We've all been there: standing in the razor aisle overwhelmed by all the options, wondering why there are so many when, really, they all serve the same purpose. We panic, choose one in our favourite colour, and throw it in our cart. Sound familiar?

Although any razor you buy will do its job of removing hair, each one is, in fact, slightly different. Between functionality, design, and scope of use — from shaving your legs to maneuvering along your bikini line — certain razors may be more effective than others. Helping you determine which one is best for you is where we come in.

To help you find the best razor for your needs and budget, we've rounded up 12 of the top options on the market. Keep reading to see and shop them all, including top-reviewed favourites, eco-friendly designs, and buzzworthy brands you've probably seen on Instagram.

Best Multipurpose Razor

Your old razor worked hard, but the Schick Hydro Silk 5 TrimStyle Women's Razor ($13) works harder — and smarter. The double-sided design includes a five-blade razor on one end, and a waterproof bikini trimmer on the other.
