    As a woman, I can consider myself somewhat of an expert on what razors work for me...and what razors do not. I am naturally a brunette with heavy red accents (it's the Irish!), so the first thing for which I look when using a new razor is its ability to give me the closest possible shave, thus reducing the appearance of my dark hair beneath the surface of my skin.
    With the Soleil, I never really got a chance to assess its performance within that category of criteria. The reason? Every time I used one of these blasted razors, I cut myself. I have never been overly clumsy with a razor, especially a brand new one where the edge is at its keenest and the chances of ripping yourself open are slim. I used each of the five razors exactly twice, cutting myself without exception. 40% of my attempts ended with minor nicks, while 60% resulted in mashing toilet paper onto my leg for upwards of 20 minutes while I searched for a bandaid to staunch the bleeding. I'm not kidding here, these disposables were appalling!
    I am now the proud owner of a Venus of the non-disposable variety, and couldn't be happier. My gashes are healing, but my fear of the dreaded Soleil Disposables has yet to abate. I wouldn't recommend this product to anyone that desires to keep their epithelial layer intact.

    Ever since I started waxing, I've been looking for a cheap razor to use just incase i needed to shave. I came across the Bic Soleil Razor. It was $7.99 but I had a $5 coupon for it so it was much cheaper. When I first opened the package, I was skeptical. I felt the handle and it felt cheap and rubbery. The grip did not help me at all because of the way I held my razor
    However, this razor did give me a smooth shave, as smooth as my 4 or 5 blade. I was disappointed that it couldn't pivot very well though. However, it did its job and i was able to go 4 days without shaving!
