Smooooooooth

I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.


Of course, I am talking about the Venus Embrace for Sensitive skin.  I don't know about YOU but I have a lot of problems with my legs.  I using shaving cream, lotions, expensive razors... all of it and I still end up with bumpy skin that itches and burns.  I can't even put (most) lotions on my legs for at least 24 hours after shaving.  Yea... it's bad...

So Influenster is awesome and sent me the Venus Embrace Sensitive VoxBox which came with the Venus Embrace Sensitive razor and refill.  I was skeptical because... really it's very rare that something works on my legs.  Anyways... I wait a day or two to get some stubble going and give it a shot.  

First thing about this razor you will notice is that it is super comfy.  It has a nice cushy, gel grip that makes it almost impossible to drop or slip.  Then you take the first stroke.  "Ok, pretty smooth.  Glides really nice... let's keep going."  Now let me tell you it feels great it has the strips above and below the blades and then the surrounding bar to help keep you moisturized before and after the blades hit your leg.  It definitely did the job.  One draw back, I am used to using men's 5 blade razors because my leg hairs can be kind of stubborn, and this one did not get as close of a shave as I am used to.  That led to me having to shave again the next day.  

Shaving two days in a row???? On my legs???? Yea right!  Well I tried it anyway... and it was not as bad as usual.  My legs still don't like it but I don't get the red, itchy bumps that I can't stop itching.  Weird thing, I actually have to NOT use shaving cream.... knowing my luck, the shaving cream irritates my legs.
