5.0 out of 5 stars Better for people with sensitive skin.
This is better for people with sensitive skin than the HQ171 extra fresh. It feels smoother and doesn't make my razor drag or my face burn like the evil extra fresh lotion does. The lotion packs last pretty long.

For me it is cheaper to buy the lotion packs than buy new gillette mach 3 turbo blades. (this would depend on how much lotion you use)...

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice but unnecessary
Sure, it's very convenient to have the lotion right inside the razor, but it can get expensive to constantly have to buy more of these packs. I use regular shaving gel with my Cool Skin shaver and have never had a problem in the two years I have used it. I still use the packs when traveling, just for the space savings.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great lotion, July 19, 2005
This review is from: Philips Norelco HQ170 Cool Skin Nivea for Men Lotion Replacement Cartridge (5 cartridges) (Health and Beauty)
This stuff actually works. I use it with my 7735x and it feels really smooth. It also doesn't burn like the HQ171 does.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best shave I have had with an electric shaver!, June 19, 2005

This review is from: Philips Norelco HQ170 Cool Skin Nivea for Men Lotion Replacement Cartridge (5 cartridges) (Health and Beauty)
The Norelco rotary shaver that dispensed HQ170 as it shaved my face provided the smoothest electric shave that I have ever had. I have sensitive skin and found the lotion left my face feeling smooth and not raw as I had felt after using a Remington reciprocating cutter.

I tried the HQ171 Gel but it was slightly irritant and did not smooth the shaver heads over the skin like the lotion did.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Electric Shaver Solution for a Non-irritating Shave!, December 20, 2004

This review is from: Philips Norelco HQ170 Cool Skin Nivea for Men Lotion Replacement Cartridge (5 cartridges) (Health and Beauty)
I just bought the 7735X Norelco electric shaver, and it's the best shaver investment I have made yet. The ability to dispense the lotion directly from the shaver is great, and the closeness of the shave is amazing. The best part is that it does this with little to no irritation unlike my past electric shavers. I highly recommend these lotion cartridges to anyone who has these shavers!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good on my skin., March 29, 2006
This review is from: Philips Norelco HQ170 Cool Skin Nivea for Men Lotion Replacement Cartridge (5 cartridges) (Health and Beauty)
I like this better then the shaving gel because it leaves your skin a lot smoother, making shaving enjoyable. Great product. Wish more packs came in a box.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best lotion I have tried so far, May 31, 2005
By 
This review is from: Philips Norelco HQ170 Cool Skin Nivea for Men Lotion Replacement Cartridge (5 cartridges) (Health and Beauty)
When used with one of the Coolskin shavers (I do not see this product being used without them, anyway), this is by far the best option available.

It is the only thing that will avoid skin irritation and reduce cuts. It also leaves a nice feeling that eliminates the need for an after shave gel or anything similar.

My husband has that particular Norelco razor. It had become hard for him to find the replacement cartridges locally, so this works well for him. I order them when he runs low. He has to have them, or replace a good razor. Thanks.

I've been using the Nivea skin lotion with my Norelco razor for years now. It always aids in helping me achieve a closer shave without any burning skin after. Good product.
