The best blades
I have been loyal to Estrid for many years and have really loved their razors and blades. After they changed the blades and altered something in the formula, the brand has received quite a bit of criticism. But I really can't get behind this criticism. I have also read an interview with the founder of Estrid who claims that the only thing they did was remove titanium dioxide and a couple of other irritating substances, which should be a good thing. Personally, I think the new blades are better than the previous ones (the ones that were blue). I find they glide even more easily over the skin, cause zero irritation, and can actually also be used without shaving cream, although I prefer with. I also think the price is nice, as razor blades are often very expensive. I have tested razors and blades from brands like Gilette and Bic, but they only gave me irritation and left a tugging feeling on my skin. I don't experience that with these. I will stick with Estrid from now on 🥰 #LYKOINFLUTESTER #ESTRIDTranslated from norwegian

From best to worst
After switching from «blue» to «yellow», the quality of the blades has become extremely poor. Getting easier cuts, ingrown hairs, and sensitivity in the skin. Canceled subscription after 4 years after they changed the blades..Translated from norwegian

Clumpy things
Always exciting to test new products that you use often! I associate Estrid with fresh design and sponsorship deals with influencers on social media, so I was excited to finally try this Swedish product. 🤔 Always great to have Scandinavian brands these days, so I hoped I would like these razor blades! But unfortunately. Compared to razor blades from other brands (which I have used for maaany years now), Estrid just doesn't quite measure up. My skin gets quite sore and irritated if I press a little too hard, and it's a bit difficult to gauge the strength with these blades. The design is a bit clumpy, which especially makes maneuvering around joints challenging. 🥲 After a bit of practice, it goes fine, but I still found it a bit disappointing! Plus for the design of the razor it belongs to, which I have written a separate review of 🌸 A nice splash of color in the shower! #lykoinflutester #estridTranslated from norwegian
3 likes268 views- Customer service at Lyko1 hourHi!💙 Thank you so much for a thoughtful review 🌸 It's such a shame that the razor blades didn't quite meet your expectations, especially when you were hoping for a new favorite. It's always a bit extra disappointing when it comes to a product you use often. I hope you find something that suits your skin better – and it's always a plus to have a bit of color in the shower! 😊💛

The Five-Blade Cartridges 4 pcs
With the new razor, I was sent this replacement blade pack, and it will bring me joy for a long time🤩 #LYKOINFLUTESTER The blades are individually packaged, so traveling with them is very easy! Smooth legs throughout the beach vacation are guaranteed🤝🏼 The replacement blade is easy to switch on the handle and is very long-lasting compared to other blades I have used. The blade is very gentle, and thanks to the large "pillows," shaving without shaving gel can also be done without skin irritation😍 Due to the large size, shaving is also quick, and the sharp blades ensure a smooth result. The blades deliver quality for the promised time, and I haven't gotten any cuts doing this to myself at all! My legs and I are ready for summer activities🥳 #ESTRID3 likes945 viewsto leave a comment - 1 weekVerifierad testare
Do the job!
Like many others here, I have also been a big fan of the old, blue blades from Estrid. Luckily for me, I haven't reacted to these new blades, and I think they still do their job - to give you smooth skin. Strange how some react so violently and some do not. I still consider them because I am unsure about using them in intimate areas now, something I wasn't before. After reading Estrid's explanation, I understand why they changed them (thanks for sharing that, Lyko), but I think they have unfortunately lost some of it. Too bad! If I were them, I might have looked for new opportunities! Anyway, I'm glad I tried the new ones to form my own opinion ⭐️ #lykoinflutester #estridTranslated from norwegian

Much worse
I loved Estrid's old razor blades. It was easy to shave, could use the same blades multiple times without irritation, and my skin felt good afterwards. Now with the new blades, I get cuts, pimples, and boils that itch even though I haven't changed anything else in my shaving routine. I've tried different shaving creams which haven't helped. I understand it as if they've only changed the formula on the strip, but it feels like the blades aren't as sharp as before. As soon as I stopped using them after 2-3 months, my skin got better again. Very disappointing. Does anyone have tips for any razor blades that remind them of their old ones? Preferably a brand that has a slightly thicker handle with a good grip like Estrid's 🫶Translated from swedish

Itch!!!
I have now realized that it is these razor blades that have given me horrible itchiness under my arms! It's like small white dots in the armpits (some a little red), and I've never experienced this itch before.Translated from swedish
1 product in post Itch!!!897 views- Customer service at Lyko3 weeksHey Sofia! 🥰 Unfortunately, it seems like there’s something in these that your skin doesn’t like at all ❤ I hope it gets better if you use some other sheets, and that you have some from before that you’ve tested with good results. Otherwise, there are a few different options if you want to look into some others. Have a lovely day 🌷1 likes

Itching and boils
Ever since they switched the blades to the yellow ones, I can't use them anymore! I got such itching and rashes on my legs, and even a boil. Super disappointing for something that WAS so good.Translated from swedish

Have a nice day! 🌸
