Schick Hydro Silk Razor Review

This razor rules. It feels smooth on my skin and doesn't leave little nicks or cuts. It's super easy to use around he tricky knee area and gives a nice close shave.

One thing I really like about this is that the handle makes it super easy to grip and hold while in the shower. I haven't had issues with it sliding out of my hand when using it (which can be dangerous).

It is super affordable and I always have one of these in my going away bag as it is easy to travel with and it does a great job.

I love this razor to bits, I had the Hydro 5 for a while and loved the close shave it gave me so I decided to go for the ladies version this time. My razor came with a travel case which you put over the top of the head to protect the blades etc from getting damaged and caught it other things. I use this at home as it allows me to lay my razor down in my drawer without the moisturising serum getting everything sticky and allows the blades to dry completely. I love the idea of having a serum on the razor so that you do not need to use a soap/shaving gel but I felt like this was lacking some potential as when I went to use it, I ended up with a bit of shaving rash due to the friction, the serum didn't come out as well as it should have. Other times the serum has worked how it is suppose to so maybe it was my fault that I didn't run it under the water enough prior to using it. Other than that, it is amazing for getting super close and if the serum works like it is supposed to, you get amazing silky legs.

Gives a close shave and does not cut or leave my legs feeling dried out. Swivel head helps to go over knees easily. All in all does what a razor should do.

....I have NEVER cut myself shaving before. But, with Hydro Silk? different story. It was a nightmare! I had cuts galore.

On the positive side however, what wasn't cut skin that later turned into unsightly sores, was very soft and smooth.

...still looking for that perfect razor...if it exists!

This is what i buy and use regularly. The blades last well and give a close smoth cut without feeling like i'm going to slice my knee or ankle. Generally i have no issues with shaving rash and think its a great razor to have in the shower waiting for when needed.

I liked this razor, it gave me a nice clean smooth shave, while not being worried about getting any little nicks over my knees or not so easy to shave areas. It was light to hold with a great shaped handle. Did the job without getting shaving rash i find i do often with sensitive skin. I liked the ease of this disposable razor to use and will but more blades to keep using it.

I ended up receiving this razor for free when it was first released due to a competition that was on Facebook where they were going them out every day. For me I have always purchased the Venus range which I was drawn to because of it being pink and girly. When I received this I really like the color of this razor as it just reminded me of water. I liked that the razor had five blades which was great for a nice clean shave to either your legs or underarms. I found that it was super moisturizing for my legs but the only downside is the gel they use for the formula does run out quite quickly. I wouldn't repurchase this due to finding an shaved that I prefer.

Overall I think this is a really good razor, around the same price as my usual razor and blades. I would possibly buy it again if it was on special. :)

Pros: The 5 blades work great, and leave you with smooth legs and armpits. The moisturising serum makes it possible to shave without using shaving lotion. It has a little travel head, so that you can carry it with you without your things getting damaged.

Cons: The serum can get sticky ad clog the blades. It doesn't have a shower holder, which means you have to find space to put it in your shower.

I'm a bit naughty and don't use a shaving cream with my razor. The Hydro still glides over wet skin effortlessly and no nasty little nicks like I used to get using cheapo razors :o )

This razor is such smooth operator, it's got all the moves and made me want to take advantage of it again and again. When I received it I looked it over and thought how handsome it was but was it all looks and no action? Well I put it to the test, it has a wonderfully comfortable grip, allowing you to hold on to it easily and gently, I ran it under water first to get it all wet and ready and stated the upward strokes on my legs, well!!! it glides like silk, even over those bumpy bony areas like knees and ankles and gives a true close shave, so close that I couldn't stop running my hands up and down my own legs, and I used it again and again, every 2nd day since I got it just so I could relive that sensation of 'just shaved' legs. The lubrication is just the right amount and isn't caked on so high it stops the blades getting close enough, and it lasts too, I'm onto my 4th shave with my Schick Hydro Silk Razor and the silky lubrication has not waned at all. I can't recall having a closer shave ever and I am a bit of a razor tart, always seeking 'the one', well I have found it, this is my favourite and one that will stay in my shower to be used and adored whenever I feel the urge to take advantage of all it offers, bliss, trust me.
