Venus & Olay Razor... she's got it! Yeah, baby, she's got it!

In my Influenster Love VoxBox, I received many goodies, including the Gillette Venus & Olay Razor. Most women are familiar with the Gillette Venus brand. You've either used one, seen them in the stores or remember the commercials! I don't know about you, but when I spot them in the store, I start humming or singing "Yeah, baby, she's got it!". Then again, I used to be a Bananarama fan back (way back) in the day.



I have dry skin... especially in the winter. When I say dry, I mean it. The skin on my body is flaking off! So gross. But anyways, whenever I shave my legs, I swear the razor takes off two layers of skin. The moisture strips on my usual razors last for the first leg and leave me little protection on my second one. My kiddo thinks shaving involves blood because I'm always all nicked up afterwards.

I tried the Gillette Venus & Olay Razor the very night that I received my goods!
According to the description given to me by Influenster, "Gillette Venus & Olay are coming together to deliver a gold standard in shaving... Olay Moisture Bars help lock-in moisture to your skin, while Venus' five blades shave you close."



If I could insert sounds of angels singing right now, I surely would. This razor is heaven-sent (which I guess makes sense with the goddess theme). Not only did I get the awesomeness of Olay to moisturize my oh-so-dry legs, but the Venus razor left me soft, smooth and without a single nick on me. This is the FIRST time that I did not suffer a shaving related wound since I started shaving twenty years ago!!

I still can't believe the impressiveness of the product. It is not available yet, but when it comes to a store near you, do your legs a favor and treat them to a goddess-like pampering. You deserve it!

Gillette Venus & Olay Razor will retail for between $8.99-$10.99. Check out their website: www.gillettevenus.com.

My Influenster Challenge



I received my first VoxBox from Influenster yesterday! Influenster sends new products to ordinary folks (like me) to test and evaluate then if we like what we use, we recommend it to everyone we know!

Check them out at www.influenster.com

I'll be posting reviews as I try it all out. Keep a look out for updates RIGHT HERE on my blog!

Side Note:
This was the very first time that I ever used my laptop's webcam so the picture quality isn't the best. You can see everything clearly, it is not just as "crisp" as I would have liked!
