Been a cartridge guy since the 70s when I first started shaving. Last ten years have used Dorco blades for cost saving but they’ve been getting harder to find, so switched to Supply 2.0. WOW! Went all in with soap, brush, everything. Kinda pissed that here I am at 63 years old and no one ever really taught me how to shave, thanks Dad. It’s a whole new experience now. Love it. Looking forward to trying out different razors down the road but for now, glad I’ve started with Supply.

[@camgarner8919]

I switched to “non cartridge” shaving about 2-3 months ago and haven’t looked back. I suffered from ingrown hairs and had no idea that they could be fixed by using DE razors. Now it’s become a hobby. This will definitely be added to the collection. Love this channel!

[@slisyd]

And what a great hobby it is

[@Diver6127]

Better than cart razors any day, I can guarantee that!

[@whoisthis4130]

I use to have the same issue. No matter what product I used I would have razor bumps everywhere. Once I changed to DE safety razors it went away 100%. I don’t get ANY ingrown hairs now or razor burn.

[@rorynolan2322]

I'm 1/2 weeks in and on a cheap double edged safety blade razor from Amazon I will also never go back, I'm unlikely to turn this into a hobby I just want as little fuss as possible. Iv always found if I leave my hair any longer than 2/3 days I know I'm going to have a rough time with anything electric or cartridges iv ever used until I used a single blade. Now I know how good even a cheap low investment to see if I like it I'll probably look to buy something a little nicer.

Supply was the razor that got me back into wet shaving after rocking a beard for a year. Great experience except for my lip area. Maybe it’s the angle of the head but I would cut myself when shaving the lip which I never do when using my ambassador.

Love my Supply razor. Have the polished alloy one. Was sold on its quality straight away. I use all three plates, in the corresponding passes. No gimmicks or hype. Love that I can manually load the blade, as my preferred method. Customer service is tops, and they deserve the recognition and backing they received.

[@jimedwards2079]

I was glad to see this video. Some time ago, I purchased this razor. After my first shave with it my face looked like it had been attached by a mad man with a hatchet. I was never able to get a good shave with the razor. I returned it to the manufacturer with no problem whatsoever. They are a very good company and really stand behind their products. I just couldn't make it work. I've been very happy with my safety razor experience but just couldn't get the hand of this one. Based on your review, it was obviously user error on my part! Thanks for the review.

Unrelated comment, just wanted to say thank you to Razor Emporium. Just got my 1956 Super Speed back from its revamp service. Bought it from an antique dealer for $6, needless to say, it was in rough shape. Now it looks so good I don’t know whether to use it or preserve it. Amazing work!!

[@k2rig]

My very first wet shaving razor was the Supply 2.0, I thought it just looked awesome. I started with the sensitive #1, but now shave with the comfortable or #2 guard. The Supply 2.0 gives you a great shave and is a solid razor. My only complaint is there are very few injector blade manufactures on the market today. I ended up buying a DE razor because of the tremendous selection of DE blades. DE blades are also much cheaper. I bought 100 Voskhod for $8 or 8 cents a blade, where the supply blades are 68 - 75 cents each, I can even buy Feather blades in bulk for about 34 cents each. Still compaired to cartridge razors the Supply 2.0 is a bargain, and gives a buch better shave.

[@davidvalens3337]

Maybe you could use the de razor for some places on hour face and the supply one for sensitive parts. That could be a great strategy

[@Diver6127]

You can buy the Schick injector off Amazon too

[@baldwincooke5316]

Injector blades last longer than DE blades. YMMV. You do the math.

[@sourkraudy]

I have the supply in glossy black, love it so far its been about a month and a half and I use the medium setting and it works well for me. I shave 3 sometimes 4 times a week for work.

[@GSutton]

Okay - you sold me. I'm going to try it out. Your confidence around your earlobes gave me anxiety, but not a single nick! The skill level! I've never tried out a new style and not nicked where the lobe meets the neck. This video is assuaging those fears. Thank you!

[@rayman1951]

Have had mine for about a year. I use the second setting. Very nice shave. Easy to maintain. I alternate with this and my Merkur 38C.

[@mikeoreilly4020]

I think I've watched 3 videos now where you are trying to shave your incredibly heavy beard with 15 day growth. WHY? Just take electric clippers and get it down to a reasonable stubble and then shave. I don't think most razors, be they single or double-edged are made to cut through your jungle of a beard.

[@mikevigil3677]

My beard is at least as dense as his and I use my shavette and it comes off in one pass, this thing he's using takes multiple passes which equals irritation ouch, I'll stick with my shavette.

[@markbroad119]

When my beard grows to 1/2" it's all about the Norelco One Blade. 3/4" and longer clippers, then one blade and maybe razor

[@rkbeall]

The Supply is definitely in my top 3 daily shavers. If I haven't shaved for 3 or 4 days, I'll use the most aggressive plate, otherwise I find the middle plate the most comfortable. I find I can get 7 or 8 shaves from a blade before having to change (as opposed to my de's which only give 2 or 3). Plus, it just feels solid in the hand.

[@davidkaplan5517]

Mine didn’t come with multiple options in the box like that. Do you know what the little circle ring is to spin and what that does?

[@brandonh4527]

@@davidkaplan5517 Based on the timeframe of your comment, I would assume you either got the Supply SE which looks like it has a come on the bottom of it, or the Supply Pro that has an adjustment dial. The SE doesn't have any options to swap out anymore. I believe it is supposed to be about as aggressive as the 'comfortable' setting (2 dots) from the original design.

[@davidkaplan5517]

@@davidkaplan5517 I hear ya, I just got the SE to try. I already had the previous 2.0 version which I really like, but so far, I am not impressed with the SE version. I'm betting it was just a user error on my part. I'm hoping that it ends up being good though. I hate cartridge razors though. I went from the Gillette Fusion to the Supply, to straight razor. Ever since I switched from the cartridge razor and I will never switch back. The cartridge razor was expensive and a very uncomfortable experience.

As a lady I LOVE my supply razor and think it’s a damn shame that it’s not more popular. However, it takes a long time to get good technique down and as a lady it is harder to shave my legs with this than a conventional 5 blade razor. You have to be very careful and it’s easy to have a bloody leg if you don’t have an extremely light hand. I’m still perfecting the technique but get better and better each time.

Great video, I really like my supply razor. I am still blown away at how much of a difference cold water shaving has made for me. I think back to the different blades and razors I've used in the past that caused irritation, and wonder if that was because I was always told to use warm water.

I've had my SS Supply for 3 years now. The 3 dot plate and using Schick blades are the best. Either the easy to find Chinese Schick blades, or the Proline Schick blades from Japan. Personna blades are too mild for me.

Its refreshing to see more options and innovation now hitting the mainstream. At a buck a blade with a single edge, you will need to switch out blades quite often. How does it perform with a feather blade with 2 week growth?

[@anderslarsson8182]

I love the Supply razor. I have 3 of them, each one with different settings. Use the mildest one for the first pass, and then step up to the middle, and finishes with the most aggressive for the finishing touch. And then on my head with the mildest, and a second finishing touch with the middle aggressive. I am Injector fan, with a fine collection of vintage Schick Injectors, and even the Pal stainless adjustable Injector. All of them are great, but I love the Supply most.

I’m a big fan of your Razors for design, different geometries, quality, and price. For single edged razors I and my son are particularly fond of Eco and the Hawks - especially V2 Aluminum. For DE I love the BBS and the Baby Smooth. They are kind to my face and neck and yet remove beard reasonably efficiently. Just work for me! The increased flex on the blade works as advertised and I find the head beautiful in shape as well.

@@pipebliss you’re welcome and I’ll add another: BC Silvertip brush is my “go to” for myself and as gifts in starter kits for new wet shavers for “at home” brush. It works excellently, looks great, and is very fairly priced. Btw, I was in the past lead scientific advisor to a company in Toronto: Sentinelle Medical before it was acquired by Hologic. I’m a breast MRI expert and also do breast and lymph node intervention. It is the latter that gives me appreciation for sharp, well-designed tools of the proper mass - I.e. heavy enough to preload proprioceptors and yet not so heavy as to be difficult or tiring to hold and use. So my dream razor would be a BBS in Titanium - not holding my breath but just sayin’. . . Thanks again!

[@Perfectly_Balanced930]

I purchased this razor. My experience hasn’t been very good. The blade doesn’t stay fixed in the head even after following directions on loading the blade, making sure everything is tight and checking the blade reveal. On one pass the blade slipped out of the head. Good thing I noticed it before my next pass. Customer service from razor has been responsive and provided me with a new razor. Unfortunately the I’ve had the same experience with the second razor. Customer service has been great. Maybe I just got a bad batch. I’ll revise this after speaking with customer service again.

I have the Supply V2, and it's acceptable. I really prefer a DE safety razor, as it's easier to just keep going, without all the more frequent rinsings. I basically use the Rockwell Model T the most, but I am looking to invest in the REX Ambassador soon.

I would love to see you review/try the new Supply SE razor with those new black label blades from Japan.

The new SE razor is nice and the blades are impressive and light and left me little to no cuts, 10/10 personally. I was like you with genuine enthusiasm with a nice , simple and fun shave from it. So my fingers are crossed you enjoy this new.

[@robertb.4202]

I have been keeping an eye on Supply since 2019. I was going to go with their razor, but went with a cheaper DE razor instead. I just didn’t want to spend the money, at the time. Now, that they added a nick guard, I wasted no time preordering it! I have seen too many positive reviews to pass up the chance to get one. I have both DE and SE razors. I actually prefer SE as I feel I a get a better shave. Some DE blades can be too flimsy for my tastes. A solid SE blade does the trick. I like Titan Milds, but I know those won’t work for Supply Razors. I hope their blades work well.

Hey Matt. I’ve used nearly 200 razors. The Supply 2.0 is my absolute favorite. I use only the 3 plate. And if you think it’s great on the face, on the head? It’s spectacular. It’s really the only razor I use for head shaving these days. And the blades are made for Supply by Personna.

[@aaronwalsh7261]

I've had a Supply razor for a few years but I only use it occasionally. When my facial hair is long, (mine grows pretty slow. Matt's 5 o'clock shadow is what I get after 3 days of growth. ;D ) the Supply razor mows through my facial hair beautifully like no razor I have. I don't feel it cutting at all, the hair seems to magically separate from my face. The only thing that prevents it from being my daily driver is that it always leaves a little bit of stubble and doesn't cut very close when I have mostly stubble. I've tried using the aggressive plate, but it leaves a lot of razor burn (normal plate doesn't), and still leaves a bit of stubble in key areas no matter how many different directional passes I do on it. It is less stubble than the normal plate though. (Used both the Personna and Schick blades. I haven't tried the new blades shown in this video.) This was my first injector razor and got me hooked enough to purchase a Shick Model G, which is better for me at cutting closer when my facial hair is shorter. I want to try other injectors as well.

[@Mvendrel]

For dialing in (pun intended) I’d recommend the Schick Adjustable, which if I remember correctly is in the M-type series. I personally like types I, J, M, and N the best. I and J have very similar heads but the handle on the J is longer. They also make Lady Schicks in several series that have the same heads but longer handles in different colors such as yellow. The I-M Types are less harsh in my experience than the Type G while still shaving efficiently and close. Some come in Hydromagic versions that have a small lever that partially releases the spring for better cleaning. It may be my imagination but these seem a tad more aggressive than the ones without this feature. I also slightly prefer the ones that do not spell-out Eversharp on the head. A special mention of the Schick Twin that can be found NOS in a mailing can (!) that was a promotion. These twins shave very smoothly and closely. I do not find the twin blades that are very close together to give me ingrown hairs but I’m not prone to those so some may find differently. The closeness of the twin blades does lead to some clogging of the space between them. In the can are a couple of the twin blades - they last quite well - at least 7-10 3-pass shaves for me. More twin blades can be gotten from Japan via eBay but they are fairly expensive and take a couple of months to get. I think they can be used in the Supply if the screw/spring tension is backed off a bit. Anyone know more about this?

[@zahktuthalxalyrion6364]

I own a Supply razor and actually do really enjoy. I am a double sided razor user and still my favorite go to selection. The supply is a great alternative, but there is a cost difference with the blades. A good double sided blade (20-30 cents/4 shaves)... a Supply injector ( 90 cents a blade/4 shaves)... and can only get blades from SUPPLY. I addition, I like to take my blade out so everything dries properly.. much more of a hassle with SUPPLY. Still... great shave from Supply... I use on the closest shave plate... no issues. I tried there shave cream.... not a fan of it. Post shave treatment us very good product.... light year round scents... nourishing and not greasy. I really enjoy, just not my everyday go to razor.

[@Mvendrel]

Schick blades - either from China or NOS work perfectly in the Supply. In my experience injector blades last for quite a few more shaves than even very good DE blades - probably because they are so much thicker. I find injector blades last for up to 10 shaves even when doing 3-pass. They are similar to AC blades in this respect in my experience.

Sensitive is my daily but when I’m wanting a super close shave for an event or I need it to last a little longer I step it up to comfortable. It’s surprisingly a great razor I bounce between this and my ambassador

[@edofcoke]

I'm also a fan of Shark Tank. As I have gotten older, my beard has began to fill in with the white hair that my Norelco triple head was struggling to cut. I switched to the 5 bladed Gillette reusable handle razor but didn't appreciate the ingrown neck hairs or the ever increasing price. I bought the first Supply stainless handle without the additional settings ultimately having to buy the ultra close one. I tried several boxes of Supply's razors but couldn't trust that the new one was going to be sharper than the one I was discarding so I've switched to the Schick injection blades with the Supply razor. It takes a slight adjustment to switch blades but Schick's consistency is worth it. Before changing to the Supply razor, my face & neck always had shaving bumps but none since. There is a learning curve with the Supply. You can't make the long passes that the flimsy blades allow without sacrifice. I really enjoy shaving now. Supply makes great products too but I've been buying the traditional English brands, Truefitt and Hill being one of my favorites for the past 2-3 years.

[@brandonh4527]

I typically have used the 3 dot the most, sometimes the 2 dot. I think I like it better because it feels closer to home with a straight razor. It would be cool if you guys did a video on the new Supply Pro and SE in comparison to this model.

[@Lew114]

I'm curious about the SE. I had a rough start with DE razors. Lots of cuts and shaving took forever. I tried the Leaf with only 2 blades loaded. I like that I can use any DE blade and break it in half. That fixed the cut issue because of the pivoting head. It was too big to get under my nose though. Then I went back to a regular DE. I have the hang of it enough that I have very few cuts now, but it still takes longer because I have to be careful. I'd love a single edged razor that took commodity blades, pivoted so I wouldn't get cut, and was small enough to fit under my nose. Maybe the Supply SE is it.

[@brandonh4527]

@@Lew114 if you want to stick with DE blades, it sounds like you should give High Proof Razors a try. That’s been my daily razor for a while now. You get a very acceptably close cut with 2 passes and it’s comfortable. The head pivots and takes 1/2 DE blade. I bought and tried the supply SE. It’s probably good for the more novice, but the original isn’t hard l, just takes a little time to get used to. I think the 2 dot regular setting is the best all around as far as supply goes. If you get the SE, order the 2 and 3 dot settings with it and see what you like. Work up to the 3 dot so you don’t skin yourself.

[@lew708]

So, I didn’t realize that these blades were smaller than Artisan Single edge blades. I purchased a crap load of their Black Label blades and saw there’s no way it would fit my ATT S1 so, I just ended up purchasing a Supply Single edge…It does give a pretty nice shave.

[@johnjanzen5856]

Injectors have intrigued me for a while. I’m going to have to check this out!

[@vapingcur9960]

I just ordered this razor the other day. Love the review. I have hopes for it.

[@Theonenonlyavery]

For someone that's used it, does it annoy you swapping out pieces? Why wouldn't you want a close shave all the time? I've only used a Merkur 23c long handle.

[@walterreed5849]

if anyone sees this, i just ordered mine and i’m very curious about how the ultra close shave works cuz i want my shave to look as though there weren’t follicles too begin with once i’m finished does it come to that degree? and it’s okay to go against the grain?

[@billm.2677]

Great shave Matt. You look presentable now 😉. I only have the 2 dot plate and like it. You should get ahold of some Schick Proline blades, they are a big improvement over good already.

[@shawncameron296]

My second favorite razor, right behind my ambassador of course. I only shave twice a week, cause I'm lazy, and I use the aggressive plate.

[@tattooedshaver5919]

I really enjoyed this video, thank you!

[@paulbenson1610]

I have a ss Supply along with the Parker adjustable and. M3 adjustable. My favourite is the vintage Schick M3. Wonderful shave. I find the Supply misses growth and gives me irritation in buffing to get rid.

[@coffeebux]

I got the supply se a month ago. Was a lot like my first time having sex, no idea what I was doing and it was over way too quickly and my first thought was ok this is stupid! Then I learned how to get the surface wet and ready, position my hand, take my time and let the weight of the tool do the work And now each shave is very satisfying

[@omfgihopethisworks]

I use the No.2 plate (Comfortable) with schick proline blades and it always gives a great shave.

[@Mvendrel]

Try one of the Schick dial adjustable razors and I think you’ll like it. It’s pressed metal with plastic handle and lightweight but it shaves very well and can be adjusted on the fly. The Persona blades like those in Supply, the Schick blades from China, or NOS Schick all work well for me - slight nod to NOS. I prefer the aluminum injectors for reasons of not making plastic waste.

[@Mvendrel]

I have a Supply in addition to a mini collection of vintage Schicks and I shaved with Schicks starting at age 14 - I’m 69 now. Because I’m a daily shaver I prefer the milder shavers. For Supply I prefer the 1 dot plate. For vintage: I, J, L, or M, including the adjustable. I have shaved with DE too over last year. There too I prefer milder razors - RazoRock BBS and FatBoy up to 5 are personal favorites. I’ve not yet used an Ambassador but want to. Since I used Schicks for so many years I don’t mind aluminum razors. The RazoRock Baby Smooth is an AL version of the BBS (which is SS) and my favorite AL razor. I also like the Gillette Slim for a lighter weight DE. If I have to travel with carryon my fall back is a NOS aluminum handle Atra with Vector carts from India. I can survive twin blades while traveling but don’t like more than 2 blades in a cartridge. (The Schick twin is a pretty good razor too but blades if new have to be ordered from Japan.)

[@Mvendrel]

I left off Rockwell 6S from my favs list. I prefer it with 2, 3, or 4 plates depending on whether I’ve skipped a day or two of shaving. I’ve the same preferences and reasons for adjustable “on the fly” as you do but the Rockwell is easier to change than the Supply. Or if one is a razor collector as I am can use 2 at once ;-) (I like two-tone razors so I have a black and red 6S with baseplates switched.) I gift a lot of razors to others sharing my hobby. I wish Rockwell used a 2-4 plate in their 2C and then I’d have my go-to affordable first/starter DE for my gift recipients as the 1-3 plate is almost a waste for the “1” side as presently configured.

[@JohnHartConductor]

I do enjoy my Supply 2.0, but I wish I had waited until a week later to buy, as they came out with the sexier copper alloy finish a week later. Oh well. Still works great. I often use it as a cleanup razor after a couple straight razor passes, as I’m still very new to that and don’t push myself too fast.

[@glennpenzone145]

What would you suggest. The supply prob or the Henson AL13?

[@RazorEmporium]

Either

[@emhezmfe]

Just received my Supply SE. I don't know if the Schick injector will be better, but I'm not digging the "Supplied" cartridge that comes with. It has taken multiple attempts to load a blade. Should be effortless. Guess I'll go out and buy a Schick injector and see if it's better. Sure hope so, otherwise this thing is going back.

[@growleym504]

Nice vid, though it was a bit long. Very nice looking razor. I like injectors and lately on the rare occasion I use other than a straight razor, I am using either a shavette or a Schick type G I picked up on fleabay for $10 or so. I also have a type E somewhere, and a ladies' model which is nice for several days growth because it clears easily, and a couple of repeaters. The Chinese Schick blades are pretty good and not too expensive, and still come in an injector pack with a metal key. An injector razor normally does ship with a blade, or at least a dummy blade, in the razor. You don't want to inject a blade into an empty razor because you can damage the blade edge. You want the new blade to push the old one out. When you changed guards you removed the old blade and you should leave it in place, and if you want to change blades then use the injector to do it. Your blade and your face will thank you. If circumstances require you to inject a blade into an empty razor, you might want to right away before shaving with it, use the injector pack to inject yet another blade and discard the first one.

[@JackpotJoey.]

Hey Matt I’ve been trying to use this I normally shop at the store in Phx. I’ve been using the supply co for a couple days now and when I shave i feel like it’s not shaving at all. I’ve tried a billion angles and when I use it I can hear it but it’s not giving me a close shave. I’m considering buying the leaf shaver from you guys any tips?

[@neighbortim]

Very nice. I’ve tried a few injectors over the years, and always found them a little rough. Generally I like a mild razor with a sharp, coated blade. Just recently I picked up one of the Parker adjustable injectors, and have been very happy with it. It adjust from 1-5, and I usually use it at a 3 for a wonderful close shave. For comparison my other favorite adjustable, the Ambassador, I usually use on a 2-3. I do sometimes change settings mid-shave, so I probably won’t try this one. I’m curious about the blades though, do you think the Supply blades are different, or is it just Personna in a different syringe?

[@Mvendrel]

They are Personna blades in a plastic injector/key. Parker distributes Personna blades as well in what to me looks like a part metal - part plastic injector. I’ve not tried their razor yet though. Taconic also distributes Personna blades in an injector. The Personna blades have some variation in quality in my experience and also by reputation - even admitted by Supply and I understand they are in the process of setting up their own blade production in Japan. Can get injector blades by Schick from China and while some have reported quality issues with those too my experience has been better. There are Schick blades made in Japan as well. The only ones I’ve tried are the Twin Schick blades and they are great if you have an injector razor that will take them as I do. However, these twin injector blades are expensive (even though they last a long time) but also take about 2 months to get from Japan via eBay. My favorite Schick blades are NOS Schick Plus Platinum Teflon Coated that I get through eBay. Injector comes in 7 blade and 15 blade versions and is aluminum with built-in blade bank. These were made in USA. Japanese have always been big users of Injector razors. In fact Artist Club blades are popular there (like a regular injector blade only longer) and Feather, Kai, and Schick of Japan make great AC blades. These are for shavettes mostly but there are some 3-piece safety razors that use them. My son’s favorite razor is a RazoRock aluminum Hawk (V2) with a Kai Pink blade but the Schick and Feather AC blades are good too. The RazoRock Hawk also comes in versions 1 and 3 that are stainless steel.

[@nate4shave]

Great review Matt I have had one and it’s not my favorite but not bad at all

[@robinhoodshavingartisans2891]

I tried to use the Supply razor but the blade would never stay locked into the razor. The blade would shift to the left or the right and I wound up cutting myself. Second, I found that you had to completely disassemble the razor in order to clean it. I even tried different blades but it made no difference. I called Supply and informed them of the problem. To my surprise, they were aware of the problem but left it at that. Even though I had the razor for over one year, I asked for a return of my funds. I sent the razor back and did get my refund. I have hundreds of razors and this was the first razor I ever returned.

[@jpgc83]

I use comfortable setting... im learning and getting accustom to wet shaving. And im saving some bucks to get an ambassador rex.

[@MrDinborn]

Beautiful razor and, as usual, an entertaining and informative video. Matt is really a social talker without being uninteresting ;) Now i have to buy one of these razors and use it when Im in a "steampunk" mood ;)

[@AlitaAvenger]

Enjoyed watching this video very much. Thank you!

[@Perfectly_Balanced930]

I tried using a Schick injector razor blade with this razor and somehow ended up with rows of beard not being shaved after each pass. Did I do something wrong or does this razor not use any other blade other than Supply razor blades?

[@greatsoutherntrendkill79]

I shave with cartridge razors but I don’t use water or any shave cream. My question is are double or single razors good for dry shaving? I use an electric trimmer to shorten the hairs then I use the cartridge razor. Works great for me. No rash or ingrown hairs but the damn things are too expensive considering I use one maybe 3 times then toss it.

[@pianofry1138]

That would really be irritating to my skin but I can't imagine it's any different cartridge to DE. Actually with the right razor you might be better off because they'll be sharper than a cartridge.

[@aficio63]

Is this a better way to introduce razor shaving after using disposables forever, as opposed to a safety double edged razor?

[@RazorEmporium]

maybe the Leaf brand?

[@Diver6127]

love my supply, I am impatiently waiting for their revamped adjustable offering in february. But for now, I use and love setting 3 for the most efficient setting, shaving every other day. BTW, I did order the new schick adjustable injector off amazon but had to return it for an exchange. It was difficult to load and I almost broke it so back it went. I would love to see you do a review on it. The Parker adjustable sits in my cabinet. Not worth the purchase. Big disappointment

[@noahokas6520]

I’m having trouble deciding whether I should go with a single edged or a double edged safety razor. So I’m curious how close this shave is compared to DE, and which would be better for shaving with acne.

[@RazorEmporium]

Won't know till you try. I think either would be good - more importantly is the skin care products and your routine. Look at proraso white or our sensitive skin kit.

[@skythemouse8855]

I would love to see a day when cartridges are no longer around
