		NEW YORK — Gillette (G) announced Thursday its strategy to go after a bigger cut of the women's shaving market this spring, including two new products in its successful Venus line and — in an unusual move in personal care products — equality with similar men's products in price.
		Gillette is counting on the promise of a closer shave and the vibrant pink design to help its Venus franchise reclaim its spot as the top women's brand in the $200 million razor business.
		In addition to the new high-tech model, however, Gillette is not ignoring the lowly disposable razor — used by 54% of women in North America.

	Gillette Should Concentrate on Making Razors - James Surowiecki - Slate Magazine
		Gillette also said that profit growth in the rest of the year would be slower than it had previously forecast.
		In an article I wrote last year on the debut of Gillette's new three-bladed razor, the Mach3, I argued that Gillette was uniquely positioned to remain on top, because its razors were the best and most popular razors in the world (a combination I don't think is true of any other product).
		Gillette has extended its domination of the razor market worldwide, and now owns 73 percent of that market, which far from being stagnant is growing at 11 percent a year.

		Gillette made their product such a part of my everyday ritual that the idea of buying anything else has completely faded away....at least until it breaks.
