Venus

So I want to talk about shaving :) I know, it's a little weird but I feel like so many girls use bad razors and they don't get the best experience they can out of shaving.
I think a lot of girls and women use disposable, cheap razors because better ones with more blades are pretty expensive. However, I have to tell you if you invested in a really good razor you actually be saving money because you wouldn't have to but a lot of disposable ones and you don't have to buy the refill razor things that often.



Venus Embrace

So this is the razor I use and I honestly don't remember how much it costs because I bought it a few years ago. When I purchased it it came with I think two refill razor things and I bought a package of I believe eight with it. Since then I have not had to buy any more refill packages, they have really lasted that long. I usually only replace the blade when I notice that it's dull or if I'm starting to get little cuts. So it has the little pod thing with suction cups on the back to hold the refills. When I notice either one of those things in the shower I just go into pod and open a new blade and replace it right there so I don't get any more cuts or anything.

I want to tell you guys, my mother still uses cheap, disposable razors and so that's what I used when I first started shaving and it was the worst thing ever. Almost every time you shave you need a new one because they don't have many blades and they cause a lot little cuts because they get dull quickly. With the Venus Embrace it is seriously the best shave I could ever get, it has five blades which is why I bought it out of all the Venus razors. It gives the closest and the smoothest shave you could ever possibly imagine. To be honest, I used to use shaving cream and I don't now. I just use body wash to lather up my legs and that is enough for me because my legs aren't really sensitive. I guess if you had sensitive skin on your legs you might want to use a shaving cream but the blades on this razor are so precise that you really don't need it.

Now, I do want to say that Venus does make disposable versions of their razors but you could really save the most amount of money by purchasing a razor/pod set and then a cartridge of refills that would last honestly a couple of years. You might not get that long out of them if you shave every single day but I think that you should not shave EVERY SINGLE day. I know girls that have really bad razor burn and just problems in general with shaving every day like cuts and nicks so I really don't recommend every day shaving. Instead if you have like really fast growing hair try every other day. For me I shave maybe two times a week, my leg hair doesn't grow that fast so I shave maybe every three or four days.

So yea, I really recommend you give this razor a try if you have any issue with your current razor about it being dull or cutting you a lot.
