Gillette Mach3 Mens Razor Blade Refills, 15 Count, Designed for Sensitive Skin

I have been using mach3 razors for over 22 years. I recently tried using a no-name refil but the quality was not the same. I will only now buy gillette mach3 refils going forward, you can truly feel the difference during the shave and the resulk. Some things are worth paying for and this is one of them!

Don’t even bother wasting time trying different brands to save some money. Worth the premium as you get more shaves with blades.

These are good blades i’ve been using for many years but didn’t realize i could get many more for high value on amazon until now!

Good blades but they should include a handle. The information in the description did not specify that a handle would not be included. I went to the local pharmacy and picked up a smaller pack that did include a handle.

Ultra sharp and long lasting

I love these razors. I switched to the new 4 blade gillette razor, but have gone back to the older model mach3. These mach3 last longer, gets in tighter places like under nose, around lips, ect.

They work and cheaper then wallyworld

These blades last much longer than most! Thanks

Great price and enough to last a while

Gillette has always made the best razor blade. This three blade razor offers the best value and shave you can find. Sure, it’s really sharp so you need to be careful shaving. But, the result is what counts. I’ve tried others but have come back to gillette.

My critique
compared to the gillette fusion they’re more cost effective for me. You see i have a very very coarse beard and moustache. When i shave it doesn’t even seem like i shaved. Sometimes i kid myself by saying that my facial hair is like barb wire. Haha. I’m trying to play it off a little bit but it can be seriously detrimental to your self image if you don’t learn to have a thick skin or take things too personally. Anyway back to the review. Of course they (the mach 3s) don’t shave as close or as smooth as the fusion blades but they’re the next best thing. And they don’t cost nearly as much. They’re still sorta pricey as you guys who have a budget can probably attest to. But what makes ’em a bit costly for me is that the blades only last me for like two or three good close shaves. After that they start cutting wimpy again. It’s a little more cost effective if i buy them in bulk. That’s why i buy the 15 packs. Matter of fact that’s what got me sucked in to writing this review for you guys. I need to get some more. And it doesn’t help that my skin is not only producing coarse hair it’s also a little more sensitive than most men’s skin. So i feel razor burn a little more than most men too. And although it’s not seriously bad i do feel a little twinge of it every day under my chin.

My shaving technique
when i shave i have to really prepare my beard and face 1st by washing my face and taking a very warm 8-10 minute shower (exclusively on my beard). I know this isn’t for everybody but it’s better for my really coarse hair. Anyway i wash it of course in order to remove any oils and debris that has built up throughout the previous day so that nothing will impede the cutting of the hairs. The very warm water (not real hot mind you. Just hot enough before it starts getting a little too uncomfortable. That’s all.) to soften the beard where the beard can come off rather easily. It may not come off like a hot knife thru butter but it makes the hairs under my sideburns just fall off. And bc my hairs tend to lay flat when i shave i apply a little williams lectric shave pre-shave solution on my dry face after i dry off to supposedly make the hair stand erect. It seems to work a little but i still get a little uncut hairs left. Then after i wet my face i put a few drops of shave oil on my face to help the blade glide more across my face to help prevent cuts. Then i put the shave gel or cream on. Now for me bc i have very coarse hair, especially around my mouth, i have to make two passes. You may only have to do just one and get away with it. I can’t. Haha. On the 1st pass i shave with the grain (or in the direction my hair grows) downward for the most part. Upward under my adam’s apple. And then after i shave my whole face i apply a 2nd coat of shave gel or cream and i do a 2nd pass shaving against the grain. I do the sideburns 1st bc their already soft and work my way inward to about 1/2 inch to the mouth. I don’t shave my mouth area just yet in order to leave the shave gel or cream on it to continue letting the water absorb softening it more bc it’s the coarsest hair on your face. Then i jump to the other sideburn and start shaving inwardly towards my mouth. When i get 1/2 an inch to my mouth i move to under my chin. After i go across under my chin. I move to my neck. But here’s where it gets sorta tricky. The hairs under your adam’s apple grow in the opposite direction of the rest of your face so i switch directions there to shave in the opposite direction. (i.e. If you were shaving downward now you go upward. If you were shaving upward on your 2nd pass you shave downward). Now you’re almost finished. Double check to see if there are some hairs still uncut. You may have to twirl cut them (bc a one directional cut may not cut the hair) with your blade that is if they’re stubborn hairs that don’t want to be cut. Now don’t be lolly gagging too much here doing that bc your face has just been traumatized with all that cutting and is probably getting inflamed. So you want to turn the faucet on the coldest water settings as soon as you can. And apply it to your face. This is not going to be pleasant. But man up bc if you don’t you’ll wish you had. Bc this can help your face avoid swelling and bumping up. And nobody wants to see their face all red and swollen and bumpy. Anyway when you’re finished you can admire that work of art you just created. If you want to you can even enhance your face with an after shave or some cologne or whatever turns you on. It’s your world man. Face it with a smile knowing that you got this.

I didn’t experience a significant great shave.

Razor blades are razor blades these are as good as any others.

Ok product, only good for one shave per blade comfortably and very expensive.

Great sharp smooth blades that do not pull your hairs out. Aloe strip makes for a soothing touch passing by skin as it cuts through the hairs. Unfortunately i have lots of really thick hair which blunts the blades quickly. I do not get 60 cuts out of a 4 pack of blades more like 16 cuts from the 4 pack. Sorry that’s my only down side plus blades are expensive.

These have been by go to razor blade for a couple decades. Nothing super special with these, but why change what works?

These are good blades, but blades are still more expensive than they should be in general. Not amazon’s issue.

I have sensitive skin and i saw these online. Very satisfied so far. The longevity is ok. I am halfway through the pack i bought.

They work as they should and leave a close shave and do not irritate the skin.
