I have sensitive skin and get other wet razors themselves with shaving cream skin irritation after shaving my armpits. This is the only razor that I have discovered, in which this is not so. By gel pad it slides very smoothly over the skin. Shaving is no longer necessary, I use instead additionally a little shower gel. The gel pads last long enough. Before all, the blades become dull, so I have to change the essay anyway. This last for about as long as with other Venus razors also.
The only complaint, but I want to be no star deduction: The bracket with suction cup did not want to stay in my tiled bathroom wall off, so that I, lying just use instead of being attached to a wall on a shelf.
