I’m a guy and I just wanted to share that I use Venus Razors for getting a smooth close shave for my face. The reason why it works so well is that no hair gets stuck in the blades so its always a smooth shave. I’m sure other men’s razors do the same but I accidentally started using my gf’s Venus and I was hooked. I actually saw the Venus Embrace in CVS today and was thinking of trying it out. I may try it out once i run out of cartridges again. To me the cartridges are also expensive but worth it when i get a non irritated smooth clean shave! Oh and congrats on your success!
