Ergonomic Design: The handle is designed to fit comfortably in a woman's hand, often with a soft-grip gel or rubberized texture, to provide a secure grip and excellent control, even when wet.

Compatibility: A significant advantage of the Venus system is its cross-compatibility. The L-Smooth handle is designed to work with all Venus blade refills (with the exception of Simply Venus and Venus for Pubic Hair). This means you can use a variety of Venus blades, from the basic 3-blade Smooth to the advanced 5-blade Extra Smooth or ComfortGlide, on the same handle.

Pivoting Head: The handle is designed to work with a blade cartridge that has a pivoting head. This allows the razor to adjust to the curves and contours of your body, such as knees and ankles, for a closer and more consistent shave.

Included Blades: When sold as a "starter pack," the L-Smooth handle often comes with two or more blade cartridges. These are typically the Venus Smooth blade refills, which feature three blades and a lubrication strip.
