Canadians Review: Schick Intuition Pure Nourishment Razor

Spring is here and while it’s not Summer weather yet, I do see a lot of capris and sneakers out again! How are your legs holding up after a long Winter?

I recently give 50 Canadians the opportunity to try out the all new Schick Intuition Pure Nourishment Razor and many of their thoughts on the product have landed into my inbox. Here’s what other Canadians have to say about this razor, new to shelves last month. As well, those who sent me their reviews were entered into a draw, more about that at the end of the post.

Debra “… I have been using the Schick Intuition for many years. I got rid of expensive blades and shaving cream and love the Intuition. I have mainly been using the Shea Butter one but I have to admit that I am sold on the new cocoa butter Pure Nourishment. It was so nice to use – was almost buttery on my legs. Glided on so smooth and my legs felt very soft afterward. I didn’t apply body lotion as I usually have to. It was more moisturizing than the Shea Butter. I will be buying this one from now on and telling others about it …”

Leanne “…The love this razor! I’m currently 31 weeks pregnant and shaving is becoming more challenging by the day. I love skipping the shaving cream step all together. My skin is left soft and moisturized after too! …”

Trish S “… Fits perfectly with my bathroom colour scheme…lol I shaved and loved it, it was very close to the skin, smooth and beautifully scented. I loved the smooth glide over my skin especially my armpits they can be tricky to shave. No nicks! The smoothness of the razor is not only in its glide over your skin with the lovley scented nourishing lather but once you are done and drying off your legs feel so smooth and soft. I liked that it actually added moisture to my skin when shaving not taking it away. All in all I am a new customer and I thank you for the opportunity to try such a great new product! I will be purchasing the refills for sure….”

Lorena H ” … I really liked how it was easy to use. The handle has a nice grip to it. I love that this razor eliminates applying shaving gel because it has a skin conditioning solid attached. I like the coconut milk and almond oil skin conditioning solid. It has a nice light scent to it. My legs and underarms were smooth, hair-free and moisturized with a nice light scent of coconut milk and almond oil. …”

Jenine B “… All in all, I’d use the razor again, and I definitely like having it in the shower for those times I do need to get a quick shave, but I’m not sure for the cost, that I’d use it as my primary razor, for the reasons I mentioned {moisturizing strip runs out unevenly and legs were dry after using} …”

Denise E “… loved the light smell, it made my skin feel very smooth and the shave was great. I found the handle a little big and bulky for my hands and my shower is all tile and I couldn’t use the suction cup holder. Overall, the benefits definitely outweigh the negatives and I will be continuing to use this product ….”

Mandi “… I’d have to give this only a 2 out of 5. The packaging is really pretty, the smell is great, the lotion seems nice, but the razor quality for my legs just really didn’t work for me, razor burn on my legs…”

Andrea A “… I have really sensitive dry skin, and I am pleased that the scent was light and great for sensitive skin as I didn’t react at all. I noticed that I didn’t need to apply lotion to my legs after shaving like I normally do, and my legs were left feeling really soft. I think my only complaint is that the nourishing bar doesn’t last as long as the razor blades would have, and I had a couple problems getting a close shave in my bikini area. But I got a nice shave on my legs and under arms, and I will definitely buy refills for this. I am normally not a fan of the razors that come with the conditioning bar, mostly because I have always been allergic to the scents, so I’ve very much enjoyed being able to test out this one  …”

Vesper M “…The razor left my skin feeling soft and it didn’t nick my skin. It was easy and fast to use. I suffered no skin irritation at all – no itching, soreness, inflamed skin. I would have preferred that  it was unscented, and I did have a problem attaching the suction cap to the shower walls. It only could be attached to the inside of my bathroom cabinet, which is inconvenient….”

Lee-Ann “… before I got to try it, my 18 year old daughter nabbed it. She LOVES it! She said that she likes the way her skin feels afterwards, nice and soft, not dry like when she used a razor and shaving cream. She loves the fact that it is all in one, and makes for easy travel (got some in our luggage right now – off to Rome later on today!). I’m sure I will love it as well. I’ll be using one while on holiday. Cheers for the chance at trying a new product, this will definitely be a staple on our shopping list from now on! …”

Sarah P “…In my opinion this razor falls short to my usual Gillette Fusion razor. I like a close shave and a razor that has precision. The Intuition did not provide either. I liked that you could skip the shave gel or soap before you shave, but I found that the moisture bar wore down quite quickly and in my case the bottom half fell right off half way through the first week. I would not purchase the Intuition in the future or recommend it. ..”

Sheryl P “… I’ve been using the intuition for years and years, and this one smells GREAT and left my legs feeling like silk! I’ve always been a big fan of intuition because it’s so convenient to use, but everything can be improved upon… and this is a definite improvement… it moisturizes, it smells great, and it works… leaves legs feeling smooth and soft. …”

Carrie “… The sticky suction cup hanger had the whole thing collapsing into my tub. Guess I have the wrong kind of tile – toss the hanger… Now for the shave… One leg done, feels smooth… let’s do the other… Oh what is that burning feeling… hmmm and all those little red dots? Why that’s blood running down my leg… it seems the blade cuts SO well it takes off a few layers of skin imperfections as it goes…Over all I like the idea of this razor, especially for travel… but my legs… Not so much… Guess I’ll stick to the men’s razor… …”

Olga “… I have a huge issue with dry, itchy skin having been diagnosed with Lichen Planus. For the most part, my condition is currently in remission, but the dry skin is an everlasting reminder of it. Shaving often makes it more noticeable, so I usually only shave once a week. However, with the Schick Intuition Pure Nourishment razor, I shaved three times in the week, and my skin was noticeably smoother and softer! I was thrilled! The cream bar around the razor provided a lovely scent and moisturized beautifully. I was never a fan of these types of razors, they always seemed so bulky and always got gooey. My sample came with a shower hanger, so it doesn’t get that gooey gross factor. I’m really thrilled that I also got a spare blade with the unit – I’m sold! 🙂 …”

Pat B “… I love the non-slip handle, the suction cup holder, and noted that the cap – which is conveniently shaped to fit on either way – is vented. It glided over my skin so smoothly, cut the hairs so closely, and effortlessly reached areas I might normally miss — all quickly and without a single nick. My legs were left smoother than ever! I definitely have dry skin on my legs, and will moisturize after shaving today, but I will be very interested to see how it goes after repeated shavings, and whether or not the moisturizing effect of this razor makes a difference over the long term. Schick has hit the mark with this product, and it is definitely my new favourite. …”

Teressa B “… I didn’t find that it lathered, but it did moisturize. No need for cream after my shower.The coconut milk & almond oil in the solid around the blade felt wonderful on my dry skin. There was no pulling or dragging as the razor glided over my skin. Actually at first I didn’t think it was working right because I felt nothing as I shaved. I thought the solid was preventing the razor from reaching my skin. I was wrong, it not only reached my skin, but it left a silky smooth feeling behind every swipe! It smelled heavenly as a bonus, but coconut is one of my favourite scents anyway, so I may be biased there. It came with a handy shower hanger for the shower which was nice …”

T.C “… Love the scent of coconut and it should really be called ‘aaaah’lmond oil…as that’s what the smell and feel made me do! Made me go ‘aaaah’! What a wonderful razor in every aspect! …”

Carla M “… . As I already buy their products I was thrilled with this new product. I absolutely love their razors and now I have found a new favorite in coconut milk and almond oil…love love this product A+ to SCHICK!!!! …”

Ashleigh “…I like that you do not have to use shaving cream with this product. It saves money and keeps items out of the landfill. I love this razor! It feels so smooth. One of my pitfalls with other razor, is that i tend to press too hard because of a dull edge. With this razor, you don’t have to worry about that nicking yourself. It is effective and gentle. When you can see the green edge, you can see its time for a new cartridge. I love that it comes with a shower holder. With my little squishy on the loose, it is well out of his reach. More pros include, it smells lovely. My fiance says it smells like vanilla, which is one of his favourite scents. I love that it feels like a natural product- coconut milk and almond oil. You keep the razor and buy cartridges, which means you aren’t constantly replacing your razor. Cartridges can last awhile. The approximate price of $11.99 is fairly decent. I also like that it comes with a refill and it is easy to figure out when to replace the cartridge. On the negative side of things, some people are allergic to coconut milk and almond oil. I also dislike the plastic packaging. Other than that, I really love this razor! I would certainly recommend it to anyone in a need of new, efficient razor. …”

Laurie H “… Love it!! It smells so good. It was a little hard to handle for the first few shaves, but then it worked like dream. Will definitely buy the replacement blades for this razor, and sick with it. I also love the suction holder …”

Keri T “… I love it for shaving my legs and underarms and the soap bar is really convenient in that you don’t need shaving cream and the cocoa butter scent is wonderful  I do find it awkward and inconvenient for bikini line however as the razor is so large with the soap bar which makes it hard to maneuver. All in all a great shaver for legs and underarms! …”

Valerie D “… I must admit that I was really surprise by this razor. I tried one of this model 3-4 years ago and I didnt like it and now  I must say that I really like it. It is really smooth and perfect for my legs. I dont like it for small area like the bikini as the razor head is really big and is not really good for precision and for ”uneven” part 🙂 . But I would recommend it for sure for the legs and underarms as it leave my skin really smooth and hydrated. I really liked it and I will use it again and again. …”

Aimée G “…I was beyond excited to receive the Schick Intuition Pure Nourishment razor and try it out as my current razor does it’s job but with my dry skin problems seems to make them worse. When I used the Schick Intuition. I noticed no irritation, no bumps and no itchiness afterwards. My skin feels better and less dry! I also loved the fact the razor has a great bar on it that provides nourishment to my legs while shaving but also cut out my need to buy shaving cream …”
