Schick or Bic razors and Schick Edge shaving gel. They aren’t locked up at the store that I know of and all work just fine.

I’ll miss the Old Spice for a bit but I’ll get over it.

This ad campaign is a stupid move.

Bic?!

I tried that 40 years ago and they failed in a one on one test against the edge of a well honed Discover Card. Plus, it cut my face.

Worst combination was a Bic razor and Walgreen's "Speed Shave" (no longer made, Thank God), which was like putting that foam styrofoam on your face. It LOOKS like shaving cream, SMELLS like shaving cream, but does not make the shaving any better than using nothing.

I have a tough beard and tender skin. Started using this:

With a brush. Soak brush under hot water, fill shaving mug with hot water, swish brush around and get a good lather and brush onto face, nice hot shave with lots of lather.

BTW, Amazon has a three pack on sale for less than 7 dollars. That will last me for a year.

Upside: No ingrown hairs, fewer nicks, smoother shave, closer shave.

Downside: Forget where I put shaving soap and have to buy more. Comes in, find other soap, now have a lifetime supply.
