Bic, oh Bic what have you done to me? I was once a good looking lad until I decided I would start shaving and naively took it upon myself to use these RMD (Razors of Mass Destruction).
I remember the day of purchase. £0.99 for 5 for the razors in a nice cheap looking bag. I was excited at becoming a man and finally ridding my upper lip of the wisp of ferret hair that had grown slowly over the years.
The surprising fact is that these razors are so bad I cannot understand how the company continue to be profitable with all the competition! - They are still produced today and yes, aside from my first shave I keep a pack in my desk draw in case of emergencies - I will add that they are not for me to use - I'm not a sadist.
The razor is cheap to the touch with the flimsy plastic available in green, orange or white. I opted for the orange - Don't ask why! They contain only one blade and have a strip above that should in theory soothe and moisturise after the blade has removed any facial hair.
As I have said, I used these once. The blade seemed blunt and it meant that to actually shave I had to run the blade over the same area 3-4 times to remove hair that wasn't very thick at all. This caused irritation to my face and brain. I ended up using all 5 razors to shave off the same amount of hair contained on a kittens nut sack.
When the ordeal was over my face felt anything but fresh. Blood was oozing from several spots where the blade has removed flesh.
If you are sadist and/or like the taste/look of a bloodied face by all means use these razors - Personally I'd take the Jesus look before using them again.
Cheap, nasty and brutal.
