Gillette Venus & Razor Product Review

Recently i received a Gillette Venus & Olay from Influenster. I started to use it immediately. This is the best razor i ever came across and use. Simply because i dont need any shaving cream. The 5 blades just leave my legs smooth and clean with just 1 stroke. On top of that the moisturizer just leave it my skin smooth and silky with the plus point of making my leg glowing too. When i read more about the product, apparently they have 2 very important elements found in Olay product and the best part they intergrate those awesome elements in creating this Razor.

1) Petrolatum helps lock in skins moisture for less dryness
2) Glycerin helps offer that goddess glow.

Below are the product details

Venus & Olay Razor

For the first time ever, Gillette Venus, a global leader in female shaving, and Olay, a global leader in skincare, are coming together to deliver a gold standard in shaving with the new Gillette Venus & Olay razor. Venus’ best shaving technology works with Olay Moisture Bars, offering women best-of-both-worlds shaving and skin expertise. Olay Moisture Bars help lock-in moisture to your skin for less dryness, and with every smoothing stroke, Venus’ five blades shave you close.

Product Details
  • Venus’ five-bladed razors shave you close and adjust to women’s curves for a smooth and comfortable shave, even over tricky shaving areas like knees and ankles.
  • Olay Moisture Bars contain skin-enhancing elements found in Olay products: Petrolatum helps lock in skin’s moisture for less dryness and Glycerin helps offer that goddess glow! Just wet the razor to release a light lather – no separate shave cream required.
  • As with most Venus razors, new Venus & Olay also features a rounded, pivoting head designed for women’s curves, and a soft-grip ergonomic handle for confident control, even in wet and soapy environment

Where to Buy
A refillable Venus & Olay with one replacement cartridge sells for approximately $8.99-$10.99. Packages of three replacement cartridges are available for about $14.99 - $19.49.
Venus & Olay will be available starting March 15, 2012 at food, drug, convenience and mass merchandise stores throughout the United States.  


You think with an awesome product like this, it must be hard to use. I kid you not, all you need is just wet the razor and start using. Besides that, the handle are built in soft-grip ergonomic handle for confident control.

After i finish using the one i have in my bath room, i will definitely get more. This is going to be my permanent must have product.

Influenster Love VoxBox


I received my very first Influenster Love VoxBox today. I am very excited to try all the products in my box and give my best honest reviews possible. As a start, these are some of the pictures that what i got from Love VoxBox.

Gillette Venus & Olay Razor $8.99-$10.99
I always eyeing for this razor whenever i go to CVS. Always wanted to try but always afraid it is not worth the money that i was about to pay. Since i got this from my Influenster Love VoxBox, the first thing i did was to hit the shower and start testing this product. It amazed me how this product works and towards the end of the shower, i basically have very smooth legs. On top of that, no shaving cream needed.                                                                                                                                                       My verdict: Definitely getting myself this the next time i go to CVS. 

Kiss Nail Dress - Fashion That Sticks $6.99
I generally not a nail polish person because i am suck at giving myself one and not interested in paying $20 for a manicure at the salon. Kiss Nail Dress have this wonderful product that all u need to do is to stick it on your nails and toes and shape it. That's all you  need to do. Sound simple huh! i guess it is a good idea because you won't get messy with nail polish and spending time drying it . This is just hassle free for you. They come in 18 different styles. All pretty cool and wacky. Like i said earlier, i am not a nail polish girl, hence this product is interesting to me. On top of that, they claimed, it will last for up to 10 days. Another a plus selling point for me. This definitely worth trying and for the price of $6.99, i think is a great deal
My verdict: Will try but not going to buy again because i prefer no design and pastel color.

Stash Tea Herbal Tea Sampler $3.50
I am always a tea lover and this product is just nice for me especially at this cold winter in upstate NY. There's total 18 teabags in a box with 9 flavor to choose on. Acai Berry, Blueberry Superfruit, Chamomile, Cinnamon Apple Chamomile, Lemon Ginger, Licorice Spice, Mango Passionfruit, Peppermint, and Wild Raspberry Hibiscus. I think this is a good deal and will save me a couple of bucks because the price is right for me. On top of that, they have so many flavors for so many different purposes. As i am going to move from NY to California in 3 weeks time, i am very stress with all the packing and cleaning. When i woke up from my afternoon nap today, my tummy just bothering me. I immediately make myself a cup of tea - Lemon Ginger flavor. I kid you not, it does the trick, the tea actually did calm down my upset tummy. Lemon and Ginger always have that element  in calming down the upset tummy. So i cannot wait to try other flavors that will give me other types of benefit. The next time when my stress level hitting the roof, i will definitely try the Chamomile flavor because chamomile is well known for stress relieve.
My verdict: Love it, and will buy it.

Ghirardelli Gourmet Milk Creamy Devotion Bar $2.99
Another way to release stress is by having some chocolate. Yup, chocolate will do the trick. I dont like sweet stuff and always be very careful with the kind of chocolate i choose. I normally will go for Dark Chocolate. I am a little worried that i may not like this Ghirardelli Milk Creamy chocolate bar since i dont like sweet stuff. For me, this is a little sweet for me but not overpowering the flavor. It is nice and very smooth. It just melted in my mouth and it does makes me feel good.                                                         My verdict: Definitely will buy Ghirardelli chocolate because it is the best but not their milk chocolate because i dont like sweet stuff. I will buy their Dark Chocolate instead :)

Truvia Natural Sweetener $3.99(40ct)
Truvia was mentioned before in Dr. Oz. It was also recommended on his show as a replacement to sugar.(Definitely good for diabetes patients and weight watchers) I always wanted to try but i never buy it because i still got lots of regular sugar at home. Few days ago, i am out of sugar and i dont see the point buying more regular sugar since i am moving soon. I just want to save a couple of bucks. I thought, i will just use honey to replace sugar if i need any of it. I was cooking spicy shrimps today and the problem with this dish is that, it need at least 6 teaspoons of sugar as one of the ingredient. So, today is my chance to try out Truvia. To my surprise, all i need is about 2 and a half packet of Truvia to get the same kind of taste like i normally do. I was happy with my dish and it makes me feel good the fact that i am cutting my sugar intake at least 50% than usual.


My verdict: Definitely love this sweetener and worth buying. I guess this is my first step to healthy living without compromise the taste of my food when i am cooking !





Overall i am really happy with Influenster for sending me this awesome box.
