If you look after your men's razor blade properly by allowing it to dry on a stand rather than on the side of your basin, for example, then this can help to improve its longevity. The blades are made with Gillette's sharpest edges (blades 1 to 4) to help cut through beard hair with low resistance. Fusion5 Power blades have been designed to last for up to 20 comfortable shaves with microfins that stretch the skin for a close, comfortable shave with each stroke.

Enjoy additional blade stabilization that gives you more control, and a higher guard to boost your skin protection. The frequency with which you should change your razor refills will depend on exactly how you use your razor blade for shaving. The blades are also enhanced by a unique anti-friction coating, offering a clean, smooth shave with lasting closeness.This trimmer blade is also useful at styling precision lines: it's convenient for precisely shaping a beard and shaving along sideburns. Our ultra-sharp, anti-friction razor blades ensure a smooth shave, fitting all Gillette 5-blade razor handles (excluding GilletteLabs). You can rotate the ergonomic handle easily thanks to its well-placed grips, moving effortlessly between the main front blades and the precision trimmer. With these blades I get unfortunately only two weeks instead of 3 weeks, but since they are also a little cheaper it just balances out again!

While we have taken care in preparing this summary and believe it is accurate, it is not a substitute for your reading the product packaging and label prior to use. So I came home and carried on using it and as I usually managed to nick myself with my old razor, I expected the same with this, but the Proglide is brilliant. Featuring multiple microslots, the microcomb is designed to gently guide hairs towards the blades during shaving, while the microfins gently stretch your skin in front of the blades to help prepare the surface for shaving. Sideburns and tricky areas, like under your nose and around your mouth, can be tackled with ease thanks to this handy feature.
