  • I should probably do that. Feels like you can scrub your fingers pretty decently after cutting peppers, and there’s still a bit of residual burn when you touch sensitive areas. Maybe it depends on the spice level of the pepper, but I don’t generally go above habs for eating raw, so it’s not like I’m chopping reapers or even ghosts.


  • shaving cream. you think it’s necessary because you use it every time, and if you were to not use it all of a sudden, your face would be shredded

    You shave with just water alone? I’ve done that a couple times in the past and it’s not a pleasant experience, and I’m far from having sensitive skin.


  • Why do people keep saying “once you find something that works”

    Yeah, this kind of thing is what I think subconsciously prevented me from getting a safety razor for years. The wetshave sub on reddit has tons of posts like “I used emu fat extract soap with my hog bristle sterling XCo 9000 brush today after preheating my skin to the optimal 99.4 degree temperature (confirmed with a laser thermometer) and shaved with the jewel-encrusted limited edition sex panther cage free Blade BlasterTM”.

    I’m sure if you have sensitive skin you might need to make certain adjustments, but I got the cheapest safety razor I could find online and a pack of 100 blades for like 10 bucks, and use it exactly like I used those stupid 5 blade ripoffs with no issues at all.
