As the world's #1 shaving brand for women, Gillette Venus understands
that each woman's passion is unique, and so are the tools and beauty
routines that help them feel their most confident and ready to dive into
life. That's why the brand is releasing three new products to bring
women additional hair removal methods for their head to toe needs ---
wherever and whenever they choose to remove hair. Venus is introducing
its newest technology and innovation to expand its portfolio with the
launch of Venus Platinum Extra Smooth, Venus Face Perfection, and Venus
Bikini Precision. To celebrate the launch, Venus is thrilled to partner
with Cassie De Pecol, the first woman on record to travel to every
sovereign nation in the world.

Gillette Venus is inspired by women's strength to challenge themselves
and pursue whatever drives them most – professionally, physically, and
socially. Not all women want to or have to remove hair, but for many
it's a personal preference that helps them feel a little more confident
and comfortable. With this launch and partnership, Gillette Venus wants
to give women the tools and encouragement to help them feel their best
and make the most of every moment.

"We know through talking to women all over the world that even something
as small as having smooth skin can really help give that extra boost of
confidence," says Anthony van Dijk, Associate Brand Director, North
America Gillette Venus. "Ever since 2001 with our introduction of the
first razor designed especially for women, Gillette Venus has been
working to continually raise the bar for women's hair removal. Venus
Platinum Extra Smooth, Venus Face Perfection, and Venus Bikini Precision
were all designed with our latest innovations in hair removal so that
women can enjoy smooth skin quickly, conveniently and efficiently."

The newest additions to the Gillette Venus product line include the
Venus Platinum Extra Smooth Razor, the brand's first razor with a satin
chrome finish designed to bring women a more premium shaving experience;
Venus Face Perfection, created to remove unwanted facial hair; and Venus
Bikini Precision, a slim handheld device for trimming and shaping bikini
lines.
