That is the champagne-colored Lady Gillette. It has a very similar head to the SS and comes in four colors. The one pictured, light blue, dark blue and the ever coveted pink.

ohh, I should have known it was a lady gillette. Just saw it and was curious, thank you
No problem.
Far more common in light blue.
Sorry, I am not trying to hijack this thread, but, does anyone "gentleman" ever use one of these to shave with. I assume it would be a very mild shave. I like the long handle.
I have tried it once. It did seem to be a fairly mild shave.
Yeah, they are not bad. Mild, like a regular Super Speed.
And I think there were only 3 colors, not 4; many of the light blue handles appear to have faded from dark blue. If you look at the color of the stars on the light/dark blue razors they are the same color.
Mr. Razor or Guido might have more info on colors.

I use mine once in a while -- typically mild SS shave, but the longer handle is nice.
If these seem too "girly" for you, you can always get a Knack.

Or paint it matte black.
Hard to say. For me it looks like 4 different colors. Maybe the light blue is a faded dark blue:

I thought the light blue definitely looked like a separate color, but I could be wrong.
Heck, I'd use a pink one if it gave me a reasonable shave. Its just a shade of color people 
Put some purple and silly triangles all over it and it won't change who I am as a person.

Custom title alert!
Here's another little tidbit. Apparently some models came with unpolished aluminum doors as you see with the razor on the left.
Holy cow. Is there no end to this madness?
I see, that on your "light blue" the stars are without blue color like mine
That's correct, and I think there were actually 3 blues -- a silvery blue, a light baby blue, and the darker blue.
