The shave is much more pleasant by the pillow, than the normal Venus blades. I use normal no shaving cream or shaving gel, because I'm in the shower too comfortable / lazy to do. For the intimate area and armpits you need not necessarily. The legs I epiliere.
That's why I like the Gillette blades Olay very happy, because shaving is so beautiful (the blade glide smoothly across the skin) and therefore there is much less skin irritation.
What time already the problem was that the gel pads do not last as long.
The shaver depends on me in the shower on the tiles, thus the shaver is always wet. The gel cushion soft so on strongly, then drops the razor down times, it may be that the gel cushions break.
Right now I use a blade already been 2 weeks and she still holds her, although the lower gel pad will adopt slowly (it has already become a good deal less than the upper cushion).
Next problem in the razor: If the gel pads to get away, shaving is very uncomfortable and it scratches on the skin. The blade then you have to replace them.
Thus, the durability is not so much where as you would want it.
From shaving per se, I'm thrilled, but I must be a point deduction, because the gel pad not serve as long as you could use the blade. Without the gel pad of paper and scrapes but is no longer to be used.
For my part I still use the normal Venus blades because I use these for years and am very happy with it.
Every now and then use the blade with the Olay gel pad is great, especially when you might have problems with irritation.
But in the long run to keep the gel pad me just move in too little time.
