great tips... i dont usually have big shaving disasters and i often dont get nicks and cuts but if i do it is very uncomfortable and because its a nice clean cut it doesnt stop bleeding and when ur in the shower the soap and water runs into it making it sting even more so some really good tips here to avoid that unpleasantness..

Great tips. Don't remember my worst shaving disaster, but my last shaving disaster was trying to shave to closely around a deep cut on my shin and the blade caught the scab and ripped it right off. I still have a lovely little scar there

This has been very helpful to me! I often shave with venus gilette products as they're very good for dry sensitive skin

Years and years ago, before Gillette Venus were on the scene, I had one of those horrible shavers where you had to put the blade in then screw it in. eeeeeeeeek, they were horrible. I remember being in a hurry as I was going out and slipped with the blade as I was shaving my leg. I had never seen so much blood for a cut....nearly fainted lol. Eventually went out with a big strapping bandage on my leg.....not a good look with the dress either lol.

Awesome tips! I remember first time I shaved I didn't know what i was doing so I cut myself really deep on the most obvious part of the leg - right on the shin and you could see something that looked like bone (although I don't think it was that deep so don't know what it was). Anyway, it was not pretty and took ages to heal!!

That was a great video guys, thanks for the tips. Will definately give this shaver a go as the nips and cuts I have achieved from shaving over the years have not been pleasant.

I hate it when the hair starts growing back through and my skin itches like crazy. I have found using an AHA body wash and moisturiser regularly really helps. If it does get itchy the MSM cream by MooGoo does wonders at soothing the itch :)

im obviously doing something right then!i use exactly the same products as recommended in video, but i also exfoliate afterwards to even smoother softer skin,and it seems to stay smoother for a few days longer than just shaving
