Schick Hydro Silk Razor Review



I am a BzzAgent and as one we are assigned campaigns where we get to try and sample products for free. Recently I joined a campaign for the new Schick Hydro Silk Razor. I received the product in the mail a couple of weeks ago and I have to admit I was a little skeptical.

I was sent what is called the starter kit. In it is the razor handle, two cartridges  and a suction hanger to keep your razor up and out of reach. The first thing I immediately loved was the hanger it came with. I have a one year old and she just loves to act like mommy...so being able to hang my razor up out of her reach is a big plus in my book. The next thing...the long and shapely, almost sexy contour of the handle. It fits well in the palm of your hand, not to short, and not too long.

The actual cartridge has five blades! for a closer shave, which is fantastic. Normally I have to buy a men's razor to get more than three! On the package it explains that the cartridge has a hydrating water activated serum that leaves your skin feeling smooth, which is great, until its on your skin. This was the only thing I did not like about the razor. The serum was more like a sticky goo. That is not a pleasant feeling.

Even though I fought the goo...after I was finished shaving my legs were oh so smooth and sexy!

The honey most definitely appreciated the smoothness. 

The shave lasted 4 days before I started to feel stubble again...which is amazing. Normally I have to shave everyday.

The razor normally runs about $10 in most department stores, which is a wonderful price. The cartridges run about $15 for a 4 pack, which I think is reasonable considering I spend at least $20 a month on disposables.
This is definitely a razor I can see myself using permanently. Even if it feels a little gooey!


I have not been paid by BzzAgent, or the Schick Hydro Silk Razor manufacturers to write this review. This is 100% how I feel about the razor! You should try it!

Feelings Never Change

It has been almost 2 years since we held you last. The reality hit me like a truck this afternoon... I miss you just as much right now as I did 2 years ago. My body aches to feel you again. To see your smile. To kiss your fat face. They ache just as strongly now as they did 2 years ago. The pain hasn't lessened, the longing hasn't passed...and I still think it is not fair that I can't leave work and pick you up for a fun filled weekend. Time hasn't healed any of our wounds. They still seep with longing, pain, and emptiness. I can still envision the nightmare facing us at the end of the hallway at the hospital. Your tiny frame in a massive bed hooked to so many life saving devices. The incredible high of hearing your heart was beating; they'd revived you. Thinking there was a chance; only to be told that there wasn't. She had hurt you more than they could fix. That incredible low of knowing you wouldn't get to go home with us ever again. I can s

Chobani, Bondi Bands, Allergies ...Oh My!

So recently I have had the amazing privilege and joy of trying out a couple of awesome products. I cannot wait to share either! GIVEAWAY TIME! I received a case of Chobani Flips to review...and as we all know yogurt is a staple in most healthy diets...especially mine. I have been a Chobani nut for over a year now. It is one of my favorite and most filling snacks, not to mention the protein ! It is a quick and easy breakfast if needed, or an awesome post-workout snack. And now that it is summertime it is super refreshing on a hot summer day! There were so many yummy types to try...and I could not wait to dig in! There were two of each, so 12 in total! They are fair in calories, low in sugar, and taste great. The day I got the case I did a little jig, and then hunted down a spoon. The first flip I sampled was the Almond Coco Loco ...                           IT WAS DIVINE!!!...and my favorite! Second to that was the Key Lime Crumble ! I have eaten all of them but

Tax (Heart) Break

It's tax season again, and I sat down tonight and began working on my taxes. As I was working through the dependents questions, one hit me right in the heart. The question asks if you had a child die the year before. You don't give that question much thought if you have never been to a child's funeral. That question made me stop and think about how fortunate I am to select no. And how not all of us are quite so lucky. The guilt that ate as me, when I selected no, knowing that a year ago my sister had to select yes. It has been almost a year since Nora was arrested for the 1st Degree murder of my nephew John. If you know us, you know all too well what happened to our baby. If not, you can scan back through several of my other blogs and get a pretty good representation of the nightmare our family has been living in.
