What are the benefits of the aloe vera gel on these Gillette Venus Pro ComfortGlide Sensitive Blades?
Not all Gillette Venus products contain a touch of aloe vera but there are plenty of examples, including these Gillette Venus Pro ComfortGlide razor blades, which do. The inclusion of aloe vera in the formulation of the flexible moisture bars of these Venus sensitive razor blades is that they provide extra glide when shaving. When you experience glide from your chosen Venus razor blades, it means that shaving becomes easier with a smoother experience as the blades pass over your skin. In the case of these Gillette Venus Pro ComfortGlide Sensitive refills, the aloe vera is part of the SkinCushion technology which helps to protect the skin when you shave.
Can I use Gillette Venus Sensitive razor blades with any Venus razor handle?
Not all Gillette Venus razors are compatible with one another but many are. When it comes to Gillette Venus Pro ComfortGlide blades, all of the refill cartridges in the range are compatible with any Pro ComfortGlide handle. Indeed, you can fit Gillette Venus Pro ComfortGlide Sensitive Blades to any Gillette Venus handle, whether or not it is a Pro ComfortGlide one, with the exception of those in our Pubic Hair and Skin and Simply collections.
Are these Gillette Venus Pro ComfortGlide refills suitable for wet and dry shaving?
Gillette Venus Sensitive razor blades produce enhanced lubrication from their upgraded lubrastrips but this doesn't mean that they are suited to dry shaves. It is, therefore, recommended that you always apply a suitable shaving cream or foam to the area you want to shave before activating their improved lubrastrips in water to provide even more glide. There are several Venus shaving gel products that will do the job, some of which also contain aloe vera.

Can I use these Gillette Venus Pro ComfortGlide razors without additional shaving cream or gel?
