Turning off the personalized advertising setting won’t stop you from seeing Etsy ads, but it may make the ads you see less relevant or more repetitive. It skates well across the skin without tugging or scraping and offered me the aforementioned clean shave. However, with the number of blades being equal, there's no difference in the orientation, spacing, or sharpness of the blades themselves from Gillette's men's razors to its women's. Though the actual blades appear to be the same size as the ones on other razors on this list, the surface area of the head made me feel like I had less control while shaving.

The Swirl has a multidirectional pivoting head that can rotate from side to side as well as up and down, so it’s easier to shave tricky spots like knees and ankles. If you frequently shave hard-to-reach parts of your body, or if you want a razor with more flexibility and lubrication, we recommend the Gillette Venus Swirl.

Either way, we found that razors designed for facial shaving all have smaller, rectangular blades that are less equipped to handle the nuances of shaving a body, such as the broad expanse of a leg or the grooved valley of an armpit.

Unlike the Gillette, it comes with a holder that suctions to the wall, but the accessory fell down over and over again throughout my shower, rendering it useless. The subscription model, included items, and shaving results are almost identical to the other popular subscription razor Billie, but the blade quality on Athena is better, which bumped it higher in our scoring. I expected this to make the razor significantly more flexible than others on the list, but this wasn’t the case.

Gillette Mach3 Turbo razor blade refills feature 4 stronger than steel razor blades that stay sharp for a considerably longer time than normal blades. Though no one hated the Venus Original, it garnered less enthusiastic praise from its fans than other, more polarizing razors we tested, such as the Venus Swirl. One swipe removes all of the hair in the razor's path and one or two swipes in tough-to-reach areas, like around the knees or ankles. The first shave from this razor cut comfortably close to the skin and left our legs smooth for days, but in our experience, the blades didn’t stay sharp enough for long enough.

This classic Venus is one of the easiest razors to grip and maneuver, and its three-blade design keeps the blades remarkably free of hair.You'll know it's time to change your blades when the Lubrastrip fades to white or the shaving feels duller than normal.

Our premium "Kampala" shaving set is a rich mix of blue, red, and gold in a process that takes two full days to complete.It also makes the Original more travel-friendly: It’s less likely to stick to the blade cover included with the razor.
