Customer Reviews

necessary for shaving

To save money I tried using my Norelco 8020x using a applied creme instead of the built in dispenser. While it did work this internal creme works so much better.

works fine, might be more environmentally damaging than the mylar packets they used to use.

Nivea Men's Shaving Conditioner

This was for my dad. I think he is using it with the shaver we got him. I put some into the shaver. It seemed like it was a nice conditioner for the face.

I really didn't notice that you needed to buy more than one for free shipping..this is not Norelco's fault but Amazons. I think it should be better displayed in the ad......

I'm unhappy.

Great smell, easy to use, highly effective

I used the HS800 Nivea shaving conditioner with my Norelco 8040X with great results. For one thing, the shaving conditioner is highly effective in providing a lubricated surface so the Norelco head glides on your face. The conditioner has a nice musky scent and is similar to most men's aftershaves. I have used the Nivea conditioner and 8040X on a daily basis for about a week without ANY skin irritation, in-grown hairs, or other skin issues.

This is my first electric razor and I have only used wet bladed razors in the past. 3-4 blades you name it, I tried them all (Mach 3, Mach 3 turbo, Sensor, Schick Quattro) and after the first 2-3 days the blades get dull and my skin gets extremely irritated. To top it off, I have to shave after I shower or else the hairs are too stiff to cut. The Nivea conditioner works well enough that I can just use my 8040x in the morning before I shower and not run into any cutting issues.

Pros: The injection system is pump-action so there are no CFCs or propellants that contribute to "global warming", it is very easy to use and is very hygienic especially because of the precise metering system on the Norelco 8040x system.

Cons: Cost. Logistics-wise, the Nivea is going to be more expensive than shaving foams or gels but they rarely provide the same lubricating qualities as the Nivea.

Bottom line: If you enjoy using the 8020x, 8040x, or 8060x, the Nivea is an excellent choice for the wet shaving system.

Can Doesn't Last Too Long--But A Great Shave

2008-06-26
I love this shaving system. I have the model that refils automatically. This is probably my seventh Norelco. I have a tough beard & soft skin. I think a lot of people are in the same boat. The dry razors just make my face & neck look like hamburger. This is fantastic. My only complaint, & it has nothing to do with the razor, is that I only get 3 to 4 weeks out of the can of shaving conditioner. I know it says lasts UP to 3 months but I'm not even coming close to that. I only press the despensing button 4 to 5 times during a shave & I don't hold it down. If anyone out there is getting more than a month please let me know the secret. I have had the razor 4 months & I am now on can number 5.
