NXT Light Shave Gel Makes Beards Shine Like the Sun

For the past several years, the world of shaving tech has been caught in a stalemate. Gillette may add one blade to their razor, but Schick just fires back with two. But now we have something else to look forward to every morning: glowy shaving gel. NXT Light Shave Gel apparently illuminates your face through sensitive-skin-formulated chemiluminescence. We're not sure if it makes those stray hairs any easier to catch, but the old radioactive beard prank never gets old (...unless you've been giving us pity laughs all this time). [CVS via uncrate]

Art of Shaving Fusion Chrome Collection Power Razor Has a Tiny Headlight

If you can't stand the thought of a buzzing, whining electric contraption grinding away at your face every morning, maybe this new Art of Shaving Fusion Chrome Collection Power Razor with a tiny spotlight is just the face-scraping utensil you've been looking for. The luxury razor company teamed up with blademaker Gillette for this handle that fits the company's cartridge razor blades, and its heavy chrome and resin construction gives it a hefty high-quality feel. But this blade-shaving routine seems like a lot of trouble. Let's talk blade vs. electric and have a poll. More »

Sol Shaver Solar Razor Keeps You Civilized Even in the Wilderness

You never know who you may run into when you're traveling in the wilderness, hiking the long trails and climbing those big mountains, so you really want to be clean-shaven, don't you? The Sol Shaver Solar Razor solves that problem, never needing any batteries, plugs, or any other of those unfortunate reminders of civilization. It doesn't look half bad, either, but that shiny quality will cost you $61. Or you could just let that scraggly beard grow wild, for that grizzled outdoorsy look. Fahgettaboudit. The only people you meet out there will be toothless guys talking about what a purdy mouth you have, anyway. [Eco Friend]

Phillips Norelco BG2020 Men's Bodygroom Reviewed (Verdict: Wtf)

This is an average electric trimmer, but some of the customer reviews over on Amazon are interesting to say the least.
Groin:
Lets just say the "Bodygroom" is Shaft, Beanbag, and Starfish safe. No nicks or any pain...no worries...that does not mean go in there like a maniac...take your time...the two trimmers on the front and back(allow for push or pull stroke) knock down the forest while the foil on top produced nice smooth skin... Here is a word of warning, if you are a hairy man in the posterior / back (buttocks cheeks) region, I would not suggest going bald there

Mega Mega from Indiana, you sir are a true connoisseur of the hairy man shaving tools. We salute you. More »

Target Carbon Fibre Razor

Who needs the damn Gillette Schick Quattro Midnight Fusion Deluxe razor when there is a razor that looks this classy? This product is part of a Target's designer series that takes ordinary crap and makes it look semi-cool. The razor is made out of stainless steel and features a carbon fibre-looking shaft. It is officially called the Caldo Razor and is available for $40 in-store. It also uses the replacement blades from the ordinary Gillette Mach3. More »

Moore's Law for Razor Blades: 14 Blades by 2100

Those of you who did a spit-take when Gillette announced their five blade Fusion razor last year because you remembered The Onion predicting it would happen from the year before, you should appreciate that someone at The Economist not only wondered whether or not there was a Moore's Law for razor blades but actually worked on the graph you see to the right. If the (admittedly few) five data points we have hold, we should be shaving ourselves with fourteen blades by the 2100. More »

Destroy That 5 O' Clock Shadow - Gundam Style

I've always been more of a Macross loser guy than a Gundam guy, but this I can't pass up. As an avid shaver, I'd like to have more fun while shaving since my beard grows back about 5 minutes after I finish up. That's why KAI has come out with this gorgeous looking Gundam razor. 1000 lucky shaving fanatics will have a chance to win the lovely Gundam dock to go along with it. Uses your basic triple-blade cartridges (we're guessing a Mach 3 would work) to ensure you get as close as an arm-mounted laser cannon. They also come in multiple colors to match your favorite Gundamn model. What more could you ask for, a heatsink blade version? More »

Gillette 5 Blade Razor

Let's consider the following events: Gillette has created a razor with 5 blades and we discover a blog dedicated to shavers and shaving. Both of these items are unusual, at best, but the conjunction of both of these at the same time is like watching a solar eclipse—if I didn't have two millennia of scientific learning and reasoning to assuage my fears, I would think the world was going to end.
