Gillette SKINGUARD - average guy tested

[@TheDragonshadow1231]

@theMediaMart. This type of shave 2 blades and a cartridge razor with only 2 blades might be good use against most sensitive area such as e.g underarms armpit & pubic area. With, it's spring attached hence it's called "SkinGuard" spring and 2 blade cause less irritating less tugging less to none ingrown hairs. Also good use for sensitive skin people

[@averageguytested]

Yes!! Exactly. Thanks for watching!

I just got this razor, its not as close a shave you expect from such an expensive razor but it does cause waaaay less irritation which I am very thankful for.

[@averageguytested]

I agree.

[@TheGamerPandA]

How long does the gel/gel coating if it has any stay on at the top of the razor? after some search i think theyre called "lubrastrips". For example do they stay for like 3-4 shaves only or more if it has any like the blue/green coating of gel you find on the top of fusion power/proglide blades ?. Ive found that fusion/proglide blades only last 3-4 shaves or so at best with a gel coating on which kinda sucks as it does give a burning feel once it wears off on the 5th or 6th shave and upwards, ive even found torn parts on the top where it is on proglide shaves after those 3-4 shaves meaning its not great to use after that amount.

I'm on my 4th shave with the Skinguard and I'm so impressed with the smoothness it's made me put down my Schick Injector (G8 type from 1950's) for awhile. I was on a roll with my old injector but my angle somehow has been off in certain shaves and it's given me itchy bumps on my neck on some days. This is why I checked out the Skinguard in the first place. I needed something that is consistent for awhile and this Skinguard is providing some of the best shaves I ever had. Thanks again! Great channel!!

[@averageguytested]

Hey Todd - I’m just seeing a bunch of comments come through from over a year ago - must have been a YT glitch. How’s the shave going with SKINGUARD?

[@LeotheK]

@@averageguytested Hi and no problem! The Skinguard ended up being hit and miss. As time as gone by I also tried electric shaving with a Braun series 7 and 9, which my face started to agree with after about a month. But as a shaving enthusiast I am back with DE shaving too, and found a combo of razor and blade that has given me amazing results. I haven't had a shaving bump since February. The Edwin Jagger DE89 is surprisingly an amazing shaver, but I underrated it and it sat neglected in my stash since 2014. In February I tried it with a Gillette Nacet blade and it was heaven all along the way. Still enjoying this combo. Thanks for asking! I post my great shaves on my blog: lliverpizza.wordpress.com

Hi! How many times do you use a single cartridge? If it's not too much to ask. Package says one cartridge can go a month.

This razor was a godsend for me. I tried I don't know how many razors and I got nicks all the time no matter how careful I shaved and when I tried this it was a total game changer. It doesn't shave as close as other razors but when you can't get nicked by it the closeness really doesn't matter anymore. This is my go to razor for my face.

As a man who has used Gillette for more years then i care to remember i find this razor to be outstanding, Gillette is the best IMHO AND WOULD NEVER USE ANYTHING ELSE.

[@averageguytested]

[@mudz678]

I have leukaemia and am on a very effective targeted medication, but I’m getting one irritating side effect....very slow-to-heal infections around hair follicles, particularly if I’ve nicked the skin because of an ingrown hair. Because I’m very prone to ingrown hairs, particularly on my neck....it’s a bit of a vicious circle right now. I just used this cartridge, after about 4 days of not shaving, and I am VERY impressed. I’m 69 years old and have used a lot of different razors. Most recently Gillette’s fusion, with a power handle. With a 5 blade cartridge I could never decide if the power was a gimmick or a legitimate feature, but I like the fat handle and the weight with a battery installed. The only place the skinguard cartridge didn’t want to shave as closely as I wanted was under my chin, so I turned on the power....with this cartridge it is NOT a gimmick, those stubborn whiskers were gone in a pass. Yes, it probably costs more for a cartridge than it should, I’d obviously prefer the cost to be lower, but no other company did the research and development needed to bring this to market, so I’ll happily pay the price. Judging by how well this first shave went, at the very least, this is going to significantly lessen my problem. And, I still got a very nice shave... I can feel a tiny bit of stubble, if I rub against the grain....to me this is exactly what I need. Thank you, Gillette.

[@averageguytested]

Thanks for sharing your experience and best wishes to you, my friend.

[@valueink]

Is there a huge difference between this and the Skinguard disposables? And what is your favourite cartridge razor?

As a black man the best technique to avoid razor bumps is to not use a traditional razor at all. Instead, I use the same hair clippers that barbers use to cut hair. Absolutely no hair bumps at all with this method and cuts as close to the skin as you can get without irritation. Products like this would destroy my skin and the shaving method you used is an absolute nightmare for most black men.

I used it in a 3 pass 15 minute shave, which is time I don't have, and I went a day and half until I felt it was time to shave again. If you are one to shave daily I think this will be a good product for you. I feel the Proglide cartridges are better than these because I don't see stubble for over 24 hrs w/ the Proglide, but when my beard is growing back I get much less sensitivity after using the Skinguard.

[@ZC.Andrew]

Like you demonstrate, Gillette makes a good razor. We know this. But I'd still rather have a few more ingrown hairs and be less disappointed in my razor provider's marketing team. That female-directed Best A Man Can Be series was absolutely absurd. I am glad they are putting out new products, but mostly so other up-and-coming companies can follow suit and start winning some market share. I prefer supporting underdogs anyway, and so we have switched. All that said, I hope whoever wins your razor is happy with it! It definitely looks like a great product!

[@averageguytested]

Thanks for watching. 👍🏽 I made a series of videos that gave people alternatives to Gillette. I hear you - the commercial was weird.

@@averageguytested oh did you? Nice, thank you, I will check that out. Subbed.

[@jessew.8995]

Glad to see another shaving video, Tony. I really love your review videos because you take the "every man" approach. I appreciate a classic wet shave video as much as the next guy, but I think you do a great job of showing how the typical guy would shave with the razors, and it really shows the true quality of the product that way. Awesome!

[@averageguytested]

Thanks! Keep pushing play!

[@acedluffy5]

How much was it?

[@averageguytested]

I think it was $12

[@pkj77]

i just viewed this video again a thought after you mentioned Gillette going back to 2 blades hey they need to make a on bladed like Bic has ...even a 4 bladed i haven´t see any razors out there with 4 blades

[@averageguytested]

Schick makes a couple of 4 bladed models

[@pkj77]

@@averageguytested nice

[@tedcormier1736]

This razor feels very similar to the Schick Hydro 5 razor, even though the Schick has 5 blades. Both do not give the closest shave, but it is very difficult to cut yourself, and there is no razor burn. I live in Edmonton, and in January/February it is -25 degrees celsius with a humidity of 15%, so I do not want a close shave or else my skin will dry out, even with moisturizer.

[@averageguytested]

I have to do more testing with the SKINGUARD. Thanks for watching! 👍🏽

[@sharingout8656]

I have even use the blade in this video still the same :(

[@ianmuessig]

Nice review! I really like the skinguard and it has absolutely worked as advertised for me. That special addition white fusion handle would be a great addition to my den and even would work with my skinguard carts! Haha

I have try a lot of razor in my life, and always have burning feeling for days, and feels painful does anyone know what this could be? I have no redness or spots just always hurts

[@averageguytested]

I think that maybe you are pressing too hard. Try just letting the device do the work. Have you tried One Blade by Philips Norelco?

[@sharingout8656]

Thanks for the reply, love your videos keep up the good work. But I have try one blade was the same, I did buy Gillette Gillette SKINGUARD, I was using Gillette Mach3 sensitive which felt better then the skinguard one. Which one do you feel is better skinguard or Mach 3 sensitive? As I felt the Mach 3 is best.

[@scottfowler50421]

I use the Gillette contour plus blade what has only two blades and I think it's the best cartridge there is , I'm waiting for my metal chrome handle what fits the blade what I'm waiting for on Amazon. I think you should try using a Badger brush with the creams and soaps , that what I do when I use my contour plus blade.

[@Z9zs]

man i wish i could shave like that and not have a red bumpy shave

[@averageguytested]

Have you tried SKINGUARD or ONE BLADE?

@@averageguytested I haven't yet, but I think I'm going to give it a shot this week! thanks

One Blade is amazing if you don’t need a super close shave.

I really like it and was suprised how good it was, well happy with it!!!!

[@averageguytested]

Yes, it’s a smooth operator for sure!

[@mreburto239]

I had high hopes for this product, but after using the new Skinguard razor by Gillette for 67 days. I can say this product is a failure for black men with razor bump issues. I'm 56 and I stopped using a razor for shaving when I was 20. Magic Shave was and still is the answer for me. I can use the Skinguard razor for my face but not for my neck. I got frequent razor bump breakouts on my neck and the itching can just be unbearable. I went back to using Magic Shave on just my neck area and my skin is back to normal, no razor bump breakouts and the itching is gone. My skin is clear again. I had high hopes for the Skinguard razor, but it is an expensive dud.

[@averageguytested]

Do you, boo. 👍🏽

[@jasperjones6857]

Good review. Always looking for a new razor because I shave my head, which I find more difficult and time consuming! than just shaving my face. Looks like a good product.

[@averageguytested]

Try it out and let me know what you think.

[@kennybrown4920]

Your lather is to thick. The Skinguard works much better with a thinner more watery lather.

[@averageguytested]

I’ll look at that.

Does Gillette still make razors for men? I thought their hateful ad portraying most men as toxic POS was their way of leaving the market. I have NOT forgotten. Have you?
