Rolling With It: Rolling Razor (review)

This week has been one day of crazy after another. I am soooo ready for a nice long weekend. But even though I am completely overscheduled, overstretched and overwhelmed; most of the things going on are good: singing, blogging, friends, etc. So in the midst of freaking out, I'm also feeling very grateful.

So...um...it's kinda hard for me to review something called "Rolling Razor" without summoning up at least a few puns and cheesy references. Just to get it out of my system…

- Through all the stress I'm really rolling with the punches.
- I've been on kind of a roll lately and getting lots of stuff done.
- This weekend, though, I am totally ready to roll out the fun.
- But I'll probably too tired to do more than roll over. (ba dum bum!)

Whew, all better! Now I can be mature and properly review all the cool stuff I tried from Rolling Razor.

Blurb: Rolling Razor's commitment to form and function begins with the handle. Beyond the research we put into providing you with the most advanced handle design in over a century, it was critical that our users have assorted style options to choose from. Not everyone has the same taste so why wouldn't we want you to choose the Rolling Razor that best suits your dynamic personality and lifestyle? No other razor offers such a range of choices to meet your needs.

Customized Blades (Sensitive Skin)

Blurb: Rolling Razor is the only company that offers a customized shaving experience depending on your skin type. Whether you choose to use Rolling Razor’s regular, sensitive, or bump eliminator cartridges, once you find your perfect style, you are on your way to the perfect shave. The convex shape of Rolling Razor's unique cartridges for women was specifically engineered to eliminate friction and move comfortably and easily along the contours of a woman's body, staying in close contact with every angle, even the concave hard-to-reach areas around the ankle, behind the knees, in the bikini area and under the arms. The blades in the sensitive cartridges are set at a different angle to the regular Rolling Razor cartridges. They provide a close and even more gentle shave for sensitive skin that needs a little extra TLC.

Women's Pomegranate Shaving Cream

Blurb: Created with a woman's unique sensibilities in mind, our softest and creamiest Shaving Cream for women has been formulated for maximum protection against nicks, cuts, red bumps, ingrown hairs and skin irritation. Your underarm and bikini line irritation are a thing of the past - our Shaving Cream is hands-down the softest and creamiest on the market. Formulated with antioxidant-rich Pomegranate, one of nature's oldest anti-aging resources, the Rolling Razor Shaving Cream lather leaves even the most difficult skin soft and silky smooth by using our unique blend of technologically advanced shaving elements to lubricate and nourish the skin while enabling the Rolling Razor blades to get a deeper, more precise cut as it glides over your contours. By itself or with the Rolling Razor Shaving Oil, the Rolling Razor Shaving Cream will lengthen the life of your shave and leave your skin in a state of ecstasy.

Women's Pomegranate Shaving Oil

Blurb: While the Rolling Razor is the ultimate extension of one's own arm, Rolling Razor's industry-changing Shaving Oil is pure lubricating nectar for your skin. Perfect for all skin types, our shaving oil prepares your skin for a decadent shaving experience by softening the hair, while opening and cleansing your pores as you shave without buildup or clogging. Formulated with antioxidant-rich Pomegranate, one of nature's oldest anti-aging resources, our advanced shaving oil technology allows you to see every precise motion, which not only offers the closest, smoothest and most comfortable shave you've ever had, but it also guarantees to reduce and eliminate shaving irritation, nicks and cuts, razor burn, and red bumps.

Have to say, this handle design has it all over the traditional kind. Super super easy to maneuver; and I was able to get the razor really close in all the "curvy" places without any nicks. I got a close shave on my legs; and my ankles and backs of the knees were unbelievably easy to reach. I also love that there are blades on both sides – especially for the underarm area. I was able to "roll" the razor back and forth in different directions (which made for a speedier, closer shave). The shaving cream worked really well (and smelled good); but I thought the shaving oil was especially stellar. It's absolutely perfect for the bikini area because you can actually see what you're doing. It's also very moisturizing and soothing.

Just to be extra fancy, the Rolling Razor comes in lots of cute colors and finishes. There's also a set of products, creams and oils for men too. You can check it all out the website (and be sure to take a look at the Promotions page while you're there).
