SkinGuard revolutionizes the process of shaving by making shaving at home more enjoyable, including for men who are prone to skin sensitivity and irritation while shaving.

Gillette SkinGuard blades allow for the ideal blend of closeness and comfort, helping to protect against shave-related irritations. The lubrication, with a touch of aloe, is strategically placed both before and after the blades, delivering maximum comfort with every stroke. Additionally, the precision blade on the back of the cartridge allows you to perfect your lines and achieve a sharp, well-groomed look. This pack of blade refills fits all Gillette SKINGUARD, FUSION5, PROGLIDE, AND PROGLIDE SHIELD razor handles.Experience the confidence that comes with "the best a man can get": a shave that's as easy as it should be-comfortable, smooth, and clean.

Q: How many shaves per cartidge does Gillette expect for this type?
submitted by Antonio83 - 2 years ago
A: The number of shaves you get per cartridge will vary on many factors, and there's no definitive answer. However, we expect around one month's worth of shaves per cartridge.

This razor doesnt shave quite as close as a 4-5 blade system but it's not supposed to. This is the reason its doesn't cause as much irritation (along with some soothing aloe that you can feel). However, the shave is still close enough for those who want to save their sensitive skin. My only criticim is that the blades barely last a week each, so they should include 5 per pack. For this reason, 4 stars instead of 5. Otherwise a top-end product.
Dont shave well.

They don’t shave really well. I like the brand but won’t buy these again.

Melissa, we're very sorry that you're not a fan of our SkinGuard Razor. We want everyone to get a close and comfortable shave, especially those with sensitive skin. These blades are designed for those with sensitive skin to get a close shave while keeping it protected through the help of SkinGuard Technology between the blades. While you can get a close shave with them, by using a pre-shave, warm water, and shaving against the grain, you may not get as close of a shave compared to our Fusion razors. We'd love to hear your feedback and pass it along to our team. Please call us at 800-445-5388.

Each blade lasts me ONE WEEK at best. After 6 or 7 days , it starts giving a rough shave. I don’t know why Gillette says 1 month????? It does cut down on cuts but at a high price.
1 reply from Customer Care team - 2 years ago
While we're glad our SkinGuard Razor has reduced the number of cuts you've experienced, we're sorry it's not lasting as long as you were hoping it would. We have quality and safety checks in place to ensure you get a cut-free shave, and as you have already said and know, around a month's worth of shaves from each of your razors. Since facial hair can be as tough as copper wire, we suggest using shaving cream, gel, or foam to soften the hair after trimming it down and soaking it in warm water. This should help soften the hair and prolong the blade, but since we're sure you already knew that, we'd like to hear from you about this and help. Please call us at 800-445-5388.

The blades don't work well. They seem kind of blunt :(
1 reply from Gillette team - 2 years ago
You deserve nothing short of a premium shave, so we're sorry that these blades seem a bit blunt. It may be because our SkinGuard Technology in the SKinGuard Razor may not deliver as smooth of results compared to our other razors, but you should still get smooth results when using warm water, a shave prep, and when shaving against the grain. We'd love to help with your future shaves and learn more about your experience. Please call us at 800-445-5388.

I was leery of shaving because I am on blood thinners & worry about nicks. This Sensitive Razor was exceptional with no cuts at all. The shave was smooth. My Best Buy!

I bought this a week ago at a Walgreens, and I have to say I love it! I needed a quick shave before going to work, and it did the job very well. I love how it is extremely easy to clean compared to the Fusion cartridges (it seems there is a small section on each side that collects hair and is impossible to clean because there is plastic behind it, boxing in the hair), and it's even easier to clean than my Gillette FatBoy DE razor. It also seems to be very effective for manscaping. My only issue with it (not an issue with the cartridge itself) is that it should come with a Proglide handle. I like to use the Gillette Slide with my DE and it seems that the Proglide comes with a feature that sort-of automatically does this. I bought the cheapest Proglide I could find just for the handle. It's possible to do this with the default Skinguard handle, but if I'm going to be lazy when shaving, I want to be LAZY. Also, despite clearly being marketed towards a certain demographic, I'm Caucasian and it works just fine on my beard, even with a bit of growth. I will definitely be buying more of these, although I'll probably be keeping my FatBoy in case I run into a situation where I can't find more cartridges.

Bought this few days ago, it was waste of money. Doesn't even do the job. I don't have thick beard, tried one blade then second. Literally had to scratch my skin of to even shave my beard. Big big no. Wish I hadn't wasted my 35 buck on gillette. Not goin to buy again.

There's nothing more important to us than the quality of your shave, and your safety. Being designed for those with sensitive skin, and incorporating SkinGuard Technology, some users may find it more difficult to get a smooth shave when compared to our Fusion razors. While we have many quality and safety checks in place, we recommend doing the following for the best experience: Trimming the hair down first, soaking your skin in warm water, applying a pre-shave, and shaving against the grain using light and gentle strokes. Your experience isn't something we take lightly, and we'd like to hear from you about this. Please call us at 800-445-5388.

Takes multiple passes to shave without a close shave. I unfortunately purchased the 8 pack and will toss the rest. I bought it to use with my fusion 5 handle and have been using the disposable dollar store razors I have. Would not recommend

Above all else, the safety and satisfaction of our users are our top priority. Of course, our users with skin sensitivities are no exception. We designed this razor so that those with those sensitivities can get a smooth shave without having to worry. However, with the SkinGuard Technology, you may need to take additional passes to get the results you're after. First, trim your hair down first, soak it in warm water, apply a pre-shave, and shave against the grain. This may help, but we'd love to hear from you about this, and share other razors that may better suite you and your needs. When you're free, please call us at 800-445-5388.

I started shaving in the 1960s. My 1st razor was the Gillette Safety Razor, then the adjustable Safety Razor, through the evolution of the Men's Gellette razors to the Skin Guard, my Razor of choice, as I have very y temperamental skin that is easily irritated. THIS is the best razor I have put on my face!!
Worse than a regular razor

Anything here that is being easier on your skin is completely canceled out by the number of passes it takes to get an even marginally close shave. You'll end up irritating your skin more than if you just get a reglar gillette 4 blade. At least it's cheap.
1 reply from TheGilletteTeam team - 3 years ago
Above all else, we believe that everyone deserves a comfortable shave. We crafted our SkinGuard blade so that even those with sensitive skin can get comfortably smooth results. However, due to the SkinGuard Technology between the blades, it may be harder to get a smooth shave faster when compared to our 5-bladed razors. We recommend trimming it down first, and apply a pre-shave and warm water to soften it up. By doing so, when shaving against the grain, the hairs will be easier to remove, and leave you with smooth results. We're truly sorry for your experience, and with the quality and safety checks we have in place, we wouldn't expect this. Because we value you and your shaving sessions, we'd like to hear from you about this and help. When you're free, please call us at 800-445-5388.
