Shaving has always been a painful process to me, and i've got enough scars to prove it. I'm very impatient, and don't have time for shaving creams, etc - hence, nicks and cuts! When the intuition first came out, i couldn't wait to try it. It seemed like such a great idea! I was really impressed with the overall results - smooth and silky skin! But after a few uses (and i completely agree with Maryanne here), the razor does seem to get blunt rediculously quickly, and the soap bar just disappears! It's great that you can buy different kinds of blades (soap for sensitive skin, moisturising, etc.). The actual razor is quite bulky, looks chunky and out of place in the bathroom haha. It definately doesn't protect you from nicks and cuts - particularly on my knees - but that could just be my impatience again.
