Review - Bic Soleil Citron Pivot Shavers


  • Citrus scented handles.
  • Lubricating strips with shea butter. 4 count - $5.99


  • Every time I shave my legs, it's not a fun time for me. Not that I cut myself, that rarely happens unless I'm half asleep or stupidly rushing my way through the business. But what I find is, I have fuzzy spots even when I'm thorough, and even worse, my skin gets sore and stingy, and even bumpy. I'm not a hairy person by any means, so I can't fathom why this happens. I've used other ridiculously expensive fancy shavers specifically for women, and I've had no luck. But these Bic Soleil Citron shavers are like magic on my legs. It's not often that I go telling my friends and female family members about razors of all things, but I've got to tell you, this is by far the best shaver I've ever used. I'm hooked and I will never use another unless (god forbid) they stop making them. I highly recommend these to sensitive girls out there.

    Review - Kiss my Face Moisture Shave


    This shave contains a moisturizing formula with antiseptic Peppermint to cool and stimulate, emollients Olive Oil and Coconut Oil and Aloe Vera for healing. Goldenseal heals and acts as an antiseptic. Arnica aids circulation.

    I love love love this shaving cream. You can find it at health food stores (or online) for about $7 for a big bottle, and that bottle will last months and months. I believe I have had the bottle I purchased last for over 3 months! All you need is a little bit of cream and you're on your way. It feels slippery and soft and lathers well (not like a foam though, it's a totally different experience) but you come away with a clean shave and super soft skin.... And if you're wondering, YES I am sort of a hippie and chose the Patchouli scent and really love it, it's very subtle and makes me feel warm and fuzzy when I use it.
    I've even used this shaving cream after a day in the sun on the beach with no problems, it's so gentle. And I am so prone to razor burn. This is really unlike any other shaving cream/lotion I've ever used and I really recommend you give it a try, especially if you're not satisfied with what you use or are sick of it running out really fast and being expensive.

    Review- Gillette Venus Vibrance Soothing Vibrations Razor


    · One Venus Vibrance razor, one shaving compact, and one "AAA" battery
    · Features multiple lubrastrips that ensure a smooth glide and gentle shave
    · Primary strip contains aloe, botanical oils, and special ingredient "TONE" to gently exfoliate and moisturize
    · Soothing vibrations can result in fewer nicks and cuts; includes one "AAA" battery
    · Shaving compact ideal for mounting in the shower or for traveling
    I got one of these little numbers as a holiday gift (you know, stocking stuffer sort of thing) and I absolutely just had to write about it because I am just... well I'm just confused. It's a razor that vibrates. YEA, it vibrates. I'm not sure it vibrates a whole lot, I could feel it sometimes, then other times not, but it really does.... vibrate. yea. I'm confounded because I am not sure how this translates into a clean shave, and I am the queen of accidental nicks and razorburn so I pride myself on razor safety and knowhow. I didn't cut myself, but it wasn't any more special than any other razor I've used that's touted itself as super close, soft skin, safe shaver etc etc. But it's just so weird that it vibrates I had to tell the world about it, and I frankly don't know why it does. If anyone can explain please get in touch.
    All in all, it's a regular razor, but for over $10, it's an expensive everyday razor.
