Great results for an equally great price ๐ธ
I really love Estrid's Startkit! First of all โ the color Guava is absolutely wonderful. A big plus for the design overall โ both the razor and the matching wall holder are nice to have in the bathroom. When it comes to functionality, the product truly lives up to its promises. It provides a really good shave without irritating the skin, and the sturdy steel handle makes the razor feel good in hand and easy to control. Together with a good shaving gel, the razor really glides like "butter". Another big advantage is the affordability. Considering the quality โ both of the handle and the five-blade razor โ you get a lot for your money. The fact that two razor blades are included in the starter pack feels generous. I really recommend the Estrid Startkit to anyone looking for a stylish, affordable, and functional razor with great results ๐ธ #lykoinflutester #estridTranslated from swedish

Not up to expectations
For me, the blades were too dull, had to go over multiple times and even then it wasn't a good result for me. A lot of "soap" around too which didn't make it any better. The product is also very heavy to hold, which makes it difficult to gauge the pressure you should use. Going back to Gillette.Translated from norwegian

Good Razor๐
I have been so lucky to test out this lovely pink razor from #estrid for a while now. The first impression was very good, and it had a nice packaging and felt exclusive. The first thing I noticed was that the razor was much heavier than other razors I have tried before. Additionally, it came with an extra razor blade and a holder in the same color with a suction cup. Super practical to hang in the shower, and it hasn't fallen down once. ๐ Personally, I think the razor is too heavy, but it sits nicely in the hand, and you get used to it over time. But if you're like me and drop the razor, it hurts terribly when it lands on your foot๐ The razor blades that come with it have a special gel on the blade, and I feel that it is a bit too big and "bulky" for my taste. Very practical if you are going to shave larger areas like calves, but it feels a bit more cumbersome in the intimate area as you can't reach well enough. The protective cap that comes with it can be a bit difficult to get off/on when the gel gets wet. It has happened that the razor blade has fallen off, and it is hard to get it back on without cutting yourself. I don't think it removes all the hair well enough since there is such a large area on the top/bottom side of the blades. It looks great in the shower and has a nice pink color that matches the shaving foam, it is budget-friendly and gets the job done. A plus is that you don't need to have shaving foam on hand if you don't have it available. It leaves the skin soft and smooth, and I haven't experienced getting bumps or any redness, even with my sensitive skin. All in all, this is a good razor that I can recommend to those who think that price in relation to quality is important. #lykoinflutesterTranslated from norwegian

Good price-quality ratio ๐ง๐ผโโ๏ธ๐ง๐ผโโ๏ธ
I received Estrid shaving products for testing from Lyko. The brand was already familiar to me, and I have been using Estrid's razors for a few years before the product updates. I was therefore curious to test how the updated razor would differ from the previous version! ๐ซง I love Estrid's packaging and product design, they look beautiful in their simplicity and add a nice splash of color to the bathroom shelves! In this starter pack, you get an extra blade as well as a holder that attaches to the wall with a suction cup. To my dismay, I find that the suction cup for the holder is not very durable, and it kept falling off by itself. The razor itself felt high quality. The handle is metal and feels heavy in the hand. Hair removal was pleasant, and the skin felt moisturized thanks to the caring gel pads. However, I don't think the razor can be used very precisely, and it was a bit clumsy to use, e.g. in folds or around joints. I think the product's price-quality ratio is good considering the extra blades that come with the package. The pads around the blade moisturize and soothe the skin while shaving, and there was no need for shaving gel! Overall, a functional product, and at least the updated blades work just as nicely as before the update ๐ #lykoinflutester #estrid1 product in post Good price-quality ratio ๐ง๐ผโโ๏ธ๐ง๐ผโโ๏ธ4 likes335 viewsto leave a comment - 4 daysVerifierad testare
Nice and good for shaving my legsโฆ
โฆ but unfortunately I get pricklier in the bikini line than normal when I use that. Estrid's razor comes with a little suction cup holder, which I think is TOP! Super convenient to avoid trying to wedge it into the shower basket so it doesn't fall out and just hang it there when you're done. Unfortunately, a problem starts when I try to take off the plastic cover in the shower, with wet hands, because I end up pulling off the whole head instead of just the cap, and I still haven't found a good solution for that. I want the protective cap on when I hang it up, and fiddling with it for a while every time it needs to be used is a bit annoying. The razor head is easy to change, and that's good โบ๏ธ You also get a refill head in the package. Shaving feels great! The razor glides easily with Estrid's shaving gel/foam. The legs become smooth and nice, but a few hours later, the bikini line is significantly pricklier than with a similar razor I have from another brand. I don't know if there's something in the "moisturizing strip" on the razor that irritates, but after that, I tested with my usual on one side and this on the other, and this one gives more bumps. Also, I'm not entirely fond of the moisturizing strip. It makes the razor slimy in some way, and I have a hard time with that type of texture, so it's a no-go for me. I also think it makes it harder to clean between strokes. On the legs, however, it works fine and leaves no irritation, so I will definitely use it until it and the refill are gone, but I'll leave the bikini line to my budget razors. Thanks for letting me test the products from Estrid! #lykoinflutester #estridTranslated from swedish

Fancy, but not the best
I have used Gilette razors for years, both for men and women, as both work perfectly at a pretty reasonable price if you buy in bulk. I was therefore a bit excited to try out a new razor, and one that I have seen a lot on social media in recent years! The Estrid starter kit looks very fresh and inviting, modern and simple design ๐ธ The suction cup actually sticks like it's molded to the tiles, AND is easy to move if needed. The razor is also satisfyingly easy to place in the holder - simple pleasures are important! ๐ Then there are some downsides. The razor is heavy - it reminds me of my partner's battery-operated razor from a few years back. I think the extra weight is more of a downside than a plus, it makes the razor a bit more cumbersome to use? Without me quite understanding why. Then there's the actual result. I tried using Estrid's shaving gel (which I also review here on Lyko), but it was as if it was shaved TOO closely. My skin burned and the hair follicles became a bit irritated and red afterward. Without shaving gel, it went better, but still a bit more sensitive skin than when using my regular razor. I also think the blade is a bit too bulky and thick, not so ergonomic around the joint for example. The price is good, considering that you get a stand, that the product seems solid, and that it comes with extra blades. Would I buy the product again? Probably not - never change a winning team ๐ #estrid #lykoinflutesterTranslated from norwegian

At the same time, it's very understandable that the weight and the shaving experience didn't quite hit the mark for you. I hope you continue with what works best for your skin โ as you say: never change a winning team ๐๐ธ

Razor Starter Kit Guava
As a user of men's razors, I can say that this one won!๐ R-A-K-A-S-T-A-N I could probably talk for an hour about this razor, but here are the key highlights #lykoinflutester - The sharp handle has enough weight for a solid grip throughout the shaving process! It doesn't slip out of your hand, and working with it was effortless and quick. - The blade was gentle and precise, and I didn't manage to cut myself at all! My skin didn't get irritated even though I didn't use shaving gel๐ The result was always top-notch, even if the blade had been used a few times. - The wall holder was absolutely fantastic! It stuck to the wall so well that I didn't have to worry about the razor being on the floor next time! - The first blade also came with a plastic cover that I plan to use while traveling! Replacement blades are also packed individually, so international trips are secured๐ค๐ผ An incredibly good product, and I can only recommend it๐ #estrid1 product in post Razor Starter Kit Guava4 likes1303 viewsto leave a comment - 2 weeksVerifierad testare
Fantastic!
I have used Estrid for many years and really loved it. However, it was really time to replace my old razor now, as it was well used and starting to look a bit worn out. I previously had it in a lavender color, but this one in ยซGuavaยป looks so nice in the shower, even though Iโm not really that fond of pink ๐ I love that it comes with a hook so that it can hang in a fixed place in the shower. It does have a tendency to fall down maybe once a month, so it might be smart to wipe the wall with antibacterial wipes or something else that contains alcohol, then it stays better. The razor fits nicely in the hand and glides easily over the skin, both with and without shaving foam. Itโs easy to change the blades. I know many have criticized Estrid after switching razor blades and that many experience irritation and bumps with the new blades. I donโt have experience with that myself, I think these blades are just as good as the previous ones, and after testing a number of other razors, I will now continue to be loyal to Estrid. I think the quality is fantastic ๐ฅฐ #LYKOINFLUTESTER #ESTRIDTranslated from norwegian

Gets the job done ๐ฉท
I was a big fan of the old Estrid blades, and after seeing very mixed reviews about the new ones, I haven't tried them until now. Surprisingly, I haven't reacted to them, and they work fine for what they're supposed to do: shave unwanted hair. I haven't dared to try in the intimate area for fear of irritation. It's a heavy razor, but unlike many others, I like that it is. I feel it makes it maybe cut better and that I have more control. It's also easy to use in slightly challenging areas, where I tend to cut myself with other razors. You feel SMOOOTH after use. Big plus for the razor looking nice with a fresh color. But that "shower hanger" they could really just drop, because if you use it, it falls to the floor in the middle of the night and you think someone has broken in.. ๐ค It's a perfectly fine razor that does what it's supposed to, but I can't shake the thought that it would have been even better with the old blades ;) #lykoinflutester #estridTranslated from norwegian

Surprisingly good
As many have already complained, the razor is surprisingly heavy, but you get used to it, and later in use, I realized that it is even more comfortable in my hand, shaving is smoother and more precise. The razor handle sticks well to the wall. Blades stay usable longer than with other razors I have. The soap is not really to my taste, too much around the blades. Blades may come loose during use if I'm in a weird position trying to shave a tricky spot, but that's rare and it hasn't bothered me. However, it's not a particularly amazing razor, sharp enough to get the hairs off, but can cause irritation on sensitive areas like all the others, especially if you use regular shaving gel and not oil, etc.1 product in post Surprisingly good250 viewsto leave a comment - 2 weeksverified customer
Estrid, you are my new bestie in the shower
โจ๐ซงOkay, we need to talk about Estrid! The first time I used it, I felt a bit like when you find that perfect mascara you thought didnโt exist โ hallelujah moment! The razor itself is pretty, the weight feels luxurious, and the grip is so much better than those plastic disposable razors that slide around like soaps in the shower. But the best part? The blades! They are super sharp but at the same time so gentle. I, who have sensitive skin, usually get red spots or irritation โ but with Estrid? Nada. After a few weeks with Estrid, I can honestly say that shaving has become a little self-care moment instead of a necessary evil. Iโve even started to like shaving my legs again (who am I even?). Give Estrid a chance. You wonโt regret it. And your legs will thank you. ๐ซงโจTranslated from swedish

Doesn't hold
The blade falls off and it's hard to get it back without cutting yourself since it gets so sticky from it. It's the only razor I've managed to cut myself with, also on my leg. The holder on the wall keeps falling down, so mine now has several damages. Unfortunately, I won't be buying again. Such a shame because it's prettier than others to have in the bathroomโฆTranslated from swedish
