Schick Hydro Silk Razor

Do you want silky smooth legs?! Then continue reading this review of the Schick Hydro Silk Razor! Each of the cartridges are filled with moisturizer serum that is activated when placed under water. It also contains Shea butter and is suppose to hydrate your legs longer than any other razor! The razor contains 5 blades which moves independently to help keep your skin soft! This is to help protect the skin from irritation because with 5 blades, it allows you to have fewer strokes. The "neck" part moves with your leg. Meaning it gets to those hard to reach areas like your knee. The last part, have you ever placed your razor under the water and then it slips through your hands? Well, the Schick razor has a rubber grip that allows you to keep hold of it better! Oh but wait, the starter kit also came with a suction to place it on your bathroom walls to store the razor!

I have decided to compare the Schick Hydro Silk Razor to the Original Venus Razor in which I have used many times.

The Venus Razor as 3 blades and it also has a rubber grip to keep it from slipping out of your hands. It has a blue line that will disappear when the serum has dissipated. It has a pivoting head for close shave around and on the knee. It too has a shower holder but it is much bulkier than the Schick Hydro Silk suction holder.

I have used this razor for years. The blue strip disappears quite fast, leaving bumps on my legs constantly. The Venus has 3 blades, whereas the Schick has 5 blades. The Venus gets a close shave, but it does not get close enough like the Schick. My skin feels silky soft after using both razors, but the Shea butter on the Schick makes my legs feel softer for a longer period of time. Both have a rubber grip, but the Schick has a thicker rubber grip that allows you to grip it more comfortably. They both have pivoting heads, but the Schick pivots father back to really get that close shave. As far as the shower holder, the one that came with the Venus was much bulkier and kept falling from my shower wall. I kept bumping it because it wasn't compact like the Schick razor. 

Now the only thing that I noticed is that shaving without shaving cream, both razors left my skin with bumps, or razor burn. BUT, the Venus left bumps on my legs even with shaving cream, whereas with the Schick, my legs were very soft.

Here you can see how smooth looking my leg is. This is using shaving cream with the Schick Hydro Silk Razor.

Here, you can see slight bumps and irritation from using just the razor. (But, it still has slight smoothness to it, I just do not like how it left bumps)

So, I would make the change to the Schick Hydro Silk Razor, your legs will thank you!

Glade Oil Diffuser and Fragrance Smackdown!

Is your house inviting? Mine wasn't at first! My husband worked at a rubber and plastic company and his clothes always smell like really strong paint! Below is a picture of what he has to wear. Can you imagine the smell that comes from these?

So much dirt!

So much paint!

The glade expressions fragrance mist releases a long lasting mist of fragrance. The gentle mist will create layers of freshness throughout your home.

My personal experience:
One spray will make the room smell refreshing and even the colors of the bottle will make it look good. Specially sitting next to some candles! A single spray is not overpowering and the bottle has a unique shape. Although, sometimes the spray part sticks a little so it can be hard to push it in. If you do more than one spray for each room, it can become very overpowering.

Now let us talk about the oil diffuser. The oil diffuser releases long lasting fragrances. Not only does it smell wonderful, the design of the diffuser will fit into any ones decor! Each of the starter kits include one bamboo holder, one diffuser card and one oil bottle.

My personal experience with the oil diffuser:
The design is a great accent to any room, even the bathroom! This time, the smell is not overpowering and won't become overpowering later on. It works fast and you can smell it as soon as you walk into the room. You can also keep the holder and just buy the refills. Can you say money saver? Also it is very easy to set up. Although it is easy to put together, the refill card seems a bit flimsy and sometimes it is difficult to place the refill card into the scent holder because of how flimsy it is. It is only one type of design, but then again with only one look, it can look good anywhere in the home.

All in all, I am in love with both of these Glade Products. It makes my house more inviting and I do not have to worry about my husbands work clothes ruining the refreshing smell of our home! I would recommend these products! Defiantly check them out!
