This pack of blade refills fits all Gillette SKINGUARD, FUSION5, PROGLIDE, AND PROGLIDE SHIELD razor handles.Experience the confidence that comes with "the best a man can get": a shave that's as easy as it should be-comfortable, smooth, and clean.

Q: How many shaves per cartidge does Gillette expect for this type?
submitted by Antonio83 - 3 years ago
A: The number of shaves you get per cartridge will vary on many factors, and there's no definitive answer. However, we expect around one month's worth of shaves per cartridge.

The Gillette SkinGuard razor blades provide me with a smooth shave, just like my previous Fusion 5 blades. I purchased them at Albertsons for $2.99 and decided to give them a try when I needed a refill. When I used them, I found that they glide effortlessly and cause zero irritation. They leave my face feeling silky smooth, and I'm glad that the Gillette SkinGuard is compatible with other Fusion 5 razors. It's truly amazing!

This razor doesnt shave quite as close as a 4-5 blade system but it's not supposed to. This is the reason its doesn't cause as much irritation (along with some soothing aloe that you can feel). However, the shave is still close enough for those who want to save their sensitive skin. My only criticim is that the blades barely last a week each, so they should include 5 per pack. For this reason, 4 stars instead of 5. Otherwise a top-end product.
Dont shave well.

They don’t shave really well. I like the brand but won’t buy these again.
1 reply from Gillette team - 1 year ago
Melissa, we're very sorry that you're not a fan of our SkinGuard Razor. We want everyone to get a close and comfortable shave, especially those with sensitive skin. These blades are designed for those with sensitive skin to get a close shave while keeping it protected through the help of SkinGuard Technology between the blades. While you can get a close shave with them, by using a pre-shave, warm water, and shaving against the grain, you may not get as close of a shave compared to our Fusion razors. We'd love to hear your feedback and pass it along to our team. Please call us at 800-445-5388.

The blades don't work well. They seem kind of blunt :(
1 reply from Gillette team - 2 years ago
You deserve nothing short of a premium shave, so we're sorry that these blades seem a bit blunt. It may be because our SkinGuard Technology in the SKinGuard Razor may not deliver as smooth of results compared to our other razors, but you should still get smooth results when using warm water, a shave prep, and when shaving against the grain. We'd love to help with your future shaves and learn more about your experience. Please call us at 800-445-5388.

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.

I started shaving in the 1960s. My 1st razor was the Gillette Safety Razor, then the adjustable Safety Razor, through the evolution of the Men's Gellette razors to the Skin Guard, my Razor of choice, as I have very y temperamental skin that is easily irritated. THIS is the best razor I have put on my face!!

Anything here that is being easier on your skin is completely canceled out by the number of passes it takes to get an even marginally close shave. You'll end up irritating your skin more than if you just get a reglar gillette 4 blade. At least it's cheap.
1 reply from TheGilletteTeam team - 3 years ago
Above all else, we believe that everyone deserves a comfortable shave. We crafted our SkinGuard blade so that even those with sensitive skin can get comfortably smooth results. However, due to the SkinGuard Technology between the blades, it may be harder to get a smooth shave faster when compared to our 5-bladed razors. We recommend trimming it down first, and apply a pre-shave and warm water to soften it up. By doing so, when shaving against the grain, the hairs will be easier to remove, and leave you with smooth results. We're truly sorry for your experience, and with the quality and safety checks we have in place, we wouldn't expect this. Because we value you and your shaving sessions, we'd like to hear from you about this and help. When you're free, please call us at 800-445-5388.

I purchased these blades after I first saw them at the pharmacy. I am so glad I did when they say it's for sensitive skin they really mean it. I love these blades and I never wanted to run out so I went back to the store and purchased another 6 packs. Of you have sensitive skin like mine do give these blades a try you will be glad you did and your face will thank you for it.

I didn't want to like this blade since it seemed expensive for 2 blades (plus a trimmer,) but the more I used it, the more I appreciated it. I do have sensitive skin and am prone to ingrown hairs, so I was a bit skeptical. I have much fewer nicks (usually none) with this blade than any other, and I've tried them all.

Did not care for this razor. Shave isn't very close in my opinion.
1 reply from The Gillette Team team - 3 years ago
Everyone deserves to have a smooth and comfortable shave, even those with sensitive skin. Designed for those with sensitive skin, our SkinGuard Razor has SkinGuard patented technology to help flatten the skin away from the razor during the shave to trim the hairs at the surface level which protects the skin and reduces tug and pull. You still can get a close shave though if you soak in warm water and apply a pre-shave while shaving against the grain. We'd love to learn more about your experience, so when you have a moment, please give us a call at 800-445-5388.

If you have sensitive skin these are the way to go. No irritation and no cuts or razor burn.
