Gillette PRO Sensitive is a high-lubricity formula optimized for "razor glide" rather than deep skin treatment. While it effectively utilizes Palmitic Acid and Aloe to reduce friction, its reliance on Triethanolamine (TEA) and fragrance makes it a professional-grade standard product. It is highly effective for reducing mechanical nicks but may cause reactive redness in those with fragrance-triggered sensitivities.
The formula functions through a Dual-Surfactant System which creates a high-density cushion between the blade and the epidermis. The addition of PEG-45M provides slickness, ensuring the blade slides rather than drags. For maximum efficacy, allowing the gel to remain on the skin for 60 seconds before the first pass allows the Sorbitol and Glycerin to hydrate the hair shaft, reducing the force required to cut the follicle.
