I use multiblade with Noxzema as my soap/lather. The blade lasts for two months or more, so I’m not really sure what everyone here is on about with safety razors being cheaper. Yes the cartridges are more expensive but considering how long one lasts me it really doesn’t register. I shave on average five times a week.
I’ve had to throw away cartridges not because they were too dull, which is subjective anyway, but because the plastic swivel thing they have on them broke from wearing out. How do I keep it usable? By thoroughly rinsing it off after I’m done. If there are any hairs anywhere on the razor it’s because they did a very good job hiding themselves. If you rinse it thoroughly it will last a long time, because most of the damage comes from residue left in between the blades that corrode them.
Noxzema isn’t fashionable anymore so it’s also not terribly expensive, and it leaves your face smooth and moisturized after you’re done, automatically. No time at all spent in lathering up some specialty cream, just open the jar and spread it over the beard.
So, a quick smooth shave that’s also cheap. I don’t give it any thought at all.
