Billie Razor Review
I don't know nigh you, but I've been seeing Billie everywhere. All my friends are talking nigh it as well as I lead maintain to admit, I've been influenced lol. But it was non easy!!
I've been loyal to my razor for years. Like years as well as years -- always since I cutting myself shaving amongst a inexpensive razor on a cruise when I was inwards high schoolhouse (it was rattling deep as well as traumatic). I swore I would never inexpensive out again!
For the yesteryear 10+ years, I've been using the same build razor. I liked it because it didn't cutting me. Outside of that, I was simply loyal to live loyal. It was good, it was expensive, it lasted a long time. My pilus has never actually been an effect inwards full general but I practise tend to larn razor bumps around my armpits as well as I lead maintain for a while. I simply think it's job of the procedure amongst saving.
My routine, equally it's been for years, is to shave nigh 1x a calendar week as well as I consider myself lucky! Leading upwards to my marriage ceremony I did dabble inwards waxing as well as the calendar week earlier my marriage ceremony I decided to also include my legs... permit me say you. Never again. It didn't fifty-fifty concluding that long as well as it was so painful.
So hither I am, simply dealing amongst it and agreement shaving simply comes amongst the territory. But thus Billie kept popping upwards everywhere. You know when it gets inwards your caput thus you lot come across it 10x a day? That was me. I was nigh to buy it a few months dorsum but never pulled the trigger (remember, I was loyal) as well as in 1 lawsuit to a greater extent than nigh a calendar week agone afterwards my individual friends raved nigh it (I'm unremarkably the ones raving to them).
I got it inwards nigh 2 weeks agone as well as I purposely skipped a calendar week shaving to come across how it would handle. I fifty-fifty set it to the exam for a friend's wedding. It was fourth dimension to sink or swim.
Aesthetically speaking, the razor is so cute. I got the cool blue color as well as it's simply a proficient looking razor. I'm also weirdly obsessed amongst the magnetic holder. I think it's the lilliputian things that larn me lol. Price-wise, I was inwards full disbelief. I hateful $9 for a razor, holder as well as 2 blades? That's form of crazy (especially if you lot knew what I had been paying!).
Then it was become time... inwards the shower, I set it to the exam -- 1 leg amongst a shaving stone oil as well as the other amongst a trunk launder (both of which I've used inwards the past). The shaving stone oil was much improve (obvi) but I've also heard, since purchasing, that Billie's shave cream is legit. So I'm interested to endeavour that out too!
For the razor itself, I was floored by how abrupt it was! Not going to lie, I was a lilliputian worried I was going to cutting myself -- it was that sharp (and my PTSD from that fourth dimension on the cruise lol). It made me think, "Is this what I've been missing out on all this time?" Usually, I apply heavier than normal pressure level as well as become over the location a fourth dimension or two, but amongst Billie it was different.
It did an amazing project amongst my underarms as well as legs. Like noticeably different. Even Andrew said something! That guy is thus attentive lol. And I'm non afraid to acknowledge that I've used his razor before! There is simply something unlike nigh a guys razor as well as I don't know why. Comparing the 2 though? I pick out Billie.
In price of grow dorsum time, I institute that my leg hairs are definitely coming inwards much slower. My armpits are nigh the same BUT I don't lead maintain whatever (new) bumps. Kind of crazy, right? (And for you lot visual people out there, I simply got upwards as well as microscoped both spots to come across as well as analyze for this post service correct straightaway lol.)
I'm excited to popular off on trying it as well as inwards nigh a calendar month I'll part my to a greater extent than detailed thoughts. While the starter kit was gifted, I lead maintain purchased a shave plan. They ship you lot four novel heads every calendar month - every 3 months depending on how frequently you lot shave! And the best job is, the four heads are STILL JUST $9!!
I simply wanted to larn this out to you lot straightaway since 1. we're partnering together as well as 2. it was quite the conversation starter on Instagram when I shared I bought it! But popular off on an oculus out for an update on stories (probably around my honeymoon) sharing to a greater extent than updated/long term details!
Until then, wanted to response some FAQ I got via IG:
Q&A:
How frequently practise you lot demand to supervene upon it?
Billie recommends replacing it afterwards vii shaves (so for me that's nigh every 2 months). They lead maintain subscriptions depending on how frequently you lot shave!
What makes it different/better?
Personally speaking, I think the toll is a huge factor. Second, I think the blades are sharper!
Does it build you lot experience dry out afterwards shaving?
I didn't uncovering it made me experience whatever unlike agency inwards price of dryness (or the opposite) from my other razors. So no. But if you lot think you lot might, they offering trunk lotion equally well!
Does it actually shave closer?
I think so! It was the actually big noticeable alter I saw afterwards shaving.
How much does it cost?
The starter pack is only $9!!!
Do you lot demand shaving cream amongst it?
I haven't used shaving cream since college so, no! Lol. I've heard neat things about their shave cream.
How does it compare to a men's razor?
I think it's better. Men's razors, piece great, don't actually curve/move that good inwards general. I would job men's to larn a closer shave but I think Billie's is closer.
Any razor bumps?
Not that I experienced!!
Thanks to Billie for sponsoring today's post!
