GILLETTE

The Gillette brand specialises in the manufacture of shaving and hair removal products. It focuses on health and beauty care. That is why its products care for the skin and are designed to prevent irritation during shaving and achieve a smooth, pain-free result. The main ranges on offer can be divided into products for use during shaving, such as razors, replacement blades and other accessories. Others prepare the face for shaving, whilst other products are designed to care for and moisturise the skin once shaving is complete, such as those in the Gillette Aftershave range.

It is owned by Procter & Gamble, a company dedicated to making people’s daily lives easier. Through its various brands, it meets needs in the areas of toothbrushing, baby care, household cleaning, personal hygiene and shaving. The American brand Gillette was founded over a century ago and, to date, its best-selling product worldwide is the Gillette Mach3 range of razors. Gillette has continued to innovate and conduct research to offer the perfect shave and has produced vibrating razors with up to five blades.

Its various product ranges include a number of tools for shaving. On the one hand, it offers razors, trimmers and replacement blades in a variety of types, which have been continuously innovated and improved throughout the brand’s history. Particularly noteworthy is the Gillette Fusion range, with its innovative manual and electric versions. Its latest product launch has been the Gillette ProShield, which provides lubrication both before and after shaving, protecting against irritation. Furthermore, its lifespan can be extended by using replacement blades. It also offers disposable razors . Furthermore, it has a range dedicated to preparing the skin for shaving, featuring creams, gels and foams, as well as post-shave moisturisers to prevent irritation.

The range of razors encompasses many different types, which have taken on an increasingly modern look over the course of the brand’s history. Gillette’s two best-known ranges are as follows:

Fusion ProGlide razors. Launched in 2006 in both manual and electric versions, they are designed for the most sensitive male skin. This product adapts to the contours of the face to achieve a closer shave. This is made possible by Gillette’s FlexBall technology, which makes the razor head flexible. Its five blades are thinner than conventional ones, which prevents tugging and increases shaving precision.

Fusion Proshield razors. They provide lubrication for the skin both before and after shaving, as the fine blades in this razor protect against skin irritation and ensure maximum contact with the face.

Another of the brand’s best-selling razors is the Gillette Sensor; this product is designed to deliver a very precise and smooth shave. It features two spring-loaded blades and a pivoting head, which allows it to adapt better to the contours of the face, thereby achieving a precise result. The Gillette Sensor has a non-slip rubber grip to ensure the razor is easy to handle. It was one of the first razors of its kind; years later, in 1998, the Mach3 razor was launched, featuring a three-blade system that facilitates a smooth and close shave.

Razor refills allow you to reuse Gillette blades time and time again. They feature a blade stabiliser that maintains the optimal spacing between each blade, providing the user with the most comfortable shave possible. In addition, replacement cartridges for the Gillette Fusion ProGlide feature a new trimmer made from blades with improved technology, a guard positioned over the comb, and grooves that improve rinsing. They also have a lubricating strip that allows the blades to glide more quickly and smoothly over the skin. You can buy Gillette Fusion ProGlide replacement blades at our pharmacy. Both those compatible with the standard blade and those for the Gillette Fusion ProGlide Power Flexball are available. To keep your skin feeling smooth and fresh after every shave, they have developed a gel that protects and cares for your skin whilst you shave.

The first razor designed specifically for men’s body hair removal was created by this brand. This product has some unique features. It has a rounded head that quickly adapts to hard-to-reach areas, three lubricating strips that help it glide smoothly, and a handle that provides a more secure grip and prevents it from slipping whilst you’re in the shower. This helps prevent nicks and irritation. The Gillette Body razor offers replacement heads with blades designed to deliver a closer shave all over the body, including hard-to-reach areas. The advantage of being able to reach all areas is that it helps men with body hair removal, even if they have a curvy, uneven body with hair that grows in different directions.

The brand has launched a range of hair removal products for women, although for many years it has been associated primarily with men’s grooming. Women’s hair removal is now also part of this brand’s portfolio. Gillette produces razors that remove hair whilst caring for the skin. Before discussing the Gillette Venus products – the name of the range dedicated to women’s hair removal – it is worth dispelling some myths about shaving.

It is important to know that when hair is removed with a razor, it does not grow back thicker. When shaving, what you are actually doing is cutting the hair at skin level. Therefore, when the hair reappears, it does so without any change in its structure. Another widespread belief about this method of hair removal is that it damages the skin. This too must be debunked, as provided you moisturise properly after shaving and use a suitable razor, the skin is not harmed. In fact, the skin suffers more with other hair removal methods, such as waxing. With waxing, the skin is subjected to very aggressive tugging, and over the years this causes the skin to develop more wrinkles, particularly if this type of hair removal is carried out on facial areas, such as the upper lip.

Gillette is the first brand to launch a razor designed for women. The Gillette Venus Breeze features three blades; this brand innovates by incorporating handy shaving gel strips which lather up during shaving, resulting in smooth skin in a single stroke. Another razor designed for women is the Gillette Venus Embrace Sensitive; this razor is specially designed to care for delicate skin, causing less irritation. The Gillette Venus Embrace Sensitive features five blades and a touch of aloe vera to care for the skin. Replacement blades for both the Gillette Fusion ProGlide and the Gillette Venus ranges can be found on our website. You can buy replacement blades in packs of four for the Gillette Venus Breeze and Embrace Sensitive ranges.

As an authorised online pharmacy for the sale of pharmaceutical products throughout Europe, it’s easy to buy any product from their extensive range on our website, with the same guarantees offered by a traditional high-street pharmacy. This online parapharmacy stocks the brand’s various razor blades, including both men’s shaving razors and Gillette Venus razors for women’s hair removal. You can also purchase Gillette Fusion Proglide Sensitive Shaving Gel to care for men’s skin whilst shaving. The online pharmacy’s website often features Gillette offers, making it cheaper to buy replacement blades or the razors themselves.

Feedback from users who choose this brand to care for their skin whilst shaving is very positive. Particularly noteworthy are the positive comments from women, who have long been waiting for a razor tailored to the needs of women’s hair removal. Innovation in this area and the brand’s continuous development of its Gillette Fusion Proglide razors are the reasons why they are so well-positioned in the market.

It is important to look after your skin, as this often reflects good hygiene and health habits. That is why this brand places particular emphasis on skin care with its products, especially as shaving to remove hair can cause skin irritation and dryness. Achieving smooth, well-cared-for skin is easy, just as buying Gillette is straightforward.
