The pack of four refills provides good value for a high-quality product, and the SkinCushion technology paired with the Lubrastrip (enhanced with a touch of avocado oils) ensures a smooth glide and a comfortable shave.The blades are sharp and effective, delivering a close shave with minimal irritation, especially when used with a good shaving gel. The five-blade design does an excellent job of reducing the number of strokes needed, which is a blessing for sensitive skin. The refills are easy to attach to any Venus handle, making them a convenient option for those already using the Venus system.That said, razor blades can be tricky to review because everyone’s experience will vary based on skin type, hair texture, and shaving habits. While these blades work well for many, users with very coarse hair may find that the blades dull quicker than expected. Additionally, the Lubrastrip, while helpful for glide, tends to wear out faster than the blades themselves, which might bother some users.In summary, the Gillette Venus Extra Smooth Razor Blades are a reliable and widely compatible option for a smooth shave. They cater well to sensitive skin and deliver on comfort and effectiveness, but as with any razor blade, individual results may vary. For most users, this product strikes a great balance between quality and value.

I used to like the more cushioned razor heads but they only have 3 blades so I gave these 5 blades a try and I’m loving the close shave outcome of the product. Blades feel sharp but I haven’t experienced any cuts from them. They’re not as cushioned as some other heads but still pretty good.

Photo shows the comparison to another genuine Venus blade to show the difference. Honestly these are far better they’re obviously the upgraded ones the other is a 4 blade these are a 5 and the price is basically the same. Honestly it’s the best one I’ve used and I use Venus blades anyway!Upgrade ladies this is brilliant the best shave I’ve ever had

So, I tried out these Gillette Venus Extra Smooth Razor Blades, and let me tell you, they're legit. You get 4 refills in the pack, so you're set for a while.Now, onto the important stuff – these blades give you the smoothest shave ever. No more dealing with prickly legs or annoying nicks. And that Lubrastrip? It's like a little treat for your skin, thanks to those avocado oils.But here's the kicker – no irritation! Seriously, they've got this SkinCushion thing going on, and it's a game-changer. So if you're tired of crappy razors, do yourself a favor and give these a try. You won't regret it, I promise.

I like that when stood in the shower doing my legs it’s much easier to get a clean cut free shave with good results.I usually react to blade rash and soreness after wet shaving but no more with these heads, they are a lot better on my underarms and legs & they give a close shave but so far no rashes due to the added moisture tabs on each side.

I’ve never had a problem with these razors. I think they’re really great and they do a fine job.

Great deal!
