Baby Swim Lessons Means Shaved Legs #MovesLikeNoOther

Victoria has her first swim lesson today. Honestly – I can’t wait. I’ve been DYING to get her in the pool – in a swim lesson – since the summer. I have her little suit ready. I have her personalized towel packed. I have baby shampoo and a little robe all set for her when we’re done. Believe me, Victoria is all set for her big day.

Me?

Yeah, not so much.

I’m going to let you in on a little beauty secret of mine — I shave my legs once every 2 weeks in the winter. And usually when I shave, it’s just from the knees down because I’m never in shorts, bathing suits or mini skirts without tights in the winter. I’m not kidding… when I was packing her bag last night, I suddenly remembered – UGH, I need to shave and my FULL LEG! LOL… it wasn’t something that excited me, believe me!

Since I’ll be in the pool with her – in a bathing suit – I needed to make sure I had a flawless shave. I don’t want to be “that mom” who showed up not ready for swim lessons. 🙂 I needed a good razor, one that was going to get the job done — so I was beyond excited (and VERY HAPPY) that Gillette just sent me their new razor to checkout… the NEW Gillette Venus Swirl.

Gillette Swirl Razor

This razor rocked!

I mean, it rocked.

My legs?

PERFECTLY smooth.

It’s the best contouring razor that helps capture what other razors may miss on your legs. The Venus Swirl is designed with Gillette’s revolutionary FLEXIBALL™ and has 5 individually adjusting Contour™ blades. It contours over curves for flawless skin, long-lasting smoothness and virtually no missed hairs.

That’s what I needed for my legs… for me and for Victoria.

Gillette shared with me Tips for a Flawless Shave:

– GET A GRIP – They updated their handle, so depending on how you hold your razor, you’ll see the finger rest is repositioned slightly further from the cartridge compared to other Venus razors.

– GO SLOW – The Venus Swirl features new FlexiBall technology for a totally unique multi-dimensional movement that is different than any razor on the market today.

– PRESS LIGHTLY – This is their most advanced blade technology, so the blades are thinner and finer and will provide you with an ultra-close shave (JUST WHAT I NEEDED).

– LATHER UP – They recommend using the razor with the new Venus Shave Gel with a Touch of Olay to help your razor glide over your skin.

The shaving system retails for approx. $12.59, with refill blades of 4 retailing for approx. $20.99.

My legs thank you Gillette! 🙂
