Last month, I co-hosted a Gillette event alongside actor Justin Hartley, helping to launch the brand’s newest products with the message that One Size Does Not Fit Every Man. In today’s world, we’ve really been spoiled. Almost every product and experience is customized to our own individual tastes. That variety of options shouldn’t stop at razors, and thanks to Gillette, it doesn’t. Gillette never takes a “one size fits all” approach to designing its razors, and it’s why the brand offers so many options. Because all men are different, no matter how similar we may look on the outside.
I am a huge advocate for individuality. After all, our look – whether it’s our clothes, our shoes, hair or beard styles – is a reflection of what we want the world to believe about us. Your look should say something about you! We all have different skin types – some are dry, some are oily, some are incredibly sensitive and irritated easily. We also all have different budgets and lifestyles, different personalities and preferences. So, “One Size Fits All” just doesn’t make sense when it comes to how guys select their razor.

My personal go-to is the MACH3 razor with the second runner being the Fusion5. Both the MACH and Fusion families now include Low Cutting Force blades across the entire lineup and at no extra cost. Low Cutting Force means less “tug and pull” when you shave, so it’s a difference I actually feel. But these razors may not be what’s right for your needs – and that’s why Gillette has a line up with more than a dozen choices, from disposables like the Sensor3 Cool to the new Gillette5 that costs less than $10, with premium blades. The point is, Gillette has the tool to get you the most comfortable shave at the most comfortable price no matter what you’re going for. Because one size does not fit every man.
