Advantages: Accurate, smooth and pain free

Disadvantages: A little heavy for travelling around with, replacement blades costly

Always wanting to get as much as I can for free I received an email offering a free Wilkinson Sword Quattro for Women which I had onl been looking at a few days before in Boots.

I quickly went to the website and applied for the free razor and then I waited and waited and waited and finally the razor landed on my door step. I had previously used the Wilkinson Sword Intuition (also previously reviewed) but found the prices for replacement blades ridiculous compared with the price to buy a brand new razor again, so here I was making do with mens free sample razors that actually worked a lot better!


*~*The Packaging*~*
As mine was a free sample it simply came in a cardboard outer sleeve within a plain white envelope so I didn't have any nasty struggles with that awful plastic that is impossible to open, however I had been looking at these in Boots and saw that

*~*The Razor*~*
I instantly loved this razor as it was 2 shades of bright pink which meant it was a hit with me nice and feminine but the first thing that I noticed was the weight of the razor this was really heavy compared to all the other razors out there this must be due to the metal handle.
The Quattro razor is the first women's razor to have 4 blades which boasts unbeatable performance.

*~*Using the Razor*~*
I tend to use soap to shave my legs and ensure that I work up a good lather before the blade hits the skin. The Quattro was an experience in shaving that I had never had before, I didn't even feel the blade on my skin I just felt the razor glide up my leg removing the hair as it went and I didn't even miss any awkward places as the razor was not chunky it was easy to use and manouevre around the back of the ankle.
The razor as most do had a strip that claimed to condition skin and this also contained aloe and vitamin e to soothe after shaving and I have to say that my legs feel wonderful they are hair free and smooth which are my main requirements in hair removal and am glad this has arrived in time for the summer.
The razor hand swivels so it moves with you as you shave your legs and underarms and what's more if you are clumsy like me the safety wires protect against any accidental nicks or cuts.

The razor is a lot easier and quicker to use than any others I have come across. The pivoting head follows the contours of your body to give a smooth shave.
aloe and vitamin E is extremely good for your skin as shaving can dry your skin out especially in this warm weather we are currently experiencing.

****How long do the blades last?****
I shave every other day or when I feel the need and the blades seem to last forever, ideally you should change the blades when they appear blunt as using a blunt razor can cause irritation to the skin and lead to rashes which could be painful.

****Further Information****

The Quattro for women is made by Wilkinson Sword who have been in steel crafting for over 100 years. Their British Heritage and expertise in blade technology has allowed them to understand the diverse needs of our customers which is why they provide a wide range of shaving solutions to suit almost everybody.

I cannot comment on the price of the razors as mine was free but they can be bought in supermarket, chemists and many other places so shop around for the best offer, blades vary from £3.95 - £5.49 depending on the shop you decide to purchase from.
