    Ever since Gillette came out with the flexiball razor for men I've been wondering when they'd come up with one for us women. This year Gillette surprised us with the new Venus Swirl Flexiball razor just for us gals. I got my flexiball razor and two five blade razors at Wal-Mart and I only paid $9.97 for the set. I’ve seen it in other stores sells ads selling for as much as $14.99 and that’s on sale! So if you're going to try this razor out, I suggest you look around for the best price in your area. The new Venus Swirl is a high-design razor that sets a new standard in shaving. It’s the first and only women’s razor with a rotating flexiball head and five individually adjusting contour blades that help you to shave those hard-to-reach places and capture hairs that other razors might miss. Each blade has water activated moisture glide serum that allows the blade to gently glide over your skin and the handle has an enhanced grip leaving less chance of it slipping from your hand while you shave. I discovered that the Venus five blade razors will also fit onto this new flexiball razor handle, so if you happen to have some Venus blades left when you do buy your new flexiball razor set, you can still use them on this razor getting the same effect. I was very happy with how nicely this razor went over my knees, my ankles and even my underarms and it didn't miss one hair. I didn't get one nick or cut no matter how hard the area was to shave in the past and it left my legs feeling just as soft as could be. I thought they couldn't make a better razor for women than the Venus razor that I love, but I was wrong. In my opinion the new Venus Swirl flexiball razor is the best new women’s razor on the market today and if you haven't tried it yet you really should. I'm sure you'll love it as much as I do.

    I like the vibrant purple, easy-to-grip, non-slip handle. I think the 5 Contour razor blades give a superior shave, but I’m not sure that I’m completely sold on the ‘Flexiball technology’. The razor did pivot and contour nicely over all the tricky areas (knees and ankles) and my legs were certainly silky smooth and stubble-free after. There was no pulling or scraping, or nics and cuts, no razor burn. The MoistureGlide Serum works nicely too.... in fact, I can comfortably shave with just the razor and serum alone. I’m just not sure that all of this was the result of the Flexiball. And...this razor, and the replacement cartridges are pricier than their competition. Because I can achieve comparable results for less money without the Flexiball, I probably wouldn’t buy this product on a regular basis. If I came across a good sale, then yes. Otherwise…I’m probably going give the ‘Flexiball technology’ a pass. Recommended: Yes…when on sale

    I received a free Venus Swirl razor with flexiball technology from BzzAgent, in exchange for an honest review.

    I tried out the Venus Swirl razor along with the Venus Swirl Touch of Olay shave gel.
    Razor: I liked the feel and the handling of the razor. It has a soft silicone non-slip grip and it features a ball so that the razor pivots over all the contours of the legs. It shaved nicely with no nicks or cuts and most importantly it goes over the knees. Most times with other razors I go over my knees but when I am out of the shower I see that I've missed the knees.

    Shave Gel: the gel dispenses nicely. It doesn't come out too fast and gives a nice lather. It has a "touch of Olay" that does leave a nice softness but it's not enough that you don't need to moisturize too.

    All this being said - the price of the replacement blades would make me not buy this product on a regular basis. If I had a coupon or a good sale, maybe. It is $24 for 4 replacement blades at my local big box retailer.

    I was not impressed with this Razor, it slipped out of my hand constantly, the shave was not the best either. I would rather use my mens razors still.

    Awesome razor!! My legs are so smooth! It glides really nicely over the skin and gets into the curvier parts of your legs (knees). I especially like this razor for the bikini area. The blade is removable as all Venus' are...I personally have a few more razors left of my Venus I was using and they fit into the swirl no problem (the razor is much better with the swirl)
