For the Best, Nick-Free Shave of Your Life
Try: Gilette Fusion Pro Glide Manual Razor with Flexball Technology, $13

No surprise here, but women have always had issues with their razors. Whether the blade doesn't rotate well enough around the curves of your legs, or the razor just feels flimsy as a whole, there's a reason you've been stealing your guy's razor after all this time. So, no need to continue purchasing a more expensive women's razor when the one designed for men is actually cheaper and sturdier.

If you've ever swiped your husband or boyfriend's toiletries to use for yourself, you know that many of their products work just as well -- or even better -- as your own. Surprisingly, many women's products cost more and aren't necessarily better than the men's version, with the only difference being packaging. Sure, the idea is that each gender's allocated products cater to the needs and preferences of the sex that they're geared towards, but when it comes down to the nitty-gritty, most of these products are almost identical.

Although, the sad truth is that while men and women's toiletries may be created equally, they certainly don't match when it comes to their in-store value. According to U.S. News & World Report, women pay a premium price for products (think razors or shower gel

that are essentially exactly the same as their male counterparts. Talk about unfair.

Considering that many men's products are just as efficient and possibly even cheaper than their feminine equivalents, we can't help but want to cycle a few male toiletries into our routine. So, save a few bucks by either borrowing these awesome products from your guy or purchasing them on your own. Either way, you won't be disappointed.
