Review on πŸͺ’ Astra Platinum Double Edge Safety Razor Blades - 100 Count (1 Pack) - Enhance Your Shaving Experience with Quality Blades by Linda Ballek

Revainrating 1 out of 5

When weighing the cost and quantity of razors

Ensures a close shave without irritation after the first 4-5 shaves. After 5-6 shaves with the same shaving cream, razor burn begins to appear on the neck. Slightly more expensive compared to the Shark, Dorco and Derby but I have found these 3 blades typically only shave 2-3 times before needing replacement. The cost of a shave stays the same all year round because you change your blades more often. Over the last ten years after trying these 4 blades plus Feather and a couple of Gillettes I would rank the Astra as one of the top 2 blades when comparing shaves, accuracy per pass and cost. for shaving. I would also say that cheaper blades are more forgiving of cuts, the Feather and Astra definitely require excellent technique to avoid those cuts and cuts.

Pros
  • There's something in there
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
