Summer is the perfect time to Keep It Smooth. My husband likes to shave everything but his goatee in the summer. That is how I like it too! However, we have been on vacation for a week! While we were on vacation, he did not shave. We happened to be in Boston and his team is the Boston Red Sox, so I don't know if he was channeling those Red Sox beards or what, but he did not shave.

In working with #CollectiveBias and Gillette, we had the chance to try the new Gillette Flexball razor. I found the razor at Walmart. Not only was it in the aisle, I also found a whole endcap featuring the new Gillette Flexball. There was even this cool demonstration showing how the Flexball worked in comparison to other razors. I bought one and not soon enough, my husband needed to shave before he headed back to work, that is when it really counted!

Normally my husband shaves with this old electric razor, so I was excited to see how he would like the Gillette Flexball manual razor. He lathered up with shaving cream and got started. I was excited to see all of that prickly hair coming off. I heard comments from him like, "Wow, I can't even feel this." and "This is coming off really easy." He liked it! No scratch that. He loved it!
Even going around his goatee was really simple. He mentioned how precise it was and how it just glided over his skin. Even over a bumpy neck, for example. This is when it really counted, and he was quite impressed with how well it worked.
Ready to see the end result? Love it! I am so happy that the prickly beardish thing is gone! I know he is not happy about heading back to work, but at least he is smooth shaven and ready to keep it smooth When It Counts! Making a good impression is always important, so when it counts, you want to look your best!
So now we are ready to enjoy the rest of our #SmoothSummer! I see many more days at the pool, on the boat, dinners on the patio and other special moments ahead in the coming weeks. As a teacher, I am a bit bummed that it is already August, but we really plan to take advantage of the coming weeks and enjoy every minute. Need some smooth sk-inspiration?
