Nick-Free Shave

So I know this post will be a bit off topic but I simply can't help myself. I got out of the shower over 2hrs ago and my poor legs are still stinging from the very cruel razor I used. Now I'm all for "alternative" hair removal if you will (meaning waxing, laser, depilatory, etc) but when it comes to my legs I'm a bit old fashioned. You see I'm 5'11" (so you can guess that I have long legs) and have a very low pain tolerance; so the easiest, painless, quickest way to make my legs silky smooth is through shaving. I just went home for the weekend and of course I forget what I thought was my insignificant razor that I have had for years. When I shaved tonight I used another razor (designed for women). Everything was peachy keen until I got out of the shower and immediately my legs started stinging, it felt like a million bees had attacked them. I kid you not there was no amount of lotion, calming gel, or cool towels that could take that pain away. Still feeling the same hours later, I realize that my old, taken-for-granted shaver is a lavishly gentle miracle worker for my legs.

Yes Gillette Venus Razor you are my leg's long lost soul mate. I don't ever like to be one of those people who realizes what they have until it's gone but in this case I failed you my dear Venus. I remember the day I bought you- it was about 6 years ago and you had just entered this pretty little world. Our neighborhood Costco had a big welcome party for you and I, like millions of other women, rushed to pick you up. We had heard of your groundbreaking 3 blade cushion design. We had seen the ads for the close, smooth shave and nick-free strokes. Fast-forward 6 years and you're still delivering on all your promises. That's a better return for my investment than that hostile 401k I keep dumping money into monthly. I promise Venus I will never mistakenly leave you somewhere again. My legs and I miss you! Mom send me my razor please!

Usage tip: For a closer shave, first wash and exfoliate your skin to help remove the dead skin cells. Then when as shave see and experience the blades getting as close as possible for the smoothest, nick-free skin.

The result: Silky smoothness that as you cross your legs at that boring Monday meeting you have to say to your self "Oh wow, that's divinely soft!" And oh yeah, the best part is there's no stinging!
