Gillette ProGlide replacement blades, 8 pieces for men, fit compatible five-blade razors with new cartridges for shaving and beard styling. Suitable for men who want to take advantage of five blades, beard and skin preparation features, and a dedicated precision trimmer for contouring.

Key Benefits

• A set of five blades in each cartridge helps reduce friction during shaving.
• The small spacing between individual blades contributes to a more comfortable shave.
• The manufacturer describes the first four blades as their sharpest and thinnest ProGlide blades.
• Soft micro-fins gently stretch and smooth the skin before the blades pass over it.
• A micro-comb positioned in the cartridge guides hairs in the right direction.
• An improved lubricating strip with a greater amount of gliding agents ensures smoother gliding over the skin.
• A stabilisation system maintains consistent blade spacing while simultaneously allowing the blades to adapt to the contours of the face.

The combination of five blades, micro-fins, a micro-comb and stabilisation helps the cartridge prepare the beard and adapt to the contours of the face during shaving.

Composition

The lubricating strip contains mineral oil listed as Paraffinum Liquidum, aloe vera leaf juice under the name Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, and Tocopheryl Acetate, which is a derivative of vitamin E.

The lubricating strip therefore provides you with a combination of aloe vera, a vitamin E derivative and mineral oil.

Use and Dosage

• The cartridges fit all five-blade Gillette handles, with the exception of the GilletteLabs system.
• The precision trimmer on the back is designed for shaving hard-to-reach areas and styling the beard.
• The manufacturer declares a lifespan of up to 20 shaves per replacement cartridge.
• The gradual fading of the lubricating strip indicates declining cartridge performance.

Compatibility can easily be verified by the type of handle, and the fading strip helps identify the right time for replacement.

Packaging and Volume

• The pack contains 8 replacement ProGlide shaving cartridges.
• These are replacement cartridges only; the razor handle is not included.

About the Brand

The Gillette brand and the concept of the replaceable razor blade were the brainchild of King C. Gillette. He successfully brought his concept of a razor with a replaceable blade to life in 1901.
