I am a Bzz Agent and every so often I get to test and review products. This is a great honor because I get to make an impact on brands and item on the market! Today I am reviewing the Bic Soleil Savvy razor.
So, what is the Bic Soleil Savvy razor? It's a razor that combines the convenience and performance of a cartridge razor with the price of a disposable razor. This razor has a 3 blade on a pivoting head, supported by an easy grip disposable handle. It comes with 4 replaceable heads.
I shaved the right leg with the new Bic Soleil Savvy razor, and I left the left leg untouched to show the difference.
The razor itself is cute. It sports a pink color that is appealing for a girly-girl. I love the fact that it is suppose to be comparable in price to disposable razors, but with the convenience of a reusable razor with disposable heads, but I was not impressed on the shaving performance. I am use to using 4 and 5 blade razors, while this is a 3 blade razor. My legs still felt prickly. The picture above was taken on my second time using the razor with the same results both time. I have sensitive skin, so for others with sensitive skin, the good news is this razor did not irritate my legs. I think this razor is probably great for women with thinner leg hair, but being half Puerto Rican, my leg hair is some what thicker than most. So will this product be on my "obsession list"? I don't think so.
Here are some shaving tips that will work with any razor straight from BzzAgent:
1.)
Shave at night. Shaving removes dead skin cells and the superficial layer of skin. While this process is healthy, it reduces your skin's defenses for a couple of hours. Shaving at night gives your skin time to recover its strength and suppleness to resist irritation.
2.)
Shave clean skin. To help prevent infection and bumps, make sure your skin is perfectly clean before you shave. Apply hot water beforehand or shave after showering. Warm humidity increases skin elasticity and soften your hair, making it easier to shave.
3.)
Apply shaving cream or gel. Use shaving cream or gel with Aloe Vera when shaving -- it's gentler on your skin than regular soap and can help lift hair. Lather the cream or gel, then leave it on for two minutes prior to shaving. Once your hair is softened, the razor will glide more easily over skin.
4.)
Use a sharp blade. Change your blades regularly, especially if you have sensitive skin. On sensitive areas like your bikini line and underarms, shaving with a dull blade can result in red spots.
