I’m a teeny bit embarrassed. I’m old enough to know better, but I’ve been shaving with those cheapie disposable razors since I was a teenager. I scoffed at the notion of paying more for a nicer razor, versus paying $3 for a bag full of nicks on my legs. I figured I was getting more with my money buying disposables since the refills for those pretty razors can be kinda pricey. I mean, it’s just a razor, right?
Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. I will never shave with a disposable again. I look at it like this. When faced with the choice of driving a hooptie, or upgrading to a Cadillac for only a few more dollars– what would you do? I’m serious when I say that the Gillette Venus Embrace is like the Cadillac of all razors, girls. This thing shaves so close and so smooth, at first I didn’t even think it was working! The 5 blades individually adjust and contour while the moisture ribbon makes it just glide over your skin– you’d think you were ice skating. While I could go on waxing philosophical about the Venus Embrace, I’ll leave you with this: It rocks. And your legs are worth it.
Hi, I’m Amber and I’m a recovering disposable razor user.

Okay, I need to try this! I’ve been hearing a lot about this razor, but this good review just seals the deal. I’m sold.
Hey Amber! Let me know how you like it. I could not believe that I can justify spending more than a few dollars on a razor now. I even surprised myself!
Haha! I know, once you go Venus, you never go back! I’ve been using it for a few years now, and you can totally notice the difference!
Haha! You’re too funny!
I agree though
