    Need to do a shave test! Interesting test but my Cornerstone lasts for about 10 shaves before needing to be changed. If you have to change the Lidl razor every 4 shaves then there is no benefit. I actually keep delaying my subscription because the Cornerstone blades last that long, plus you get a colour personalized razor FOC when you join. Only occasionally do own brands beat the manufacturers quality because it`s not their interest to produce a better quality product for less money.

    A few days ago I tried a cheap 2 blade razor from a Dutch pharmacy/chemist that they sell under their own brand. They cost a little under 5 euros and that is for a handle with 25 cartridges, Aldi also sells them over here under a different brand but with 20 cartridges. They’re made in Vietnam and look a lot like the original Sensor and they shave pretty damn well for me. I’ve come to the conclusion that everything with more than 2 blades is a no go and that cheap razors can be just as good as the expensive ones. I’ve no clue about the longevity of them because at that price I just won’t bother risking irritation.

    Here in the Netherlands Aldi sells disposable 2 blade razors with pivoting head, they’re called Delta 2 by biocura. They cost €2 for a pack of ten, bought a whole box of them because I like them so much. Great for both head and face shaving(for me at least). For what they cost you should definitely try them out imo. Edit: What’s also good about them is that they don’t clog easily so they work well with even a week’s growth.

    This same container of foam was recently updated with the new chartreuse plastic wrapper on the top. I tried for a half hour, with my finger nail and also with a pointed knife. I could not get the damn wrapper off. The previous design worked fine, but not this new one. It needs to be redesigned after they fire the stupid engineer that created this finger-cutting wrapper. Great expanding, silky smooth foam. But be careful trying to unwrap it.

    Great review! Since I recently found out about this, it's my go-to razor. Now I am considering getting the non-disposable skinguard cartridge razor. What do you think though? How do those disposable skinguard razors fare compared to the skinguard cartridge system? Is the extra cost of the replacement cartridges worth the upgrade or should I just stick with the disposable skinguard razors, which happen to be available everywhere here in Greece?

    • @GeekOfShaves
      @GeekOfShaves 5 місяців тому

      The two razora are accctually very different because of the actuators and moment of pivot being different and also the cartridge head version is much larger which reduces pressure. I like them both, but I do prefer the cartridge system and I actually think it could potentially be my favourite out of all systems. Thing is it works really well on a couple of days growth, compared to say the Hydro5. But the Hydro 5 has anti skin roll bars on each blade that I find are amazing, so if I shave daily I them prefer this as the hair is not as long. Literally I prefer different razors depending on how long between shaves it's been

      @@GeekOfShaves If sometime you're in the mood for it, I would love to see a showdown review between these 2! There's no comparison like that out there so you'll be pretty much the only one who does it. Plus, I think it's the only series that Gillette has in both cartridge system and disposable razors so I think it would be quite interesting to see how they fare against each other : )

    @davorburaz4821 6 місяців тому

    Good video, but let's be honest here. Your DE technique needs some work, the strokes are long with too much pressure, I was actually waiting in fear for the first nick. It goes to show the real difference between cartridge and DE shaving. Second, it's not an adjustable razor, so that was another scary moment. Third, the lather needed more water to keep it more slick IMO. But, having said all that, kudos for being honest and doing the video without editing. The main issue is taking more time and attention with a DE razor. Have fun and keep safe🪒🙂

  • @stewartmiddleton4527
    @stewartmiddleton4527 6 місяців тому

    Great to see another of your videos! Welcome back. You're doing well there (at DE shaving). I made the change from cartridge to DE blades back in 2021 (so fairly recently). I tried with that same razor + blades, and promptly cut my face to bits! I then put everything back in a drawer, then tried again (more slowly) after a few months. I now regularly shave with DE razor, blades etc. I still have a stock of cartridge blades, so every so often use them as well - also for traveling, holidays etc. So now, I use a mix of both - mostly carts during the week (for a quick shave) and DE blades at the weekend, when there is more time to indulge yourself. 😉
