Gillette Venus Swirl Razor & the Gillette Venus Olay Violet Swirl Shave Gel Review #Giveaway

Today is the first day of spring.  Happy Spring! It should really be called the first day of shaving your legs.  Yes, as of today you can no longer hide your hairy legs under leggings and jeans, it’s time for us to prepare for the summer.  In celebration of this wonderful time of the year I want to introduce the new Gillette® Venus Swirl™ razor and Gillette Venus Olay Violet Swirl Shave Gel!

Growing up I lived in Upstate NY and as sad as it may sound we never shaved in the winter unless there was a funeral and we had to wear a dress. Now that I’m in Florida I can’t really get away with it as much. It’s rare that I can get by 3 days without having to shave my legs. Now that summer is nearing I will be shaving every single day and that’s a lot of wear on my skin. I am not sure if it is due to age or what, but if I use foam shaving cream or a razor over a couple days old I’m going to get razor burn. If you haven’t had it, it hurts!

When SheSpeaks reached out to me to review the new Gillette® Venus Swirl™ razor and Gillette Venus Olay Violet Swirl Shave Gel because I’ve been using a Venus razor for years and it’s been my favorite. So what did I think? Well, other than the fact the color ROCKS the shave gel was amazing. It’s super thick and lathers nicely.  I’ve used a lot less of it than any other gel I’ve used before and even after a week of shaving with the same razor I haven’t gotten any razor burn. The razor itself hugs my curves with the new  FlexiBall™ movement making shaving around my ankles, knees, and underarms so seamless. No more missed patches of hair for me!

Other features:

  • Venus Swirl™ is the first Venus razor to feature Gillette’s most advanced blade technology, with five Contour™ blades that cut hair at lower cutting force and have thinner, finer edges — the thinnest in Gillette’s history. The Contour™ blades individually adjust to a woman’s every curve and contour.
  • A water activated MoistureGlide™ Serum surrounds the blades for incredible glide.
  • The beautiful new violet-hued translucent handle combines a swirled pattern and ergonomic gripping design for outstanding control and easy handling for optimal maneuverability over those tricky areas.

You will find the new Gillette® Venus Swirl™ razor and Gillette Venus Olay Violet Swirl Shave Gel at your local Walmart at the everyday low prices you have come to expect. While you are there you can conveniently pick up everything on your list, including the Pantene hair care line…making your shopping trip a one stop shop.venus giveaway

    The first time I tried shaving was when I was 12 at my best friends house in the tub omg my mom was so made at me for doing this and my best friends parents also because I let all the water out and the hair stuck to the tub and I just left it.

  47. If your old school age like me, then you recall shaing with one of those razors that screwed up on the side, then you fill it with a flat razor fill blade then close it back up and shave. Ouch!! It did hurt because new or old via the blade, you always got nics to you skin. I had 3 sisters and so my mom had her razor and dad his. And we girls used moms, which to me was icky! so I shaved close and hoped it last a while. Back then it was hot pants and tub top era so you really got self consicous if your arms went in the air at concerts or to give the peace sign symbol in those hippie days lol. Thank goodness for the soft and ease in creative femaine products that Gillete Venus Olay offers today, at great prices by the way! 🙂
