The Razor Is Unique
The razor is unique. It shaves very well, and you don't feel anything at all, that is, that you are shaving at all. The feeling is incredibly soft and pleasant. Very close to the classic BBS shave.

Do not buy !
The worst blades ever. Last 1 week , when the gel strip disolves is like using a sandpaper on your face.
1 reply from Customer Care team - 7 months ago
We are so genuinely sorry to hear about your very negative experience with your SkinGuard razors. It sounds incredibly frustrating and uncomfortable that the gel strip dissolved so quickly. That is definitely not the performance we want our SkinGuard razors to provide, especially as they are designed for sensitive skin. Your detailed feedback about the short lifespan and the dissolving gel strip is extremely important to us, and we truly regret the discomfort this has caused you. We would appreciate the opportunity to understand more about your experience and how we can help. Please feel free to call Gillette directly at 1-800-445-5388.

Do t buy
I bought this set as it had the vibrating razor which I have used since the y came out. They lasted a long time and worked great. However this version can. It make it through a shave without turning off even with a brand new battery. Once it starts won’t stay on. I am not sure what you changed but this is a huge disappointment. I have neverr had such a poor shave without turning off a Gillette product

I’m really sorry to hear about your experience with the SkinGuard razor. It’s disappointing to hear that the new version isn’t performing as expected, especially since you’ve had such positive experiences with Gillette products in the past. This certainly isn’t the quality we strive for, and I appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We’d love to make it right for you. Please feel free to reach out to us at 1-800-GILLETTE so we can assist you further. Your satisfaction is important to us!

Everyday use
I found the perfect razor for my dad, he likes using multiple times in a week. Blades remove beard without hurting skin after using it twice. Definitely worth using it.

Hurray for paper packaging and a recyclable razor
Rather than just complain about the disturbing amount of plastic packaging in the world, I want to call attention to when a company goes against that convention. I am loving to see that rather than using a wasteful (and difficult to open) blister pack, this razor came in a paper box with a paper tray. Also note that Gillette is among the products you can send in for FREE to have recycled at Terracycle. These steps in favor of the planet matter to me. On top of that, it is an excellent razor.

It's a so-so razor
It supposed to stop irritation and bumps. It does do the job. I had to give it a 3 star rating because the only downside of this razor it doesn’t really give me a close shave compared to the Fusion or Proglide. It’s not too bad but needs to do better in smoothing the skin by not leaving the stubble. I had to do multiple passes.

Very disappointed with this razor, it left some areas less shaved than others. I'm switching back to Schick immediately

Disappointed
I bought this for my husband and he’s not impressed. It doesn’t cut close enough which I thought was fine since it’s sensitive. But he did still get some razor burn. I’m glad I can buy other blades to fit the handle.
1 reply from Gillette team - 2 years ago
Sorry to hear about your husband's experience with Gillette SkinGuard Razor. Our grooming products are all quality- and safety-tested to ensure a close, comfortable shave, so again, we're very sorry this wasn't the case for your husband. We'd certainly recommend that he discontinue further use of these blades. And also, please set them aside, as our Safety Team may want you to return them to us for a closer inspection. Kindly give us a call at (800) 445-5388, so we can gather additional product details plus your contact information and help make it up to you!

5 star razor system
The best razor and cartridge system for sensitive skin. The blades (only 2) do sit slightly further away from the skin then the 3 and 5 blade systems which is why it's skin-friendly, but also means that the shave isnt quite as close. If you need super close shaves, then stick to the gillette fusion. Even with the closest fusion shave at 7am for example, you'll still notice a faint shadow appear by noon. A skinguard shave leaves you with that "noon look" right after the shave, so you have to be ok with that. Sure, you might have to shave everyday but with little to no irritation, its the lesser of 2 evils.

I just wanted to let you know that I love your product. Money is tight so I use each blade as long as I can. I used my last blade for just about eight months.!!! It's the only blade I use. Not only shave my face but also my head.😁

NOT one month
Each blade lasts me ONE WEEK at best. After 6 or 7 days , it starts giving a rough shave. I don’t know why Gillette says 1 month????? It does cut down on cuts but at a high price.
1 reply from Customer Care team - 3 years ago
While we're glad our SkinGuard Razor has reduced the number of cuts you've experienced, we're sorry it's not lasting as long as you were hoping it would. We have quality and safety checks in place to ensure you get a cut-free shave, and as you have already said and know, around a month's worth of shaves from each of your razors. Since facial hair can be as tough as copper wire, we suggest using shaving cream, gel, or foam to soften the hair after trimming it down and soaking it in warm water. This should help soften the hair and prolong the blade, but since we're sure you already knew that, we'd like to hear from you about this and help. Please call us at 800-445-5388.

Exceptional
I was leery of shaving because I am on blood thinners & worry about nicks. This Sensitive Razor was exceptional with no cuts at all. The shave was smooth. My Best Buy!

Feels almost like a Fusion upgrade
I bought this a week ago at a Walgreens, and I have to say I love it! I needed a quick shave before going to work, and it did the job very well. I love how it is extremely easy to clean compared to the Fusion cartridges (it seems there is a small section on each side that collects hair and is impossible to clean because there is plastic behind it, boxing in the hair), and it's even easier to clean than my Gillette FatBoy DE razor. It also seems to be very effective for manscaping. My only issue with it (not an issue with the cartridge itself) is that it should come with a Proglide handle. I like to use the Gillette Slide with my DE and it seems that the Proglide comes with a feature that sort-of automatically does this. I bought the cheapest Proglide I could find just for the handle. It's possible to do this with the default Skinguard handle, but if I'm going to be lazy when shaving, I want to be LAZY. Also, despite clearly being marketed towards a certain demographic, I'm Caucasian and it works just fine on my beard, even with a bit of growth. I will definitely be buying more of these, although I'll probably be keeping my FatBoy in case I run into a situation where I can't find more cartridges.

Terrible experience/ good for nothing
Bought this few days ago, it was waste of money. Doesn't even do the job. I don't have thick beard, tried one blade then second. Literally had to scratch my skin of to even shave my beard. Big big no. Wish I hadn't wasted my 35 buck on gillette. Not goin to buy again.

There's nothing more important to us than the quality of your shave, and your safety. Being designed for those with sensitive skin, and incorporating SkinGuard Technology, some users may find it more difficult to get a smooth shave when compared to our Fusion razors. While we have many quality and safety checks in place, we recommend doing the following for the best experience: Trimming the hair down first, soaking your skin in warm water, applying a pre-shave, and shaving against the grain using light and gentle strokes. Your experience isn't something we take lightly, and we'd like to hear from you about this. Please call us at 800-445-5388.

Worst razor I've ever purchased
Takes multiple passes to shave without a close shave. I unfortunately purchased the 8 pack and will toss the rest. I bought it to use with my fusion 5 handle and have been using the disposable dollar store razors I have. Would not recommend
1 reply from The Gillette Team team - 4 years ago
Above all else, the safety and satisfaction of our users are our top priority. Of course, our users with skin sensitivities are no exception. We designed this razor so that those with those sensitivities can get a smooth shave without having to worry. However, with the SkinGuard Technology, you may need to take additional passes to get the results you're after. First, trim your hair down first, soak it in warm water, apply a pre-shave, and shave against the grain. This may help, but we'd love to hear from you about this, and share other razors that may better suite you and your needs. When you're free, please call us at 800-445-5388.
