Gillette Venus Embrace Razor Review Summary

Gillette Venus Embrace Razor is made to make shaving for women that much easier, smoother and softer without nicks and cuts. The larger more comfortable handle makes handle a woman's curves when shaving much easier. Five blades and moisture ribbon makes safer shaving easy too. Bluefairiez76 says, " I love how the 5 blades shave your hairs smoothly." Bonehead says, "I have recommended it to all my friends and family." Some may find the replacement heads to be expensive but if this women's razor does the job for you, it doesn't seem like too much money.

When the newest Gillette razor, the Venus Embrace Razor, was introduced, I was eager to try it out.  I'm always looking for a new razor with superior shaving quality.  I have stubborn, coarse leg hair growth, which grows in multiple directions, which makes it incredibly difficult to achieve a smooth...

When Gillette announced their new 5 blade razor was still on the same platform as their old 3 blade venus, I was pretty excited. No need to buy the new razor, just different blade cartridges. The razor was fantastic. Provided a clean, close shave, just what I was looking for. But after getting the ribbon...

I used to use cheap disposable 1 bladed razors simply for the fact that they were cheap.  I got a The Gillette Venus Embrace Razor for Christmas in a toiletry kit and I'll never go back to the disposable again.                 The Embrace has 5 blades for the closest shave ever.  It has two lotion beads above and below the blades for a nice smooth leg.  When I like about the Embrace is that I haven't once knicked myself shaving.  Now, I'm sure its possible, but they make it pretty difficult.  The head of the Embrace has a pivot so that while shaving it conforms to the movement of your...

I had tried Gilette brand razors before for woman, but I was never really happy with how they worked and I often had ended up with nicks and cuts. Up until now I had been using a Gilette razor for men. I saw the advertisement for these Venus Embrace Razors on TV and online and thought I'd give em a try. The notion of having smoother legs is hard to resist. After one shave and countless ones thereafter I am quite pleased with the level of smoothness attained after I shaved using this new razor. Smoothness that does last for days. Hair does not grow any slower, but nonetheless your legs still remain...

Everyone's heard of the Gilette Venus razors, and if you've used one, you know how smooth a shave it can get from them. The Gillette Venus Embrace Razor does not disappoint in this area.

Every woman knows that you want a razor that's going to leave your legs silky smooth, and this razor does just that. I bought one for me, and one for my niece who is fifteen, and she loves it just as much as I do. She even told me that it's the best razor she has ever used. She has a habit of slipping with her razors, getting lots  of nicks and cuts in the process, so she told me she's happy that it has somewhat...

The Venus Embrace Razor is honestly the best razor I've used.  I have alot of trouble with razor burn and have not had a problem with it since I've switched to this razor.  The heads seem to last well, which in my opinion makes the refill heads as good of a value as possible.  Let's face it, no razors are cheap and these aren't either, however, I do find that with the lasting power they are worth the money spent. The only thing I've found about these razors that I didn't like is the shower pod "caddy".  It was pretty much useless in my opinion.  Personally I'm not too concerned with what...

okay so Gillete, who is renouned for making great shaving products for men, has made an improvemnt to the old Venus razor. The Gillette Venus Embrace Razor has 5 blades spaced closer together individually adjust to hug every curve for dramatically smooth skin. The cartiridge is fully surrounded by a protective ribbin of moisture. A new soft grip handle made of soft gel material that surrounds the entire handle. New Venus ShowerPod next generation for in-shower storage holds 2 cartridges and attaches to shower wall with suction cups.

So for me the most exciting things are the pivoing head (that...

The Gillette Venus Embrace is by far the closest and most moisturizing shave I have ever experienced.  The five bladed design is a close shave that ensures that "just shaved" feeling lasts all day long.  The Gillette Venus Embrace is designed with two moisture bands and a rubber cushion for a deep moisture experience; sometimes I don't even use shaving cream and it's still great.  The design of the handle, with it's soft rubber back is easy to hold on to, thus it is ideal for people who shave in the shower.  The Gillette Venus Embrace has a pivoting blade and it is wonderful for...

Gillete's Venus Embrace Razor is a good quality razor at a reasonable price. First of all, this razor has an easy grip handle with appealing feminine colors. It comes with a shower pod that houses the razor, which can be placed on your shower wall for convenience. The razor head contains five blades which are surrounded by a generous sized moisture ribbon. This of course can be discarded as needed. Replacement heads can be purchased in packs. If you are looking for a close shave without having to worry about nicks and scrapes, this is your winner. I think most women would be satisfied with...

This razor is great for an on the go mommy.  It gets a very close shave and is reasonablly priced.  I got mine on sale at CVS while they were offering Extra Care Bucks and I had a $4.00 Coupon (Which made this a GREAT DEAL).  I've been using this product for several months and have no complaints.  Proctor and Gamble is great about running coupons for this and refill cartridges in their monthly coupon book and retailers are great to run this product on sale. 

I have dry skin and usually have nicks every time I shave.  I have not had that problem with this razor.  It has reduced the number...

The Gillette Venus Embrace Razor is the best shave a Women Can Get. It has 5 razor blades to get a smooth close shave. The large moisture ribbon around the blades of the Venus leaves your skin feeling soft. The handle is very comfortable while shaving. After shaving you just can't help but to rub your hands up and down your legs to feel the softness and how close of a shave you get. I'll tell you one of the neatest things is the handy shower pod that comes with it. You just stick it on the shower wall and it stays! You hang the razor in it and no more fumbling for the razor through all the shampoo... review »

The Gillette Venus Embrace Razor is a one of a kind razor. If you are a female and you would like to try out a razor that doesn't hurt or possibly damage your skin, try this. It has a no slip grip handle so that you won't occasionally drop it or maybe let it slide causing you to cut yourself. Of course, with all razor, the top part is disposable and with Venus, they always include backups. So once your razor blades get dull, you always have one that can be there just in case. This razor also include five blades, so that you can make sire you get the clean shave that you want. According to many...

The best part about this razor is that it glides very easily over skin - even if it is a bit rough, dry or scaly. It has fairly cushy and thick conditioning strips that not only make the shaving process more pleasant, but also keep your skin safe. I'd watch out with the brand new razors because the blades are very sharp (I guess that's what it takes to do a good job), s normally when I switch out the blades, I do nick myself the first time I use the brand new razor. It also comes with a little shower holder that suctions onto the wall, making it easy to access. But, beware, I've placed the razor...
