FFS: The Best Women’s Razor, Delivered To Your Door
When was the last time you remembered to change your razor? 2 weeks ago? Last month?
So long ago that you can’t even remember and now your toes are curling at the thought of going to check the state of your razor?
Sound familiar? I have the solution for you – the multi-award winning ^home delivery razor subscription service from FFS.
how does FFS work?
FFS offers a reusable and recyclable razor subscription service – your razor blades just magically arrive through your letter box. Genius.
Members receive a metal razor handle and four blades in their first month’s box, with four replacement blades every month following (or every other month for those that shave less).
There’s also the option to add on extra products, including the world’s first three-step shaving system for women, featuring an exfoliating Pre-Shave Scrub, award-winning Shave Cream and moisturising Post-Shave Balm.
reasons to use FFS
1. At the moment, you’re probably paying a lot of money for razors that aren’t really all that great quality. You also might not be changing your razor frequently enough, which leads to a build up of bacteria on the blades and possible skin irritation.
2. They’re a sustainable shaving option – you reuse your handle and are sent fresh refill blades. Less waste = happier planet, yay!
3. They’re recyclable – ^just send your blades back to FFS, they’ll handle the recycling for you.
4. They’re cruelty-free – no animals are used in the testing of their products and packaging, and the blades are suitable for vegans.
5. Wonderfully high quality products – The Rose razor has been the winner of several awards including: Best New Hair Removal Product at the Pure Beauty Awards 2019 and Best Women’s Razor at the Product of The Year Awards 2019.
Step 1: Pick your handle: Rose (premium) or Ivy (trial)
Step 2: Personalise your handle with engraving (optional)
Step 3: Choose the frequency of your order (monthly or bi-monthly)
Step 4: Choose additional body products such as shave cream (optional)
Step 5. Relax! The razor and heads are packaged in a slim and compact box that will easily fit through your letterbox. So no need to wait in for the postie or your parcel being left in (not so) ‘safe’ places.
why FFS is the only razor I've used since 2016
1: The quality. The razor is incredibly high quality and much better than any razor I’ve ever used – even ones that have cost me double the price! The handle is ergonomically designed so it is super easy and comfortable to hold. It’s made of metal and is actually quite weighty, which makes it easier to control than a flimsy plastic razor that I’d probably end up flinging about and taking off half my eyebrow.
2: The flexibility. I love that I have the option to receive my blades either monthly or bi-monthly. In winter, a fresh razor head every week is a little excessive for my shaving routine – so I opt to receive (and pay for) 4 fresh blades every second month instead.
3: The convenience. As my fresh blades are automatically sent via post, I never have to worry about using a blunt blade because I’ve forgotten to pick more up at the shops! The parcel fits through most standard letterboxes, so is always just sitting waiting for me when I get home.
FFS Rose Razor
Not only is this the most beautiful razor I’ve ever used, it’s the most well designed too.
With 6 diamond coated blades, a precision trimmer blade and vitamin E lubrication strip, the heads of this razor make achieving a close and comfortable shave a doddle every time.
The flexible head of the razor makes light work of navigating knees and ankles as well as easily clicking on and off of the ergonomically designed, sturdy handle.
The rubber on the back of the handle also makes it super easy to grip without any slips, as the grooves make it really comfortable for your fingers to rest – they really have thought of everything.
Another amazing feature is the option to have your razor handle engraved – perfect if you’re living with someone else who also uses FFS so you don’t accidentally pick up their razor!
smooth with the shave scrub
"Exfoliating the skin before shaving helps to remove dead skin cells and provide a smoother surface to shave on. Our walnut scrub is a gentle and all natural exfoliate made using the husk of walnuts and contains no micro-beads. It helps to release ingrown hairs, reduce shaving spots, unblock pores and lift dead skin cells for smoother, clearer skin."
This is such a good pre-shave scrub – The walnut pieces are scrubby enough to exfoliate, but gentle enough not to leave your skin feeling raw and scratched.
Exfoliating before shaving makes such a difference for me – I get a much closer shave and fewer ingrown hairs.
remove with the shave cream
Designed specifically for women and packed with moisturising Manuka honey, Shea butter and coconut oil, our shave cream gives your skin the treatment it deserves. The unique ‘cationic’ formula reduces friction so you get a closer shave and smoother skin. The transparent application provides maximum visibility and offers a new sense of control and closeness.
This formula definitely deserves its award-winning status – if you’re only looking to purchase one of the three additional body products, make it this shave cream.
It has a lovely silky, slippy feeling to it which allows the razor to glide so easily over the skin. The cream is clear – meaning you can actually see where you’ve missed that patch of fuzz behind your ankle.
soothe with the shave balm
"Our post-shave balm cools, refreshes and moisturises - helping to restore your skin’s natural moisture balance and reducing irritation. Blended with Manuka honey for its anti-inflammatory, repairing and moisturising qualities and cocoa butter which is high in antioxidants, it provides deep hydration to soothe and condition your skin."
This balm is super luxurious feeling on the skin. Ultra moisturising and balmy feeling, but without feeling too heavy or sticky.
It sinks into the skin well, leaving it feeling soothed and calm – no stinging or nipping at all. My skin continues to feel hydrated the next day too.
