Shopping for new blades for my old razor I realized that the gel used on the blades could not be vegan. I didn’t want to check online if they were vegan and as I realized that the blades for my old razor cost about the same as a saftey razor + 5 blades, I bought the safety razor.
Like it so far, was a little concerened to cut myself but slow and steady wins the raze (haha, get it…?) It leaves a tiny, tiny stubble, but maybe that is just me getting used to the new razor. What I like is that it is much easier to clean, since you can remove the blade and rinse it off or even disinfect it. Should I disinfect my blade? Dullsters on the internet, what is your wisdom?


Dunno, I do use a (separate) DE razor for that, but it’s a razor that is quite different in its effect, i.e. I didn’t like how it worked for facial hair, but it was great for body hair. In my case it’s a Chinese knock-off of Mercur Futur 700, ironically the latter I also tried and liked less than the knock-off
