Gillette ProGlide Shield 13-Count 5-Blade Replacement Cartridges — Dual Lubrication & Precision Trimmer

Gillette ProGlide Shield blade refills are five-blade replacement cartridges with front-and-back lubrication, microfins, and a precision trimmer for a close, comfortable shave that fits Fusion5 and ProGlide handles.

These ProGlide Shield refills are engineered to combine close cutting and skin protection. Each cartridge layers lubrication both before and after the blades, includes ultra-thin, sharp blades, and adds microfins and a guiding microcomb to help lift and align hairs for a smoother pass. The refill pack contains thirteen cartridges, each designed to deliver up to twenty shaves under typical use.

How do these refills reduce irritation during shaving?

The refills use a Lubrastrip positioned ahead of and behind the blades to reduce friction on skin as the blades pass. Microfins gently stretch and smooth the skin so blades glide more evenly, helping to lower the risk of tugging and redness.

• Dual lubrication strip cushions skin pre- and post-blade contact.
• Microfins smooth the surface for steadier blade movement.
• Microcomb aligns hairs so blades cut more efficiently.

What makes the ProGlide Shield blades different for closeness and durability?

These cartridges use five ultra-sharp blades—four of which are formulated to be especially thin and sharp—to cut hair close to the skin. The upgraded blade metallurgy and spacing are tuned for both smoothness and longer life, providing multiple clean shaves per refill.

• Five precision blades for closer cutting versus previous Fusion5 designs.
• Optimized blade spacing to balance closeness and comfort.
• Each refill delivers up to 20 shaves under normal conditions.

Can I shape sideburns and reach tricky areas with these refills?

Yes — the rear-facing precision trimmer is built into every cartridge for trimming around nose, sideburns, and under the nose where the main blades are hard to maneuver. Use the trimmer to define edges or touch up detailed facial hair lines without swapping tools.

• Integrated precision trimmer on the cartridge back for detailing.
• Designed to handle hard-to-reach contours and tight angles.
• Compatible with most five-blade Gillette handles for quick swaps.

Which razor handles are these ProGlide Shield refills compatible with?

ProGlide Shield cartridges attach to a wide range of five-blade Gillette handles, including Fusion5 and ProGlide families. They are not compatible with GilletteLabs handles, so check your handle model before buying.

• Fits Fusion5 and ProGlide razor handles.
• Not compatible with GilletteLabs handle systems.
• Easy snap-on mounting for fast cartridge replacement.

Who is this for: These ProGlide Shield blade refills suit men seeking a balance of closeness and skin comfort, especially those who shave frequently and want longer-lasting cartridges. They work well for men who prefer a single razor system for both everyday shaving and detailed grooming, and for anyone using compatible Fusion5 or ProGlide handles who wants to upgrade blade life and skin protection.
