I haven't been around much lately, as I recently broke up with my fiance after 6 years. I'm hoping to be back to writing reviews soon though.

I've been using Wilkinson SwordLady Protector blades for as long as I can remember, but reading in various places that I should be using a gel or mousse to shave with, I thought if I buy that, I'll have to get cheaper razors. So off I went to Boots to see what I could find. I came across Bic Twin Lady disposable razors. They looked good and only cost £2.49 for 10 so I got them. Here's my review!
Looks: The razors come in a pearlised pink plastic packet with the orange Bic logo at the top, then Twin Lady written underneath in white, then the number ten in pink inside a white circle. I know that these also come in 5 packs, as this was basically 2 of them stuck together back to back! The razors themselves come in pastel shades of pink, lilac, blue, green and orange and look very girly. They have plastic handles in a pastel colour, then a white bit where the blade is, and a shield in the same pastel colour as the handle. I will admit they look quite cheap and flimsy, but in this case, looks can be deceiving!
How to use: I just lathered up my legs and underarms with my favourite shaving mousse (see other review!), wet the razor and shaved as usual. I then rinsed myself off, got dry and applied some body lotion.
Are they any good?: Yes they are, much to my suprise! As they were cheap, I hadn't expected them to be any good. The handles are easy to grip, they give a very close shave with no nicks or cuts and you just throw them away afterwards. My legs feel lovely and smooth, and these work a lot better than my old Wilkinson Sword razors. Even though these razors don't have lubricating strips, I have to say, this wasn't a problem! I'm very impressed!
Conclusion: These are great for ladies on a budget, like me, as a pack will last for around a month. And for £2.49, that's really good!

I like to use these when I'm on holiday (I'm always loosing things) And use my Wilkinson Sword on normal days. Also, you can use a cheap conditioner on your legs instead of foam. It works quite well and is moisturising and less costly than foam. Nice review :-) Juz x
Advantages: Different color hues, so I know if I have used before. Light weight, easily disposable. Disadvantages: Would prefer a larger package, for at least one month.
