Hi Guys - I've got a shaving issue, and hope you can help me find the best solution. Since I was a teenager, if I used a razor (including electric razors) more than once, my skin would break out. As the comedian Eddie Izzard put it, I had a "general plague theme" going on during puberty. A dermatologist suggested switching to one-a-day disposables, and that has been my solution ever since. I typically only shaved my face every couple days, and usually went for the cheapest blade-built-into-the-handle non-pivoting head disposables I could find. The few times I've tested reusing razors since then (even recently) have brought about the same negative results.
Fast forward to being sly... razor consumption is up, and the more expensive cartridges do the best job, so I'm not going to compromise on quality. But... it would be great to get more than one shave out of each razor (which would encourage me to shave every day instead of every other day). So, any ideas on what to do to sanitize/sterilize?
* Get a big jar of Barbicide -

* Suck it up and stick to one razor/shave?
* Any alternate ideas?... I'm totally open.
Thanks for checking this out....
