In my June Pinkbox was among others the Wilkinson Sword Hydro Silk. I now had it about 4 weeks in use and now the blade is ready for the trash.
Wilkinson advertises:
The water-activated serum, enriched with marine extracts, gets the moisture content of your skin
5 Curve Sensing blade with unique Skin Guards help protect the skin from irritation and ensure an unbelievably close shave
The oval blade head moves efficiently and effortlessly around your contours
An ergonomic handle offers support, no matter what area you shave
Dermatologically tested
And with me the whole thing looked like this:
The water-activated serum stuck the next day after use in slimy threads in my shower storage, especially if the razor is still new. Shaving even I noticed a slightly greasy film on the skin, which is, however, easy to wash off. Saves Serum NOT the use of a shaving gel or -schaumes.
5 Curve Sensing blades slide or scratch alternate over my skin and there is even at slower shave a feeling as if I had a men razor in use, which is not suitable for my slim, fine woman's skin. And obviously my tested combination of the usual amount with me Balea Nature shaving cream, these 5 blades and my skin a non-recommended! My left leg was bright red and I had three days a very painful razor burn. For the right leg, I turned off the water, took twice as much shaving cream I had minimal redness that were gone after one day.
The shave is in fresh blade, especially under the arms and on the legs, very smooth. The skin seems to be really a little softer by the serum. After about two weeks, I did not feel any difference to my Wilkinson Sword Quattro more. And finally subsided, the skin irritation, which I got in the form of small red dots after every shave.
The oval blade head tja to divide with me the spirits. Somehow, he is too big for me for as an unproblematic shaving at the ankle, ankles, knees and shoulders. It's okay, but me it has not convinced.
Ergonomic handle what use is the most amazing grip when the head is not all come true?
My Conclusion:
I'm going to buy more blades. I see no point in buying 3 razor for 11 Euro, which lead me to elevated Rasierschaumverbrauch and also lead to skin irritations. In addition, they keep with me just 4 weeks.
Tip on the edge Who likes shaved with shower gel, which should try at this shaver rather once carefully. As you can see very nice, it has not done so times the usual amount of shaving cream with me. not want to know how it then without aussieht.smilie_girl_bibber
