Schick Quattro For Women Review

Be warned, this razor is not for those with sensitive skin! Its 4 blades give a very close shave but too close for my delicate skin. On the first use, it gave me the worst shaving rash I've ever had. I had bumps all over my legs and the burn... oh the burn! Even the aloe vera didn't help! I gave it a second attempt with the same result so unfortunately it had to go in the bin.

I was sent a razor from the company as they were giving a heap of them away and who doesn't love a freebie?

I don't know why there is such a difference between men's and women's razors but nearly every women's razor I have tried just doesn't cut as smooth and easily as the men's if they just put pink plastic on a men's razor instead of the blue and called it ladies i would be happy!

This razor is the same it just doesn't cut right down to the skin. After I shaved my legs they still felt "stubbly" and I found it particularly hard to shave over my knees and my pits. The only thing I really liked about this was it was easy to hold. Will I buy again? Nope, I think I will stick to men's razors and waxing

I was so excited to receive a complimentary razor through a sample company - especially as I'm in a 'I refuse to buy a new razor whilst I'm IPLing' state of mind. But to be honest, my current razor was black with rust, so getting a new one was excellent timing. Unfortunately, my old plastic unfancy rusty one still does a better job.

Now don't get me wrong, I don't hate the Schick Quattro - I really like how pretty it is, how sturdy, and how it feels nice to hold as I shave. Unfortunately I find the head too big to get into the nooks and crannies of my armpit, and the conditioning strip puffed up after the first use meaning I couldn't get a close shave, which rendered the 'long-lasting silky smoothness' claim invalid.

Alas, I chucked out my old razor the moment this arrived on my doorstep, so I'm stuck with it. Although I'm thinking I should just stop being so pigheaded and buy another pack of unfancy razors - that do a much better job for a third of the price.

Would not use again or recommend. This razor doesn't shave very well, and does not give a close shave compared to other razors. After each shave, even with the use of shaving foam, my skin would get really irritated and itch. And I would also get tiny bumps as well on my legs for the rest of the day. The price of the Schick Hydro Silk is similar to the Quattro, so definitely buy the Hydro Silk instead

I got this free as a trial thing so I had no idea that it was fifteen bucks. Did it shave? Yup. Was my skin smooth after? Nope! I don't know if it's just my sensitive skin, but this razor did not agree with me. After using this, my leg (thankfully I only did one leg to test it out) started going all pink and itchy. I've never had rashes after shaving so I thought maybe it's the little moisturizing pad thing? The itch lasted for about two days, during which my leg was bumpy and on fire. I haven't tried it again since then and I'm glad I didn't pay for something I'd only use once. I would only recommend it if you don't have sensitive skin, because those two days of itchiness were hell.

I'm a bit disappointed with this razor, it doesn't cut as close as others I use that are around a similar price range. It's definitely not bad but I just don't feel as smooth as I could be after shaving with this razor, and the blades seemed to blunten more quickly than I expected..

I do like the design of the razor, it's a good shape to hold and the rubber is super grippy so it shouldn't slip out of the hand. Also there's metal in it so it has a little bit of weight to it which it gives it a quality look and feel.. However, I find the Schick Hydro Silk razor way better than this one, and would definitely recommend going for that one instead!

I had high hopes for the Schick Quattro For Women razor, but it was overall underwhelming.

I can get quite bad shaving rash, so I always look for the most gentle razor. This one on the spectrum sits in about the middle, it's not as gentle as I would like, but it's not as harsh as many others I have tried.

In terms of looks it's a nice looking razor and for those who don't focus on more gentle razors I think you'd be quite happy with it. It's also a reasonable razor pricewise for the razor plus replacement heads.

But overall for me I'd only get it again if I couldn't find anything better at the time.

Schick Quattro was my day one razor, recently purchased it again after a couple of years using different razors and is it just me or have they changed it?? I remember it being heavier and feeling much better quality. Now it seems a bit flimsy? Regardless, it does the job just fine but I can't help feeling disappointed!

I love a good razor, I'm always on the hunt for the best one and I give other brands/razors a try but I ALWAYS come back to this one.

Its light weighted and a good shape to hold. Its also a cute colour. I find the conditioning strips last longer, not forever, but longer than other razors and I find that the 4 blades really do make a difference rather than the normal 3.

I bought these because they were on special at the supermarket. It’s as simple as that as I find most razors perform in a similar way so I am not particularly brand loyal. To be fair I usually use Gillette though.

I shave my legs and underarms regularly, probably a couple of times a week on average. I use body wash to shave with as I generally shower at the gym and don’t want to have to bring an extra product in my already overflowing gym bag.

I usually try to eke out my razors for as long as possible – I hate having to buy new ones, just like I resent buying feminine products.

This razor was much like others I have tried - works well for a few uses then goes blunt. The four blades do provide a nice close shave though. It's pretty expensive so I wouldn't buy it again probably, as I tend to go for cheaper razors since I replace them frequently.
