    Cheaper? My ass.

    Men’s depilatory cream costs around 30% more here, and it’s the same product, except with a slightly different fragrance.

    Most of the time I buy women’s products because they are both cheaper and of higher quality.

    This, in my case, is true for everything except razor blades.

      Good point, razor blades for thicker hair makes a discernable difference. Luckily, double edged safety razor and a steel handle make this category practically free now

        I have very course facial hair and switching to women’s razors pretty much solved my post-shave irritation problem. In order of quality for my face it goes: men’s disposable razor << safty razor < women’s disposable razor.

          Oh interesting! I’ll have to check it out, thanks 🧔‍♀️ some women’s razors I’ve used in the past had a rather unpleasant glide strip that feels really slimy to me, but that may be a technological advantage haha
