WASHINGTON – Gillette has recalled Venus Siimply3 disposable razors due to laceration and injury hazards. The recall includes a Daisy 12+1 Venus Simply3 bonus pack, which included one free Venus Simply3 razor.
The company said the recall was caused by a problem during manufacturing that resulted in the misalignment of the blades in the razors, posing a higher risk of cuts during normal use.

More than 114,000 of the recalled razors were sold in the U.S. and Canada from January through May 2019 for between $6 and $10.
Gillette has received one report of a consumer who was cut while using the recalled razor.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled Venus Simply3 razors and contact Gillette to receive a postage-paid return label to return the razors and receive a voucher for a replacement.
The recall involves Venus Simply3 disposable razors. The razors come in pink, purple and yellow colors and were sold in two types of packages: a Venus Simply3 Disposable Razor four-pack and a Daisy 12+1 Venus Simply3 Bonus Pack which included one free Venus Simply3 razor. The 10-digit lot code can be found on the right or left side of the plastic package. The UPC number can be found inside the package adjacent to the bar code.
