    Wilkinson sword quatro for women
    Does anyone else use these razor blades? They come with either a yellow moisturising strip or a pinky/purple one.

    So far I've had a 3-pack of the pink/purple ones and a 6-pack of the yellowy ones.

    I dunno if I just got a duff first pack, but the pinky/purple ones only seemed to last about 4 shaves! And this is only the bottom half of my legs and my armpits! But I'm still only on the first of the yellow ones and its lasting ages (at least 3 times as long and one of the pink ones) and still giving a smooth finish.

    Has anyone else found this? Or did I just get a duff pack of the pink ones?

    And for anyone who uses any kinds of razors - how long does each of yours last (+ where do you shave)? And how many blades does each one have?

    Honestly, I've always found women's razors a massive gimmick. I use men's blades (gillette) to shave my legs, armpits, and bikini area - they last ages, up to a couple of months maybe (I don't really pay attention, just change when they need it), shave just as well and are way cheaper than women's.

    If you use a shave gel and moisturise afterwards the strip is pretty much defunct.

    I use the yellow ones and they've always lasted quite a long time and always give a good result. I do agree though that often men's razor blades are better.
