The Gillette ProShield Razor Blades are engineered for men seeking an exceptionally close and comfortable shave with minimal irritation. Featuring innovative dual lubrication before and after the blades, combined with an anti-friction coating, these cartridges work seamlessly with compatible Gillette handles, including those with FlexBall technology, to glide smoothly over contours. While offering superior skin protection and a precision trimmer for tricky areas, remember that optimal performance relies on timely blade replacement.
Dual Lubrication Strips: Lubrication positioned both before and after the blades to create a protective layer, shielding skin from irritation during each stroke.
Ultra-Sharp Blades with Anti-Friction Coating: Designed for an incredibly close shave, the blades are coated to reduce friction and enhance comfort.
FlexBall Technology Compatibility: These blades are designed to work optimally with Gillette FlexBall razor handles, allowing the head to pivot and respond to facial contours for virtually every hair.
Precision Trimmer: Located on the back of the cartridge, this single blade is perfect for precisely defining sideburns, shaving under the nose, or tackling other tricky areas.
Closely Spaced Blades: The blades are positioned close together to distribute pressure evenly across the skin, contributing to a more comfortable shave.
Battery-Powered Micro-pulses (with Power Razor Handles): When used with compatible Gillette ProShield Power razor handles, soothing micro-pulses help reduce friction, allowing the razor to glide even more smoothly over the skin.

The Gillette ProShield Razor Blades are designed to elevate your daily shaving routine. The dual lubrication is the standout feature, noticeably reducing friction and creating a protective glide, making them ideal for individuals prone to razor burn or sensitive skin. You'll experience a smooth pass, even on repeat strokes, as the lubrication acts as a buffer.
When paired with a FlexBall razor handle, the blades effortlessly hug the curves of your face and neck. This means fewer missed hairs and less need for multiple passes, which further contributes to irritation reduction. Shaving around the jawline, chin, and neck becomes significantly easier and more effective.
For detailing, the precision trimmer on the back of the cartridge is invaluable. It allows for crisp lines along sideburns, shaping beard edges, or neatly cleaning up under the nose. This feature transforms the razor from a primary shaver into a versatile grooming tool.
For optimal performance:
Prep Your Skin: For best results, shave during or after a warm shower. Apply a generous amount of shave gel or foam.
Angle and Pressure: Hold the razor at a comfortable angle and use light, even pressure. Let the blades and lubrication do the work.
Rinse Frequently: Rinse the blade head under warm running water frequently during your shave to prevent hair and cream buildup.
Shave Direction: Shave in the direction your hair grows first to reduce irritation, then against the grain if you desire an even closer shave.
Attach Blade: Simply align the new ProShield blade cartridge with the slot on your Gillette ProShield or Fusion handle and push until you hear a click, indicating it's securely attached.
Remove Old Blade: To remove a used blade, press the release button on the razor handle and slide the cartridge off.
Gillette ProShield Razor Handles: These blades are specifically designed for and fully compatible with all Gillette ProShield razor handles, including FlexBall models.
Gillette Fusion Family Handles: ProShield blades are also compatible with all Gillette Fusion, Fusion5, and Fusion ProGlide handles, offering versatile use across the Fusion product line.
Rinse Thoroughly: After each shave, rinse the blade cartridge thoroughly under running water. Do not tap the razor against the sink, as this can damage the precision-engineered blades.
Shake Off Excess Water: Gently shake off excess water from the blade. Do not wipe the blades, as this can dull them prematurely.
Air Dry and Store: Allow the blades to air dry completely. Store your razor in a dry place, away from excessive humidity, ideally in a stand or holder to protect the blades.
