A review: The best razor in all the land

Ladies, it’s time to chuck your old razor and meet Billie. She is the Chanel of razors.

I have tried every razor under the sun and all it’s left me with are razor bumps, irritation and money wasted. Until I met Billie. She is a razor subscription service who only charges $9 for the most magical, life changing shaving experience you’ve ever had. I know subscriptions can be a little sus sometimes but with Billie you can choose a plan that is flexible and works for you. Since I only shave once or twice a week, I opted for the one that delivers extra razor heads every three months. If I may add, $9 every three months for some extra razor heads is waaaaay cheaper than what I used to pay at Duane Reade.

It was a rainy, dreary day when I received my Billie box. I blissfully skipped my way down to the doorstep to rip the box open. To my delight, inside was an adorable pouch decorated with fun illustrations and glistening iridescent lining that held the most precious pink & purple razor I have ever seen.  Along with the razor was a holder so she can stick to the shower wall (hello convenience), an extra razor head and a sample of Billie body wash.

I ran to the shower with the quickness to take her out for a spin. I lathered up the creamy body wash (which I will be purchasing) that smelled like a splashy, tangy mélange of citrus all over my legs and went to town. My jaw dropped to the floor and stayed that way for the entire experience. Billie glided up and down my legs without any wincing or scraping and hugged every nook and cranny around my ankles and knees. This has been my first time shaving in the entire 7 weeks I have been quarantined so you can imagine the hair on my legs was growing like weeds. Billie wacked away those weeds effortlessly for the smoothest shave of my entire life. 

At this point I was blown away by the way she danced up and down my legs without any nicks or irritation. Now the true test was dare I say it: the pubes. While I do give those a trim every now and again, it was still kinda jungle-like down there. I’ll spare you the details on this one but I’ll have you know; the pubes were no quest for Billie!

I went a little razor happy because I was truly elated but when I was finally done, Billie looked as good as new! Usually after ten minutes of shaving with an ordinary razor (even the most expensive ones), the soap around the blade usually dissolves or falls off in chunks and the razor is full of unsightly hair that refuse to come out. After my shaving escapade, Billie came out with the soap perfectly intact and without any hair caught in between the blades. Why? Because she is fully covered in charcoal soap. Genius! My body was absolutely hairless and super silky smooth! Prickly stubs where?! I’m writing to you two days later and I have not a one razor bump and my skin is ready to party. I will also be buying the shaving cream so I can have an even more dreamy experience (if that’s even possible). I also heard it feels like marshmallows so I am super intrigued. As I stroke my legs up and down, I am in awe at my new smooth skin- it just feels too good to be true! I feel like I can really live my best life with Billie and you can too. Go get yours!
