Gillette MACH3 Turbo Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How often do you change blades? What difference does it make if you use shaving gel instead of soap and water?

	How many shaves will I get with a MACH3®Turbo cartridge? When should I change the blades? Many factors come into play when deciding the number of uses per cartridge, such as shave prep, thickness of hair, direction of growth and shaving routine. While you're really in the best position to make this decision, MACH3Turbo has an advanced indicator® Lubricating Strip to help as a guide. It provides a visual aid to signal when you are no longer receiving the optimal MACH3Turbo shaving experience. We recommend changing the cartridge when the Indicator Strip fades to white or when the shave becomes uncomfortable.
	What is the difference between shaving with shave gel/foam and soap and water? Shave gels and foams tend to be less drying than ordinary soap and water and won't clog your razor the way soap can. Shave gels and foams help retain skin moisture, making hair easier to cut. Shaving products such as Gillette® Series Shave Gels and Foams contain special moisturizers to improve razor glide, enabling the razor to move gently across the skin. New Gillette Series offers both innovative Shaving Gels and Shaving Foams designed to provide maximum comfort and protection during the closest shaves. Gillette Series shave preps are designed to moisturize and soften beard hair, create a protective layer to lubricate and maximize razor glide during wet-shaving, and deliver skin comfort ingredients to help restore and maintain a healthy balance in men's facial skin.
	How do the new Gillette® Series after shave products help my skin? Gillette Series After-Shave Gels, Lotions and Splashes are designed to help provide maximum comfort and protection, restoring skin to a healthy balance after shaving.
