I used to go down the shaving aisle at the drugstore thinking any random razor would do the trick, but boy was I wrong. The product that made me realize you can achieve a quick, clean shave at an affordable price tag? Athena Club’s Razor Kit. I couldn’t believe the results only cost me $10 and think anyone who dreads shaving or shelling out a bunch of money on subpar blades should hop right on board.
Why Athena Club? Because the shaving and body brand makes high-quality products that are backed by experts, clinical studies, data points, and consumer research. Its offerings also keep sustainability in mind and wear accessible price tags. I don’t know about you, but Athena Club certainly checks off all of my boxes. Any product that makes my life easier (and less expensive) is one I’ll make sure to keep around.
But back to the kit that elevated my shower routine and made me actually look forward to shaving. The Razor Kit comes with two five-blade cartridges, an ergonomic razor handle, and a magnetic storage hook. Each cartridge features five spaced-out blades (to prevent clogs and cuts) and a hydrating, water-activated hyaluronic acid serum strip to dodge any annoying post-shave bumps or irritation. Additionally, the handle is made from a durable aluminum material that’s covered in non-slip silicone. As soon as I gripped the razor, I could feel its quality and durability, and I just knew I can ever go back to cheap, plastic razor handles ever again.

I also love how the kit includes a handy magnetic hook. I’ve used razors that come with a suction cup hook, but I can confidently say, this magnetic one is unmatched. I’ve had my Athena Club razor posted on my shower wall for many, many months and it has shown absolutely zero signs of budging. And the fact that it’s magnetic makes reaching for my razor that much easier. Plus, there’s less of a chance of the blades rusting.
But besides the build of the razor, I was completely in awe of the results. After my first shave with my Athena Club razor, I couldn’t believe how much I’d been missing out this entire time. I got the smoothest, closest shave ever, and it did not take long at all. I also don’t knick my skin as often as I used to (shoutout to the protective skin guards that wrap around each of the five blades). Even when I’m in a rush, my legs still end up incredibly smooth, soft, and hydrated.
The Razor Kit currently comes in 12 colorways, so take your pick, stick it to your shower wall, and start enjoying shaving (finally!).
The Razor Kit includes two cartridges, but once you run out, be sure to check out Athena Club’s blade refill options.

I’d recommend using The Razor Kit with the brand’s Cloud Shave Foam. This pairing turns my legs from prickly cactus to silky smooth in a jiffy. I’m also a fan of Athena Club’s’ Creamy Body Wash, which blends several nourishing ingredients and has a subtle scent.
