Gillette ProShield Power Razor Blade Refills, 4 Pack

How should you maintain ProShield Power razor ProBLADES?

For optimal performance, clean your razor regularly, rinsing it after every few strokes. Always let the water run through the cartridge from the back to the front to remove any trapped hairs. Don't tap it on a hard surface to dislodge hairs or water, as that will damage the cartridge. Also, never wipe it on a towel to remove moisture, as that can shorten the life of the PROBLADES. Instead, gently shake off excess water and leave it to air dry. Store it safely, preferably vertically in a designated holder like a razor stand or a mini hanger. If you're travelling, for protection and convenience, take your razor with you in the ProGlide Travel Case which is designed for durability.

How often should you replace ProShield Power PROBLADES?

ProShield Power blades are designed to be long-lasting. You'll know it's time to change your PROBLADES if the shave feels less comfortable. To change your razor cartridge, simply push the yellow and black easy-release button at the back of the head and press a new cartridge into place. When you hear the click, you're good to go! To be sure that you've always got replacement blades to hand, subscribe to the Gillette Club. The 'starter kit' comes with a handle, cartridge, shave gel and a travel case, and you'll get regular deliveries of refills. For best results, alongside ProShield PROBLADES we recommend applying a Gillette PRO Sensitive prep.

Gillette's sharpest blades for a reduced-friction shave

ProShield cartridges contain low cutting force blades (*blades 1 to 4), coated with an anti-friction layer. Thinner than a surgeon's scalpel, the blades cut with low resistance, minimising tug and pull. Resting on a spring-mounted base, the blades automatically adapt to skin irregularities, offering a clean, close and comfortable shave.

Outstanding lubrication to cushion the skin

Gillette's iconic Lubrastrip provides the ProShield Power cartridge with lubrication both before and after the blades. Made from pre-lubricated material, this yellow, cushioning Lubrastrip is activated when wet, slowly releasing its ingredients to offer a slick, smooth glide and help shield the skin from irritation.

Innovative microcomb for optimal cutting

ProShield Power cartridges feature a microcomb, positioned between the microfins and the blades. The microslots are designed to gently guide the hairs to the blades, preparing them for optimal cutting, reducing tug and pull. Helping the blades capture virtually every hair, the microcomb is a feature of Gillette's most advanced cartridges.

Blade stabilisation for shaving performance

The innovative blade stabiliser featured on the ProShield Power's cartridge helps to maintain an optimal distance between the 5 blades. Positioned in the centre of the cartridge, this unique feature is designed to prevent the blades from moving laterally, helping to manage skin bulging in to the blades. This short and accurate distance makes for a low-friction, comfortable shave.

Why Choose ProShield Power Razor Blades?

A comfortable shave that doesn't compromise on efficiency

ProShield Power blades offer expert shaving, with incredible closeness and comfort. Featuring a number of Gillette's advanced features, including a microcomb, ultra-thin blades, rear precision trimmer and unique lubrication technology, these blades are an excellent choice for a comfortable, reduced-friction shave. Designed to be used with a ProShield Power Razor handle, they also fit the handles from the rest of the PRO family, as well as those from the Fusion5 and SkinGuard families.

How do I keep my Gillette ProShield Power Razor Blades sharp for as long as possible?

All of the ProShield range is designed to offer value for money and be long-lasting. That said, you can make your Gillette ProShield Power blades last longer by using lubricating shaving products when you shave. Whether you are using men's razor blades from the Gillette ProShield Power Value Pack or the Gillette ProShield Razor - 9 Pack, the effect of foam or gel to lubricate your shaves adds glide and helps to prevent unwanted nicks from occurring on your razor blades. It also helps your Lubrastrips to last longer and to delay the onset of dullness.

What other Gillette Razors are compatible with the ProShield Power Razor Cartridge?

Gillette ProShield blades are compatible with the handles from the Fusion5 and SkinGuard ranges. However, they will not fit with all Gillette razor handles, including the King C. Gillette range, for example.

What shaving products are best to use with my Gillette ProShield Power Razor Blades?

If you don't shave regularly, then we would recommend checking out our razors, blades and trimmers to find a suitable trimmer you can trim your facial hair with. This will make it easier to subsequently shave with your Gillette ProShield Power blades. Be sure to choose a suitable shaving gel or foam before you shave and try using a face wash, too, so that you are ready to shave whenever it suits you. After shaving, make sure you use a post-shave balm or moisturiser. Something from Gillette's pre and post-shaving products range would be ideal to help restore the skin's natural barrier.
