Gillette Mach3 Razor Blade Refills, 10ct Razor Cartridges with Lubrication Strip, 3-Blade Razor

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Gillette Mach3 provided a very good shave, however to achieve a really close shave I had to go over the same spots multiple times. To its credit the lubrication strip allowed me to do multiple passes without any noticeable redness or chafing. The feel of the razor seemed a bit ‘light' but that could be due to me being used to a much sturdier and heavy razor. As for the longevity of the blades, I have used it five times so far and the fifth shave seemed to do just as good a job as the first. Overall the Mach3 provided as good as or slightly better shave then comparable three blade razors.

The new lubrication strip is too tacky and slimy, and the blue dye doesn't look right, aesthetically, compared to the white/blue combo that was on the blade before. At the very least, change the hue to the same as the blue rubber comb, or back to the white and blue hue that was on it before. Making it less slimy would also be great. I understand that this was probably done to cut costs, but, nevertheless...
