I also sent my pressing questions to aesthetician and skincare educator Katie Sobelman to find out more about who is a good candidate to use an electric razor, what they do best and how to select and use the best one. I read hundreds of real customers’ reviews, looking for especially positive and negative feedback on pain points like battery life, ineffective blades and durability (or a lack thereof). To learn more about electric razors and the ones most women seem to prefer, I searched for the popular models online, scouring the sites of major retailers like Ulta, Walmart and Target.

#FLAWLESS NU RAZOR REVIEWS MANUAL#

I have always used a manual razor on my legs, though I also use an old Philips trimmer as needed. I’ve personally tested IPL devices, epilators (ouch!), DIY wax strips and refillable safety razors, which are my favorite sustainable option. I’ve covered hair in every possible way, from styling it for fashion show runways to removing it for trips to the beach. My Expertiseįor over a decade now I’ve been a lifestyle reporter and editor specializing in beauty among other topics for magazines and websites like Elle, O, The Oprah Magazine, Martha Stewart Living and Allure. If you’re looking for a razor and trimmer combination, you might want a device with more attachments, but for everyday shaving I preferred the straightforward design of this razor. It snaps on and off easily and does its job effectively I didn’t get any razor burn even when I went back and forth over the same spot. I liked the SensaGuard attachment that comes with this razor for use on sensitive areas, such around the underarms and bikini line.

That’s a significantly shorter charge time than all of the razors I tested except for our best overall pick, the Philips SatinShave Prestige.

This razor’s designed to charge fully in about 3 hours, and lasts for 1 hour. The light on this one is in the right spot to illuminate your path, and it’s bright and wide. Two other razors I tested had a light, but they didn’t work very well-they actually both nicked me, even though I used them as directed. It’s so useful to have a light to better see what you’re doing and whether you’re missing any hairs. My favorite thing about this razor, aside from its familiar, intuitive design, is the LED light. I prefer that to throwing away electronics with a rechargeable battery. And given that you only need to change them out every 3 to 6 months, it’s pretty reasonable to do so at $15. Finishing Touch Flawless promotes its replacement blades on its website so that they’re easy to find.

But the replacement parts are so hard to find and so expensive (nearly the cost of a whole new razor) that I can’t imagine many people going to the trouble that means they’re essentially disposable. True, other electric razors require less frequent replacements, usually about once a year. The other thing I really liked about this razor is how straightforward the blades are to replace. Like our best overall pick, this blade snaps into a pivoting head, which follows the curves of your body more naturally than razors without this function.

It didn’t nick or tug at my skin, even the delicate skin under my arm where other razors with multiple blades and fancier foils got snagged and zinged me. The Finishing Touch Flawless Nu Razor looks like a regular manual razor, but the single blade on the business end is housed inside an 18K-gold-plated foil that you can glide up and down, not just in one direction.
