Advantages: Cheap, nice colours, effective Disadvantages: Tainted by the Bic name - they're not that bad, honest
...have found some I like: Bic Twin Lady Disposable (not to be confused with Bic Standard Disposable. They suck). To start with, though, you get the bad stuff: the packaging. I buy these in packs of 10, split into 2 pockets of 5, and they are impossible to open if you don’t have scissors or a razor around. It’s one of life’s little ironies – you need a razor to get into the packet, but you’re trying to get in to it because ... ...too. Not nasty orange like Bic used to do – these are pastels, a rainbow of pale blues and purples and pinks. Stereotypical girlie colours, and great for brightening up modern minimalist white bathrooms. The razors have hollow plastic handles, but although they’re mainly smooth, they aren’t too slippy when they get wet. Somehow they’re much better to hold onto than the ridged Tesco Value ones even though, theoretically, it ...

Advantages: fairly cheap, smooth legs Disadvantages: packaging
...my horrendous experience with the Bic sensitive razors, I thought it only right that I did a review of the new ones that I have, because in my opinion, these are fabulous. So, imagine my surprise when in preparation for this op I picked up the packet only to find that these were also Bic! And here I was under the impression that they were Wilkinson ones...well, well, well. You’ll just have to read on to see what I think of these ones...
*** Pretty ... ...the Sensitive Bic, Bic Twin Lady are in translucent pink packets (still plastic though!) with 5 razors to a packet. On the front it has the Bic trademark in the manky, industrial yellow colour then ‘Twin Lady’ underneath in more swishy white writing. There’s a diagram to indicate that yes, Twin really does mean these have two blades. This evidently is in case you can’t read. But, I also think you’d need to have some skill in deciphering their pictures, ...

Advantages: Nice colours, razors last a long time, cheap Disadvantages: A few cuts
...shopping when I came across Bic Twin Lady Razors. I'd never tried any by Bic before so I thought I'd give it a try. To be honest, I was mainly attracted to the colours. I thought it was very handy the razors being different colours because I'd know which one I'd already used. And I was surprised to see how cheap these were at only £2.29 for 10 razors!
I got home and decided to try my new razors straight away. I picked the purple razor (my favourite ... ...to hold, and didn't slip out of my hand like so many other have. The head of the razor itself was quite small so it reached all the awkward to reach places, like behind the knee and around the ankles but it did leave me with a few cuts, maybe because there was no protective moisturising strip above the blades. But overall the razor was very good and left my legs feeling soft and smooth.
Now was the moisturiser test... Every other razor I had tried ...

Advantages: Price, girly colours, effective Disadvantages: No lubricating strip
...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 ... ...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 ...

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.
...razor really is made for my fine textured skin, and can use with little difficulty, anywhere on my body! This simple design gave me some space on my shopping list. The No-bite Twin Lady BIC - how easy to remember without consulting my list. Please send me some, ASAP!! ...
