Enjoy a close shave and minimise skin irritation with 27 ComfortCut Blades and SkinGlide Coating. Clinically tested for sensitive skin.
Glides smoothly to help reduce irritation

Great shave closeness.
I'm most impressed, because I've been using a safety razor for many years and with the Philips 5000X I'm fining the shave closeness to be most impressive, along with the battery life between charges. For those considering buying, I can say, don't hesitate, it more than does the job for you.
