For many men, a key part of their self care routine is a nice, clean shave – whether that’s tidying up the edges of a beard or moustache or maintaining a fully shaved look. However, having to go to the barber every week – or doing it at home with a sub-par razor and ending up with nasty cuts and razor burns – can be expensive and painful.
What if there was an alternative way to have the best of both worlds with that fresh barber style cut, but without breaking the bank?
Look no further, since the Gillette Fusion5 Razor Blades for men is now down to £17.39 from £22.49 in Amazon’s Spring Deal Days sale. The razors have anti-friction blades, meaning buyers can be guaranteed a pain free, seamless shave. For a low price, buyers can get up to 20 comfortable shaves from each razor refill, so this pack of 11 blade refills should last a while.
The razors also feature a precision trimmer which allows users to get into hard to reach places, as well as a larger lubrastrip for a soft, supple shave.
Of course, there are endless razor options on the market. Those who prefer an electric shaver could take a look at the Phillips 3000X Series Wet and Dry Electric Shaver for £50.00 from Argos, which has 27 self-sharpening PowerCut Blades that give up to 55,000 cuts per minute and a pop-up trimmer. Alternatively, a classic wet shave option could be the Wilkinson Sword Hydro 3 Razor for men for £13.33 from Boots which contains one Wilkinson razor handle and nine refill razor blades.
Gillette, however, is a well loved brand, and this product has a 4.7 out of 5 star rating on Amazon from a total of 9,447 reviews. One buyer said: “The Gillette Fusion5 Razor Blades are outstanding. The 5 anti-friction blades provide a close, irritation-free shave, even on sensitive skin. Each blade lasts up to 20 shaves, making this 11-pack great value. The larger lubrastrip ensures a smooth glide, while the precision trimmer is perfect for detail work like sideburns or hard-to-reach spots… It made the perfect gift for my dad. Highly recommend for anyone seeking comfort, quality and precision.”
Another said: “Great value genuine product. These work very well for me with my thick beard that I let the stubble grow longer than I should. No cuts and long lasting.”
“Gillette never disappoints you when it comes to sharpness, ease of use, non resistant on skin. It really does its job really well,” said another customer.
Some, however, weren’t as pleased as one buyer said: “You have to buy tons of these because they go blunt after a few uses. It’s Gillette so you know what you’re getting. Just a shame they are so pricey.”
Another said: “Nowhere near as good as the old ones, these do not give a very close or even shave.”
For the discounted price of £20.87, however, the highly-rated Gillette Fusion5 Razor Blades for men could be the perfect choice for people looking for a clean shave from a reliable brand.
