FAQs

How long does a blade last?

Blade life varies depending on shaving frequency and technique. However, the Lubrastrip indicator will signal when it's time for a replacement.

Are these blades compatible with other Gillette handles?

These blades are compatible with Gillette Fusion5 ProGlide handles.

How do I clean the razor?

Rinse the razor thoroughly under running water after each shave to remove hair and shaving cream residue. Allow it to air dry completely before storing.

What is the Lubrastrip?

The Lubrastrip is a pre-lubricated strip on the blade cartridge that releases lubricants to enhance glide and reduce friction during shaving.

How do I know when to replace the blade?

The Lubrastrip fades from orange to white when the blade needs to be replaced.

Can I use these blades with sensitive skin?

While the blades are designed for a comfortable shave, individual skin sensitivities vary. If you have sensitive skin, use a sensitive skin shaving cream and shave gently.

Troubleshooting

Razor feels like it's pulling or tugging.

The blade may be dull; replace the blade cartridge.

Lubrastrip fades quickly.

Ensure the blade is rinsed thoroughly after each stroke. Replace the blade if the Lubrastrip disappears before expected.

Experiencing skin irritation after shaving.

Ensure you are using a good quality shaving cream and shaving in the direction of hair growth. Consider applying a post-shave balm.
