole point. For the price, I expect better longevity and sharpness. Still decent in a pinch, but not the staple it once was. I've started looking into alternatives like Billie or Athena Club — I think it might be time for a switch.
