It comes with 2 Blades TOTAL. The title of this item "2 Blade Refills" implies that there are 3 total, so I understand the confusion of some reviewers here.

Not for sensitive skin
I got this shaver for free and was somewhat disappointed.The paper box+tray are recyclable but the blade was in a little plastic package.There was only 1 blade in the box and not 2.The shaver is easy to set up and to use.The handle is light weight and is good to move over all the curves.It makes a close and clean shave but I got a little cut and my legs were bad itching some hours later.That wouldn't be very good for sensitive skin.It is not really a shaver I want to use further.

    affordable cartridge and great product! best venus
    best razor I've ever had! been a fan of Venus brand for a while, but this doesn't make gelly gross stuff with the aloe strip. the disposable razor head lasts 4-6 weeks or longer, especially with a foam shave gel. easy grip handles and great product! affordable replacement cartridge

    Love, love this design.
    Ingenious style, and function. It cuts my shaving time down. It glides across my skin with ease and the rollerball helps my effortlessly go from my leg to hard to reach areas like behind my knee or thigh with ease and comfort without cutting my skin. Love this razor.

    Dull razor
    I was not a fan of this Gillette Venus razor. I have used the products in the past but this razor seemed very dull. I was only able to use it twice before I had to throw it out. It also left me with tons of razor bumps. I would not recommend this specific razor but I have liked some of the others from this brand in the past.

    Great
    Finally got around to using this razor and I like it a lot. Not only are my legs not prickly, I didn't get a single nick from the blade. The flexible was great for maneuvering around my calves and knees without leaving patches.

    Recommend it!
    I decided to give a chance for this razor and I not regret it! This razor is perfect for me. It's a good razor, leaves my skin soft and less irritated, fits well on my hand and I didn't cut myself like I do with another's razors.

    Great Product
    I received my Gillette Venus Deluxe Smooth Sensitive Women's Razor Handle and it is great. I have used older versions of Gillette Venus razors and have liked them so decided to try this new one. It comes in a beautiful purple color with one cartridge that has 5-blades on it. The handle has a flexiball that allows it to twist in 4 directions to help reach those tricky spots which those of us with more curves really appreciate. I loved how smooth it shaves and seemed to shorten how often I have to shave; it also has a water-activated ribbon of moisture that helps against nicks. I definitely will be buying more refills cartridges for this razor. I recommend the Gillette Venus Deluxe Smooth Sensitive Women's Razor Handle, it's worth it.

    Pretty.
    Gillette Venus definitely puts consideration in the appearance of their products. The 5 blades do get a close shave. It doesn't feel like it really glides across the skin, but I think that's the purpose of the groves next to the blades. My skin is sensitive so this particular razor, for me, is a no. It is a quality razor regardless so I still recommend giving it a try.

    Nice product!!
    The sensitive Gillette Venus razor is great! You don't have to push hard on your skin to get a nice clean cut and for my sensitive skin it does not leave bumps or red marks. Easy to use and the razor moves with your skin nicely.

    I've tried alot of different brands and razors some was good and some was bad. This one I was disappointed in for being a 5 blade razor this one wasnt as smooth of a shave as one would expect from a 5 blade razor. It does come with a refill and the blade was easy to put on and the razor is a pretty color.

    Surprisingly Gentle and Effective!
    I have tried many razors over the years and I have never been able to find one that I was completely satisfied with until now. This shaver gives me the cleanest, closest shave and lasts a long time, I can use the same cartridge for about 2 weeks and I shave my legs, bikini line and under my arm pits. When I first used the razor I was genuinely and pleasantly surprised at how smooth it made my skin! It glides over your skin effortlessly and leaves your skin feeling silky smooth. The Gillette Venus Extra Smooth has saved me time and money by allowing me to shave less often with the blades it provides. This slick razor is easy to use and has a great grasp to it! It allows me to shave with ease and comfort. I no longer get razor bumps and itchy skin when using this razor. I travel a lot and this is my go to razor. The Venus Platinum extra smooth razor comes in this beautiful packaging that looks sleek and has holographic details that I loved. This razors moisture bar at the top worked amazingly. I didn't nick myself or have any of those pesky red irritation bumps. The heads are easy to swap out. Overall, I am very happy and impressed with this blade!

    Gillette swivel Razor is Awesome!
    The greatest razor you can buy. I worked 14 years for this razor division at Gillette and I was in the heart of quality assurance and I can honestly say you are getting the best razor money can buy. I sent away for a free coupon and used it on this purchase. I would have paid every cent for it.

    Goddess Gams!
    The Gillette Venus Swirl razor was amazing and since the Olay Gillette Venus shave cream was "purple" when it came out of the can, that was a huge hit with my daughter. She thought it was pretty cool how it came out in a swirl. We started with a dime size amount of gel and lathered it up in water. Any more than a dime you could do your entire body! It smelled amazing, came out with ease and went a long way. The Gillette Swirl razor had such an easy to grip handle. There was no pulling of the skin, no nicks, and the wide shave surface removed all the hair in it's path. The Venus razor easily glided over all contours of my ankles and knees. Our legs felt so soft and smooth afterwards and we didn't need lotion afterwards. The product packaging is vibrant, easy to read and the directions are easy to follow. Both the razor and gel are readily available in the stores I shop at and the price margin is great. My daughter loved how soft and silky her legs felt afterwards and wanted to do it again. One thing I would change would be to have a plastic bottom on the gel container as it may leave a rust mark on the tile surface if left wet. I will definitly purchase this product again. My skin feels fabulous. #gotitfree (This review was collected as part of a promotion.)

    Better than I expected!
    I have to start off by saying that the packaging is VERY cool! I love the turquoise/purple/gold colour combination and the metallic silver half ball on the front. Normally, rigid clamshell packages are super difficult to open but this one had a great perforated back and punched out design that made it quite simple. I have to admit that I am normally a “regular bar soap” kind-of-girl, but I found the shave prep a real treat. It first comes out like a thick purple gel that foams up to a nice consistency when rubbed in. I did apply way too much on my first leg which was a positive+++ because I came to learn that a little goes a long way! Does the foam really provide that much moisture to the skin seeing how short of a time it is left on there???...I am not so sure. I am sure that couldn’t hurt. It did provide great guidelines as to where my razor needed to go next. Kind of like a street map for my hair removal goals. The smell was pleasant and not too strong. I would best describe it as a deodorant-type of scent. As for the razor itself…it was nice. The spongy grip was comfortable. The colour and pattern were very pleasing to the eye. Did I feel that the metal FLEXIBALL did much?? hmmm...not really. The extra swivel you obtained was fairly minimal and I could have achieved the same result with a slight turn of the wrist. I chalk it up to a novelty that looks neat. Face it, the blades themselves are straight (nothing is going to change that) and movement of the head can be equally achieved manually. The five blade razor did provide a close shave and was about what I would expect from it (and from other multi-blade razors). I did find the serum on the edges of the blade a little redundant and probably not needed in conjunction with the gel/foam. I am sure that I would have really appreciated it more if I was stuck without adequate lather. Bring on shaving while camping using a cup or a hose ;’) Although I was okay with it, I do think that some people may find the extra “stuff” on the sides make the razor head a bit big. Overall, I liked the two products quite well. They got the job done, were “pretty”, and designed well. I might be transformed from a “regular bar soap” kind-of-girl depending on how long the container of shave gel lasts. I might not race out and buy the razor right away but if it is the same price as another 5 blade…I would probably choose it. (This review was collected as part of a promotion.)
