The Schick Intuition Pure Nourishment is unique in that it focuses more on special features than anything else in our test suite. The thick head practically has a small bar of soap on it — just add water, and you're good to go. The soap is very slick and smooth, allowing for the head to glide over any obstacle with ease. Despite the handle's bulk and thickness, it's actually quite ergonomic, and we found it comfortable in hand. You're able to grab it with more than just your fingertips, which offers extra contact and grip. The blades are placed inside the soap, and they hinge separately from it. The soap block itself hinges as well, allowing for a close shave once the soap has withered a little. This set also comes with a case to help protect the soapy border from melting away in your moist shower. We tested a fun Hello Kitty version. 
Our major issue with the Schick Intuition is that the soap bar is so robust that it sometimes gets in the way of a close shave. However, this is very short-lived. After a few swipes of the leg, the head is able to sit flush with the surrounding soap, offering an efficient and lathered shave. However, since the soap surrounds the blades, it is difficult to run water behind them to clear out clogged hair. The head is also a little bulky, so tight corners will need to be opened up a bit in order to shave. Just like our other bulky headed options, this is an easy issue to fix by lifting a leg or straightening a knee. That being said, if you are particularly inflexible, you may want to look for something with a smaller head and opt for some shaving cream. While we love the thick handle, it could also use a little more grip. The top of the handle is devoid of rubber, and the plastic gets slippery. Those things aside, the Intuition is a great choice for anyone who wants to forego the shaving cream.
