I moisten my 3-day beard and press the shaving gel dispensers, so I take a makadamiagroße amount of gel and put some cream on the beard. I will start immediately with my old Philishave (one of the first models with freshly renewed razor). I have run several circular movements in the same places, because not all hairs are removed immediately (there have sporadically placed hair on the side). The house Tellen that are dry, moisten I am water and, if necessary. With some gel after. The razor I sink in between, so that the blades are free again.
No annoying cuts or skin irritation (especially in problem areas), no pre-shave product necessary. The skin feels by the money as a baby on. After shaving I use a standard after-shave.
I also had a "MILL - Classic Safety Razor" for travel. However, I have never managed to finish it all without bloodshed. I am therefore glad that I bought new blades for my old Philishave Electric Shaver (with extended life battery) (cost around 20-30 EUR).
Conclusion: for those who want to save a bloodbath and precious time while shaving, I recommend the shave gel in combination with an electric razor very. Often you can also known auction platforms such razor bid very low (is important for a long battery life!). Cheap razor often have bad batteries.
