![]() The lotion is formulated with white willow bark extract, a natural source of salicylic acid, and papaya fruit extract that work together to gently exfoliate and optimize hydration. It’ll be perfect to place this near the bathroom sink to hold my razor at arm’s reach.īody Lotion. To make my skin soft, smooth, and hydrated without any stickiness after shaving, they included this body lotion! The suction cup at the back of the grip really holds and sticks well. Shower Hook. Also included in the kit is a textured rubber grip for easy storage of your razor. It comes with a German-engineered five-blade cartridge. The blades also include hydrating strips with aloe vera, which is best for sensitive skin! Also, you can easily take off the blade cartridge. The razor also has a weighted ergonomic handle that makes it easier to hold. This is in no way, shape, or form sponsored.The razor has a flexible hinge that holds the blade cartridge perfectly. Thank you to the folks behind Flamingo who recognized that I needed a better shave. Just five sharp blades that plow through that mid-winter stubble like a dream. It’s five blades and not a lot of unnecessary strips and bands around the circumference. Okay, so apparently I have made it this far and not even mentioned how well the blades actually cut your hair. Needless to say, when I realized they now sell Flamingo products at Target I immediately, without hesitation, bought the full-sized can of cushiony shave gel. ![]() It lathers up like a creamy dream and actually stays on my leg while I hobble around in the shower trying to reach my ankles. Yes, I believe the scent is sandalwood and money. You know, the one you would never stay in if it was your own money, but you’re glad you got the chance? It smells like that $500 a night hotel in New York City. Usually I’m not much for shave gels or creams because I don’t like the smell of fake raspberries or powder. Now, I ordered the Flamingo Shave Set from their website for $16 with free shipping and it came with the handle in your choice of lovely, non-cloying colors, two 5-blade razor cartridges which I believe are made in Germany, a razor hanger, a travel sized flamingo shave gel, and a decent sized skin smoothing body lotion all housed in a translucent travel bag. Yes!! It was so gross that I would usually toss the handle every year or so and then head back to the store to select yet another neon blue or grape purple handle that I resented. One of the features I love the most about the Flamingo Razor is that the handle is one solid piece unlike the Venus which has these little rubber grips and tabs that breed black mold like nobody’s business. My pick was the Taro, which I would describe as a light grey with a hint of lavender. ![]() Not only are the Flamingo and its replacement cartridges less expensive than the Venus, but it is available in three chic colors: Taro & Rose Gold, Mint & Gold, and Pomelo & Silver. ![]() So, imagine my great surprise and elation when I recently discovered a new kid on the block: the Flamingo Razor. If I was going to be paying that much for a razor, it should at least look glamourous enough to be at home next to the marble sink and brass faucet I have yet to afford.Īt that time, no such alternative existed. I even distinctly remember searching the internet for a nicer looking alternative about six years ago, when I got fed-up with the pool blue Venus handle and it’s $22 four-pack replacement package. You basically had two options: the brightly colored and obscenely overpriced Gillette Venus or that clumsy looking monstrosity from Schick. For years I have lamented the razor options for women here in the states. ![]()
